To Practitioners Who Clarify the Truth Via TV (Part 3) By a Practitioner in China (Clearwisdom.net)
Completely Eradicating the Old Force''s Arrangement With Practitioners''
Cultivated Side
After some local practitoners broadcast videos clarifying the truth about
Falun Gong by intercepting cable TV, the evil was extremely afraid. Personnel
from the National Security Bureau came to local areas. They and local officials
arrested several dozen practitioners. We were quite passive at the time. More
practitioners kept being arrested before we could finish taking care of the work
they left undone. Sometimes we planned measures to eradicate the evil
persecution, but the evil acted before we did. Actually, before some
practitioners were arrested, I seemed to know that it would happen and tried
hard to help them, yet failed to keep them out of danger. I felt that the old
forces were leading us. We were often confused and wondered how to break the old
force'' arrangements and emerge from the vicious net of persecution.
We were facing great losses that had never happened before. All contacts were
cut off, and only a few of us were left. However, instead of being depressed we
felt we had more responsibility. We only had one thought from our hearts:
"We must do what we should do in order to carry forward with this great
mission." In the meantime, we must calm down, study the Fa, and take the Fa
as our Teacher. We needed to carefully look within to identify our own
shortcomings to better understand why intercepting the TV drew the police to our
Dafa material production site.
While constantly eliminating the evil in other dimensions, we also were
constantly looking inward for our own problems, from the aspects of the
establishment of the site, to the practitioners involved, and to our sense of
security. We found attachments within ourselves, including those to
"pursuit" and fame. We had let go of our self-cultivation, lacked
righteous thoughts, and did not study the Fa enough. Finally we realized that
the main reason was that we were not studying the Fa enough, not paying
sufficient attention to the issue of Fa study, and therefore not being able to
meet the requirements of the Fa at different levels.
Teacher said:
"There''s another reason why people''s gong doesn''t increase.
It''s that you can''t cultivate up if you don''t know the Law at high levels.
What do I mean? It''s just like what I said earlier about some people who''ve
practiced a lot of different qigong forms--I''m telling you, no matter how
much you learn it won''t do anything for you, and you''re still just an
elementary school student, just an elementary school student in cultivation,
because those are all low-level truths. If you follow those low-level truths
and try to cultivate up to high levels, you won''t get any guidance."
(Zhuan Falun)
If we do not hold the Fa at higher levels in our hearts, what can we use as
instruction for our work in the Fa-rectification? The old forces would surely
take advantage of the omission. This factor had existed ever since the
establishment of the material site. We failed to correct it all along and also
have been doing things with the old mentality. When things accumulated to a
certain extent, major problems appeared. In order to fundamentally and
thoroughly break the old force'' arrangements, we must improve ourselves from
the Fa.
Gradually, we realized the importance of studying the Fa, the deep meaning of
Fa-rectification ''cultivation, validating Dafa, and saving sentient beings.
Studying the Fa well is essential to accomplishing these tasks. We understand
that we should not just look at and be limited by the surface of a matter, or
things manifested in the human realm since these are possibly illusions. If we
only put effort on the worldly things, then we are just doing things for the
sake of doing things. We "... will forever crawl within the boundary
delimited by their own ignorance." (Lun Yu, Zhuan Falun) We should
go about things from the microscopic level, and things will then manifest from
the microscopic level.
First, we need to change ourselves from the microscopic level. Only when we
constantly assimilate ourselves to Dafa, cause fundamental changes in our
intrinsic huge universe system, constantly break through to the surface from the
microscopic level to renew all factors of the old universe, and meet the
requirement of the Fa at different levels, can we break through the old force''s
arrangements at different levels and save our own system at different levels and
the associated vast living beings. Therefore, our own advances in cultivation
are a priority because if we are not able to assimilate to the Fa at a certain
level, we will not be able to break through the maze and see the truth at that
level. When we study the Fa well at different levels, we can break through the
maze arranged by the old forces, save sentient beings, manifest the wisdom and
power bestowed on us by the Fa, and validate Dafa. In the human world, miracles
will be the natural result.
Second, facing the evil, the paralyzed material site and severed contacts
with other practitioners, we started again from scratch. From the microscopic
level, in other dimensions, we went through the process of growing out of
nothing. Everyone knows that any life or matter forms from the microscopic level
to its surface. Microscopic particles form bigger molecules that form even
bigger molecules until they form the matter in our dimension. As we study the Fa
well and constantly correct and purify ourselves, we pay attention to sending
forth righteous thoughts, --communicating to local practitioners'' divine sides
in other dimensions with our supernatural powers bestowed by Dafa and
eliminating the evil.
Using our cultivated sides, we promoted the reestablishment of the material
production site and reconnected with the practitioners with whom we had lost
contact. As we did what we felt we should do, everything happened according to
Teacher''s arrangement. Some examples of how this manifasted in the human world
are:
1) I suddenly recalled a practitioner''s phone number and immediately got
connected; 2) I encountered a practitioner who I had wanted to reestablish
contact with on the street;
3) I suddenly received a page from others who I had lost contact with....
We thereafter very quickly reestablished a materials site.
We then enlightened that many small material-production sites could be
established like this everywhere.
Last, in order to completely break the old force''s arrangements and deny its
persecution, we can''t just find excuses from the surface and simply correct our
behaviors. We understand that this persecution is not some trouble brought about
by humans. It is from mutated lives and even more microscopic evil factors from
different levels in other dimensions. We must meet the standard of the Fa at
different levels. In our Fa-study and cultivation, we must constantly break the
old mentalities and advance in our levels.
In "Teaching the Fa at the 2002 Fa Conference in Boston," Teacher
said:
"There are a lot of things you still aren't able to do well as Dafa
disciples though, and I can tell you that this is in fact because you've
neglected Fa-study. The reason is, your surface, which is still assimilating
to the Fa, needs to be constantly improved, and as you constantly improve, the
things that you need to cultivate away have to be arranged for. Every realm
has its own state of being. If you remain stagnant, you definitely won't be
able to keep up with the Fa-rectification."
Do we constantly strive to eliminate the attachments that Teacher has
arranged for us to eliminate? Have we eliminated our attachments and the
degenerate elements within ourselves? The Fa that we have enlightened to at each
level provides guidance at that level. When you meet the requirement of the Fa
at each level, you then break through and completely deny the old force''s
arrangements at each level. When you enlighten to the Fa at different levels,
you then save the sentient beings at that level.
Having come to understand all of this, we paid more attention to studying the
Fa, to cultivating ourselves and to sending forth righteous thoughts. We sent
forth righteous thoughts hourly more than a dozen times together, and extended
the time for sending forth righteous thoughts once in the morning and once at
night to eliminate the evil and old forces in other dimensions. Large amounts of
evil lives were destroyed. This manifested in the human world as:
1) the arrests and persecution of practitioners were stopped or changed;
2) several large-scale searches to round up and arrest practitioners were
broken up;
3) the police no longer patrol the streets.
In the meantime, our cultivation environment has changed. Practitioners
regained contact with each other and were able to obtain Dafa materials and VCDs
from the Internet on time. We also successfully destroyed the plan of the
"610 Office" "[a bureau specifically created to persecute
Falun Gong. It has absolute power over each level of administration in the
Party, as well as over the political and judiciary branches] to show
slanderous movies, holding a slanderous picture exhibit, and setting up a
brainwashing center. """"
Of course, in the human world, we also enhanced our security, including the
way we use our cellphones and pagers. When our behaviors conform to the Fa in
the human realm, the evil has no loophole to take advantage of.
