| 382 为什么我们应该相信古人的智慧，并坚持我们的修行？ |
| |
June 15, 2012: Why should we trust the wisdom of the ancients and persist in our spiritual practices? Our Loving God explains to us today.
In spiritual matters, faith is the very essence. Have faith in the wisdom of the ancients - do not pitch your tiny and little brain against the institutions of saints and their discoveries. For example, people question the ritual of offering food in the fire, on the death anniversary of one’s parents. They scorn and mock, "How can the food placed here reach wherever they are?", "Why are the dead given food, when the living starve?" they argue. You post a letter in the box, it goes straight to the addressee, is it not? If the address is written correctly and clearly, and if the necessary postage is paid in valid stamps, the letter is carried in bus, air, train or by people right upto the doorstep of the person and delivered. The ritual fire is the authorized post box, fire is the postal authority, manthras are the stamps. There is a science of the spirit, as there is a science of matter; it has its own modus operandi; its own experts and authoritative theses. Only by sadhana can the secrets of either matter or mind be known, grasped and used for one's benefit.

| 在灵性方面，信心是精髓，要对古人的智能有信心，不要用你那小小的脑袋去砸那些圣者和他们的发现。例如有人质疑火供食物这种仪式，质疑父母的冥诞，他们嘲笑说：“食物放在这里，怎可能抵达它该去的地方？”，“活的人在挨饿，死的人却给他们食物。”他们如是争辩。你寄出一封信，丢入邮筒，它不是直达收件人吗？只要地址正确而清楚，贴上邮票付了邮资，信就会以车子、飞机、火车、或人直接送到收件人门前。火供就是邮筒，火是邮差，祈祷文是邮票。有物质科学，也有灵性的科学，它有自己的一套运作法，有其专家，有其权威性论文。不管是物质或是心灵的秘密，只有靠修行，才能知道、掌握并加以利用。
