Bring the Power of Righteous Thoughts into Full Play
By Falun Gong practitioner Jinglian from Weihai City, Shandong Province
(Clearwisdom.net) There have been a lot of articles regarding the
importance of sending forth righteous thought at set times posted on the Minghui
Website (Chinese version of Clearwisdom.net). I would like to share my recent
understandings. If there is anything incorrect in my thinking, please kindly
point it out. Many working practitioners have a hard time sending forth righteous thought
at 12 a.m., and I am one of them. One time when I did not wake up to send
righteous thoughts, I had a dream. In the dream, I saw a net in the sky made of
light over Dongshan Hotel. (Whenever Jiang or other party leaders came to Weihai
City, they always stayed there.) I said to a fellow practitioner, "The evil
is coming again. Do you see the net over the sky? This strong net is formed by
practitioners sending forth righteous thoughts together." While I was
talking, a skeleton with an octopus body approached. I instructed the fellow
practitioner, "Send forth righteous thoughts quickly, the evil is
coming." The practitioner said, "Why didn't I see it?" I thought
that my celestial eye had probably opened. Therefore, we stood back to back,
held one palm erect, and recited the Fa-rectification verses. The evil was
eliminated quickly. Then, I woke up and realized that it was just a dream. On
the second day, I told my dream to my husband (also a practitioner). I asked him
if this dream was Master's hint for us to send forth righteous thoughts at 12
a.m. He said, "Yes." On the second night, I set an alarm and thought that everything should be
okay. However, I shut it off without waking up and overslept again. Immediately,
I had another dream. I wanted to go to a labor camp to visit an illegally-jailed
fellow practitioner, because I had heard that her condition was not good. When I
arrived, the camp guard did not allow my visit. What could I do? My desire to
visit her and encourage her was so strong that I thought I must tell her my
thoughts. Suddenly, I arrived at the cell right beside hers. I thought,
"How could I let her know? I will write." Therefore, I picked up a pen
and wrote something on the wall. Before I finished the first sentence, I saw
water droplets come out from the wall. I realized those were her tears; she
could feel me. After waking up, I still remembered those two phrases I wrote,
"So long as the will is firm, the hard pestle grinds to the needle."
Later in the dream, other practitioners and I went to the labor camp again. We
wrote Master's article on a high wall outside the labor camp, with Master's name
at the bottom. When the imprisoned practitioner came out to work, she could see
the article on the wall, "Your body lies in prison - don't be sorrowful, don't be sad "Don't Be Sad" (Hong Yin II, English version B) Upon seeing Master's name, she burst into tears. Up to today, the
recollection of the dream is as if it had taken place right before my eyes. When
I think of practitioners in prisons, so in need of outside practitioners'
support with righteous thoughts, I cannot dare to relax again. The above stories were from my personal experience. My intention of sharing
them is to remind all practitioners that we must not ignore sending forth
righteous thoughts at set times around the world. This is what the evil fears
the most, and is the most direct help to practitioners in difficult situations. Let's review Master's lecture in "Fa-Lecture at the Conference in
Florida, U.S.A.": "Let me tell you, all those who remain and that can persecute Dafa and
Dafa disciples are due to our students themselves. Students who haven't taken
sending forth righteous thoughts seriously: the evil in the dimensions that you
are supposed to shoulder and be responsible for has not been eliminated. That's
the cause. So you must take sending forth righteous thoughts seriously. No
matter whether you think you have the ability or not, you should do it. What you
eliminate from your own mind are ones which have an effect within the expanse of
your own body; at the same time, you need to eliminate the external ones, which
are directly related to the dimensions you're in. If you don't eliminate them,
then they not only persecute you and restrain you, but also persecute other
students, other Dafa disciples. As you know, the persecution that Dafa disciples
in Mainland China suffer is quite severe, so each student has to truly, clearly
realize what his responsibility is, and when he sends forth righteous thoughts
he has to be able to truly calm his mind and truly produce the effect of
righteous thoughts. So this is something extremely critical, extremely
important. Then if every student is able to do that, I can tell you, with five
minutes of sending forth righteous thoughts together, the evil in the Three
Realms will never exist again--that's how important this is." October 16, 2006
