By sister initiate Zheng Tian-xin, Taipei, Formosa

Six months ago, there was an upheaval in my family life. My husband was having an extramarital affair. I did not know about it at first. I just thought that things were not going well between us because I might be not doing my part well. So I did my best to improve our relationship. It was a heavy blow for me when I later learned that there was a third party between us. In great anguish, I deliberated over the possibility of divorce and how to handle the situation. I prayed to Master constantly, hoping that She would give me the power to live on. One day in a dream, I saw myself wearing a ring on my finger, which Master said was named 'Pure Heart'. She wanted me to use this pureness of heart to handle everything and live in the days to come. When I woke up, I wondered what the dream really meant.

Having decided on divorce, I thought I'd buy myself a gift - a pinkie ring so that I could live better in the future. I decided to try on the Celestial Jewelry. The sister responsible for the Celestial Jewelry took out a box without hesitation and picked a ring for me. Incredibly, it fit me exactly, and it was a ring for the little finger! It looked familiar to me, and when the sister told me it was called 'Pure Heart', I remembered that it was the gift that Master had given me in my dream.

True indeed, my divorce dealt me a heavy blow! I became very suspicious of people, which subsequently caused a lot of negative energy to gather in me. Master was aware of this, so She gave me what I needed most: 'Use pureness of heart to treat people and handle matters; complete your journey in this world and practice spiritually with purity of heart.' Previously, I had wrongly interpreted the meaning of purity of heart. I thought that it simply meant not doubting people, and not seeing things in a complicated way. I misunderstood and suffered because of that.

There is a drastic difference between ignorance and purity. To have true purity of heart is to be full of wisdom, to be able to discern things very distinctly and to know how to handle things perfectly. In the process of handling things, there is no hatred or animosity, only love. To have purity of heart, we must truly be one with God, so that we can see and treat others as ourselves and truly trust them, instead of blindly telling ourselves not to be suspicious out of ignorance. Then we will not see things in complicated ways, because we will have understood God's plan. Each time I look at the ring, my inner realization is elevated. The wisdom and power conveyed by the Celestial Jewelry can really touch one's soul.

In Master's company, I am confident that I will be able to make the remaining journey of my life smoothly. My child and I will practice more diligently, because this is the only safe path.

Purity of heart, oh, purity of heart!
Purity of heart is two hearts in one -
The radiant heart embracing the emptied heart
That glows and fills with wisdom.

Wisdom glitters in a heart of purity,
Harboring Yin and Yang, gentle and stern.
Radiant is a heart of simplicity,
Encompassing the universe with its wisdom.

Purity of mind, oh, purity of mind,
Loving advice from Master in a dream,
Empties all perplexities in me;
Purity is all I pray for,
Reducing vexations to nothing.
