My View on the Latest Developments in the Organ Harvesting Situation By a practitioner in China
(Clearwisdom.net) The "Minghui Weekly" (issue 221)
disclosed that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is speeding up their slaughter
of innocent Falun Gong practitioners, in an effort to destroy the evidence of
its organ harvesting from live practitioners at Sujiatun concentration camp,
other labor camps, prisons, underground concentration camps, and hospitals, etc. That beckoned the thought, "Teacher said what the evil is really afraid
of is exposure!" If we understood this remark from within the Fa
and exposed the evil, the evil should be weakened and eliminated. How come it
became more evil? Besides, the CCP is the most wicked evil cult. Are there
problems among Dafa practitioners that need to be addressed? Teacher said that everything in this world is influenced by Dafa
practitioners' thoughts. I looked within, and with Teacher's benevolent and
compassionate guidance, I recognized some common problems that trouble many
practitioners, including myself. Here, I wish to share my thoughts with fellow practitioners. 1. Interference by the Premise, "Fighting Evil with Evil" The CCP's criminal activities, especially the organ harvesting from living
practitioners, has reached such depravity that it is beyond anything I could
imagine. After it was brought to light, we were shocked, and felt such pain as
if we were suffering the same pain that our fellow practitioners, the victims,
suffered. My human sentimentality [qing] toward practitioners increased
the pain. I looked at the issue with ordinary human thoughts and without
realizing that I was filled with hatred and anger. I treated everyone who
perpetrated this evil as an enemy. When sending forth righteous thoughts, I
wanted to eliminate all evil spirits, ugly ghosts, and dark minions on the spot.
I wanted that all those perpetrating this horrendous crimes suffer the same pain
they inflicted on their victims. My xinxing sank and became one with the premise,
"fighting evil with evil." I even hated the policemen that were around
me. This premise is exactly on the old forces' level, which holds that everyone
that they thought was bad had to be eliminated. Eliminating everyone who
participated in atrocities is also an old force arrangement. They wanted to have
those people destroyed by Dafa practitioners. The old forces are using this
human sentimentality of "hatred," and thus they control the evildoers
even more firmly. I heard and saw that fellow practitioners used words that we discarded quite
some time ago when describing Sujiatun concentration camp, such as "Wolves
in Sheep's Clothes," or "Butcher in White Uniform," and so on. In
fact, these words fit very well, but they show clearly that our hearts are not
calm and that our minds are affected. Practitioners are facing a test - the test of what we should have in our
hearts, which is "Peace and Compassion." We need to end and disavow
this crime, a crime that was initiated by the old forces. We need to save all
sentiment beings that are being controlled by the old forces. We need to
disintegrate, destroy and eliminate all of the CCP's evil spirits and dark
minions. Impatience and hatred are to be discarded, as they cannot affect the
outcome as required under the Fa. This attitude only indicates that we have sunk
to the level of ordinary people. This is where the evil wants to take advantage
of our loophole and our weaknesses. 2. Forbearance and Compassion Toward All Lives The Dafa practitioners who are saving sentiment beings with their compassion
despite their own suffering and dangers are magnificent. But, when I faced
danger, I forgot about sentient beings. My heart wanted to protect fellow
practitioners, including myself. I forgot about the horrible future that awaits
those poor people who participated in the crimes. I held no more compassion
toward them. I was angry and wished revenge on all of them. If only one or two
practitioner thought this way, it might not matter much. But if many of us
focused on hatred, we have lost our compassion. If we wished them to be
destroyed, isn't it a weakness of ours? Won't the evil use this weakness to
increase the persecution of practitioners, so they would send those who
participated in the crimes to hell? Some of those people may still have a chance
to be saved. Isn't the fate of life and death of those lives based on a single
thought of Dafa practitioners? What we should consider is that the persecution of our fellow practitioners
is a persecution of all of us. But, we should also see evil's persecution of all
those people who perpetrated the crimes. Let us not forget all sentiment beings
that are involved. If we hate these individuals when we condemn the crimes, we
may forget that there are some poor souls who are being controlled by the CCP.
One of Dafa practitioners' duties is to save people with our compassion. Teacher
said: "See the human world with eyes of compassion, Then are you freed from
the spell of delusion." ("Success at Consummation" from Hong
Yin) Only when I go beyond hatred and look at those who perpetrate the
crimes against Falun Dafa with compassion, will I cry for those lives who will
get destroyed. At those times, I hold more firmly the wish to annihilate, destroy and
eliminate all evil and all evil crimes in the world. At those times, I want to
give one more chance to any life that can be saved. Compassion is a state, which
is crucial to our mission. It is by no means equal to a compromise with and
tolerance of the evil. First, we should "use our righteous thoughts to stop the evil."
Teachers said in his lectures that our righteous thoughts must continue as long
as inhuman crimes are still perpetrated. We could use our righteous thoughts to
transfer the pain of practitioners to the people who are committing the crimes.
This is also an effective way to stop the evil. 3. Righteous Thoughts for Complete Elimination of All Evil The objective in the rescue of practitioners is to "completely opposes
everything arranged by the evil old forces " ("Dafa is
Indestructible" from Essentials for Further Advancement II). We need
to destroy the evil, stop sentiment beings from committing crimes against Dafa
or Dafa practitioners, and show our compassion to sentient beings. Those
practitioners being rescued must improve in accomplishing the three
things Teacher assigned to us. We are not just rescuing them from
suffering and difficulties. We understood when sharing among us -- the establishment and actions of the
Coalition to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong, is the perfect way to
totally end the evil CCP's persecution of Dafa, Dafa practitioners. The Fa-rectification
is progressing rapidly. My fellow practitioners, our thoughts need to catch up
with the progress of Fa-rectification! We must deny, completely deny the persecution of the evil CCP toward Dafa
practitioners, including all forms of detainment, and all methods used in the
persecution. We must look within and find any thought that agrees with the persecution,
regardless of whether we feel that we are not a match for the evil and that we
are somehow helpless, and regardless of whether we have become numb. We should not watch the back of the evil. We cannot just come for the rescue
of fellow practitioners and send righteous thoughts when we find that there is
persecution perpetrated. What we need is to completely, totally stop this
persecution, and keep in our minds the fact that it can never happen again. Each
practitioner needs to erase the root of the old forces, and "completely
opposes everything arranged by the evil old forces " ("Dafa is
Indestructible" from Essentials for Further Advancement II). Are we clear on the Fa? I think this is for all practitioners to consider. Please kindly point out if there is anything that is not within the Fa. Written: April 28 2006
