Completely Negate the Old Forces' Arrangements

By a Falun Dafa practitioner in the U.S.

(Clearwisdom.net) I have a relative who misunderstands Falun Dafa. I have tried to tell him the truth over the past few years, but despite various approaches, I failed to get through to him. He knows some facts about the persecution and knows a little about Falun Dafa, but he is not able to look at things from the right perspective because of his various notions.

When others talk about him, I always say, "He is too stubborn to change." Yesterday, I was thinking about how to help him to understand Falun Dafa correctly. Suddenly I realized that I have been acknowledging the arrangements by the old forces all along. I acknowledged his character and his way of thinking arranged by the old forces and only tried to change him on this basis. This is exactly one of the primary reasons that had prevented him from correctly understanding Dafa and the Fa rectification.

During the long history of the universe, the old forces made thorough arrangements based on their wishes, covering each person, each event, all the human traits, and whatever each person is supposed to encounter in life. These arrangements have severely blocked and suppressed human beings' correct understandings of the Fa rectification. The true self, however, should not contain such bad characteristics.

In this life, I have taken many things for granted, and thought that this was just how things should be. Actually it is not so. Master says,

"You should also be clear that 'natural' does not exist, and 'the inevitable' has reasons behind it." ("Expounding on the Fa" from Essentials for Further Advancement)

The Fa rectification is most sacred. It cannot and should not be interfered with by any life or any events. Any hindrances should be completely negated and expelled, including what I once took as "natural" existences and "inevitable" occurrences.
