186. Averting and Dispelling Holocausts Brings Forth Early Earth Rejuvenation

¹ The purpose of Quiet Sitting Classes is to converge the spiritual force from all attendees and complete the spiritual education of the strivers, in order to cultivate loyal cadres for preaching God’s true Dao, transforming social atmosphere, and restoring people’s hearts.

¹ 靜坐班是集中一切精神力量，完成一次精神總教育，為要培養天帝教弘教的忠貞幹部，以傳播天帝真道，改造社會風氣，挽救世道人心。

² Strivers must join hands in their efforts to avert holocausts, rescue the world, and bring unity to the world. These three goals materialize and reach completion in that sequence.

² 同奮要共同奮起，化劫救世，促進大同。這三個目的是循序漸進，逐步完成。

³ The ultimate goal of the Quiet Sitting Class is to let everyone know that once they have become members of the Lord of Universe Church, they should develop the fundamental spirit of sacrificing their “small self,” and dedicating themselves for the “greater self.”

³ 靜坐班的最終目的是要讓大家知道，進入天帝之門後，同奮就應該建立起犧牲小我，奉獻大我的基本精神。

⁴ Building a healthy body is to build the foundation for completing more noble missions. Taking it one step further, [strivers should] draw persons of affinity to the Church, to inspire others to revive their pure hearts, that is, their conscience, so that they can live a gentle and simple lifestyle. This change of lifestyle can help the social atmosphere to become positive, free, and happy.

⁴ 鍛煉健全的體魄是為完成更崇高的任務作基石；進而化度有緣，啟迪心智，使人人重露赤子之心，即良知良能，過善良儉樸的生活，使社會風氣趨於積極向上，自由安樂。

⁵ Ultimately, righteous qi will be formed naturally. The righteous qi will become so strong that it will clear away the miasma of demons, avert and dispel holocausts, and enable people to survive such crises. By then, the goals of our daily prayer, “averting and dispelling holocaust and bringing forth new life to Earth,” can be achieved.

⁵ 最後自然會產生一股浩然正氣，掃蕩行劫魔氛。人類一場大難也必能消弭於無形，絕處逢生，也就達到我們天天哀求祈禱「化延毀滅劫、大地早回春」的目的了。
