問：您保證我們這輩子就可以見到上帝，或是要等到下輩子？
答：這輩子，就在此刻！你根本不知道自己在這一世之後還會不會來當人。是的，就在這輩子，這一世就可以看到。假如我辦得到，你也辦得到。假如所有印心的師兄、師姊都可以辦得到，你也可以。這個輩子對我們才重要，誰能證明我們還有下輩子？
多數的靈魂離開這個星球後，都不會再輪迴到這個星球，所以事實上我無法保證你下輩子的事。你可能轉世到另一個天堂或別的星球，不一定再回到這裡，也不一定能重獲人身。
靈性分為兩方面：一種是理論，另一種是實踐。理論就是介紹我們認識上帝、天堂、喜悅、永生以及「在世見到上帝」，就好像我現在介紹蘋果一樣。而靈性的實踐層面就是蘋果本身，就是吃蘋果。
關於理論方面，我們已經有很多了；我們有各種靈性的經典，有各種教理談論上帝、佛陀、天堂、佛土之類的事，那些只會讓我們流口水。因為我們沒有親眼見到，不知道上帝長得怎樣，不知道天堂是什麼，我們以為只有古代很單純的人才看得到天堂，才能跟上帝交談。但是為什麼我們不行呢？古時候的人也一樣要吃飯、工作，他們也結婚生小孩，也要照顧家庭，跟我們現在一模一樣。
所以邏輯上來說，我看不出以前的人有哪裡比我們單純，為此我感到很納悶。我在初嚐開悟的滋味之前，感到很困惑：「為什麼我看不到上帝？為什麼我看不到佛菩薩？」既然以前的人辦得到，我一定也可以！如果看不到祂們、不認識祂們，我就無法相信上帝或是佛菩薩！所以我竭盡所能，試了很多方法，我試過不同的教派、參訪不同的老師，希望能找到真理，最後終於有志者事竟成，有人告訴我見到上帝的方法。經過一段時間的練習之後，上帝允許我…事實上，是祂指派我應該跟那些已經準備好的人分享我個人的體驗。並非每個人都想知道，但是任何準備好要知道的人，祂都會示現給他們看。我只是把這個方法介紹給你們，那其實很簡單！
這就是靈性的實踐層面，也就是說，人家介紹給我們的東西，我們一定要去了解、去品嚐。所有的宗教典籍和經文都記載著類似的體驗，比方說開悟時至少會看到光，光也是上帝的一個層面。上帝雖然無形無相，但祂可以化成具體或抽象的形態，好讓我們能夠認識祂、跟祂交談，甚至向祂訴苦，或是聆聽祂的指示，然後我們會越來越有智慧，日常生活中的問題也會處理得更好。透過這種方式，我們才能成為神聖又有智慧的人。有些古時候的人因為能夠直接跟上帝溝通，或直接獲得最高力量的教誨，所以成為智慧通達的人。我們剛開始認識上帝時，祂可能會以光的形態示現，或用人類的語言，或透過內心的直覺來跟我們交談。之後，祂會把我們提昇得越來越高，直到跟祂同一體，屆時我們就可以說：「我和天父同一體！」主耶穌就是透過這種方式，達到與上帝合一的境界。

The Two Aspects of Spirituality
June 9, 1999 (Originally in English) DVD #662
Q: Do you promise that we can see God in this life, or will it be in the next life?
M: This life, this instant! After this life, you don’t even know if you will come into human life. Yes, it’s in this life, this very lifetime. If I can make it, you can make it. If all of our brothers and sisters who have been initiated can make it, you can make it! Only this life is the life that matters to us. Because who can prove to you that we have the next life or not?
Most souls, after leaving this planet do not reincarnate again on this planet. So I can’t promise you the next life, actually. You might be reborn again in another heaven or on another planet, not necessarily this one, and not necessarily in the physical frame like this.
Spirituality has two aspects: One is theory and another one is practice. The theory is the one who introduces to us God, Heaven, the bliss, the everlasting life and the “seeing God while living.” It’s just like I’m doing now, introducing the so-called apple. The practical aspect of spirituality is the apple itself; it’s when you eat it!
For theory, we have plenty already. We have all kinds of spiritual scriptures and we have all kind of doctrines that talk about God, talk about Buddha, talk about Heaven, about Buddha’s Land and so on. But they just make our mouth water! Because we don’t see it ourselves, so we don’t know what God looks like and we don’t know what Heaven is. We thought only the pure people of the ancient times could see Heaven and talk to God. But why not us? The people in the old times also ate; they also worked, they also got married, they also had children and they also took care of their family, just exactly the way we are doing now.
So I don’t see how the people of the old times are purer than us in any way, logically speaking. Because of that, I was wondering myself. Before I got the taste of enlightenment, I wondered, “How come I cannot see God? How can I not see Buddha?” I saw that people in the old times could. So I must be able to. I cannot believe in a Buddha or God I don’t see and I don’t know! So I tried my best; I tried many ways. I tried going to different schools, I tried seeing different teachers, hoping to find the Truth. Then finally, where there is a will, there is a way: Someone showed me how to see God. So, after some time of practice, God allowed me or actually, Hes orders that I should share my personal experience with other people who are ready to know. Not everyone is ready to know. But whoever is ready to know, Hes reveals Hirmself. I just show this to you. And that is very simple.
That is the practical aspect of spirituality: The things we have been introduced to, we must know and we must taste them. All the bibles and the spiritual scriptures of different religions mention similar experiences, like when you are enlightened, you at least see the Light, which is one aspect of God. God has no form, even though Hes can manifest in forms, physically and metaphysically, so that we can identify ourselves with Hirm. We can talk to Hirm and even complain to Hirm; we also can hear Hiers advice so that we can take care of our daily problems better and so that we become wiser. That’s how we become saintly, wise persons. In the old times people became wise because of direct communication with God or direct teaching from the Most High. So in the beginning when we first know God, Hes might appear to us as Light, Hes might talk to us through human language or as intuition in our mind. But later on, Hes will raise us higher and higher until we become one with Hirm. And that’s when we can declare: I and my Father are One, the way our Lord Jesus reached God.
