By a practitioner in North America

(Clearwisdom.net) I would like to share my experiences in view of my recent tribulations and thoughts after receiving news from an article on Clearwsidom that Iceland, due to pressure from China, refused to issue visas to Chinese and Taiwanese passport holders. Let us prevent the evil from taking advantage of us and complete our sacred duty of assisting Master in rectifying the Fa in the human world together.

When I first thought of going to Europe to participate in sending forth righteous thoughts from a close distance, wave after wave of tribulations began to assault me. My company suddenly went bankrupt, and my family treated me oddly. The foundation laid by years of cultivation enabled me to face everything with a clear and compassionate mind. My heart was not moved, and I was able to calm down to study the Fa, send forth righteous thoughts and clarify the truth. Especially after reading Master's latest three poems, I further felt Master's immense benevolence, and his hope and trust in practitioners' being able truly step out of human mentalities.

Even though I was able to attain a degree of tranquility, the evil tried frantically to bombard my mind with all kinds of attachments. I realized that I must deny and eliminate all of the evil's arrangements. I started to send forth righteous thoughts and added in the thought: eliminate all of the evil's arrangements that have been placed upon me. However, I felt that something stood in the way of my righteous thoughts. After I calmed down, I discovered a deeply hidden attachment. There was nothing wrong in eliminating the evil's arrangements, but I should not have overly emphasized the arrangements involving "me." In reality, if we do as Master taught us, we will be able to achieve the desired result. After I further purified my thoughts, I felt that my righteous thoughts are so powerful that they can break through anything. I felt that all human matters are so insignificant and no longer thought about the matter of distance on the human level. My pure righteous thoughts were like waves crashing through the dimensions below my level, eradicating the evil's hiding places.

Although the evil is trying to stop practitioners from sending forth righteous thoughts at a close distance, they are simply speeding up their own elimination. How can practitioners' minds be moved by their arrangements? No matter where we are, our righteous thoughts to "eliminate the evil factors controlling the head of evil" cannot be moved, and we will not be interfered with by illusions.

I realized that the process of Fa rectification is totally controlled by Master. Today, the evil that has done so many malevolent deeds will enter the gate of no-life, and no one can stop this. As "Fa-rectification period Dafa disciples," we must "rise above human understandings and notions," ("Cautionary Advice" from Essentials for Further Advancement) and let go of all attachments before we can become Dafa particles. In this way, we are being responsible to all sentient beings and fulfilling the sacred duty given to us by Master.

Master said in "Cautionary Advice" from Essentials for Further Advancement, "If every one of you can understand the Fa from the bottom of your heart, that will truly be the manifestation of the Fa whose power knows no boundary -- the reappearance of the mighty Buddha Fa in the human world!"

The above are my own understandings. Please point out any incorrect understandings.
