My Confucianism
Wednesday, April 30th, 2008
The main points of Daxue are 1. Self cultivation, 2. Regulate family, 3. Cure country and 4. Bring world peace. By using the first 3, I drew the image on the left to highlight the importance of the trinity in each group. Whether it is self, family or country, the head of the group is the leader. His good or bad behavior brings good or bad fortune to the 2 below.
So in family, the father is the head. Mother should play second role to the husband and not to overide his authority or the balance in the family will be disturbed. Now you see more and more women getting richer and powerful and in return the world is getting upset down.
For country, I advocate an appointed president without political power. He should be a man, married with at least a son. No son means something is wrong in his family. His main duty is to meditate and eat vegetarian food. That is self cultivation, so his spirituality will uplift the country into a higher plane without the citizens doing anything for self cultivation.
Self cultivation in self is to make you more spiritual. Cultivation in family will influence the fsmily members, even they oppose you. Cultivation in village, your influence will make your village more hospitable. Cultivating in country will increase prosperity but cannot erase tragedy. Only when the man is appointed as president of the country then he can prevent tragdy to happen.
So right now I cultivate I can influence all Singaporeans but I cannot prevent any mishap that might happen. It is only after I am appointed the president of Singapore that I can prevent all disasters that are pending to strike.
After reading an article about 
If you compare the above with Hebrews chapter 9 verse 1 to 5, which I paint as the image on the left. The inner Holiest of the Holy in Jewish temple is the same or the Tablenacle as seen by Moses. The cheribum represent our eye-brows, the 2 tablets represent our 2 eyes, the Aaron’s rod, our nose and the jar of manna represents our mouth with teeth.
To see clearly, compare with image of our eyes on the left. To pinpoint the Mark, consider Quran’s often repeated verse: ‘Garden of Eden, underneath which rivers flow.’ Rivers flow are our tears. So the nose bridge in between the 2 eyes is the SEAT of God or our Spiritual Soul.
The VOID is the Mark on our forehead in between, at the nose bridge. It has to be Sealed. Presently only the Heavenly Way group or I-Kuan Tao can do this. Refer Revelation chapter 7 for the Sealing. The 144,000 Jews are indicating all human beings. New Testament was written for Christians not Jews so the words casnnot be interpreted as they are.
1. Eyes looking or gazing at own nose tip.
For beginners, put palms together and place indexes at nose tip. So you can see image as on the left. This is only a guide. Once you get use to it, put hands on your lap as above image. Duration of meditation can be 5 minutes to 2 hours. This is up to you. At the start, some might experience giddiness. This is a test. You have to endure till it disappear after a while.
