Opinions on the Recent Persecution of Dafa Practitioners
(Clearwisdom.net) Lately, there have been many cases where the evil has
escalated its persecution of and interference with Dafa practitioners, such as
when the Singapore and Indonesian governments began persecuting Dafa
practitioners. There is also the ongoing nationwide arrest campaign against
practitioners in Mainland China as a result of the publishing of "The Nine
Commentaries on the Communist Party," by The Epoch Times newspaper. So why has this happened? I think it is because Dafa
practitioners still have omissions in cultivation. From Teacher's lectures I
have realized that the persecution would not have gotten off the ground if we
had all done well in 1999 when the persecution started. Today, most of the evil
beings in other dimensions have been eliminated and a widespread withdrawal from
the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is gaining momentum. Under these conditions,
however, the evil is still running rampant, showing that many of us still have
omissions. Since Teacher and divine beings in the heavens are watching us
intently and helping us, how can the evil do anything if we have no omissions? I think that many practitioners have slacked off on doing the
three things requested by Teacher. Since the current situation is
getting better and the general trend of quitting the CCP cannot be held back,
some practitioners may have gradually lowered their standards and not worked as
hard on the three things. Their minds are also less pure than before. Not long ago, some practitioners wrote articles talking about
attachments to time. After reading the articles, many of us felt that we should
not be attached to time, yet we failed to examine if we had the attachment
ourselves. Our failure to look within and remove this attachment may have
resulted in the persecution becoming more severe. The closer we are to the end of the Fa rectification, the
more we should steadfastly make progress and do the three things well. A better
environment is the inevitable result of our validating Dafa, and should not be
used as an excuse to slack off in truth-clarification work. Instead, we should
take this environment as motivation to make greater efforts. Teacher said, "Wherever there's a problem, that is where you need to
clarify the truth and save people." (Teaching the Fa at the
Washington, D.C. Fa Conference). When the Singapore government recently persecuted Dafa
practitioners, didn't we learn that the Singapore government was poisoned by the
CCP? Then, hasn't this incident been exposed? Although the evil has taken
advantage of our omissions and persecuted us, it can only carry out its evil
actions in Mainland China and other neighboring countries that are closely
related to it. Then why are we still fearful? We should do well with the three things and walk the last leg
of our Fa-validating path by studying the Fa, steadfastly making progress and
letting go of attachments.
