Look Within Oneself

(Clearwisdom.net) A while ago I had contact with a practitioner who was not involved in validating the Fa. Due to my poor understanding of the Fa, I continually picked faults, told tales among practitioners, and dealt with conflicts with human notions instead of looking within. I was doubtful when other practitioners pointed out what was happening. But I soon realized that this could not go on. Through studying the Fa with other practitioners, and reciting the Fa, the phenomenon soon disappeared. I recognized that only the Fa could break all attachments.

The article I recited was "Teaching the Fa in the City of Los Angeles." I thought, "Why do I always look down on others and not look within myself? Some practitioners may not do well but they are my fellow practitioners. Didn't Teacher say that other practitioners' business is your business? I should help if I can be of any help. Shouldn't I still hold righteous thoughts if I cannot be of any help? What have I done? I complain and criticize without a kind heart let alone a compassionate and generous heart. I felt ashamed when I compared my behavior with what the Fa requires of me."

This Fa principle kept unfolding itself and got clearer and clearer to me while I was reciting the article. Before I knew it, the bad substance was gone and I felt my generous heart.

Things became much smoother when I kept correcting myself. I didn't hold any bad feeling when I saw this practitioner again. Nowadays, she and I validate the Fa together.

The reason for this article is to share my experience with others who might hold a similar kind of attachment. Let us always measure everything using the Fa and work together to improve and raise our cultivation levels together!
