Angels and Devils
In our thought, Angels are light, love, compassion..
But Devils are belligerent, cruel, brutal….
We love Angels, respect Deities
We hate Evil Spirits, despite Devils
We pray, plead to Angels, Deities
We implore to Angels, Deities for protection, support...
|
We portray Devils with fangs, red head, green hair
We kneel before Angels, applaud Deities
We are willing to build luxury and majestic shrines
To worship, to venerate Angels, Devine Messengers
Sincerely, respectfully make offerings to Devine Messengers, Angels..
Angels not found in Heaven, Devils not in Hell!
Angels, Devils surround us day and night, in the dark and in the light
Angels, Devils are inside us: Spirituality, Mind, Soul…
Angels, Devils: a fight which never ends, never takes five
So we should never neglect but always be vigilant
Angels may win but not always triumphant!
Devils could be beaten but not forever. Devils still win times and times again!
It’s tragic when Devils win, Angels, in dire strait! We, in danger too!
On our guard, sentiments, feelings,..., a moment of carelessness, Devils reign
Be watchful around us: Money, position...
a split second of carelessness, Devils will pound!
Self-cultivation doesn’t mean kowtowing, pleading with God, Buddha, Saints, Angels.
Also doesn’t mean to build temples, monuments for Deities worshipping
Self-cultivation doesn’t mean offering gifts, flowers, cakes
Doesn’t even imply superstition, delirium, paranoia
Doesn’t mean to beg for Angels’ assistances but to help Angels
Helping Angels to defeat Devils is the best way to cultivate oneself!
We should not demand Angels’ supports but help Angels instead
We only have happiness and luck if Angels rout Devils
To conquer Devils, we should abandon jealousy, vindictive hate!
To help Angels we cannot do without Enlightenment, Compassion...
