Deter Interference, Improve as a Whole, and Work Diligently as a Team
(Clearwisdom.net) Due to the nature of my job, I can only contact two or
three fellow practitioners on a regular basis. Through my conversations with
them, I have learned about their cultivation conditions. Here, I would like to
write out my understandings and share them with fellow practitioners. I feel
that in this last period of Fa-rectification, we must let go of all attachments
and do everything Dafa disciples should do, such as improving ourselves as a
whole, raising ourselves to higher levels, and firmly taking every step. But if
instead, we sow discord, blame each other, focus on others' rights and wrongs,
always think that what we say is correct, and ignore looking into ourselves,
then who will be happy? Only demons and evil beings will be happy.
Falun Dafa is a piece of Pure Land, one where there should be increasing
purity and kindness among Dafa particles. How could little contradictions
arising in doing work for Dafa and small trifles in everyday life make some
practitioners unwilling to talk to each other? At present, the old forces are
trying by every means to undermine Dafa and everything in Dafa work. They use
the human thoughts and notions practitioners have remaining to damage our
overall progress in Fa-rectification. They try to make practitioners who
cooperate with each other have conflicts so that they can interfere with Fa-rectification.
"Because any desire you have can become an attachment and you can be used
by the evil. As soon as that kind of thought emerges, the evil might conjure a
false image for you, and this will then cause interference" (Lecture on
the Fa at the Washington, D.C. International Conference). I am reminding all
fellow practitioners that we must view everything from the perspective of the Fa-rectification,
get a clear understanding of the demon's evil purposes, seriously send forth
righteous thoughts to eradicate these demons, and by all means not allow them to
harm our "one body."
On the other hand, because we still have omission, the demons can take
advantage of these. In order to form an indestructible whole body, we must not
evade the conflicts among practitioners, nor regard them with a passive
attitude. To be responsible for Dafa and ourselves, we must use mighty righteous
thoughts to calmly eliminate all selfish and dirty thoughts, and those materials
that have deviated from the Fa, no matter how many or whether they are yours or
other practitioners'. Those thoughts and materials must be totally eliminated
because they are factors which can be used by the evil to interfere and
undermine Fa-rectification and ruin Dafa disciples. If everyone does this, there
will be no more dimensions for demons to exist in.
Some of the practitioners' articles on the internet have pointed out that
these demons are always hiding among practitioners, but when they come out to
interfere, we cannot handle them properly and blame each other for the wrongs.
If we have not reached the state of diamond particles without omission, we must
look inwards and purify every thought, just as weeds on both sides of a straight
road should be cleaned out. We must remember those fellow practitioners who are
suffering persecution, and also those Dafa disciples who gave up their lives.
Teacher said, "If during this period you cannot do well with what you
should do, this Consummation stage can only be a cultivation process, and it
cannot fundamentally be Fa-rectification disciples' true and final Consummation.
If during the evil's persecution a Dafa disciple doesn't do well or slacks off,
it's very possible all his previous efforts will have been for nothing."
"Cultivation and Fa-rectification are serious. Whether you are able to
treasure this period of time is, in fact, a matter of whether you can be
responsible to yourselves. This period of time will not last long, but it can
forge the mighty virtue of magnificent Enlightened Beings, Buddhas, Daos, and
Gods of different levels, and even Lords of different levels. It can also
destroy overnight a cultivator who has become less strict with himself." (Fa-Rectification
Period Dafa Disciples)
Fellow practitioners, if we do not do well in this last moment, how long
would we still let the evil run rampant in this universe? How much longer would
we let those fellow practitioners in jails suffer? And how many innocent beings
would we still let struggle in the abyss of misery until they are exterminated?
Let us remember what Teacher said, "Disciples, be diligent! Everything
that's the most magnificent and the most wonderful is developed in the process
of your validating Dafa. Your vows will become testaments of your future."
(Fa-Rectification Period Dafa Disciples)
There is also one thing of my own that I would like to write about in order
to let our fellow practitioners draw a lesson. Because of my desire for sleep, I
missed the global sending forth righteous thoughts at 5:00 am and 6:00 am one
Sunday. In my dream, I saw the evil chief criminal Jiang Zemin coming to my
dimension to hide. I immediately recited Teacher's verse to eliminate the evil
but he managed to run away. After waking up, I was regretful and felt bad. I
realized that sending forth righteous thoughts was not an individual action, but
rather one which advanced the progress of Fa-rectification. Because of my own
negligence, I interfered with this progress. So, I ask every practitioner to
take sending forth righteous thoughts every day seriously.
If anything I said was not proper, please point it out and correct it.
