Xue Feng

There are eight kinds of people that I admire in the human world.

1. People without debts
I admire you deeply if you don’t owe anybody any money or property, or have not borrowed any money from the bank and yet can entertain yourself with good food every day, have a house to live in, at night you raise your head to appreciate the stars and moon, during the day you look casually at the clouds drifting, gathering and scattering in the sky, and go sightseeing or visit friends and relatives during spare time. You are leading a life of celestial beings. It does not matter if you do not have villa or expensive car, do not have deposits in the bank, cannot afford famous brand clothes and shoes, do not have great fame or position, cannot afford the meals in a hotel, and cannot prepare any decent dishes to entertain guests. I admire you as long as you are calm and serene in mind. Do you know that there are many people who are still worried about and on the run for their livelihood?

2. People with good health
You are blessed, because a good and sound health is something that cannot be bought even with mountains of silver and gold. You have had all the treasures endowed to you by heaven. Just have a look at those handicapped and diseased people and have a look at yourself, and you will understand how blessed you are. And they will admire you most.

3. People who are not married
You have the greatest freedom among people on the earth. You can look at anyone you want, you can get up any time you like, you can give your money to anyone you would like to give. There is no one to supervise you, restrict you and be on guard against you. What a good fate you are born with! Just take a look at those who have got married. Don’t be fooled by their smiling faces, inwardly they are extremely distressed. Thus I admire you greatly!

4. People who do not admire others
You are extremely great and wise to admire nobody. Most of people’s distresses are rooted in their inclination to make comparisons with others. If you don’t admire others, then I should tell you, you are a man with the wisdom of celestial beings. It is the happiest thing to get on with you. You are being yourself, going your own way, blossoming your own flowers, bearing your own fruit, and living by modeling after nature. You understand the way of the Greatest Creator. Thus you are most admired.

5. People with confidantes
I admire you greatly. Your life is full of fun and interest. Yin and Yang blend to make up Tao. So you fully understand the meaning of Tao. You do not intend to possess or control each other and are still attached to each other. You have your love all your life. You have great fun and happiness when being together, and you miss each other day and night when being apart. How well do you understand life and how admired you are!

6. People who know how to be an ordinary person
How many people have idled away their beautiful time of life in seeking the extraordinary! In order to pursue the extraordinary they are overburdened with debts, they go off into wild flights of fancy and go astray in search of shortcuts, they resort to trickery and hoodwinking, they go to the most extreme lengths and even end up in prison. However, you can retain a calm mind for being ordinary and settle down to an ordinary life. You enjoy simple food heartily as if you are enjoying delicacies. You work and rest as the sun rises and sets. You really know what to enjoy. You must have fully understood the philosophy of life, or you must have come from the heavenly kingdom. How admired you are!

7. People who have same-sex bosom friends
In our life it is especially difficult to find a bosom friend, a person whom you can turn to in the middle of night to share your feeling, or someone to whom you can place your trust and share your secrets, or someone who would jump in front of you to block the strike of a cobra, or someone who is still close to you with smiling face even if you have sworn at him or kicked him, or someone who can share weal and woe with you. Oh, how blessed you are and how I admire you.

8. People capable of entertainment
People in the paradise all know how to play and entertain. People who do not know how to play and entertain are dull and boring, and thus have no chance to go to the heavenly kingdom. You are diamond among people if you are both knowledgeable and profoundly wise, and humorous, and can always bring happiness and pleasure to others. To be with you is to be with happiness and joy. To live with you is like living in the heavenly kingdom. How can I help not admiring you!

If you are the incarnation of all the above eight qualities, you are undoubtedly an angel, and I will not only admire you but will also follow you closely.

Face the Reality -ivysunday(Sunday); 2020-10-21 {1668} (#7123@4096)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Face the Reality

Xuefeng

(Translated by Conglong and Edited by Kaer)

Are you suffering? Do you have troubles, worries, and fears?

Do you want to get away from your sufferings and go to a place which provides you with freedom and happiness? If the answer is yes, let me tell you a way which can end your sufferings and lead you to heaven: Face the Reality.

What is "Facing the Reality"?

That is to aware that we are imperfect, all our sufferings are due to imperfections in ourselves. The world is not wrong, but we are wrong. There is not a single soul in the universe that is treated unjustly. We need to be honest with ourselves and face our imperfections. If we are not happy, we must find the reason within, and not complain about other people and society. It is very easy to find excuses for ourselves and condemn others, but if you do so, you sufferings will never end.

One who never admits his imperfections, and always blame others when having troubles and pains will never get real happiness, joy, freedom and blessings, and he will never reach heaven either.

I have witnessed all misfortunes throughout the world and have carefully observed and thought about the sufferings of humanity, I have therefore concluded that the root causes of all tragedies are ourselves. What is even worse is that we are not willing to face the truth and admit that we have flaws. Instead, we complain and point our finger at others. This kind of life is too hypocritical, too unreal, too superficial, and too unfortunate.

Avoid the reality and do not face yourself honestly, your sufferings will never end.

April 22, 2014

Lifechanyuan has been enduring a period of suffering since November, 2013. The three community branches created by Lifechanyuan were disbanded, properties worth twenty-six million Yuan were taken, and 150 people were forced to leave the home. Lifechanyuan suddenly fell from heaven to the earth and it became so weak financially that people are facing tremendous survival challenges. Where is the home for these people and how should we support ourselves? The huge pressure on me affected my breathing, I lost sleep for many nights, my eyes became weak, and my vision became blurred.

But we should survive and we must survive! We migrated to a place several thousand kilometres away and came to the Gobi desert. We drink the bitter and carcinogenic, saline - alkali water, we live in a few run-down houses and we began another round of hard times. We managed to survive, but to remain as civilized people while living in such primitive conditions, we still have many challenges. Each step forward needs money, and in reality, everything seems to us so direct and cruel. Even now, I cannot sleep well and there are many nights when I only sleep three or four hours. There are so many chores waiting for me to sort through and deal with, how can I manage to sleep?

The constitution and laws only maintain slavery, they do not protect human dignity. The society’s morality tends to maintain the brutal, ignorant, and backward consciousness and lifestyle, not the innovative and civilized ones. It is only when human beings experience huge survival crises that they will start to accept new-born ideas and things. Otherwise, the laziness and historical habits will stop them from making great progress and evolution.

Although many challenges lie ahead, my heart is full of gratitude. Gratitude to the Greatest Creator for letting us survive, and gratitude to the children of the Greatest Creator, the Chanyuan celestials, for the selflessness and active efforts they have all given and are continuing to give. Also, gratitude to all the people who comforted and helped us in every possible way during our hardest times.

In the past half year, Chanyuan celestials’ best qualities have been put into full play. Faced with life or death, nobody complained of hardships or backed off. Nobody shouted at me or did reasonless or extreme things. Everyone accepted what happened silently. What we said and did are civilized, our soul gardens are becoming purer and more beautiful. Everything is running in good order. Because of this, our new life erupts.

We still have a long way to go to reach the ideal realm. We will still encounter many kinds of challenges. However, no matter how many difficulties and obstacles we encounter, I hope the children of the Greatest Creator will always be civilized and maintain good behaviour, never hurt Mother Nature, any living beings, society, or any nations. Please keep the purification of your soul garden as the first priority. Do not be selfish, jealous, greedy, arrogant, possessive, or fearful. Let nature take its course. Keep the inner peace and firmly believe in the Greatest Creator and in Karma. Try your best with everything in your daily life and stand to the original intention. Let us continue to climb to the highest states of Life and LIFE！

December 16, 2009

(Translated by Treasure and Edited by Kaer)

Supreme Leader of the Universe:

Allah, Ancestor of Buddha, Greatest Creator, Jehova:

Thank you for creating the unprecedented New Oasis for Life for us: the transfer station from the mortal world to the kingdom of heaven; a copy of the Thousand-year world of heaven on earth; a new mode of life for humanity in future; and the base of self-improvement and self-cultivation for me to be reborn and become a Super Celestial Being. It was through your grace that I was allowed to join the New Oasis for Life; I will cherish this rare opportunity that is difficult to find across thousands of years and will devote all of my body, soul, spirit, and will power to it, and strive to achieve a phoenix nirvana and to accomplish the spiritual state of immortality.

Once starting this journey to the kingdom of heaven, I will proceed without hesitation, never falter, and never stop advancing forward until my ultimate goal is reached. I pray for your constant surveillance, protection, and blessing, and that you will constantly guide me to overcome all difficulties to realize my long-cherished dream.

1. In the New Oasis for Life, I will regard all celestials as family members and overcome jealousy, complaining, fickleness, and hypocrisy; bring my qualities of sincerity, kindness, beauty, love, faith, and honesty into full play; strive to bring joy, happiness, freedom, and blessings to all my beloved relatives in our homeland; never argue, compete, rob, or fight for anything; and be the first to bear hardship but the last to enjoy fruition. My thoughts will match my words and my words and deeds will be consistent.

2. In the New Oasis for Life, I will work hard every day and never shirk my duty or get slack, will not blunder or be crazy, will not compare myself to others or fuss with them, will keep dedication first and comfort last, will strive for first-class perfection in everything, will lead a thrifty and simple life with neither waste nor extravagance, and will avoid greed, grumbling, and complaining.

3. In the New Oasis for Life, I will gradually achieve the state of possessing nothing, dedicating everything to the Oasis, which is the most magnificent career of humanity, regarding the Oasis as my LIFE, and as all that I have, and will align my greatest ideals and wishes to those of the Oasis. I will strive to make the Oasis more and more perfect and to prosper gradually with my efforts.

4. In the New Oasis for Life, I will blend my individuality into commonness, endeavor to conquer and abandon my idiosyncrasies and bad hobbies that contradict the commonness of the oasis and reject them all, but keep and develop my individuality that is consistent with the commonness of the oasis; I will be an exotic and distinctive flower in the garden of the oasis, sending out my own unique fragrance.

5. In the New Oasis for Life, I will maintain the "800 Values for New Era Human Beings" and devote myself to a new life with new values, a new outlook on life and LIFE, and a new world view; abandon old ideas, accept new ones, improve myself as a new human being, act from my own behavior and do my little bit to help, and dedicate selflessly for the whole of humanity entering into the Lifechanyuan Era.

6. In the New Oasis for Life, I will follow the teachings of Jesus Christ, Buddha Sakyamuni, Celestial Lao Tzu, and Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and learn the lessons of the saints and sages of humanity throughout the ages with an open mind, endeavor to perfect my own qualities, and strive to become a high-quality member with lofty ideals, good self-cultivation, great literacy, and high moral character. I will enrich my connotation, behave elegantly, and talk culturally in order to devote myself wholeheartedly to serve the kind, diligent, honest, and trustworthy masses in the world all my life with the wisdom of Buddha Sakyamuni and the sentiments of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and give all that I can until my heart ceases to beat.

7. In the New Oasis for Life, I will regard myself as an ordinary celestial, fulfil my duties, do what I should do, never be arrogant or haughty or gain notoriety with shocking statements or gain anything by trickery, but conduct myself in a down-to-earth way, move forward in gradual steps, remain realistic and honest, suppress neither myself nor others, never try to impose my own views or opinions on others, strive to make not only myself but also every other celestial happy, joyous, free, and blessed at all times, and never bring any mental, spiritual, or physical harm to others from my words, actions, or behavior.

8. In the New Oasis for Life, I will do my best to bring my qualities of sincerity, kindness, beauty, love, faith, and honesty into full play, maintain these beliefs under all hardships, always treat everyone with a positive and optimistic attitude, never pollute another's spirit or soul with pessimistic or negative moods, and make efforts to create a harmonious, peaceful, warm, and pleasing atmosphere, and calm and gentle surroundings in the oasis.

Dear Ancestor of Buddha, Greatest Creator:

I will meditate on the revelations that you reveal to me through everything in nature every day and will follow your will of creating, take things as they are, associate with others by following predestined relationships, act in accordance with my nature, and take advantage of opportunities as they arise. I will reflect on myself, not blame or criticize others, be grateful for everything without complaints in my heart, live my life by conforming to nature while never desiring oddities, concentrate on improving my consciousness without pursuing supernatural powers, enrich my understanding without pursuing illusory forms, and adhere to facts, science, logic, and spiritual perception without superstition, blind obedience, belief in nonsense, or praise for high talk.

Reverential Ancestor of Buddha, Greatest Creator:

I trust in you fully and never doubt you. I am willing to take your way firmly, place my life in your hands, accept your guidance and dispatches, live every day's life full of enthusiasm and vitality, and be your favorite little baby. I pray for you to guide me, encourage me, and give me courage and energy constantly that I might overcome all difficulties, accumulate merits and virtues, and finally reach your back garden: the Elysium Celestial Islands Continent.

Grandpa Greatest Creator!

May your will be manifested unimpededly throughout all time and space!

I pray for you to fulfil my wishes in the name of Jesus Christ and Buddha Sakyamuni,

Amen!更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

People in the Second Home (now New Oasis for Life)Shall Dance with Dawn -ivysunday(Sunday); 2020-10-23 {3853} (#7127@4096)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛People in the Second Home (now New Oasis for Life)Shall Dance with Dawn
Xue Feng

Dawn represents the advent of a new day. Yesterday, be it sunny or gloomy, has been chased away by the dawn of today. “Getting up at dawn” has been a precept since ancient times. When the first rays of the morning sun appear on the horizon, a new day and a new self are born. By welcoming the dawn and dancing with dawn, we will begin another wonderful day and the wonderful life.

In the past 19 years, I have been living in a world of twittering birds and fragrant flowers, where the weather is spring all the year around. Every day, when birds start chirping, I will get up full of joy and confidence. Getting up early makes people feel refreshed and exhilarated. I know a person who gets up at the flush of dawn and dances with the rising sun is bound to have a beautiful life and future.

I have continued my habit in the Second Home. During the half year since the establishment of the 4th branch, dozens of Chanyuan celestials have all been dancing with the dawn. At seven in the morning, people are beginning a day’s diligent work. The home is changing every day. It is becoming more and more beautiful and more and more plentiful.

Recently, when I walk out my room at seven in the morning, the sisters and brothers in the 3rd subunit have already begun their labor. When I enter the courtyard, four sisters are doing the cleaning. Some are watering the flowers and grass, three brothers are attending to the vegetables in the field, people working in the kitchen have prepared boiled water, the sister that feed chickens and ducks are feeding the chickens and ducks and collecting eggs. The sister that take charge of laundering are drying clothes on lines. More than a dozen sisters and brothers engaged in the expansion of the Home have begun the onerous work. Sisters responsible for network are entering the website and beginning the building of spirit and soul. I stroll in the courtyard, feeling the air extremely refreshing. The home is full of youthful spirit, vigor and vitality.

In the Home, people who get up later than seven are regarded as lazy.

There are no holidays and festivals or weekends in the Home, because dawn always comes unfailingly. The sun never has holidays, festivals or weekends and Sundays. Since we are following the way of nature, we should abide by the rhythm of nature, getting up day after day and year after year at the rising of the sun and finishing working at the setting of the sun.

We Chanyuan celestials do not pursue magical arts, theurgy, or special skills, and do not seek shortcuts. We are the most ordinary and commonplace people under heaven. All our pursuit of happiness depends on the favor of the Greatest Creator in the macroscopic level and on our own persistent creation in the microscopic level. We do not bet on stocks, we do not engage in trade, we do not rely on earning surplus value of other people, we do not rely on exploitation and oppression, we do not resort to speculation, we do not deal in selling and buying, we do not harangue, and we do not make research into magical arts. We work hard and create our ideal future with our own hands. We must therefore dance with dawn.

Early morning is beautiful. Dawn is hope. There is dawn every day. As long as we dance with dawn every day, we shall not worry about any aspects of our life, and we are bound to have a splendid future.

Dear sisters, brothers, relatives, and lovers, let’s dance with dawn. Let’s get up before seven every day. As long as every one of us can persist in this habit, we are bound to lead a happy, pleasant, free and blessed life, and we are bound to march toward the Thousand-Year World, Ten Thousand-Year World, and Celestial Island Continent of the Elysium World.

Daily Prayer against Plague God 008 -ivysunday(Sunday); 2020-10-23 {2612} (#7128@4096)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Daily Prayer against Plague God 008
Xuefeng
January 26, 2020
(Translated by Treasure and Edited by Kaer)

Heaven knows me;
All gods understand me;
Heaven and Earth watch my actions.

Though the Plague god emerges, I remain at peace;
Natural laws show the justice of clear rewards and punishments;
Whether I receive blessings or disasters is up to the gods.

With no fear from my merits or faults;
Neither complaining nor hating, as all result from Karma;
Even the Sun and Moon must run along their trajectories.

I pray for the Greatest Creator's forgiveness;
I repent all my faults sincerely and no more wrongdoings;
Surely, I will follow you if I can pass through this trial.

No more destroying living beings or craving worldly delights;
I will treat as I expect to be treated and protect all life;
I feel the pain of other beings and revere LIFE.
No longer losing my temper, but treating everyone with kindness;
Far from anger, taking all things asthey are, and following my destiny;
Always dealing kindly with predestined relationships, releasing all karma, and defusing all resentment.

Neither fighting nor robbing, I will believe in the justice of Dao；
Neither stealing nor swindling, I will be frank and righteous；
Not involving with illicit sexual relations, I will shield my mind and body with kindness and goodness.

I will never have an ego, never bully or control the weak, nor gain extra advantage;
I will be just and abide by laws without any desire for that which is not mine.

I will never produce impure orpoisonous things;
I will keep my mind clear and bright and be faithful to my words at all times;
I will never gather moveable property, but keep my mind clean.

Revering gods and Buddha, my path will be smooth and bright;
Listening to Saints and Celestials,adversity will become prosperity;
With virtue, my blessings will always exceed my desires.

Never again, will words from mymouth hurt others;
No more steps will be taken along evil paths;
All of my mind’s thoughts will be based on love for all beings.

I will conduct myself honestly;
Once the roots are established, the path will lead straight
Devine meshes are large but with no gaps
Gods shall test my heart and crumble my bones if I do evil again

As I pray more to the Ancestor of Buddha
Show me pity and keep the plague from my door
I will be righteous as I pray for all gods to bless me.

I will observe Lifechanyuan values and follow the Guide's lead
And associate with celestials to elevate my LIFE towards heaven;
My heart is now clear, pure, quiet,joyous,
and with gratitude and a bright future ahead.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

Work Diligently and Operate the Home on a Thrifty Basis -ivysunday(Sunday); 2020-10-24 {4717} (#7129@4096)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Work Diligently and Operate the Home on a Thrifty Basis
Xuefeng

Sisters, brothers, relatives, and lovers living permanently in the home!

First we should know that we come to the Second Home (now New Oasis for Life)to initiate the new way of life for mankind and to pay back our debts and accumulate the wealth to go to the heavenly kingdom instead of simply enjoying happiness.

Second we should understand that half of our living expenses rely on the contribution from sisters and brothers, because currently we are not self-sufficient enough.

Lastly, please keep in mind that we will refund the money ( with the deduction of 2000 Yuan) that has been contributed to the home by any Chanyuan celestial who later chooses to cancel his or her membership in the home and leave the home.

We should understand there is no free pie falling from the sky, and we should work to earn anything. We should not leave things to chance and try to enjoy what others have earned through hard work. Any one shall take a toll of anything that he or she has come into possession for no credit, and anyone shall get rich reward for his free contribution and devotion. This is required and represented by the principle of zero sum of positive energy and negative energy.

The great man Mao Zedong has told us long before that we should rely on ourselves and work energetically for the prosperity of our country. And this also holds true with our home. We will work diligently with our dexterous hands and beautiful soul to create the ideal home that belongs to us, and we shall never count us others or the society to provide us with material guarantee. No, we should never have such a mentality! If so, we will become slaves and puppets, and vassals to be ordered about by others. If we have such a mentality, we will never get freedom, in addition, Jesus Christ has long warned us that if we owe the human world money, even if a cent, we will not be able to leave the human world, and we will have difficulty in realizing our wonderful ideals.

We thank Buddha and the Greatest Creator for this beautiful home we now have, we should be grateful, we should be greatly grateful! We should value and cherish!

We shall work hard and run the home on a thrifty basis. All sisters and brothers permanently living in the home shall not be lazy and should not gain advantage by trickery. We should learn from Shenci and Ende, the two people in the home who are nearing their eighties. They are still working diligently for the home. This year they have pulled out almost all the grass in the corn field in the Chengxian Valley that was the height of man. We shall also learn from Xuande and Yidi, who willingly bear the burden of hard work and are working for more than ten hours every day. There are many such Chanyuan celestials who are working hard and conscientiously for the home.

We should always ask ourselves:what have we done for the home?and what results have we achieved?

If we get more from the home than what we have contributed to it, we should be on alert. We should know that laziness is the greatest enemy of the home and anyone who idles here is likely to be asked to leave anytime.

Therefore, we shall try to do as much as we can, we shall get out of the shadow of living on the donations as early as possible. Currently, the home shall keep a strict budgeting and shall not waste on anything. We should back all the unnecessary expenditures, and this can only be achieved through the highly voluntary action of every brother and sister.

Thank the Greatest Creator for his mercy, and thank Tao for its arrangement. In recent days we have decided to sow rapeseeds. The weather was fine, so the home has successfully sowed rapeseeds on several acres. Today, it is raining again. Just see how kind the Greatest Creator has been to us.

In the last few months, Yunnan has suffered severe drought that has not

been seen for a hundred years. However, the home has enjoyed favorable

weather, except for a dozen days, during which the water was a little scarce.

And this shows that Jesus Christ is with us, Buddha Sakyamuni is with us,

Celestial Lao Tze is with us, and Buddha and the Greatest Creator is with us.

Practice has proved that as long as we follow the way of the Greatest Creator, and follow the road map of the guide strictly, Buddha and the Greatest Creator shall protect us, and we will have a more and more beautiful future, and our prospect will be infinitely splendid.

If we work hard and run the home on a thrifty basis, we will not only reap very rich spiritual wealth, soul wealth, but also sufficient material wealth.

What Has the Practice of the Second Home (now New Oasis for Life)Proved -ivysunday(Sunday); 2020-10-24 {4754} (#7130@4096)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛What Has the Practice of the Second Home (now New Oasis for Life)Proved

Xuefeng

Lifechanyuan has successfully created the Second Home as the pattern of man's new life. During ten months of practice of the Second Home, especially the celebration of the Spring Festival in 2010 by nearly 60 people, people enjoyed joy, pleasure,freedom, happiness, good luck, auspiciousness, coziness, peace, and elegance. No one has lost temper, no one feels unhappy, no one feels unpleasant, and no one feels unsatisfied. The facts have proved that the life pattern of the Second Home is civilized, elegant, advanced, and humanistic. It is a great leap in mankind's thinking and man's pattern of life.

The practice of the Second Home has realized eight ideals.

1. Disintegration of marriage and family, elimination of private ownership, realization of the ideal of "everyone having nothing and yet possessing everything".

2. Realization of the communist ideal of "from each according to his ability and to each according to his need".

3. Realization of the Greatest Creator's kingdom without marriage predicted by Jesus.

4. Realization of Lao Tze's ideal of "Tao modeling itself after nature".

5. Realization of the ideal of "Each displaying his or her own special skills, like eight Chinese immortals crossing the sea".

6. Realization of the social ideal of "no one pocketing anything found on the ground and no one bolting the door at night".

7. Realization of the ideal of everyone enjoying happiness, pleasure, freedom, and blessing.

8. Realization of the harmony between man and nature.

The practice of the Second Home has proved that the following nine values are correct.

1. Following the way of the Greatest Creator is the fundamental prerequisite and guarantee for man as a whole and man as an individual to acquire a happy life.

2. All crises faced by man can be solved if the crisis of man's soul is solved.

3. Marriage and family is endless sea of suffering. Outside marriage and family, you are far away from the sea of tribulation.

4. Holographic theory and holographic management mechanism conforms most to human character and nature.

5. Collective life is the best venue for self-refinery and self -cultivation.

6. Entering the Second Home and actively participating in the building of the era of Lifechanyuan for mankind is the most direct and most effective way of self-refinery and self-cultivation to realize the ideal of life and LIFE.

7. The core of self-refinery and self-cultivation is none other than the sublimation of soul and the perfection of consciousness.

8. Uphold "800 Values for New Era Human Being", and you can get everything that you need.

9. The teachings of Jesus Christ, Buddha Sakyamuni, Celestial Lao Tze, and Prophet Mohammed are correct.

Facts have eloquently proved that becoming a Chanyuan celestial is a happy thing and living in the Second Home is the best way to scale the highest realm of life and LIFE.

"It is difficult to start a business but more difficult to safeguard what one has already accomplished". It is easy to attain the Tao, but difficult to maintain it. Therefore, we must know clearly that although the chanyuan values are correct, and although we have successfully created the Second Home and have successfully put it into practice, chanyuan values are still not perfect, the Second Home is not yet ideal, and everything is still extremely weak. We can not stand the test of huge rainstorms and waves. If we slacken our efforts, it is very likely that the "garden of Eden" may vanish into thin air. It is not time yet to lie down and relax, not yet time to slacken our will and enjoy comfort and ease. Every chanyuan celestial should work even harder and forge ahead, and conduct self-refinery and self-cultivation as if walking on tight rope and thin ice.

We are now all sensible chanyuan celestials with clear and logical thinking. We should be clear that understanding principles is one thing but putting them into practice in our daily production and life is quite another thing. If when conducting self-refinery we do not make efforts in each word and action and when conducting self-cultivation we do not make efforts in every idea and will, then the principles that we have understood would be useless pet phrases.

One thing that we can be sure of is that as long as we stick to the way of the Greatest Creator, upholds the 800 Values for New Era Human Being, and strictly follow the road map of the guide, we will pay back all our debts, we can accumulate the treasures and wealth for ourselves to go to the heavenly kingdom, have a splendid future, and realize the ideal of life and LIFE that we dream of.

You must Come From Heaven -ivysunday(Sunday); 2020-10-26 {1249} (#7133@4096)

Xuefeng
(Translated by Conglong)

You smile and talk gently as white clouds from above

You walk quietly as the swinging willow

You are sweet as the spring water

Clean and pure

Your love is transparent and pure

flows with fragrance

Your affections are sincere as the lasting spring

Green lands all year round

You kiss freely because you come from heaven

You must come from heaven because you are born of love

You are here only for love and affection

You have come a long way to share love

It is the gentle breeze and the dancing bamboo

Climb to the summit of a hill and my eyes see it

Walk into the valley and my ears hear it

Seeing you, I see flowers and birds

Hearing you, I hear clear spring water in the mountains

Beauty is everywhere

It is all you

You fill my heart with endless joy

You are the source of greatness

I met you in heaven, unforgettable that you are

Like a bee fluttering in a sea of flowers

Life is so beautiful, because of your fragrance

LIFE is so brilliant, because I am nurtured by your love

No more wandering, let us return to the faraway place

No more hesitation

Hand in hand, let us return home:

– Heaven –

本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛The Furthest Distance of All

Xue Feng
(translated by conglong)

is not that we are ignorant of love,

but the secular world is a dam

that stops rivers from sharing water.

is not that love can’t burn,

but the gossips and naysayers are sharp

always to cool the flames of passion.

It burns, but buried deep within the heart.

The Furthest Distance of All

is we have shared love for many years

and are together still,

but we must separate.

I cannot live without you,

but must feign not to care,

and cry bitterly in silence.

is not as simple as I miss you,

but the divide is so great

that silently we weep

even when together.

The Furthest Distance of All

is not the length of the Yangtze River,

but that I could not find you,

though I searched from source to end.

is not that the Yellow and Yangtze Rivers never meet,

but when I see your name in Lifechanyuan,

I do not see the most precious gift bestowed by God.

The Furthest Distance of All

are the trails of two hearts that never converge.

I know it is there, but just beyond the shadows.

is like the meteor in flight;

if meeting is our fate,

we will surely meet in Elysium.

The Furthest Distance of All

is the distance between human and celestial:

one is on earth; the other is in heaven.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

I do what I like to do

I follow my inner voice

Let my nature burst like a fully blossomed flower

******

If god wants me to be a big tree

I will try to extend my hands to the blue sky

If becoming a wildflower is my destiny

I will do my utmost to show my beauty

******

I’m a stream, why bother compare with rivers

I’m a little grass, why compete with a peony for beauty

Everything is part of god’s blueprint

No one is noble or humble

******

Life is just a journey

The sceneries are my guardian angels

Why should I copy others and ignore my nature

Chasing after success is twisting my nature

******

I don’t want to be great

nor do I care success

Every day, I just want to show my true self

No matter what I achieve in the end

I only want a beautiful journey

******

I’m not a warrior of life

Nor a guard of some doctrine

I have no interest in competing with masters

They have their talents

I have my own fun

******

I just want to be a little bee

Flying through the mountains and plains

It feels so good to be ordinary

No longer lift my neck to pretend I’m tall

******

Tiny bridge, flowing brook, and cottages
worn road, west wind and lean horse

Even living in the remotest corner

I will find myself happiness

******

Let me just live in the quiet small village

Having joy with crickets and sparrows

Winter goes, spring comes,

Feeling the coolness

and softness of breeze

Please go after success and greatness

Let me stay in New Oasis for Life

Take care of each other更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

Set out, towards the hometown of freedom! -ivysunday(Sunday); 2020-10-28 {2950} (#7138@4096)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Set out, towards the hometown of freedom!

Xuefeng

There is a beautiful place
That is the kingdom of the Greatest Creator
The hometown of freedom
Green mountains, clear waters,
Warm and sunny all year around
Flowers are blossoming
covering on the hills and yards
Streams flowing, spring tinkling
Willows swaying, bamboos dancing
Kingfishers flying
Happy people singing loud
Never need to struggle for survival

Ah! This charming land looks like a picture
White clouds hanging over the mountains
Colourful rainbow appearing and diminishing
Winding paths and peeping green tiles
Harmony and peace can be felt everywhere
The free kingdom in my dream!

No stealing, no fighting
No hurting, no gossiping
No suspecting, no cheating
No annoying noises
Not even jealousy, comparison and complaints
Everything exhibited in beauty

Run away from the prison of human nature
Get away from the sufferings
Life is a flash in the pan
No need to attach to the annoying person or thing
Not worthy to tangle in anything that limits freedom

Boss, wife or kids
King, husband or brothers
Whoever limits my freedom
I will run away

Time is flying like a horse running across a fissure
Which I can’t afford to waste
When I am alive
I should present my true self
Rules, commandments, morals, dharma are not good
As long as they are bondage

Let me live according to my own will
but within the law of nature
As long as I don’t hurt nature, people and other life beings
Whatever I do
will please the Greatest Creator

Let me go for the free land
when the sun rises in the morning
Muddy road, strong storm
wolves, tigers, cliffs
will never stop me
If I don’t have freedom
Am I different from a living corpse?

Sweats, tears and blood droplets might be my company
To get freedom, I’m not afraid to pay any price
Even if my body is bruised
and thorns are on the way
Not to mention the secular gossips
I don’t care people say I’m heartless
I never want to have the tragedies
people had before

I’m diligent, kind,
and willing to devote myself for the wellbeing of others
But will not accept anyone’s control, enforcement
and attack on my soul
I’m simple, innocent, and long for mutual respect and love
But will not tolerant constant supervision and complaint

I will not live in a place my freedom is controlled
I’m not willing to fight for power and money

and accompanied by people who are short-sighted

I am a pretty flower in the fairyland
unsophisticated,
I’m pure and elegant
The sky of my soul is so blue
Without little dust and stain
Let the doctrines enslaving my soul go to the hell
I’m only fascinated by the faraway picturesque and harmonious place
That is my free hometown and where I will go

Carry my small baggage
Head forward, no longer look back,
No more hesitation and wander,
I’ve chosen the goal and direction
Each step towards the magnificent splendor of life,
Set forth
towards that hometown of freedom!

The "chanyuan girls will always be 18 " I wrote today,
There is deep meaning inside of it lay.

All of you come from women's bay,

The Second Home, a paradise on earth, where angels gather and soar freely

A peaceful life in the fairyland, with green mountains and blue waters, and clear sky

Far from the bustling world, free of worries, and happy, free and merry every day

without earthly relations, without care and worry, with beauty and pleasure

around

without disputes and obstacles, the life is free and easy

All is comfort, peace, auspiciousness, and pleasure

It is like the heavenly kingdom

All fairies in the home are elegant

with endless charms like a dream

with noble character like precious flowers

with rich connotations and light heart

All faeries are handsome

as learned as the master strategist Zhu Geliang

Civilized in speech and behavior

with great love and gentle feeling

The home is a beautiful picture

with precious plants and rare flowers

the maple bridge, the blue waves, the red flowers and green willows

The boats sailing on the lakes make endless ripples, the emerald peaks extend to the distant horizon

There is wafting fragrance, sparse shades, beautiful flowers, splendid sunshine, and the fragrant path leads to dense groves of flowers and bamboo

The swallows flit to and fro in pairs, the elegant orioles are perched

together, the cranes and swans are singing

In the moonlit night, melodious music is played, expressing endless love,

and attachment to the Second Home

本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Personal Information of Xuefeng

Xuefeng

(Translated by Conglong and Edited by Kaer)

As the founder of Lifechanyuan, my role is to reap “the ripe crops”, initiate the Lifechanyuan era for human beings, and lead Chanyuan celestials to climb the highest realm of Life and LIFE. To people who are practicing self-cultivation, your focus should be on whether the road to which I am leading is clear and whether the values I promote are reasonable. My personal background information should not be too important, though I have mentioned some details in my articles, except for my true name and birthdate. But there remain some people who are curious about me, so in order to satisfy them, I will re-introduce myself with information that can be verified by anyone.

Everything in Lifechanyuan is open to public, we are doing nothing mysterious, and there is nothing we wish to hide. As the founder of Lifechanyuan, it is reasonable for me to expose everything about myself to the public because I do not want to appear furtive.

My legal name on my ID : Zhang Zi Fan (张自繁)
My birthdate on my ID: July 17, 1957

My place of birth was Zhang Village, Lianhua Township, Yongjing County, Gansu Province, China (The intersection of the Yellow River and Da Xia River). The building of the Liujiaxia reservoir caused us to relocate and the name of our local administrative area was renamed, so my original birthplace no longer exists. We then moved to Hetan Township, the autonomous County of Dongxiang Tribe, Gansu Province.

Gender: Male
Height: 172cm (5’8”)
Weight: 80 kg (176 Lbs)

Personal Appearance: I have been told that I was a “handsome guy”! Even now some people say that I am an “old handsome guy”. However, some people online said online that I am really ugly. No!

Middle school: The #3 Middle School of Dongxiang County

Technical college: Plier, Zhangjiakou Geological Technical School, Department of Geological Minerals

College: Lanzhou College of Education; transferred to Jiuquan College of Education

University: Advanced class, majoring in International Trading, University of International Business and Economics in Beijing, China.

Resume (in chronological order):

●Communist party branch secretary, League branch secretary, Administrative clerk, Accountant of the Production Brigade (in my hometown after I graduated from high school)
●Technician - Prospecting team, Geological Mineral Department, Gansu Province
●English teacher - The Children’s School for Prospecting team, Geological Mineral Department, Gansu Province
●Drilling machine and motorcycle repairer - The #3 hydrology team in Jiuquan City, Geological Mineral Department
●English teacher - The 2’nd Middle School of Geological Mineral Department, Gansu Province
●Statistical officer - Lanzhou Yuzhong Prospecting Machinery Factory, Lanzhou City.
●Interpreter - A Chinese company in Zimbabwe, Africa
●Self-employed - Zimbabwe; before I founded Lifechanyuan. I was operating two grocery stores, a bar, a club and a fast food restaurant.

Political Background: Joined the Communist Party of China in 1975, and left the party automatically because of my engagement in overseas businesses. Although I am no longer a member of the Communist Party, I have never changed my faith to devote my life to the realization of it.

Family Background: I was born and brought up in a poor farming family.

My Father: A member of the Communist Party of China, he was a very firm believer and practitioner of communism and devoted his full life to it.

My Mother: A very hardworking and kind farmer and an obedient and capable wife.

My wife: She is with me whenever I go and works with me. We change our living places quite often and she is basically always beside me. She is now a Chanyuan celestial and lives with me in the community too. Her room is next door to mine.

My Son: He went to overseas for middle school education when he was 11, and received his university education in USA. He is married now with a native American girl and legally a citizen of USA. I wanted another child - a girl, but because of the birth control polity, I just have one child.

Crime Record: I never had any criminal activity, and never did anything against law. My record is very clear.

Religious Background: When I was a child, I used to go to temple with my mother to worship some kind of Chinese gods like the earth god, king of dragon god, Erlang shen etc. I got some knowledge about Taoism from my grandma, and a little Buddhism from my mother. I knew some Islam from my Muslim colleague, and also a little Hinduism from a few Indian people. I’ve learnt the Bible with Jehovah's Witnesses for three years, and had been to the “Kingdom Hall” from time to time.

Master:Apart from my teachers of primary school, middle school, technical school, college and university, I never formally acknowledged someone as my master. So I don’t have a master, and I was not descented anything from a master.
Interest: Music. I composed two songs – The Magic Second Home (now New Oasis for Life), and The School Song for Lifechanyuan University. I like to play flute, harmonica and dulcimer.

Nickname: My Chinese language teacher of primary school called me “the Phoenix in heaven”; and was nicknamed “Ancient King of Ge Sa Er” by my students when I was a middle school teacher. I was once jeered by my colleagues, and they called me “the half-celestial Zhang”. Until now, Chanyuan celestials called me the “cool guide” and “loving guide”. I was also nicknamed “Shrew” by some people outside Lifechanyuan. Recently, we are building some houses in the 4th branch, my brothers and sisters call me “Zhou Ba Pi” (In Chinese, it is used to describe a mean boss or leader). They intentionally called me this because I did a very tight work schedule for dozens of Chanyuan celestials everyday so that nobody would have an idle moment, moreover, I use a very loud speaker to play music at 7:00 in the morning; Once the music is on, every one has to get up to work, and no one can sleep late.

Hobby: “Flirting”, I love to joke with my brothers and sisters. I like women, I like almost all women, but I never abandon the old when I have a new lover.

This is basically everything about me.
If anyone wants to know more, please ask, and I will certainly answer you.

Build Great Faith--Cultural Construction in the Second Home (now New Oasis for Life) Part 1 -ivysunday(Sunday); 2020-10-30 {4979} (#7147@4096)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Xuefeng

The type of faith will decide the type of soul; the type of soul will decide the type of culture; and the type of culture will decide the way of life and production and the operation mechanism of society.

The cultural construction in the Second Home of Lifechanyuan has a direct bearing upon our way of life and production and operation mechanism of society, and has a direct bearing upon whether we can ascend to the highest realm of life and LIFE and realize our ultimate ideal.

The paramount principle for the cultural construction of the Second Home is the building of great faith, the great faith in Buddha and the Greatest Creator, the great faith in Jesus Christ, Buddha Sakyamuni, immortal Lao Tze, the Prophet Mohammed, and the great man Mao Zedong, and the great faith in the guide Xuefeng. Without these three great faiths, it will be impossible to build healthy culture, and people will lose their direction, and will fall asunder and plunge into chaos. The resulting internal strife will waste time, energy, material, and mental efforts. As a result, it will be impossible to pioneer the era of Lifechanyuan, in which “the worthy person can fully utilize his talents, the whole world is like one family”, ““No one will keep lost articles found on the roadside, and the houses need not be bolted at night”, in which everything will be in complete harmony, the weather will be good for harvest, and everyone will be happy, free and pleasant, and in which all methods are unified into one general principle and all religions are unified into one uniform religion.

What is great faith? Great faith is complete belief and trust without any suspicion. Great faith means trusting what you understand and what you do not understand for the moment.
Every Chanyuan celestial must read "The Greatest Creator" thoroughly, and then read "Revelation" in connection with his or her life experience, so as to build great faith in the Greatest Creator. Without the great faith, it is like water without source and wood without root.

Every Chanyuan celestial must read "Matthew", "Mark ","Luke ","John", and "Gospel of Judas ",and have profound knowledge of "Diamond Sutra ", "Heart Sutra", and "Tao Te Ching", worship Mohammed and Islamic spirit, learn Mao Zedong 's spirit of serving the people with heart and soul, form the most sublime wish and build the great faith in Jesus Christ, Sakyamuni, Lao Tze, Mohammed, and Mao Zedong.

Every Chanyuan celestial should read Chanyuan Corpus and Xuefeng Corpus thoroughly, know about the guide Xuefeng,and build the great faith in the guide Xuefeng. You can ask yourself who in this world can inherit and carry forward the wisdom of God, Buddha, celestial being, sages and saints in a comparatively systematic and complete manner. Who can build a systematic and complete and comprehensive theoretical system on the origin of the universe, the origin of LIFE, the origin of mankind, the time and space of the universe, life,LIFE and science ?Who can practically lead people away from the sea of tribulations? Who can make people sleep well, eat well, and play well, and both eliminate their fear, worry and anxiety over food, clothing, shelter, transportation, living, illness and death, and at the same time make sure they fully exhibit their personality and enjoy the pleasure of life? Who can create a beautiful environment where there is both unified will and pleasant feeling, and where there is no suppression, exploitation, bullying, and oppression? Who knows the secrets of the heavenly kingdom and leads people towards and ultimately into the heavenly kingdom? Certainly Xuefeng can do this.

If you would not believe in such kind of a person, then may I ask what else we can believe in and who else we can believe in. "Comparison can tell who is superior and who is inferior ". You can make a comparison of all people in the history of mankind and all people of the present time. If any one of them can surpass Xuefeng in words and actions, then you can abandon the guide Xuefeng immediately.

Faith is truth, love is LIFE. Faith can accomplish everything. Small faith accomplishes small thing, great faith accomplishes great thing. Without faith one will not know what course to take and will accomplish nothing.

With great faith, you can overcome all difficulties and hardships in life, you can light up the magical lamp in your heart and illuminate the road ahead, you can get rid of passivity, pessimism and form a positive and optimistic attitude, and you can pursue the sun and get away from darkness, and finally reach the soul mountain indomitably.

We should build this cultural atmosphere, namely the great faith in the Greatest Creator, the great faith in Jesus Christ, Buddha Sakyamuni, the immortal Lao Tze, the prophet Mohammed, and the great man Mao Zedong, and the great faith in the guide of Lifechanyuan Xuefeng--this is the core of culture building of the Second Home.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

Be Always Grateful--the Culture Building of the Second Home (now New Oasis for Life) Part 2 -ivysunday(Sunday); 2020-10-30 {4559} (#7148@4096)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Xuefeng

Gratitude is the primary element for the sublimation of the quality of LIFE. To become Chanyuan celestial, one must be grateful; to enter the Second Home, one must be grateful. How can one not be grateful for escaping the programme of the secular world and enjoying the great pleasure of life in the Second Home ?

What else do we want? the Second Home takes charge of our food, clothing, shelter, transportation, living, aging, illness, and health, and we need not toil and worry about supporting the old and raising the young. Our work is simple, and we need not be overloaded with trifles. With a lot of sisters, brothers, and lovers, we are no longer lonely and solitary; with free and open love, we are no longer depressed, melancholy, and distressed. Since we have achieved the state of having nothing and at the same time possessing everything, we need no longer worry about possession; since we have the stage to fully exhibit our personality and talent, we no longer need to fear that our talent will not be put to good use; since we are far away from the secular world, we no longer feel anxious about the intrigue, scheming and cheating between each other; since we have our guide to lead us, we need not worry about the future of our LIFE......What else do we want?

Man should not be greedy. Do you think there is an end to it if you still feel unsatisfied when living in such a cultural atmosphere and environment, still feel that you have not treated yourself fairly, still dislike this or that, still make endless complaints, and find faults with everything?

Without a sense of gratitude, you will have an unsatiable desire, you will feel unsatisfied, you will grumble with complaints, you will make trouble, you will become lazy, you will be fastidious, you will have a bee in your bonnet, you will feel only you are capable, you will feel others owe you a lot, you will complain and find faults, you will try to control and hold others in sway, you will stir up trouble and sow discord between people, you will hurt others in words, you will cause endless trouble and suffering to your sisters, brothers, and lovers, and you will not be able to concentrate on your work.

With a sense of gratitude, you will have a clear consciousness and mind, you will not ask for too much, you will not keep your eyes on other people's shortcomings, you will not loaf around without anything to do and without anything on mind, you will not attempt to control and usurp others, you will not attempt to impose your own will upon others, you will not restrict others' joy, happiness, blessing and freedom, you will not have jealousy, complaint, and comparison, you will not lose temper and have a lot of discontent and grievances, you will not feel that others are bullying and restraining you, and you will not be disheartened and listless when you meet some setbacks.

With a sense of gratitude, you will bring joy and pleasure to others and yourself, you will not feel the poverty and hardship of life, you will not feel depression, you will feel everything is wonderful and satisfying, you will be broad-minded and refreshed, you will have unselfish love and devotion, you will always compliment and encourage others instead of finding fault and complaining to others, you will be forgiving and tolerant to others mistake and faults, you will form harmonious, amiable and loving relationship with the environment and people, and you will have great enthusiasm and passion and devote completely to the cause of man's happiness.

Before we realize our ideals, we should always keep in mind that none of us is perfect and we all need further sublimation, and that we should not stop at where we were yesterday. Since neither we ourselves nor others are perfect, we should forgive and tolerate each other, while tolerance derives from the gratitude in our soul.

The sense of gratitude in every Chanyuan celestial should be a cultural characteristic of the Second Home. As long as we have a sense of gratitude, there will be no mountain of flame that we cannot climb across, there will be no difficulty that we cannot overcome, and there will be no temporary plight that we cannot put up with, because the sense of gratitude can reach heaven and earth and human nature. As long as we have the sense of gratitude, we will get the love from Buddha and the Greatest Creator, and we can get out of the temporary plight and change for the better.

Be always grateful over everything and eventually you will reach your ideal destination!更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
Be Frank and Honest--the Culture Building of the Second Home (now New Oasis for Life) Part 3 -ivysunday(Sunday); 2020-11-1 {4824} (#7151@4096)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛Xuefeng

We should put an end to autocracy and dictatorship, we shall make sure that all kind, hardworking, simple, and faithful people enjoy pleasant, joyful, free and happy life, and we will build a good culture and environment, where there is no oppression, no exploitation, no suppression, no destruction, no maltreatment, no infliction, and no discrimination, where all people are equal, people care and love each other and live harmoniously, and where people share weal and woe.

Firstly, people who speak frankly shall not be subject to revenge and retaliation and threat. Anyone who has some opinion to contribute shall be encouraged, respected, heard, and paid attention to, as long as he is speaking the truth, as long as he is not deliberately provocative and does not make groundless speculation, as long as he is not unreasonable and does not talk nonsense, as long as he does not aim to stir up trouble and instigate, as long as he does not create difficulties and form a clique to pursue selfish interest, as long as he does not attack for personal spite, as long as he does not expose others' privacy and land them in an embarrassing situation.

Since the guide Xuefeng plays a critical role in this second home of ours, and I myself is not perfect, you should be strict with me, so that you can prevent the guide from becoming an unsatiable autocrat and destroying this beautiful home that has been built with your hard work. Every sister, brother and lover should speak out frankly, help me, and save me instead of fomenting my mistakes whenever he or she discovers that I practice favoritism, that I take advantage of my power to bully people, that I maltreat any Chanyuan celestial, that I deviate from the values of Chanyuan, that I reserve privileges for myself, that I threaten or harm anybody, or that I have caused the harm of spirit, soul, and flesh to any sister or brother. If my words and behaviors have offended you, please point them out frankly, and do not let me be misled and mistakenly think that you like my words and behaviors, to such an extent that I become swellheaded and always have my way.

Please tell me frankly if I have not handled affairs fairly, if I take part with someone, or if I practice bureaucratism and oppression. If I retaliate somebody for his frankness, then I have degenerated into a demon. Then the guide has lost his reason and is not worth trusting.

We should speak frankly about the guide, we should also speak frankly about every Chanyuan celestial in the home. No one in this home can be left out. Everyone should accept others' frank opinion. Anyone who harbors discontent and hatred for others' kind and frank words and resort to retaliation is not sincerely engaging in self-refinery and self-cultivation and thus should be criticized by the guide.

The best way for frank speech is to reserve one night every week for a meeting of exchange in the home. Everyone shall speak frankly in the public if they have some opinions concerning some matter, if they feel that they are wronged, if they feel that they are not treated fairly, if they feel that they have sustained someone's maltreatment and harms to their spirit, soul and flesh, or if they find that the sister or brother of the home has deviated the values of Chanyuan in speech and actions. All problems should be resolved publicly instead of privately.

We should build a culture in which everyone can speak frankly. We Chanyuan celestials should all be superhuman. He will not be a qualified Chanyuan celestial and a frank person if he does not speak frankly about the wrongs, unfair treatment, and oppression he has suffered. A person who does not speak frankly is absolutely not an honest person, he is either a cunning and sly double-dealer or a good-for-nothing.

With the exception of privacies, everything in the Second Home should be transparent and exposed to the sunlight. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to create the era of Lifechanyuan for mankind, and we will not be entitled to guide the whole mankind.

Privileged class and special interest groups are not allowed in the Second Home. At the same time, we should not practice egalitarianism, because we have the noblest wish in self-refinery and self-cultivation, and everything that we do is for the sake of perfecting ourselves and reaching the best realm of life and LIFE. We do not aim to obtain any personal benefit and interest from the home.

Open the windows and the sunlight and fresh air will come in.Take a broad view and you will see faraway mountains are fresh and green. If everybody speaks frankly, the dark cloud will be dispersed and decay will be turned into miracle. Then we can create an ideal environment and a beautiful future, set an example for mankind and eventually realize our更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
Freedom of Emotional Love and Sex Love -ivysunday(Sunday); 2020-11-1 {5239} (#7152@4096)
本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛——the Culture Building of the Second Home (now New Oasis for Life)

Part Four

Xuefeng

Emotional love is the precious gift endowed to mankind by the Greatest Creator, sex love is the highest order of game, as well as an effective initial approach to become a Buddhist believer, to gain enlightenment and reach the realm of Elysium. Fully enjoying emotional love and sex love accords the will of the Greatest Creator, and is a part of beautiful life that cannot be ignored and expropriated.

It is an important connotation of the culture building of the Second Home to ensure that everyone fully enjoys emotional love and sex love and protect everyone’s freedom to fully enjoy emotional and sex love. Any suppression or expropriation of this freedom is inhuman and goes against the will of the Greatest Creator.

There is no family, no marriage, and husband-wife relationship in the Second Home. Once inside the the Second Home., everyone is free and is free from any bondage and shackles in the matter of emotional love and sex love. On the basis of mutual consent and within the code of civility, one will not be subject to any form of restraint and supervision in his or her emotional life and sex life. Anyone who attempts to limit and supervise other's freedom of emotional love and sex love has deviated the values of Chanyuan and will not be entitled to live in the the Second Home.

No one should usurp or control others, no one should treat others as his or her private properties, no one should interfere in other's emotional love and sex love, no one should expropriate other's freedom of emotional love and sex love. In other fields of life we should get rid of the consciousness of feudal autocracy, eliminate oppression and private ownership. In the field of spirit, soul, and flesh, we should also get rid of the consciousness of feudal autocracy, eliminate oppression and private ownership.

Jealousy indicates the ugliness of one's soul. Jealousy, complaints, resentment, and hatred manifested in emotional and sex love are the symbols of an ugly soul. It is morally criminal to restrict, control, monitor, supervise, and hinder other's freedom of emotional love and sex love out of jealousy.

In the Second Home., any form of emotional and sex love is free. One is free to live all by himself. Two people are free to live together faithfully and refrain from any emotional and sexual relations with any third person. One is also free to have more than one emotional and sexual partners. One is also free to have unlimited number of emotional and sexual partners. Everything goes on in accordance with one's own free will. This is private affair not public affair. The second home respects everyone’s will, personality, and hobbies. No one should impose his or her will and values upon others. Those who like bread should not limit other people’s like for noodles. Those who do not like apples should not forbid others to eat apples. The home encourages the blooming of all flowers, like the eight celestial beings that each display their own special skills in crossing the sea. The home provides the stage for the full and comprehensive blooming of gorgeous flowers of human characters.

For thousands of years in human history, as a result of erroneous consciousness of emotional love and sex love and artificial limitation, improper moral norms and commandments have been established in different countries, causing countless people to have been treated unfairly. Human character has been severely suppressed, the originally beautiful things have been messed up. Actually very simple things have been complicated, things that are pure and noble in nature have been treated as humble and dirty. What should have been a comedy turned out to be a tragedy. Such situations should not continue, the original purity and simplicity of things should be restored so that every one can fully enjoy the pleasure of emotional love and sex love, and every one leads a happy, pleasant, free and blessed life. And this is an important part of our culture building.

Since man is still in the backward and ignorant state at present, in the situation of competition and struggle governed by the rule of jungles, and in the war of survival centering on the selfish possession of resources, we face severe challenge and difficulty in building a culture that makes sure everyone fully enjoys emotional and sex love. The road ahead is fraught with twists and turns and great risks. Without a firm will, one is likely to be swallowed up by the secular outlook on emotional love and sex love at any time. The wind and waves of the secular world may overturn our boat of new culture. However, the society is moving forward, people are awakening, and more and more people have realized that the traditional views on emotional love and sex love have caused great misfortune and pain to mankind, especially to individuals. We firmly believe that as long as we stick to our belief and as long as we are patient, the new culture of the Second Home. is bound to be widely accepted by people, a brand-new way of life will bring happiness and light to mankind, and the Lifechanyuan era surely come to us.
