(Clearwisdom.net) As Falun Dafa practitioners, we all know that we are free of illness. Although I've noticed that I do pay attention to some major symptoms, when it comes to minor illnesses or annoyances that cannot be categorized as an illness, I am actually not very concerned about them. For instance, my underarms smell; I have beriberi; sometimes I have phlegm in my throat; during the winter, I have a runny nose with yellowish mucus; etc. Some of these symptoms started before I began practicing Falun Dafa, therefore I did not take them seriously. To me, having the flu with a fever, inflammation, or cancer is recognized as being ill, and naturally these illnesses won't happen to me. And the annoyances I mentioned earlier, because of their minor symptoms, are thus not counted as illnesses. Consequently, I did not completely negate them in my thoughts.

Of course, the end goal of cultivation practice is not to become a person with a perfect body. However, Falun Dafa is a practice that cultivates both mind and body. Imagine that a person with smelly underarms, runny nose, and who constantly coughs up phlegm, goes out to clarify the truth; it could turn people off. Even though I do pay attention to my hygiene, it does not fundamentally solve this problem. Instead, it only alleviates or reduces the symptoms. I think the old forces have made careful arrangements for Falun Dafa practitioners. Their interfering elements exist in something as small as our single thought or action or some minor condition in our bodies.

As the Fa-rectification progresses to the final stage, Teacher and Dafa have even higher requirements for me. We must watch our every thought and action, no matter how insignificant they may seem. For instance, buying special shampoo for dandruff "treatment" and other things of this nature, these can all become attachments. As practitioners we should live our lives in a dignified and righteous manner, and we should choose products freely, without being attached to them.

I hope practitioners who have similar attachments to me watch their every thought and action, and measure them with the Fa to see if they are right or wrong, and whether they should exist or not.

I don't know if my understanding is correct. Fellow practitioners please kindly correct me.
