Drive Out Interference and Accept Only Master's Arrangements
By a Falun Dafa practitioner from the Yanbian Area
(Clearwisdom.net) A while ago, I had a dream. In the dream, a fellow
practitioner approached me and said anxiously, "What should I do? I still
can't get completely free of the old forces' arrangements." I could only
heave a sigh. At that moment, I felt that many Falun Dafa practitioners could
not totally break free from the old forces' control. They were therefore in
danger and could be persecuted by the old forces at any time. I was very
worried. Then, a decisive, strong and loud voice came from Heaven: "Follow
Master's arrangements!" I then woke up. Upon awakening, I contemplated many things. At the beginning of the
persecution, I believed that Master would never let his disciples be imprisoned
and tortured; this was not in line with the Fa-principles that Master taught.
Based on the Fa, I enlightened to the understanding that this persecution was
created by the evil. We should drive out the evil interference with
determination. We should only accept Master's arrangements. Each time I
understood that we should drive out the evil interference, a voice would appear
in my head: "You have this thought because you are afraid of suffering, and
you are pursuing comfort." Individual cultivation stories of Jesus and
others would appear in my mind simultaneously. At the beginning, I was not sure
whether I was right. However, I drove out all everyday peoples' attachments, and
I enlightened with a pure heart based on the Fa. I was finally able to repel
this interference. Once, a fellow practitioner said to me, "I had a dream before. I saw
that all of us who spread Master's articles were arrested. All the fellow
practitioners in my dream were caught. Why weren't you caught?" Actually,
when other practitioners were arrested, I clearly felt that I would be the next
one. However, I then calmed down and thought things through based on the Fa. I
believed that this was definitely not Master's arrangement. I would only accept
Master's arrangement. At that moment, I clearly felt something rotate in another
dimension, turning 180 degrees. Immediately, I felt safe. Master said, "But even so, if our righteous thoughts are very strong, then we're in
line with a law in the cosmos, and this law holds in both the old cosmos and
the new one: a being's choice is up to him, even if he made some kind of vow
in history. At critical moments it's still up to him what he wants to do. And
this goes for things that are positive and negative--it's the case for
both." ("Teaching the Fa at the 2002 Fa Conference in Philadelphia,
U.S.A.") Accepting only Master's arrangements is a very important part of our
eradicating and completely opposing the old forces' arrangements using righteous
thoughts. Try thinking that all Falun Dafa practitioners have strong, firm
righteous thoughts; let Master arrange everything of ours; hand over those
celestial bodies and cosmoses corresponding and connecting to us, as well as
those beings who have predestined relationships with us, to Master, and let Dafa
arrange everything - this is also the greatest mercy to them. Then, the
immense cosmic bodies will be freed from the old forces' control. I know that
some practitioners are very clear that they accept Master's arrangements, but
their thoughts are not strong enough. They just understand the situation but
have not formed strong enough righteous thoughts. Have you ever thought to let
Master arrange and take care of the countless sentient beings that correspond to
us? January 16, 2004 |
