The Levels of LIFE

Ⅴ. The Levels of LIFE

In terms of the nonmaterial structure of the spiritual nature, LIFE can be divided into sixteen (16) levels, they are from top to bottom:

Level One: The Greatest Creator

It possesses a perfect nonmaterial structure and its psychic energy is able to penetrate all matter and space-time without any hindrance.

Level Two: Gods

They possess defective non-material structures and their psychic energy is able to penetrate all materials and most of space, but can not enter into the Zero World and can not compete with the Greatest Creator.

Level Three: Celestial Beings and Buddha

All Celestial Beings and Buddha are at the same level of LIFE, and only have ”racial” differences.

Based on their “magical powers”, Celestial Beings can be divided into the following five (5) categories in descending order:

Super Celestial Beings
Deity Celestial Beings
Land Celestial Beings
Human Celestial Beings
Ghost Celestial Beings

Let us examine each in greater detail:

1. The basic features of Super Celestial Beings are that they are unlimited by time and space constraints, are responsive to subtle changes throughout the universe, are responsive to the consciousness of the Greatest Creator and Gods, and rapidly respond to the consciousness of the Greatest Creator and Gods. Super Celestial Beings can be visible or invisible, tangible or intangible, and they have ever-changing magical powers to be in thousands of incarnations and exist in different LIFE spaces at the same time. Super Celestial Beings’ base camp is the Celestial Islands Continent of the Elysium world.

2. The basic characteristics of Deity Celestial Beings are that they are unable to change into thousands of incarnations, yet they have magical power, can speed across the sky, be invisible, and can transform; they can come and go freely between Yin and Yang Space. They are non-materialist and can discern past and future. They can travel enormous distances at relativistic speed. Deity Celestial Beings dislike living in groups and do not have base camps. They “travel everywhere they want and do whatever they like”. Except for the Zero World and the Heaven World, they can come and go anywhere which is the so-called “powerful and unconstrained style of independence”.

3. The basic characteristics of Land Celestial Beings are their longer lifespans, fewer physical needs, immunity to diseases, lack of worries, their abilities to walk on the surface of water and through solid walls, to fly through the air, and to travel thousands of miles without feeling tired. The basic camp of Land Celestial Being is the Ten-thousand-year world. They may occasionally appear in the mortals world, but ordinary people cannot see them or recognise their presence.

4. The basic characteristics of Human Celestial Beings is that they have physical bodies, but higher levels of consciousnesses than ordinary people. They understand many secrets, such as the structure of the universe, 36-dimensional space, the origin of the universe, LIFE and humankind, the transformative mechanism of causality, and the law of the transmigration of LIFE. They are sages who have attained Tao and possess perfect human nature. They possess no private property and neither confront nor compete. They take things as they are, associate with others by following predestined relationships, act in accordance with human nature, and take advantage of opportunities as they arise. Human Celestial Beings clearly understand the next stage of their LIFE, so they have no fear of death in any sense and have escaped from the shackles of it. The community of Human Celestial Beings is the Thousand-year world. One in ten-thousand people in the human world possess the quality of Human Celestial Beings. A human who can take one further step will join the ranks of the Human Celestial Beings.

5. The basic characteristics of Ghost Celestial Being are: The flesh is dead but the consciousness still remains in the LIFE of the human world. They are transformed generally from those extremely intelligent people who were success oriented.

According to the nature of Buddha, Buddhas can be divided into the following ten categories:

Buddhas in the Supreme Authentic Wisdom Continent belong to Mahayana.

Those Buddhas of the secondary category live in:

The Gods Continent

The Moon Temple Continent

The Three Worlds Two-way Continent

The Celestial Islands Continent

The Amita-Buddha Continent

The Yingwu Continent

The Kasyapa Continent

The Lotus Continent belong to Hinayana

No Buddhas are actually in the mortal world, but only some “Nature of Origin”. Once this Nature of Origin is reached, the physical body will immediately become pari-nirvana and the LIFE itself will reach the primary level of Buddha - the Lotus Continent.

Level Four: Devils

Devils are incarnations of Buddha. They are brief but extreme performances of Buddha while practicing self-refinement. The powers of Devils are greater than those of Buddhas and can easily reach those of gods. The Greatest Creator attends to the matter when a great quantity of Devils emerge and restrain them in the Cathode Black Hole Body.

Level Five: Humans

We are a kind of physical LIFE on earth that uses vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch, and spiritual perception. We do not possess the abilities of supernatural transformation and must live on food. According to our origin, people can be classified into these five categories:

Ignorant people
Laity
Mortals
Sages
Celestials

We will describe each type:

Ignorant people rely on instinct for survival and whose previous existence was a tree or a lower animal

Laity rely on desire for survival and whose previous existence was a higher animal, livestock, or a flying bird

Mortals focus on relationships in their lives and whose previous existences were a laity or mortals

Sages rely on reasoning in their lives and whose previous existences were Celestials or Sages

Celestials rely on their spiritual natures in life and whose previous existences were Celestials or Human Celestial Beings from the Thousand-Year world.
In addition, one in ten million people in human society are Celestial Beings from the Ten-Thousand-Year world, Buddhas from the Elysium world, or Gods from Heaven and are carrying special missions.

Level six: Birds

Flying Birds are a kind of LIFE who live in four-dimensional space. Their wisdom is lower than ours, but they have more freedom and their space for activities is larger than ours. Flying Birds are gregarious and belonging to cooperative living species. Red-crowned cranes are the top level of flying birds and they enjoy longer lives and have high spiritual natures. Other cranes, storks, and wild geese are at the secondary level. Eagles and owls are at the third level. Warblers, parrots, and hummingbirds dwelling in the forest, pigeons, crows inhabiting in broad areas, and mandarin ducks, egrets, and other ducks living by water are at even lower levels. Poultry and other flightless birds with wings, such as ostriches, are at the lowest level of birds.

Level Seven: Flowering plants

Flowering plants refer to all those flowering but infertile plants, including some flowering but fruitless trees and herbs. Flowering plants possess a very high spiritual nature. They are almost imitations of flowering plants in the Ten-Thousand-Year world. In addition to beautifying nature, the main function of flowering plants is to serve the sages and celestials and to remind or enlighten those people with high spiritual nature not to forget the existence of the Deity Celestial Being world and to self-cultivate to the Ten-Thousand-Year world.

The highest grade of flowering plants are peonies.

The top grade of flowers include:

Chinese herbaceous peony

Chinese flowering crabapples

Lotus

Daffodils

Wintersweets

Sweet-scented osmanthus

Plums

Lunar September chrysanthemums

Magnolia denudata (Yulan magnolias)

Azaleas

Orchids

Epiphyllum

The middle grade flowers are:

Roses

Cloves

Clivias

Spring orchids

Chinese hibiscus

Albizia julibrissins (Mimosa, Silk tree)

Indian Kalimeres herbs

Jasmine

Winter jasmine

Laurels

Tulips

Chrysanthemums

Cacti

Echinopsis tubiflora

The lowest grade of flowers are:

Catkins

Reed catkins

Rattan flowers

Day lillies

Water caltrops

Level Eight: Livestock

Livestock are under our control and protection and directly serve our needs. Although they are not as free as wild animals, their survival danger is lower than theirs. If wild animals were compared to “illiterate people”, domestic animals would be disciplined “high school students or university students” trained by “civilization”. Wild animals only know how to obtain, whereas domestic animals know how to dedicate.

Level Nine: Wild LIFE on Land and Aquatic LIFE in the Sea

Level Ten: Trees

Level Eleven: Insects

Level Twelve: Herbs and Crops

Level Thirteen: Microbes and Fungi
Level Fourteen: Demons and Monsters in Hell

Level Fifteen: LIFE in the Frozen Layer

Level Sixteen: LIFE in the Fiery Layer

The levels of LIFE are mainly divided into the above categories according to the spiritual nature of their LIFE. The higher level of LIFE, the higher grade of freedom, the higher the living standard and quality of LIFE will be, and vice versa.

That is to say, gods do not want to become Celestial Beings or Buddhas, Celestial Beings and Buddhas do not want to become mortal, mortals do not want to become birds, birds do not want to become flowers, flowers do not want to become domestic animals, domestic animals do not want to become wild or aquatic animals, wild and aquatic animals do not want to become trees or crops, and so it goes.

Our direction in the development of LIFE should be to go toward higher spaces of LIFE. Ignorant people should develop in the direction toward laity, then toward mortals, sages, and celestials, then Land of Celestial Beings, Deity Celestial Beings, Super Celestial Beings and Buddhas.

The path of LIFE is very clear. From the perspective of space, people in the mortal world should strive for the Thousand-Year world, Human Celestial Beings in the Thousand-Year world should strive for the Ten-Thousand-Year world, and Land Celestial Beings in the Ten-Thousand-Year world should endeavor to reach the free Deity Celestial Beings. Deity Celestial Beings wandering worldwide should strive to become Super Celestial Beings in Elysium world, which is the top level of LIFE. Humans can never become gods and the exclusive role of the Greatest Creator has already been filled. This is all as clear and simple as a piece of white paper.
