Our food, clothing, shelter and transport in daily life are all inseparable from the Earth's magnetic field effects.The Earth itself is an enlarged human body.Suppose the five continents are the five major organs and the five oceans are the extraordinary meridians and eight vessels, and we are like the bacteria in the Earth's body, receiving every day the nutrients the Earth releases [earth qi, the twelve Earthly Branches, etc.] and absorbing the rays projected from other planets [cosmic particles, the ten Heavenly Stems, etc.].Among them there are good rays and bad rays, and these light frequencies and electric waves all cause changes in the Earth's five elements.To put it simply: if the sun suddenly gave off intense heat [fire], would that not be enough to make us choke?When the Earth is too hot, water evaporates immediately [the ice caps melt] (setting off a five-element chain reaction), and after water evaporates, heavy rain follows, and so on in a chain, which will surely bring another great effect on the ecology of the Earth.Genesis also mentions several times the catastrophic changes of the Earth, and animals and plants kept migrating and evolving to adapt to their environment through the great disasters.Thinking back, these scenes are exactly like the human body!Earth = human body, bacteria = humans, evolution = viruses, illness = catastrophe, pollution = toxins.What is the same is that we are all irradiated by cosmic rays, all have magnetic fields, all have five-element cycles, all fall ill and age, and all have other beings living on us; all things on Earth face this same situation.Humans raised their wisdom and invented telescopes that can see thousands and tens of thousands of light-years beyond the Earth [like divine sight] yet still cannot fathom the universe; humans raised their wisdom and invented receivers that can pick up sounds from thousands and tens of thousands of light-years away [like divine hearing] and still cannot understand the universe.Humanity is, to the Earth, like soul-light within the human body: it needs wisdom, needs to keep rising, and above all needs to make good use of the five elements rather than make nuclear bombs.If the wisdom and soul-light of the human body keep dropping, with us destroying ourselves everywhere through overeating and drinking, unstable emotions and irregular living, it is as though we were destroying the Earth.What will become of us then?The human body is only one, as the Earth is only one, and human body resources will someday be used up, just as the Earth's resources are being consumed.And once humans raise their wisdom, they can leave the Earth and look for another planet to live on, just as when we raise our soul-light wisdom we can leave the human body.Humans can raise their soul-light wisdom by themselves, but cats and dogs cannot![Please refer to the soul-light level table.] Moreover, humans have good and bad, just as the seven emotions and six desires disturb our practice.Human wisdom has already risen to the point of knowing that we must protect the environment and nurture life, and that we must not disturb the Earth's natural five-element cycle.I hope that readers who have come this far will take a few minutes to think about it: do you truly understand now?

🏯 Extended · Five-Element Stupa

Rinpoche emphasizes repeatedly: to end the cycle of samsara, harmonize the magnetic field, and purify karmic creditors, the most direct method is offering a Five-Element Stupa. Combined with ritual dedication and mantra practice, it progressively elevates one's soul-light. Fahsilin's altar has actual Five-Element Stupas available for request.
