Understandings Gained from a Missing Passport

By a practitioner in Germany

(Clearwisdom.net) A few days ago, my passport disappeared. I was very worried and searched everywhere for it, but I couldn't find it. I kept thinking about it, whether I was at work, at school, walking, eating, and even sleeping. Where was my passport? Where did I leave it? How could I lose it? Where can I find it? I went looking anywhere there was the slightest chance it could be.

Later, I suddenly realized that I was never this focused when I was doing projects to validate the Fa and save sentient beings. When a regional coordinator e-mailed our group, asking if each of us would support the local Divine Performing Arts project wholeheartedly. I replied "yes," but I did not enlighten to the meaning of "wholeheartedly" at the time.

Have I truly supported the Divine Performing Arts project wholeheartedly? Compared with how "wholeheartedly" I was looking for my passport, I was not doing things so "wholeheartedly" with Fa validating projects. My selfishness was so deeply rooted, and that caused problems.

It is the same case with ticket sales. I suggest that each disciple should look inside to find the source of the problems. Are we doing things on our Fa-validating paths and saving sentient beings wholeheartedly? The bottom line is that, our xinxing must reach the standard.

Recently, after studying the Fa, some fellow disciples shared understandings about the ticket sales in New York. Why has the situation not been positive? Why are ticket sales so slow? I think we need to first negate our wrong and abnormal states. Some fellow disciples said that this difficult situation is a good cultivation opportunity. Of course we can cultivate under any conditions, but we should not conform to this abnormal state. It is just like how we can cultivate under persecution, but we should never acknowledge the persecution. Who dares to block Master's Fa-rectification? The reason the evil dares to interfere is because we disciples have gaps and notions. Therefore, completely negating the current abnormal situation with strong righteous thoughts is vitally important.
