In 1980 message the lord said said that the image is His Doctrine and the Doctrine is in His Image. For the first time, He touched on the Yin and the Yang. Below is the paragraph from his message. Historical version of the 1980 anniversary
message of Lord Bo Tien
"Next Lord Bo
Tien went on to interpret His posture as carved. The sceptre He is holding
represent firmness and durability. The left hand in prayer represents smooth
sailing in all matters, also signifies determined heart, and sincerity in
prayers, we will be able to get what we want. As His Image is dressed in a
general (uni)form, do not mistaken Him to be a fierce General. Because in His
Image, there are also His Doctrines. The chair on which the Image sits on
signifies comfortability, in happy mood and steadiness. The armours He is
wearing represent vitality, health and strength. The many colours of His Image
represent the many races in this world. The two devils He stepped on represent
the good and the bad in this world or the Yin and Yang forces of this world in
which the mind is the main controller. In life we have to face these two forces
once we are born, but once we are able to balance ourselves and walk the middle
path, we will be able to control ourselves."
