Study the Fa and Send Forth Righteous Thoughts from the Heart
(Clearwisdom.net)
After studying Teacher's "Fa-Lecture at the Conference in Florida,
USA", I realized the importance of Fa study and sending forth righteous
thoughts. I would like to share and discuss my understanding with you all.
Please kindly correct me if there's anything improper.
I am a Dafa practitioner who had been persecuted by the evil for two years,
who walked out of the forced labor camp with dignity and righteousness. I was
always under strict surveillance when I was in the forced labor camp, so I was
unable to study the Fa well. The only thing I knew about sending forth righteous
thoughts was to recite the verses silently from the heart to eradicate the evil,
and to do it at five, six, and seven o'clock every Sunday. I didn't know how to
do the hand gestures. After I got out, I studied the Fa as well as sent forth
righteous thoughts to eradicate the evil, but there was always interference.
There were always bad notions popping up in my head while studying the Fa,
sending forth righteous thoughts or practicing the exercises. The attachment of
fear also interfered with me when I was delivering large amounts of truth
clarification materials. I realized that if I kept going like this, the evil
would be able to take advantage of the loopholes and I wouldn't be able to do a
good job of rectifying the Fa and saving the world's people.
I was very confused and did not know what to do. It was at this time that
Teacher's "Fa-Lecture at the Conference in Florida, USA" was
published. Teacher said, "No matter how difficult your environment is, no
matter how busy you get, you cannot forget to study the Fa. You must study the
Fa, because it is the absolute, most fundamental guarantee of your improvement.
I can't meet with every student, especially with the current situation in
Mainland China. And under these circumstances where our students aren't able to
see me, they can't come find Master whenever there's an issue, so they can only
take the Fa as the Master. And in order to enable you to do cultivation practice
and improve, I've infused this Fa throughout with every element that can enable
a person to improve and ascend through cultivation. As long as you study, any
problem can be solved. As long as you cultivate and as long as you're able to
understand the Fa from the Fa, there's nothing you can't achieve."
I understood the reason I was being interfered with was because I hadn't
studied the Fa well. I was the kind of person Teacher refers to as "When
your eyes read the Fa and yet your mind isn't on the Fa." So I started to
set for myself strict requirements to study the Fa from the heart. Meanwhile I
realized I had not placed enough emphasis on sending forth righteous thoughts.
Also this was an important reason why the evil was able to persecute and
interfere with me. Teacher said, "Let me tell you, all those who remain and
that can persecute Dafa and Dafa disciples are due to our students themselves.
Students who haven't taken sending forth righteous thoughts seriously: the evil
in the dimensions that you are supposed to shoulder and be responsible
for has not been eliminated. That's the cause. So you must take sending forth
righteous thoughts seriously. No matter whether you think you have the ability
or not, you should do it. What you eliminate from your own mind are ones which
have an effect within the expanse of your own body; at the same time, you need
to eliminate the external ones, which are directly related to the dimensions
you're in. If you don't eliminate them, then they not only persecute you and
restrain you, but also persecute other students, other Dafa disciples." I
understood that sending forth righteous thoughts is a very serious matter, it is
essential for eliminating the evil in Fa-rectification; it is a precious means
to cultivate ourselves, ascend to realms of higher levels and save the world's
people. If we don't take it seriously and fail to do a good job, it will not
only affect our personal cultivation practice, but also Fa-rectification, truth
clarification and the saving of the world's people.
Hence, with my efforts to study the Fa and send forth righteous thoughts from
the heart, I now experience less interference. I'm able to deliver truth
clarification materials with ease and no longer feel fear.
At present, police departments of different regions in our city are madly
arresting Dafa practitioners. I realized we have humanly restrained our divine
side. We should send forth righteous thoughts to instruct our divine side to
eradicate the evil. Therefore when sending forth righteous thoughts I tell
myself, " I'm a Dafa disciple assisting Teacher in rectifying the Fa. My
responsibility and mission is to save sentient beings and their corresponding
gigantic systems. What I'm doing is the most righteous and the most sacred
thing. The evil is not worthy of persecuting me. From now on I instruct the
parts that I have successfully cultivated, and the numerous divine beings,
guarding deities in my system, to proactively eradicate evils wherever I go.
I won't allow their existence, not to mention their persecution." As soon
as the thought was sent out, a huge amount of energy burst out of my body, and I
knew I had opened up my divine side.
We Dafa disciples completely oppose principles of the old cosmos. We
understand the Fa from the standpoint of the Fa, send forth righteous thoughts,
save the world's people, display the power of our divine side and assist Teacher
in rectifying the Fa.
