The universe is made up of 5 elements, namely:- wood, fire, earth, metal and water. Just as these components are found in nature, our body also contains these five substances or elements.
The skeleton framework is the element of wood.
Our breath is the element of fire.
The flesh of the body is the earth.
In our blood cells, we will find iron compound (metal).
The blood and body fluids are the watery elements.
Lord Bo Tien did not aspire to set up a new religion but to clarify the truth about religion.
