In "Fa Teaching at the 2007 New York Fa Conference," Master said,
"Right now, one important thing that needs to be attended to is the matter of how to save more sentient beings, and it is something Dafa disciples are to accomplish during their current process of achieving Consummation. This is Dafa disciples' mission, a duty that cannot be shirked, something that they must do and must complete."
From my understanding, as Dafa disciples in the Fa-rectification era, we have the selfless and the most sacred mission of saving sentient beings. With the great law of the cosmos that we are cultivating and the great Master who safeguards us, no form of life in the cosmos is worthy of testing us, let alone persecuting us. At every moment we must watch our thoughts to correct ourselves and to assimilate ourselves into the Fa. Our divine thoughts are to thoroughly break the old forces' arrangements and to only follow the requirements set by Master.
The followings are a few of my personal experiences.
Story 1: In September 2005, four fellow practitioners and I went to another region to validate the Fa. Soon after we finished hanging up "Falun Dafa is Good" posters, some informants called the police. A car chased after us and finally stopped right in the middle of the road to block our way. Three police officers shouted, "Don't move!" In this situation we sent forth righteous thoughts and asked Master to strengthen our divine power. Under our tremendously powerful righteous thoughts, they froze right there. With our righteous thoughts, we left the area and arrived home safely by taxi.
We enlightened to the fact that as Dafa practitioners who try to validate the Fa and save sentient beings, what we do is the most righteous thing. When evil tries to interfere with us, our righteous thoughts will destroy them and the Fa will demonstrate its divine power.
Story 2: In November 2006, two other practitioners and I planned to go to a prison to send forth righteous thoughts at a close distance to dissolve the evil and to save our fellow practitioners who were imprisoned there. After one hour of driving, we walked towards the iron gates of the prison. The guard asked us, "Who do you want to visit?" "We want to visit Falun Gong practitioners," a practitioner replied. The guard said, "Only their relatives can visit them." Then three prison guards came at us from behind. They were shouting as they ran. We continued to send forth righteous thoughts as we walked. As soon as the guards caught us, they interrogated us. "We ordered you not to move. Why didn't you stop?" The second practitioner replied, "Why should we stop when you want us to stop?" "We are in charge of this area!" the guard said. Another practitioner replied, "But this is a highway. There is no sign saying we must stop." When one of the guards tried to grab practitioner A's bag to search it, practitioner B responded, "Stealing bags is the act of a bandit!" Since we did not follow their instructions or cooperate with them, they could not prevail. In the meantime, we kept sending forth righteous thoughts and asked Master to strengthen us. Soon after, the guards were too numb to move. One of us started to clarify the truth to them. Also we asked them to go back to the prison. In the end we safely left the area.
From this experience, we understood that while we used the form of this dimension to validate the Fa by going to the prison to send forth righteous thoughts, to broadly dissolve the evil, to save sentient beings, and to save our fellow practitioners from the prison, our hearts were pure. By sending forth righteous thoughts in the divine state, we did the most righteous thing. When evil tried to interfere, the Fa naturally demonstrated its divine power to punish it.
Story 3: In April 2007, a practitioner went to another area to clarify the truth. A few people decided to quit the CCP after learning the truth from him. When he was clarifying the truth to a guard, the guard started to call the police on his cellphone. Finally the police came to arrest him. The practitioner thought that with only a few truth clarification pamphlets in his pocket, he would be detained for a few days at the worst. Due to his improper thought, the old forces took advantage of his omission and had the police arrest him and persecute him at a detention center. After learning of his arrest, a lot of practitioners in the area exposed the behavior of the police. As a whole body, the practitioners took turns to go to the detention center to send forth righteous thoughts. A few days later, the practitioner's former employer told the authorities to sentence him to one year in a forced labor camp. The situation was grave so other practitioners decided to send forth righteous thoughts with high frequency in order to stop the evil from succeeding in persecuting the practitioner, to strengthen the practitioner, and to help him escape from the detention center. The practitioner refused to recite the prison rules, to report to the prison heads, or to wear the prison uniform. He sent forth righteous thoughts and looked within. Finally he realized that he had some attachments and was taken advantage of by the old forces. To break the arrangement of the old forces, practitioners must safeguard their thoughts at every moment, correct themselves, and assimilate to the Fa. After realizing that the detention center was not where he was supposed to stay, he started to clarify the truth there and urged the guards to quit the CCP. As a result, several people quit the CCP. Then he sent forth righteous thoughts to leave the detention center in order to do what he was supposed to do. Because of the high-frequency of sending forth righteous thoughts to dissolve the evil Party, dark minions, and rotten demons, and of Master's benevolence, the practitioner finally managed to leave the detention center three weeks later.
Please kindly point out anything improper.
