By Dafa Practitioner Yang Zi in China

(Clearwisdom.net)

Until recently, I did not realize how heavy my responsibility as a Fa-rectification Dafa disciple was. One day in the latter part of June, as I was sending forth righteous thoughts, the sentient beings within me were acting together with me. Some of the old forces no longer wished to interfere with Dafa while others wanted to persist. The sentient beings within me asked what they should do. I replied: "Save those that you can, assimilate those that can be assimilated, and destroy the remainder." There and then I realized that the sentient beings within the cosmos of a Dafa disciple revered and had total faith in him. At the same time, this realization increased many fold the urgency I felt towards my responsibility for the sentient beings.

Normally, every practitioner is expected to improve according to the teachings of the Fa. That is because every word and deed of the practitioner affects the sentient beings. Teacher said: "The reason is, that gigantic cosmic body is below you, it's almost like your body, because that's how gigantic you are. There are countless sentient beings and countless cosmic firmaments inside there. Your cultivation determines whether those gigantic groups of beings are good or bad, and whether they can be kept or not!" (Touring North America to Lecture the Fa) "In the macrocosm and in the microcosm, all beings are closely watching all these things on the earth. They know Dafa practitioners' every single action and every single thought. Everything that Dafa practitioners do is clearly displayed before the eyes of higher beings. So be sure to do well and win their admiration." (Teaching the Fa at the 2002 Fa Conference in Boston). My practice has proven that what Teacher said is absolutely true. I realize that I must practice, and be responsible to sentient beings and Dafa. Let's all meet the requirements for practitioners during the Fa-rectification period.
