Spirits Harboring Bitterness and Grief Fill Heaven and Earth

Spirits Harboring Bitterness and Grief Fill Heaven and Earth

 

Since division and development occur ceaselessly in the Early Heaven during the birth-growth era of cosmic spring and summer, mutual conflict and domination naturally dominates. Because mutual conflict and domination dominates the human world, nobody has ever actually lived a mortal lifetime as they truly wished. By nature, each and every person is born into this world to live a lifetime of freedom. ①Yet, living within a physical body, no one has ever lived entirely in accordance with their own free will.

 

Humanity’s history has been stained with blood and gilded with unrighteousness. It is not too much to say that, ②among all who have dwelled in this world in human form, not a single person ever departed this world without incurring a burden of bitterness and grief. All people who died bearing bitterness and grief became ‘spirits filled with unresolved bitterness and grief.’

 

Throughout humanity’s history of struggle, people have died while afflicted by bitterness and grief so intense that it reverberated throughout the heavens; these people, having become spirits, now fill heaven and earth. ③Spirits harboring bitterness and grief now fill all of heaven and earth.
