The Sixteenth National Party Congress Is Not A Concern of Dafa Practitioners
By Hongmei, a practitioner from China
(Clearwisdom.net)
As Falun Dafa practitioners, we have all been thinking about how to maximize
the effectiveness of our righteous thoughts to clear away the evil elements in
other dimensions that are artificially propping up the evil head. In this way,
we can create a peaceful environment in which to save sentient beings before the
manifestation of the Fa-rectification of the human world, and minimize the
undermining of the Fa by evil elements.
We have come to realize that the original arrangement made by the old forces
was to begin the manifestation of the Fa-rectification of the human world
immediately after the persecution of the Fa has ended. At that very moment, the
future positions of all beings will be set. However, if we can eliminate all of
the evil elements that undermine the Fa prior to the manifestation of the
Fa-rectification of the human world, then we will have circumvented the old
forces' arrangements. In doing so, we will be able to create a peaceful
environment in which to clarify the facts and save sentient beings.
Personally, I think that some practitioners recently had a common
misunderstanding that does not accord with righteous thought, and I would like
to share this observation with all my fellow practitioners.
Some practitioners have pinned their hopes on the coming Sixteenth National
Party Congress. [This is the sixteenth national meeting of Party
representatives, during which new party leaders will be chosen and the political
powers will be transferred to these new leaders.] They hope that with the
conclusion of the Sixteenth National Party Congress, the evil head will step
down and the whole environment will change. However, I think that this kind of
expectation is based on the premise that the Fa-rectification process can be
influenced by the actions of non-practitioners. If we pin our hopes on the
Sixteenth National Party Congress, aren't we pinning our hopes on
non-practitioners? Isn't that going to be an excuse of the old forces for
continuing the so-called test? We should be clearheaded in our understanding of
the Fa. We should firmly believe that the abilities we have cultivated from the
Fa will definitely enable us to clear away the evil and stop the persecution,
thus creating a new epoch with a new future.
Teacher said, "This Great Fa of the cosmos is to leave for sentient
beings at different levels in different periods of history a reference for
when problems occur in different periods at different levels, and is to
leave for beings ways of handling all kinds of situations that occur at
different times in history." [From Guiding the
Voyage, "Teaching the Fa at the 2001 Canada Fa Conference."]
Then how can non-practitioners possibly be allowed to exert any influence during
the current Fa-rectification process?
Whenever the evil head comes out of its den, it is imperative to take full
advantage of the opportunity to eradicate the evil elements in other dimensions
that have been artificially propping it up, and we should do so with
determination. However, with that goal being clear, we need to keep a correct
attitude, which is
"Do but pursue not ---- Constantly in the Dao."
[From Hong Yin, "In the Dao", provisional translation
subject to further improvement.]
We will achieve a better effect if we do not become attached to the pursuit
of results. We should strengthen our righteous thoughts until we clear away all
ofáthe evil elements from all dimensions, as what actuallyáhappens
with the head of the evil in this dimension and how people react to
thatáhave no bearing on what we should do as a part of Fa-rectification.
