中文/Chinese scripture by Ji-Gong Living Buddha (Holy Teacher)
Preliminary translation
Confucius envisioned a world of peace and harmony based on virtuous human conduct. During his time (circa 500BCE) China was full of conflict and strife, and to his dismay the rulers ignored his teachings. But we are now entering a new age—the realization of the Confucian ideal for world harmony. At the same time, the paradise or heaven on earth as prophesied by the Buddha and ruled over by Maitreya will also manifest. It will be a world in which people live according to the Confucian morals of conduct.
