Ignite the Sacred Light Within

Only by igniting the sacred light within can we enter the blissful homeland.

Where is this blissful homeland? It is the Elysium World—the Celestial Islands Continent of the Elysium World.

How can we search for and come to know the true existence of this homeland? Through our own personal experience and direct perception. Once we have truly felt and experienced it, all becomes clear.

How do we experience and perceive it? There are three paths:

One path is through sacred union with the opposite sex—when love-making reaches its peak, the ecstasy of climax opens the gate to revelation. Another path is to behold supreme beauty: the majestic landscapes of rivers and mountains, breathtaking paintings and beings, and soul-stirring music. The third path is to set foot upon the journey of pilgrimage.

The pilgrimage is the path to the blissful homeland—prostrating with every step, moving forward toward the sacred place within one’s heart.

But how do we recognize the sacred place our heart longs for?First, one must ignite the sacred light within.

And how does one ignite this sacred light? By wholly offering oneself—body, heart, and soul—to the One whom one reveres with awe, trust, and devotion. By relinquishing the self, by dying to the self. At the very moment of complete surrender—when nothing of the self remains—the sacred light within is instantly lit.

Once this sacred light is kindled, it marks the beginning of the pilgrimage.

How does one walk the path of pilgrimage? The most vivid example is that of the Tibetan pilgrim—who, without hesitation, travels thousands of miles, prostrating every three steps over gravel, rubble, meadows, streams, rivers, snowfields, mountains, and open plains, advancing toward Lhasa or the sacred Mount Kangrinboqê. When the knees are torn and bleeding, and the hands frozen stiff, one continues forward, supporting oneself with the elbows. Whether faced with wind, clouds, rain, snow, wolves, insects, tigers, or leopards—one presses on without retreat, leaving no path behind to turn back.

On the pilgrimage path, there is no doubt. No fear. No glittering lights or worldly indulgence. No status, wealth, or reputation. No death—only transcendence. No attachment to what lies behind. No clinging to the mundane world. No worry, no excitement, no sorrow, no resentment. The heart remains still as calm water. The hardship along the way, and everything seen around, stirs not even a ripple within. In such a state of body, mind, and soul, one has already arrived at the blissful homeland.

Thus we see: to set foot upon the pilgrimage path is to embark on the journey of a lifetime. It is not about whether one reaches Lhasa, or Kangrinboqê, or Mecca. If the body dies while on the path, that is the most beautiful and ideal conclusion— for true LIFE has already returned to the blissful homeland.

In this New Era, AI will gradually take over the management and stewardship of Earth. Humankind must learn to live more and more in the world of spirit and soul. And the sign that one has truly begun the pilgrimage path is this: they have become a Chanyuan Celestial.

All Chanyuan Celestials are walking on the path of pilgrimage.
