By a Dafa practitioner in the United States

(Clearwisdom.net) Presently, although persecution and interference still occur constantly, the overall situation of Fa-rectification has gone through a big change, which is manifested in many aspects in this world. Even that portion of the United States population that has long been poisoned by the Chinese Communist Party, and could not previously position itself properly, is moving in a positive direction. Facing the favorable change of situation, with the positive response from everyday people, as Dafa disciples, we should always remember Master's teachings and our mission. We should balance the relationship among practitioners, among everyday people who know the truth and have said positive words or have done positive things for Dafa, everyday people who do not know the truth, and the evil. Especially when we are facing everyday people who are brave enough to support us and speak up for us during the persecution, we should not become so engrossed that we behave like everyday people. We should not treat the three things done by Dafa disciples in saving sentient beings the same as everyday people who uphold justice among human beings. We should not be interfered with by the positive change occurring in society.

Let's remember the benevolent advice that Master gave us in "Teaching the Fa at Western U.S. International Fa Conference" on February 26, 2005,

"I think that no matter how far things go at the end, however bad the interference gets, or if Fa-rectification makes you become completely aware of everything, you still need to cultivate in a noble and upright manner, and not be affected by any positive or negative things--make sure you're not interfered with by any favorable turn of events brought about by the situation or by whatever situation that might arise." ("Teaching the Fa at the Western U.S. International Fa Conference")
