Really enjoyed this podcast. I really like the way Chee Tong responds to the questions and share his knowledge on Taoism. I now have a much better understanding of it. Will learn more from Chee Tong.
I enjoyed this podcast immensely. This really changed my perspectives and understanding about Taoism. Very interesting and engaging. The most interesting part is listening to Chee Tong who is well educated and eloquent and not some aged Ah Pek Taoist (pardon me no offence intended). Very good interview.
Hope you get more subscribers. Interesting topics. Everyone’s spiritual journey is different. One’s relationship to God or our idea of Divinity is very personal.

Why must there be a spiritual realm? Can't people or animals and plants just exist without gods or spirits? Your imagination is exceeded only by your own. The simplest explanation is almost always the truest
Ths earth planet is the only school that souls can come here to learn and to grow. Why do we have to die? Because everything here is not real. Real things are supposed to be eternal. This body we have are only temporary. We were once souls before we enter into this earth life and took on an identity. Souls need to have a body before they can grow. This earth planet is only a school. Once we complete our earth life, we will be tasked to do something else. Is this imagination? Think about it, if this body is real, it should be able to live forever. This body is just a cloak. Only it is used and wore out, it will expire and we will have to return back for a short rest before reentering back here to continue our lessons. Each time we reenter, we will forget our past lives and start anew. The completion of this earth life is enlightenment. Because it takes a long time to be enlightened, we will need to take another new body to continue our lessons. The earlier we become aware of our life purpose, the more we expedite this journey. This awareness is known as spiritual awakening. When we become conscious of our real purpose in life and start making big change in order to make faster progress. The longer we waste our time doing all kinds of things other than nuturing our spiritual progress, the more we have to come back again and again.

In my religion the main premise on which it stands and why religion is a must is 1-There is a creator who created everything. This life is a test, of who does God deeds and gets reward of heaven and who does bad deeds. God sent messengers to tell people that this life is a test test:(for a poor person,does he cry,or thank God for the little he has, for a rich person,does he become arrogant or does he thank God) 2-Now as for accepting the particular religion, if one reaches the conclusion that this religion is indeed a revelation,but one rejects out of arrogance, or it goes against their culture etc. Then knowingly rejecting the truth and not following the religion is like defying God ie. greatest sin.
We are all still beating around the bush to find the illusive. Taoism is one such bush. A very nice one for sure, though. At its core the the pathless path, 为无为 wei wu wei. Still, no matter how one practices, at the end of the day, like everyone else, one dies. Resolution an illusion. Tao is and is not. The search, oh ! the search! A fruitless Tao to the Ching! Ai ya ya!!
God is beyond religion. God is not just a belief or blind faith. God is a real experience. There is religion and there is spirituality. Most people know what religion is. Not very few people knew what true spirituality is. Most people relate spirituality to ghosts and spirits. But the highest form of spirituality deals not with ghosts or spirits but with the Divine, with self-cultivation, with God. God is beyond religion because religion is not perfect. The reaon why it is not perfect is because most if not all religious teachers are not yet enlightened. They have not reach the highest level of their faith. They are just mere human beings with imperfections. To be enlightened is no small feat. It requires long time of cultivation. Because they are not fully enlightned, they cannot teach Truth at the highest and purest level. This is why religion is not perfect. Buddha and Jesus were not just religious leaders. They were real enlightened spiritual masters. People just put words into their mouths and say Buddha say this and that. But really? Have you personally listen to what Buddha say? Can you see Lord Buddha and speak directly to him and ask him questions? I don't think so. Dharma books and bible are just books written by other people other than Jesus or Buddha themsleves. There don't always represent what these spiritual masters really want to say. There are very few masters who are enlightened in this world. But there have been some who were enlightned and they did lived during our lifetime. But very few people knew about them. These masters can commune with Buddha and Jesus and more. These were the real masters who can tell you what is God because they can commune with that Divine. One such master said, God the One and God the many is the same God. God with form and God without form is the same. Man is God yet to be realised. God is man yet to be manifested. When the power of love Replaces the love of power, Man will have a new name: God. The highest truth is very simple to understand. Only books written by living enlightened masters are worth reading because they come directly from the Source.
@@natmeyy7590 , you are speaking like the one who crucified, pls show your evidence and I will believe you. Jesus could have freed himself had he wanted to, he has that kind of ability. But why did God not let him do it? This is the biggest mystery. Only human will react by showing evidence to prove themselves. But not God, why? If I am God, why would I need prove myself to a non believer so that he will believe me? Even if i show my evidence, he will still come up woth all kinds of doubts. Because what he has are doubts inside his mind, not faith. He has no faith and has never cultivated himself and will never want to cultivate himself even if I stand right in front of him. So, what’s the point of showing my evidence? I am so desperate for his belief? No. If he wants to doubt , let him continues to doubt. I have no time for such people. Let he doubt another million years, I don’t need his belief. So, only those who has been sincerely cultivating themsleves will get to see some signs of God. They remain faithful and regularly try to cultivate good nature. When the time comes, God will show to only these people His evidence. God is playing a game of hide and seek with humanity. I hide, you seek. If you don't seek, I will continue to hide. I have seen extraordinary things, miraculous things in my life. God has shown Himself to me in different ways. Let sayI tell you I saw superman this morning outside the window. And I tell the world, superman is real. I saw him. What will people say? Show me. But how? I didn;t expect him to appear so suddenly, but I did see him. Believe me! What will you think people will say? You are a liar. How can superman be real. You need a mental doctor.
@@natmeyy7590 , even if I show you real live evidence, your mind will still come up with all kinds of theories that this are all fakes. Made up lies. Too many lies out there now. How to believe? You think I am a kid, give me a break.
@@gohalvin21 , God comes to those who are ready. Not everyone will experience God in their lifetime if it is not meant to be. To those who say that God is a lie or fake, please continue to do so. You will wait long long for your turn. Because the more you disbelieve, the more He will let you continue to disbelieve as long as a million more years. One day, your own soul will make life so difficult for you that you will start to question, why me?
So this young man has nothing new to offer ! We will only know after we die ? Yes all religions seem to be peddling this nonsense. Snake oils salesmen .Religion was started when the first conman met the first fool.Just a reminder! God is a,man made concept. You can be good without God .Grow up.
Yes God is everywhere

So you don't need any verifiable evidence, it seems. Your clutching at straws.
@@natmeyy7590 , how do you know I don’t have evidence? Who told you?
@@64ytb pls share your evidence!

Religion has become a dirty word after it has been corrupted by men. That’s why people want to talk about spirituality now.
He is the guy to call if you encounter some Chinese zombies...
Religion is about believing in God.
How about without religion and god.
Aha that is better.
Ofcourse! You can, religion cannot save you, salvation is in God through Jesus Christ
God is biggest lie
To you, maybe. But not to everyone.
What makes you think so ?
@@gohalvin21 , same question to you, what makes you think so?
@@gohalvin21 , God comes to those who are ready. Not everyone will experience God in their lifetime if it is not meant to be.
To those who say that God is a lie or fake, please continue to do so. You will wait long long for your turn. Because the more you disbelieve, the more He will let you continue to disbelieve as long as a million more years.
One day, your own soul will make life so difficult for you that you will start to question, why me?
@@64ytbgod is just a belief. When something not true then you need to belief. soul is another lie.
