By a Falun Dafa practitioner from Shandong Province

(Clearwisdom.net) I heard two practitioners talking about their experience with sending righteous thoughts during a sharing occasion. It enlightened me and all the other practitioners at the sharing, reminding us that we must pay more attention to sending righteous thoughts. I hope my article can remind those who slack off or don't pay much attention to sending righteous thoughts.

Practitioner A's third eye is open. When sending righteous thoughts, A could immediately see many ancient warriors fly out of his body with swords and other weapons in their hands. Following the order of the righteous thoughts, these warriors eliminated the evil spirits and demons fiercely and mightily. The scenes were very magnificent. The warriors return to his body from all directions when he stops sending righteous thoughts.

One time a practitioner was persecuted by the old forces' rotten demons and became seriously ill. This practitioner had severe headaches and was bedridden and couldn't do the three things Teacher has asked of us. Practitioner A and others surrounded the sick practitioner and cleared their own dimensions and thoughts first. Then they started to send righteous thoughts to eliminate all evil factors and lives. Practitioner A saw with his third eye that with their powerful righteous thoughts, a black furry ape-looking creature with large ears fell off the sick practitioner. The creature fell on the ground and struggled to get back onto the sick practitioner. The practitioners continued to send righteous thoughts and shortly after, the creature turned into a splash of black liquid. The manifestation in this dimension was that the sick practitioner recovered from his illness. Practitioner A witnessed the mighty power of sending righteous thoughts and knew he should value it even more.

Practitioner B is a veteran practitioner. In earlier stages of Fa-rectification, B was very diligent in doing the three things. Later on, due to various interferences, B's will and persistence wore off. One night, at about midnight--the global time to send righteous thoughts--B felt sleepy and her attachment to comfort rose, "This time won't make that much difference. I'll do it tomorrow." She gave up and laid down. Immediately after she fell asleep, four characters appeared in her dream. They read, "All Previous Efforts Wasted." B didn't receive much education, so she only remembered the sounds of the words but didn't know what they meant. During a sharing occasion, she anxiously asked a younger practitioner the meaning of the characters. As soon as she realized what they meant, it was like a hammer hitting her on her head: a "Stick Wake-up." I realized compassionate Teacher tries to give hints to practitioners who do not pay attention to the seriousness of sending righteous thoughts.

Teacher has talked many times about the importance of sending righteous thoughts. In the recent "Fa Teaching at the 2007 New York Fa Conference (Q&A)," he said:

"...when Dafa disciples around the world send righteous thoughts together at the same time, the power is boundless. So, if each person had been able to handle this matter with very strong righteous thoughts and been doing it very well from the beginning, then perhaps there would be no evil remaining now."

Now practitioners know sending righteous thoughts is an essential one of the three things. The three things harmonize one another. If we had fundamentally believed in Teacher and the Fa with pure intentions, we wouldn't have ignored sending righteous just because we couldn't see its power and had doubts. Practitioners A and B's stories remind us that, in Fa rectification cultivation, to clarify the truth and save sentient beings we must progress more diligently as the end approaches and we must pay serious attention to sending righteous thoughts.
