A Dafa Practitioner's Experience in Chicago By a Dafa practitioner in Canada
(Clearwisdom.net) Recently, I have felt restrained. Because my husband does not practice Falun Gong, and because
there have been many conferences in the recent past, I felt uneasy about attending the Chicago
Experience Sharing Conference on the 20th. Although I realized it was very important to
send forth righteous thoughts during the week in Chicago, I also thought it wouldn't make too much
of a difference if I could not go. But, while dealing with this confusion, I decided to leave for
Chicago only the day before. While in the car on my way to Chicago, my condition was good, because "the enlightened
side"of me prodded me to take the trip. I was very clear about the purpose of the trip, and
therefore, I self-consciously and continuously sent forth righteous thoughts from the minute I got
into the car. As I did, I felt energy surrounding me. We arrived at the Chinese Consulate in Chicago and found the weather was very pleasant and sunny.
The fellow practitioners from Houston told us that it had been cold, windy, and rainy a few days
ago. They had continuously sent forth righteous thoughts for a long time, and the weather became
better. As I started to send forth righteous thoughts, my legs grew very painful, which surprised me. In
the past, when I sent forth righteous thoughts for a long period of time I never experienced
discomfort, but this time after I sat in front of the Consulate for an extended time, every particle
of my body felt heavy. I can say, I only endured it with persistent strength. This kind of contrast shocked me, as the interference directly manifested on my body. I was
sleepy, tired, and in pain; I could not settle down, and wanted to move. On the one hand, I thought
it was because I had not studied the Fa enough and my condition was not good. On the other hand, it
reflected the fact that the pressure in Chicago is huge. The fellow practitioners had pains in their legs and experienced tiredness on a large scale.
Almost all the interference manifested in the physical bodies and the human world. Our driver
suddenly developed a pain in his right leg. We sent forth righetous thougths for him, and told him
to think, "Falun Dafa is good," and only then did he become a bit better. In addition, our
car nearly got into an accident on the way there, and later one of the tires blew out. Because the pressure is quite huge, we need more fellow practitioners to undertake this task
together. Although it is difficult, I do feel we are breaking through the individual conditions. After
being here for two days, I broke through my numbness. I feel linked up with the field of my
enlightened side, and the righteous thoughts are really working. I believe the types of pressure we experience in Canada and Chicago are different, and the
corresponding roles are absolutely different. What is needed now are the collective powers of fellow
practitioners in every realm, yet only few people are here. I feel the holistic presence is not
enough. It is not easy for the fellow practitioners in Chicago, and there are too few practitioners
sending forth righteous thoughts in front of the Consulate. This effort is ongoing, and its importance is not as obvious as directly sending forth righteous
thoughts towards the head of evil. The later it comes, the more it tests the endurance, Xinxing and
enlightment quality of practitioners. The more it comes to the superficial side, the higher the
requirements will be for the practitioner's human side. The current conditions are that I can sit longer, but the pressure on my legs continues. The
interference has not stopped, but I am eliminating it one layer after another, and breaking through
one realm after another. Personally, I feel it is because I have not studied the Fa enough, that I
can't achieve the present proper standard of righteous faith in the Fa, and am being interfered with
via layers and layers. This is not achieved through talking or thinking, but, by solidly building a
foundation through studying the Fa. Therefore, it is very important to study the Fa more, adjust the correct mentality, and together
thoroughly eliminate the evil in Chicago. Those practitioners who can't go to Chicago should try
their best to go to local Consulates. I believe this works better than staying at home. No matter what the result, by looking at the current situation, the old forces are gathering
their power to sustain themselves with all their effort. Many evils and rotten demons in other
dimensions have gathered in Chicago. We usually look for them everywhere, and now they have arranged
their weaponry and delivered it to our door. Isn't it natural to eliminate them all from other
dimensions? The lawsuit against Jiang is not a formality. Please, certainly, try your best to send forth more
righteous thoughts.
