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. Posting date: 12/21/2007 |
