Break Through the Barriers With Powerful Righteous Thoughts and Rescue Charles Li By a Dafa practitioner in the U.S. (Clearwisdom.net) Today I read the article "Some Thoughts Upon Witnessing Scenes from
Other Dimensions of Rescuing Charles Li" ,
and I was greatly shocked. I heard about the arrest of Charles Li, yet I am one of the indifferent practitioners in U.S.
this article referred to. I didn't see this incident clearly based on Fa principles and busied
myself with things I thought were important. I was even dragged by human thoughts and pursuit of
comfort. I always thought as long as there are some people rescuing him, I would do whatever I'm
responsible for. In fact, isn't selfishness deeply hidden in this indifference? I felt this incident
is far away from me as if it has nothing to do with me. Master said, "The next person's things
are your things, and your things are his things," ("Teaching the Fa at the Washington,
D.C. Fa Conference") yet I didn't treat it as my own concern. After reading today's article mentioned above, I picked out related articles regarding the arrest
of Charles Li and read through them. Gradually, I have gained a little clearer understanding about
this incident. The arrest of Charles Li is not as simple as the arrest of other Dafa practitioners from the
surface. Jiang was sued in the U.S. and he has asserted pressure on the U.S. Foreign Affairs
Department for a long time. The Chinese consulate in the U.S. issued Charles Li a visa and then
arrested him inside China. They want to take advantage of this arrest to coerce the U.S. government. No matter how it appears on the surface, we Dafa practitioners are a whole body. During this last
stage, everything will still be difficult. No matter when and where a practitioner encounters
something, it is not merely that particular practitioner's problem. The best solution would be the
field of righteous thoughts from all Dafa practitioners. I remember a Dafa practitioner saying that he reads articles on Clearwisdom Net everyday. The
content of the reports on Clearwisdom Net can be treated as some of the most important messages
about Dafa. It also includes the situation of Dafa practitioners around the world, which places need
our support, which places need us to eliminate the evil field with righteous thoughts together, and
we can also better understand the situation of Fa-rectification through reading those reports. Looking at Charles Li's photo, I was ashamed of my indifference, selfishness and
irresponsibility. When I clearly look at this past period of time from the perspective of Fa
principles, I suddenly saw the countless excuses I made for myself, and the unexpected and
complicated interferences I encountered. I use righteous thoughts to eliminate the notions that have
created the excuses for myself, and to eliminate evil elements that use those excuses to persecute
Charles. If all Dafa practitioners understand it clearly from the perspective of Fa principles, from
the depth of their hearts, the evil would disperse like a cloud of smoke. The above is my personal understanding, please point out anything inappropriate. February 12, 2003 Posting date: 2/16/2003 |
