Eliminating Attachments and Being Persecuted

By a Falun Gong practitioner in China

(Clearwisdom.net) While enduring the evil persecution, Dafa disciples in tribulations feel pain in their hearts. When this occurs, the practitioners may be unable to study the Fa calmly, and their righteous thoughts may become weak. As they cannot meet with Master face to face, they can only seek help from fellow practitioners. We fellow practitioners must understand that what practitioners who are being directly persecuted need most is not a single sentence such as, "You have attachments and loopholes; you need to seek within." The objectives of the so-called tests that the old forces have arranged are merely to persecute and ruin practitioners using the excuse that Dafa disciples have attachments and loopholes. However, the xinxing tests arranged by our great Master are always compassionate hints and salvations, and throughout the process, it is always done with compassion to move disciples' hearts and truly raise our xinxing. Following the righteous principle of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance," will not interfere with the elimination of attachments while being persecuted. If fellow practitioners do not have a clear understanding of this when facing practitioners who are being directly persecuted, we could be taken advantage of by the old forces, which could cause unnecessary damage or conflicts among practitioners, and could even give the evil a chance to weaken practitioners' power as one body.
