We Should Not Transfer Our Tribulations Over to Teacher By a practitioner from Dezhou, Shandong Province
(Clearwisdom.net) Many practitioners have written about how they appeal
to Teacher for help dissolving their tribulations when they are enduring
torture. Since they recognized that they were Falun Dafa practitioners, Teacher
did help out. As such, the persecution stopped. Afterwards, the practitioner
would say with many thanks how grateful they were that Teacher had endured the
pain for them. I found this understanding very limited. Teacher has made it very clear that
when evil is persecuting us, we should eradicate it with righteous thoughts and
transfer the pain inflicted by the evil over to the evildoers. Teacher said,
"...as long as that wicked person keeps being violent, keep sending
righteous thoughts."("Stop the Evil Acts with Righteous
Thoughts") In other words, let retribution happen to the evildoers.
However, our fellow practitioners instead transfer the pain to Teacher for no
reason. Teacher is merciful and protective of practitioners. But we should become
more mature. We should not, because of our incorrect thoughts, let the evil take
advantage of our loopholes, thereby pushing the persecution over to our Teacher. We have cultivated for so long, however our supernormal capabilities are not
shown in this dimension. Even new practitioners have cultivated great
supernormal capabilities by following our Teacher. We should not have this
thought of letting Teacher suffer for us. In fact, practitioners are able to not
only protect ourselves, but also save countless sentient beings. Teacher has taught us on numerous occasions about the greatness and power of
Falun Dafa practitioners. We must all have supernormal capabilities and be able
to accomplish the tasks bestowed on us. "I am teaching them something from college, and they always ask me
about an elementary school pupil's things, such as how to guide and use mind
activities. They are already accustomed to that approach. They think that
qigong is like that when, in fact, it is not." (Zhuan Falun) "The Buddha Fa is most profound; among all the theories in the world,
it is the most intricate and extraordinary science. In order to explore this
domain, humankind must fundamentally change its conventional thinking.
Otherwise, the truth of the universe will forever remain a mystery to
humankind, and everyday people will forever crawl within the boundary
delimited by their own ignorance." (Zhuan Falun) To become a divine being we must relinquish distorted human notions. What
Teacher expects of us is a state wherein Dafa practitioners are indeed,
"...presiding over Heaven and Earth, rectify the human realm." (Hong
Yin II, version A) Please do not have Teacher suffer for us because of our
erroneous concepts. Let's get rid of our attachments and human mentalities. In
everything we do and every thought we have, let's catch up with the Fa-rectification
process so our Teacher will not suffer or worry as much. January 29, 2007
