We Must Be Clear on the Fa to End the Persecution
(Clearwisdom.net) I had quite an awakening after reading the article
"My Understandings of 'Immediate Retribution in This Lifetime'" on
Clearwisdom. (http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2007/8/1/88223.html) The article talked about the saying, "When it's time, all good and evil
will be rewarded respectively" and how this was a warped notion of the old
cosmos. Following this principle, although a person will receive retribution, it
is not immediate. When will the retribution happen? Maybe in the person's next
life or maybe two or more lifetimes later. In these cases, when a person is
reincarnated, his memories from the previous life are erased, and he does not
know his misfortunes are a result of evil deeds from before. This does not have
the effect of shocking and suffocating the evil, awaking the world's people, and
restraining people's bad thoughts and behavior at all. The Chinese Community
Party's atheist theories has led people to not believe in retribution, which is
why people dare to do evil to no end. Mankind has slipped to the brink of
destruction. This is also one reason why Falun Dafa disciples have been
persecuted so severely today. "Fa rectifies heaven and earth; Immediate retribution in this
lifetime." I understood that this is a principle of Master's new cosmos.
Only with immediate retribution can people's bad thoughts be restrained and
rectified. However, because we have not been clear on the Fa principles and have
accepted the principles of the old cosmos in our minds, the old forced have used
it to brutally persecute us until today. This is a lesson stemming from our lack
of depth in Fa study and our inability to merge into the Fa. We have always said that we would not accept the evil arrangements by the old
forces. However, we have followed the old forces' principles even until today.
If we continue like this, how can we end the old forces' persecution? In "Teaching the Fa at the Conference in Vancouver, Canada, in
2003," Master said, "Why was it that when Jesus saved people and was doing such a huge
good deed, the beings in the Heavens controlled things like that? And why'd
they even have him crucified? It appeared that he was suffering for humans'
sins, but why would a God have to suffer for mankind's sins? Why didn't higher
Gods intervene? Why couldn't Gods directly reduce humans' sins? In the past,
these were laws in the cosmos--everything was like that. From my perspective
it's because the old cosmos's Fa lacks wisdom in this regard, so next time it
won't be like this." After studying Master's Fa, I thought I understood: In the future, the gods
who offer salvation to people will not suffer as we did. Master has changed the
principle. Yet I have not connected Master's Fa with our Fa-rectification
cultivation. Instead, I thought what Master taught was something that was only
related to things after the Fa-rectification. In "Teaching the Fa at the Western U.S. International Fa
Conference," Master said: "In fact, what I want to establish and the problems that I intend to
resolve during the Fa-rectification include no longer having divine beings who
come down to save people be persecuted by the sentient beings in the Three
Realms." Again, my understanding was incorrect. I thought Master was only saying that
after the Fa rectifies the cosmos, gods who come down to save people will not be
persecuted. In my mind, I still accepted the principles of the old cosmos. This
was actually a passive acceptance of the persecution by the old forces against
Dafa disciples. I was following the principles of the old cosmos to cultivate. Every situation in the human world is a result of Dafa practitioners'
thoughts and actions. Why is the persecution able to last until today? Why
haven't we realized the need to end the persecution until today? Our lack of
diligence has caused unmeasurable damage for the Fa-rectification and sentient
beings, and has exacerbated the Master's suffering. As Dafa disciples, our
enlightenment quality has been too poor. We should be ashamed to face Master. As Dafa disciples who are establishing a path for future cultivation,
shouldn't we walk a path free of persecution? In the arrangement by Master for
the Fa-rectification, Dafa disciples should not be persecuted. Why do we accept
the persecution, then? Dafa disciples must completely deny the persecution,
which was forced upon us by the old forces, and disintegrate the evil CCP. We
need to give sentient beings an opportunity to choose, without external
pressure, whether they want a bright future and eternal life, or whether they
want to be eliminated. How do we end this evil persecution? First of all, Dafa disciples must completely deny this persecution and
recognize the urgency of the matter. The presence of the CCP impedes and
negatively affects the salvation of sentient beings. If we give it one more day
to live, then more beings will lose their opportunity to be saved. We must
completely eliminate all factors of the CCP's evil spirit. We must also send forth righteous thoughts well and eliminate all evil beings
and factors in other dimensions. Our righteous thoughts should not stop until
the evil is disintegrated. We should recognize this: this persecution,
regardless of its form, is conducted by those controlled by evil beings and
factors in other dimensions. Dafa disciples should use the Buddha Fa's
supernormal capabilities bestowed by Master to end this illegal persecution. We
should truly demonstrate the power of "The Fa rectifies the cosmos; the
evil is completely eliminated. The Fa rectifies heaven and earth; immediate
retribution in this lifetime." The perpetrators of the crimes and the
world's people should see the heavenly principle of retribution. Then those who
do evil will not dare to do more evil, and this persecution will not be able to
be sustained. The evil will soon lose. We should use all possible means to spread the Nine
Commentaries on the Communist Party and to clarify the facts about the
persecution of Falun Gong, so that they will withdraw from the CCP. When the
world's people are awaken, the evil specter of the CCP will not be able to
possess people. It will lose every space in which to survive and will naturally
disintegrate. Therefore, clarifying the facts is a sharp tool for ending this
persecution. Let us break through the principles of the old cosmos with every thought of
ours, rectify everything, and establish a path that meets Master's requirement. |
