The Key Focus of the Lawsuit Against Jiang Is Clarifying the Truth and Saving Sentient Beings

Ever since Falun Dafa practitioners worldwide joined efforts in sending forth righteous thoughts to support the lawsuit against Jiang, the phenomena of being too concerned with the outcome of the lawsuit has appeared. When seeing each other, some practitioners would immediately ask, "Is he convicted yet?" Paying attention to the issue of suing Jiang is a good thing, but we need to be clear about the key focus of it. I personally believe that first and foremost we should emphasize clarifying the truth and providing salvation to sentient beings while suing Jiang. We cannot only think about winning the lawsuit, nor should we emotionally look at the matter.

Teacher said,

"When you do things, I consider the process most important, because during the process you can have people see the truth, during the process you can save the world's people, and during the process you can reveal the truth...But you often emphasize the results, instead of fully explaining to them the facts that you should explain during that process. Only when all people know the truth that they should know are you really validating the Fa and clarifying the facts...I was talking about it from the angle of having compassion and saving sentient beings. The key is to stress doing well with what you should do during the process, and the result will be whatever it will be." (Lecturing on and Explaining the Fa at the Metropolitan New York Fa Conference)

I realized from Teacher's words that we must focus on the process of Fa-validation, and explain the facts fully and clearly in order to save more people. We should not be overly concerned about the outcome. If we emphasize the process, then our key focus is on clarifying the truth and saving sentient beings. Otherwise, we would deviate from the main direction of Fa-rectification.

The ultimate goal of our legal action against Jiang is to reveal the hideous intent behind the persecution of Dafa and Dafa practitioners by the Jiang political regime, and to allow more sentient beings to learn the truth about Dafa. Therefore, we must pay serious attention to every aspect of the lawsuit, strive to perform all our tasks well, and to clarify the facts thoroughly and clearly. If we over-emphasize the outcome, we may then leave gaps for the evil to take advantage of and may cause damage to our Fa-validation. Last year, a large number of practitioners put their hope on the 16th Party Congress. As a result the new Politburo was worse than the previous one. This is a serious lesson. We should learn from this lesson. We should take advantage of the worldwide legal action to do better the three things Teacher asked us to do, and accomplish the saving of even more sentient beings, while maturing through the course of validating the Fa.

Above is my limited understanding. Please kindly point out anything inappropriate.
