Thoroughly Eliminate the Evil Spirit and Uphold Righteous Thoughts and Acts

By Li Xiuping, a Falun Dafa practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) In the past few months, many practitioners in China have been arrested and many websites that are used to clarify the truth have been sabotaged. There are two reasons for this. One is internal, which is due to our lack of Fa study or diligence in sending forth righteous thoughts, or because we have not used wisdom to clarify the truth, have not paid attention to the exercises, or have not looked inward when problems occur. The other is external. The evil beings in other dimensions have been controlling the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to take Dafa as its enemy and target Dafa practitioners for persecution. For example, Luo Gan, a key leader in persecuting Falun Gong, stressed on December 7, 2004 on behalf of the CCP during the national conference for the country's political and legal systems, "We must deepen the fight against Falun Gong and other organizations and reinforce the task of fighting against evil cults." Luo's speech was published on Qiu Shi, a mouthpiece journal of the CCP. It shows that it is the CCP that chooses to be the enemy of Dafa. It also demonstrates the CCP's evil nature of "deceit, wickedness, and violence."

In this regard, I would like to share my preliminary thoughts with my fellow practitioners:

First of all, we must eliminate any interference and diligently and whole-heartedly study the Fa. When studying, the key is to be calm and peaceful, and we must not have the tendency of pursuing the frequency of study but ignoring the quality. We cannot study the Fa superficially or with an anxious heart.

Secondly, we must be persistent in sending forth righteous thoughts. We must not take it as something extraneous or disbelieve our own abilities in doing so. In addition to increasing the frequency, the key to sending forth righteous thoughts effectively is to maintain a peaceful heart and righteous thoughts. It is no good when we are not calm or if our mind is not clear. Moreover, we must recognize that sending forth righteous thoughts is an important part of validating the Fa. It is a war between good and evil and between life and death. It is one of the most important aspects of eliminating evil beings.

Thirdly, we must completely abolish the idea of hoping the CCP will redress its mishandling of Falun Gong. We must have a clear understanding of the CCP's evil nature. Although the collapse of the CCP could happen at any time, it will certainly put up a last ditch struggle before dying off. It will continue to persecute Falun Dafa practitioners at any price and poison sentient beings. Therefore, we must not overlook the evil of the CCP and be vigilant in order to minimize or avoid losses. We should clarify the facts with our righteous thoughts and acts, and strive to help those who have been brainwashed by the CCP to understand its evil nature. In addition, we must use righteous thoughts to get rid of the CCP's control and to cleanse ourselves of its spiritual and mental influence on us. In this physical dimension, this means getting rid of the monitoring, shadowing, and phone tapping by wicked people, and letting go of any illusions we may have about the CCP.

Fourthly, when there is disagreement among fellow practitioners, we must look inside first, correct any mistakes, and proactively reconcile in order to reach the harmonious state of being one body. In order not to leave any loopholes for the evil, we need to act with wisdom.

Finally, we need to properly arrange time for various Dafa activities including studying the Fa, sending forth righteous thoughts, clarifying the truth, and doing the Dafa exercises. Busy doing other Dafa work, many fellow practitioners have been neglecting the importance of doing the exercises. They do not have a good understanding of the relationship among the four aspects. Studying the Fa is the ultimate guarantee for practitioners; sending forth righteous thoughts and clarifying the truth are Dafa's special requirements for the practitioners in the Fa-rectification period; and doing the exercises is the supplemental means for Dafa practitioners. All four areas are mutually related and none should be neglected.
