Celestial way (Tian Dao) is a faith that show and brings us the true way to heaven (Tian). Dao is a Chinese character that is translated as the way or the truth. But the true meaning of Dao transcends beyond words. Dao exists before the creation of heaven and earth. Dao is also the root of all religion. As Lao-Tzu in Tao Teh Ching Chapter 22 explained "Before the universe was born there was something in the chaos of the heavens. It stands alone and empty, solitary and unchanging. It is ever present and secure. It may be regarded as the Mother of the universe. Because I do not know its name, I call it the Tao. If forced to give it a name, I would call it The Great."

The creator of humankind is our God, or we called as the Venerable Mother. It is the fundamental of every religion to bring us back to heaven, to our Venerable Mother that create us.

This is because now we are in the White Era or era of destruction. It is as the autumn season, where the fruit has ripen and waited to be harvested. We also called it the Harvesting Time of Ethereal Fruit. Morality of people has decline from day to day. If we look at the world around us, we’ll find: theft, robbery, killing, looting and all the evil things that people can think of. Natural disaters happen everywhere: drought, floods, earthquakes. Human-made disasters: greenhouse effect, depletion of rain forests, ozone hole in our atmosphere. What does this tell us? As Jesus said in the Matthew 13: 39 " The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels".

But the mercy of the Venerable Mother has descended the Celestial way to humankind so they can be saved from all disasters and calamities and so that we can all return to the side of our creator.

Now we can attain the invaluable Dao directly without having to cultivate first, this is what we called Enlightenment before Cultivation.

As The Fifth Patriarch, Hung Jen, explained in Platform Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch "You disciples make offerings and say prayings all day long and only seek the field of blessings, but you do not seek the way to escape the bitter sea of life and death. Your own self-nature obscures the gateway to blessings, how can you be saved?"

A living human is made up of two constituents: the physical body and soul. Our physical body is the mortal self that only exists in this world, while our true self the soul is immortal. Our soul is our true self, different religions called it by different name:

So what happen after we die? Our mortal body may stop working and decompose, but our true self must return to Venerable Mother. By receiving Dao, we can find our true self and shown the right and true way for us to return to heaven.

To attain the invaluable Dao, one has to seek the Way by being initiated by Master Initiator that legitimately holds a "Celestial mandate" so that The Master can transmit the precious Three Treasures. The celestial mandate has an apostolic line that extends back to the earliest time. Initiation is valid only if it summons the name of the reigning holder of the apostolic mandate.

Period I: the 18 Eastern Patriarchs

After Mencius, the transmission is ceased because turmoil in China but Lao tzu has transmitted the way to Buddha Sakyamuni to India.

Period II: The 28 Western Patriarchs

Period III. The Later 18 Eastern Patriarchs

Dao is brought back to China by Bodhidharma

Patriarch Zhang is the incarnation of Ji Gong Huo Fo (The Living Buddha) is our Reverend Master (Shi Zhun). The apostolic line stops here and dao because now is the beginning to widespread Dao and our Reverend Master hold the celestial mandate for transmitting Dao to common people.
