799-800 Conclusion

701. All paths and teachings ultimately return to one source — the will of the Greatest Creator.
All religions, beliefs, and schools of thought converge into the reverence and praise for the one and only Greatest Creator.
The whole world as one family, and a unified, harmonious world — these are the defining themes of the New Era.

702. The existence of families, nations, political parties, and religions is the root cause of environmental degradation, global inequality between the rich and the poor, irrational allocation of resources, continuous human crises and social unrest, the suffering of ordinary people, and the massive waste of human and material resources.

703. Humanity must move toward unification—toward becoming one global family.
The best path forward is to continuously strengthen the functions and authority of the United Nations, until it ultimately becomes a global government governing all of humanity.

704. Every person on Earth should see themselves first and foremost as a citizen of the Earth, not of any particular nation.

705. The Earth belongs to all Earth citizens.
Every individual has the inherent right to migrate and move freely across the planet.

706. When all things return to Oneness, harmony prevails:
The sky, by attaining Oneness, becomes clear.
The Earth, by attaining Oneness, becomes tranquil.
Spirits, by attaining Oneness, become harmonious.
Valleys, by attaining Oneness, become abundant.
All beings, by attaining Oneness, flourish.
Saints, by embracing Oneness, become models for the world.

Humanity should have one global government, one belief (honoring the Greatest Creator), and one universal order. Each person should have one ultimate goal, one aspiration, and one path to follow.

Without Oneness, clarity, peace, divinity, and abundance are unattainable.

Too much leads to chaos; too much variety leads to complexity. Only when all teachings return to one source, and all religions and philosophies converge in reverence for the Greatest Creator, can the world become one family and truly embrace Oneness.

Only by embracing Oneness can we achieve harmony, peace, auspiciousness, favorable seasons, and a life of joy, delight, freedom, and happiness for all.

707. Single individuals should be elected to lead each region.
Compared to those entangled in marriage and family ties, single individuals are generally more selfless, freer from attachments, more open-minded, and have fewer personal concerns.
In short, single leaders are better positioned to serve the greater public interest.

708. Localism and nationalism are marks of ignorance and backwardness.
The affairs of any region or group are not the private matters of that place or people —they are the shared concern of all humanity.

Leadership should not be selected based on locality or ethnicity, but from among the most civilized and outstanding people of the whole world.
Only by recognizing the capable and entrusting them with leadership, regardless of origin, can we achieve a world family where all people enjoy freedom and happiness.

709. All matters on Earth concern all Earth citizens.
Every person has the inherent right to speak out and intervene in the affairs of any place, including those of any nation, political party, religion, ethnicity, or organization.

710. The foremost universal value is belief in the Greatest Creator—this is the foundation of all universal values. Faith has nothing to do with religion.
The foundation of all universal values is faith in the Greatest Creator.
This belief is independent of any religion—it transcends all religious boundaries.
Faith in the Greatest Creator is the cornerstone of a truly unified and harmonious human civilization.

711. On January 1, 2018, humanity entered a New Era—the Lifechanyuan Era.
This transition is marked by the completion of a vast theoretical system designed to guide humanity into the New Era, along with the successful practical experience of solving various problems.
Meanwhile, the Lifechanyuan International Family Society was formally established as a legal entity.

In addition, the worldwide increase in individuals choosing to remain single, the sharp rise in divorce rates, and the growing ease of international travel and visa access are all major signs that the world has indeed stepped into a New Era.

712. Changes in objective reality do not bend to human free will. When spring arrives, no mountain can stop it. The earth may be frozen solid and everything may seem firm and unyielding, but once the spring breeze blows, the ice melts, the snow disappears, and countless trees flourish with vibrant life. Families, nations, political parties, and religions may appear solid and indestructible, but when the breath of the New Era arrives, they will inevitably collapse. Nothing is truly unbreakable.

713. In the New Era, humanity will neither be governed by the rule of law nor by the rule of man, but by the rule of Tao.
The core of Tao governance is to follow the way of the Greatest Creator.
The core of the Greatest Creator’s way is the way of nature.
And the core of the way of nature is harmonious coexistence—between individuals, between individuals and society, and between humanity and nature.

714. The way to live in harmony with others is to bring them joy, delight, freedom, and happiness.

715. The way for individuals to coexist with society lies in the principles that “no talent is left unrecognized, and the world becomes one family,” and that “honesty prevails—lost items remain untouched, and doors need not be locked at night.”
Blessings are shared, hardships faced together; global affairs are coordinated, and resources shared by all.

716. The way for humanity to coexist with nature is to ensure that green mountains endure, clear waters flow forever, skies grow ever bluer, and the landscapes remain beautiful and majestic.
The soil remains rich and fertile, fish and shrimp thrive in abundance, wild animals live free from harm, and domesticated animals are treated with kindness.
May birds sing and flowers bloom everywhere, favorable winds and timely rains bring harmony to every season.

717. In the New Era, the Lifechanyuan funeral system will be implemented: the deceased will be cremated, and their ashes scattered over rivers, lakes, seas, green mountains, or open fields.
No tombs will be built, no ashes preserved, no memorial halls erected—no trace will be left behind.

718. In the New Era, no one will celebrate personal birthdays.
Only natural festivals will be observed—such as the Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, Mid- Autumn Festival, and the Water-Splashing Festival.
All festivals related to gods, Buddhas, Celestial Beings, individuals, nations, political parties, religions, or militaries—including Christmas and Buddha’s Birthday—will no longer be observed.

719. In the New Era, people will no longer exchange gifts, nor hold celebrations or accept presents for events such as relocations, promotions, or birthdays.

720. In the New Era, no churches, temples, shrines, Taoist monasteries, or mosques will be built.

721. In the New Era, the interests of all humanity take precedence over local and personal interests. Personal and local interests must yield to the greater good of all.

722. Everyone will realize their full potential and make the most of every resource. Everyone will have a home and meaningful work.

723. The saint acts through non-action and teaches without words.

724. Do not exalt the worthy, and the people will not compete.

725. Do not prize rare goods, and the people will not steal.

726. Do not display what is desirable, and the people’s hearts will remain calm.

727. By transcending superficial sainthood and abandoning shallow cleverness, one attains true enlightenment; by embodying true compassion, one goes beyond hollow righteousness; by mastering higher skills, one is freed from the pursuit of profit.

728. The Tao is revealed through nature, which manifests its laws; all moralistic preachings are to be discarded.

729. Accomplish great things without taking credit.

730. One who embodies the Tao:
Dwells in a good place,
Keeps a heart deep and still,
Meets others with kindness,
Speaks with sincerity,
Governs with simplicity,
Manages affairs with ability,
Moves in harmony with the seasons.

731. A hall filled with gold and jade cannot be preserved. Pride in wealth and status brings about one's own downfall. Step back once your work is complete—this is the Way of Heaven, the flow of Nature.

732. We benefit from what exists; we are served by what does not.

733. Those who cherish the world as their own body are fit to be entrusted with it; Those who love the world as their own life are worthy to be given its care.

734. Those who align with the Tao, the Tao welcomes them. Those who align with virtue, virtue embraces them.
Those who align with loss, loss accepts them.
Those who align with the devil, the devil takes them in joy.
735. One who walks with true skill leaves no trace;
One who speaks with true skill leaves no flaw;
One who counts with true skill needs no tallies;
One who closes with true skill uses no locks, yet none can open; One who binds with true skill uses no rope, yet none can untie. Thus, the saint skillfully redeems all, leaving none behind; Skillfully cherishes all, discarding nothing.

736. The world is a sacred vessel—it must not be manipulated or seized. Those who try to manipulate it will ruin it;
those who try to seize it will lose it.

737. Let go of excess, extravagance, and indulgence.

738. True virtue does not act virtuous—thus it is virtue. Lesser virtue clings to virtue—thus it lacks virtue.
739. When Tao prevails, there is no need for virtue.
When virtue prevails, there is no need for benevolence.
When benevolence prevails, there is no need for righteousness. When righteousness prevails, there is no need for propriety.

740. There is no greater misfortune than discontent. There is no greater fault than the craving to possess.

741. When governance is dark and obscure, the people are simple and pure.
When governance is sharp and meddlesome, the people grow cunning and restless. Misfortune leans upon fortune; fortune conceals misfortune.

742. The Way of Heaven benefits without harming. The Way of the saint acts without contending.

743. In this New Era, everyone should practice life cultivation (yangsheng), aiming to stay healthy and prevent illness by refining essence (jing), vital energy (qi), spirit (shen), and the physical form. To cultivate life, begin by cultivating the heart;
To cultivate the heart, begin by cultivating virtue;
To cultivate virtue, align with the Tao.
A true cultivator heals illness before it arises.

Guard the temperament to preserve spirit. ⚫ Favor mild flavors to nourish blood.
Refrain from anger to protect lung qi.

To refine the body, first still the mind:

Settle the spirit within; cast off desires without.

744. Principles of Yangsheng (Life Cultivation):
Overeating burdens the body.
Sensual indulgence clouds the spirit.
Excessive thoughts disturb the heart.
A restless heart dims the spirit; without spirit, the Tao remains out of reach.
Exhaust the heart—vitality fades. Overwork the body—it weakens. Strain the spirit—it empties.

Deplete qi—life is severed.
To preserve wholeness:
Restrain thoughts—spirit remains.
Speak less—qi remains.
Curb lust—essence remains.
Diet shapes destiny:
Meat dulls the mind and body.
Vegetables bring clarity.
Grains cultivate wisdom.
Qi sustains the spirit.

Oversleep dulls the spirit.
Frequent drunkenness disperses qi.
Excessive sweat depletes blood.
Exhaustion harms the body.
Rushing about in carriages disrupts qi and startles the spirit.
Climbing to great heights scatters the corporeal soul (po) and causes the spiritual soul (hun) to flee.

749. The Five Organs and Inner Harmony:
Unmoved by praise or blame, the liver wood stays calm.
Move and rest with reverence, the heart fire stays balanced. Eat moderately, the spleen earth remains whole.
Breathe gently and speak little, the lung metal remains intact. Be content and desireless, and the kidney water is replenished.
Eat before hunger; stop before fullness.
Overeating harms the spleen; going hungry injures the stomach. Overdrinking scatters qi; excessive thirst damages the blood. Greedy indulgence bloats and harms heart and lungs.
Guard the back of your head from wind while sitting or lying down— Wind at the back of the head shortens life.

Let not your heart chase delusions.
Purify the mind and lighten desires.
Live simply, in serenity and emptiness.
Find stillness within motion.
Nourish the kidneys by calming the heart.
Let peace and leisure carry you through the years.

751. When the liver’s essence is not preserved, the eyes become dizzy and lose their brightness. When the lungs’ essence is weak, the muscles become thin and frail.
When the kidneys’ essence is depleted, spirit and energy decline.
When the spleen’s essence is not secured, the hair falls and the teeth loosen.
Any physical activity should not be excessive—too much will harm your qi.
But complete stillness is also harmful—without movement, qi and blood will stagnate.
Do not overwork your body, nor disturb or deplete your essence; thus you may attain long life.
If your eyes look without fixation, your ears listen without grasping, and your mind remains unknowing, your spirit will guard the body, and the body will endure in longevity.

752. Eight Places Where One Should Not Live
• Do not live in dirty or disorderly places.
• Do not live where noise is constant.
• Do not live where gossip and conflict prevail.
• Do not live where worldly distractions are abundant.
• Do not live on steep or uneven land.
• Do not live in damp and dark places.
• Do not live where the air is stagnant and heavy.
• Do not live near graves or temples.

753. Those who respect life:
Even in wealth and power, they do not indulge in pleasures that harm the body. Even in poverty and hardship, they do not exhaust themselves chasing profit. They often let go of desires, and thus their minds remain calm.
They purify their hearts, and thus their spirits grow clear.
But be warned—many things can harm body and mind:
Excessive thinking and forced memorization strain the spirit. Worry, joy, sorrow, and grief wear down vitality.
Extreme fear and unchecked delight disturb the heart. Unresolved anger and endless craving deplete energy. Imbalance of Yin and Yang brings harm.

754. Water, Wood, Houses, and Man
Water flows far because it has a source.
Trees grow lush because they have roots.
Houses stand upright because they have firm foundations. People live long because they preserve their essence.
755. Pillow Height:
A pillow that is too high may suppress liver energy.
A pillow that is too low may hinder the lungs’ energy flow.
Signs of Energy Loss:
Tears from the eyes indicate leakage from the liver.
A runny nose signals leakage from the lungs.
Excessive saliva suggests depletion of kidney energy.
Sweating while awake reflects leakage from the heart.
Night sweats point to loss from the small intestine.
Drooling during sleep reflects leakage of brain.
Dreams of intercourse with ghosts indicate leakage of the spirit. Excessive sexual activity drains the vitality of the entire body.
When the Vital Energies Are Full:
When spirit is full, one does not long for sleep.
When qi is abundant, one does not crave food.
When essence is complete, one has no sexual desire.

756. The harm to avoid:

In a day: overeating.
In a month: excessive drinking.
In a year: overwork and anger.
In a lifetime: beginning the day with anger or resentment.
Abide in oneness, rest in peace, cast off scheming, let go of thinking.
Grief—tears from both eyes;
Pungency or bitterness—nasal discharge;
Long-held anger—results in goiters;
Sudden rage—causes ulcers or abscesses.
What the heart desires, qi will follow. Nothing is left unformed. Thus, the wise restrain grief and bitterness, and guard against anger.

757. The Harmony of Yin and Yang
When Yin and Yang fail to unite, it leads to illnesses caused by stagnant blood and blocked qi. Those who live in emotional isolation and sexual deprivation are prone to illness and a shortened lifespan. On the other hand, excessive indulgence in sexual desire also depletes life force. Rich, greasy foods disturb the intestines and generate phlegm.
To maintain good health:
Breakfast should be light and consumed early.
Lunch should be hearty and filling.
Dinner should be light and modest.
Follow these rhythms, and illness will not find you, even in old age.

758. Live in Ease and Simplicity
Live freely and without striving.
Desire nothing, and avoid planning or scheming.
Whether moving or resting, in haste or in leisure, abide in this ease. Preserve the Three Treasures
• When the kidneys remain undisturbed, essence stays whole.
• When the body is not overworked, qi remains intact.
• When the heart is quiet and untroubled, the spirit remains clear.
Natural Attainment
When essence, qi, and spirit are each complete and undisturbed, one naturally becomes a celestial being.

759. Poverty and lowly status are not shameful in themselves. To fawn and beg from others—that is disgraceful.
Wealth and status are not true honors.
To use them for the good of the world—that is true honor.

760. To obtain fame and fortune that one is unworthy of—what seems a blessing will end in misfortune.
To endure poverty’s hardest trials—bitter suffering turns sweet in the end.

761. Wealth and high status often bring disaster.
Only sincerity, kindness, and humility can prevent great misfortune. Clothing and sustenance are predestined;
Only thrift and simplicity can make them last.

762. Heaven and Earth endow each person with a conscience. Losing it, one becomes no better than a beast.
The saints and sages always teach the righteous path.
To abandon it is to walk ever amidst thorns.

763. There are no truly naïve people in this world—how, then, can one justify deceit? All people bear suffering—how can anyone alone indulge in ease and leisure?

764. When the wise possess great wealth, it dulls their will;
when the foolish possess great wealth, it magnifies their flaws.
Thus, to hoard riches for one’s descendants is to sow harm without end.

765. Even in times of ease, never forget the face of hardship.
Though fortune may at times favor the lucky, never harbor a heart of wishful thinking.

766. To champion a misguided cause is to sow calamity.

767. To build a career or achieve success, ground every step in reality—the slightest craving for fame leads to false outcomes.
To teach the Way and cultivate virtue, root every thought in emptiness—even a hint of calculation draws one into worldly dust.

768. With a mind ever wakeful, one dodges divine bows and ghostly arrows; With a heart unstained, one slips free from earth's snares.

769. A single merciful thought is the budding root of life for all beings, and a steadfast resolve against wrongdoing is the pillar upholding Heaven and Earth.
Thus, a noble person cannot bear to harm even an insect, nor covet the slightest thread or strand.
In this way, they give life to all beings and embody the heart of Heaven and Earth.

770. When fame and fortune pass, reflect on their end, and attachment fades. When hardship and poverty arise, trace their source, and resentment dissolves.

771. When Heaven intends to ruin a man, it first lures him with petty favors—so welcome fortune not with joy, but with the strength to bear it.
When Heaven intends to bless a man, it first warns him with small misfortunes—so meet adversity not with fear, but with the wisdom to overcome it.

772. To fight for inches in a flash of flint—how much time is left?
To argue rank upon a snail’s horn—what greatness is there to gain?

773. Know that every triumph holds the seed of ruin—then seek success without obsession. Know that all life ends in death—then preserve it without exhausting yourself.

774. In silk-draped halls, remember the ache of poverty. In the pulse of youth, feel the sorrow of old age.

775. Blame not small faults, reveal not private shame, recall not past wrongs— these three nurture virtue and avert harm.

776. Those who gladden others are rich in heart; those who bring joy are rich in spirit; those who bring happiness are rich in worldly goods.

777. Clinging to life brings endless trouble; embracing death yields infinite gain.

778. To oppress the poor is to dishonor the Greatest Creator; To show mercy to the needy is to honor Him.

779. Rather than hastily pitch tents and build houses on shifting sands, better to first lay a firm foundation.

780. Do not trade high principles for petty favors.
Do not cloak personal desires in public opinion.
Do not highlight others' flaws to display your strengths.
Do not resent others' talents because of your own shortcomings.
Do not oppress the weak and lonely with power.
Do not kill animals recklessly for a fleeting taste.
Do not stifle unique insights due to popular doubt.
Do not discard others’ words out of stubbornness.
Do not trust blindly and fall prey to trickery.
Do not let emotions take the reins.

781. You cannot summon blessings—cultivate joy and they will come; You cannot flee misfortune—banish malice and it will pass you by.

782. Overindulgence invites disaster; erratic behavior portends ill fate.

783. The true man seeks no blessings;
Heaven, finding no desire, enlightens his inner heart. The cunning man schemes to avoid misfortune; Heaven, perceiving his intent, strips away his spirit.

784. Live with a clear conscience, and you’ll fear no midnight knock. In all things, keep nothing hidden—Heaven watches from just above.

785. Offend not in the unseen, and no calamity will find you in the light. Emerge from filth unstained; know cunning, yet never employ it.

786. The beauty of all things is the masterpiece of the Greatest Creator; through it, we behold His love for humanity.

787. Merit does not erase fault.
No matter how great the merit, every wrongdoing must bear its pain and consequence.

788. Education, self-discipline, and inner cultivation are essential lessons in life.

789. Cosmic geometry shows that our world is not Euclidean: circles may distort, parallel lines may meet or diverge, and triangle angles may not sum to 180 degrees.
So never reject seemingly irrational ideas—different realms bring different understandings.

790. Wave-particle duality tells us that the way things move—indeed, their very nature—depends on the observer’s consciousness. Different minds shape different realities.
Therefore, heaven and hell exist, just as the rich and the poor do. The 800 Values for New Era Humanity will bring peace and happiness to the world.

791. Superstring theory appears to bridge the gap between general relativity and quantum theory. It suggests that strings do not move in ordinary three-dimensional space, but in higher dimensions beyond our imagination.
Our previous understanding of space was mistaken—it is not limited to three dimensions, but may span ten or even twenty-six.
Every paradox and contradiction contains a point of harmony. If we cling to what we believe is an "absolute truth" and refuse to expand our awareness, we will never resolve them.

792. The universe is holographic, and humans are one with it. The flutter of a butterfly’s wings in Alaska could stir a storm at the Cape of Good Hope.
So never underestimate your smallest effort—even a single cough may shake the heavens.

793. Why can’t scientists establish a Unified Field Theory? Because they recognize only four forces—gravity, magnetism, the strong force, and the weak force—while failing to see four others: the force of structure, the force of repulsion, the force of intention, and the force of spirit.
This shows that both science and religion have their blind spots. The only path to resolve them is through Hundun Theory.

794. If a thorn pricks your toe, your brain senses it instantly. If it doesn’t, it’s not because the thorn isn’t there, but because the brain is either dull or malfunctioning.
The world is about to undergo great change. Those with keen awareness have already sensed it. If you haven’t, then shift your thinking, and reset your views on life, values, LIFE, and the world.

795. When you believe you are right, you are already wrong.

796. There are eight Ways in the mortal world:
The Way of the Greatest Creator
The Way of gods
The Way of Buddhas
The Way of Celestial Beings
The Way of Humans
The Way of Animals and Plants
The Way of Ghosts
The Way of Devils

797. If your earthly ties remain unresolved, you must return through reincarnation. If your debts remain unpaid, you must come back to repay them.

798. If you cannot find the answers to your confusion in human history or accumulated knowledge, then read the Book Without Words.

799. “True transmission lies in a single sentence; falsehood fills ten thousand scrolls.”
In truth, even one sentence is too much. The true essence is contained in a single word: xing—true nature.
(This “nature” is the “gate to all wonders,” the Tathāgata, the primordial Hundun, the nonmaterial structure of LIFE, the Buddha, the consciousness of the Greatest Creator, the essence of the universe, the laws of the Tao, and the principles of LIFE’s operation.)

800. The 800 Values for New Era Humanity is an open system. As time and space shift, new thoughts, perspectives, and methods will continue to emerge. These values must be continually refined and updated.
As the times evolve, outdated parts should be removed, and new ones added. We must never cling to rigid thinking, nor set a ceiling on the system.
While the Hundun Baby is present in the world, additions and deletions are to be made by him. After his departure, this task shall fall to the saints among humankind. Others should not make changes, lest the system lose its Hundun nature.
