Immediately Stop Disrupting the Fa and Genuinely Understand the Fa From the Fa

December 30, 2003 |  

(Clearwisdom.net) Recently the videotape of Master's "Fa-Lecture During the 2003 Lantern Festival at the U.S. West Fa Conference" has been circulating among practitioners in our region. Many people have watched that tape, and it is still being circulated among practitioners. In addition, some practitioners describe the contents of the tape to others who have not seen it. Some practitioners continue to circulate it even though they consciously know this is not good. No matter how many excuses they have, I strongly believe that it does not conform to the Fa and, seriously speaking, it damages the Fa. In this regard, Master has already taught us not to do that. Since the "Fa-Lecture During the 2003 Lantern Festival" lecture has been published for quite a while, the videotape should be destroyed right away. If Master tells us not to do something, we should just not do it. I believe that we are really understanding the Fa from the Fa if we treat Master and the Fa without everyday people's mentalities.

This reminds me of the experience I had when I was illegally detained. I was questioned about a videotape that is a completely distorted version of Master's Fa Lecture on the "great catastrophe." While I was clarifying the truth to them, I wondered if practitioners had destroyed the videotape as soon as the lecture was published, so the villains would not have the chance to cook up a story to deceive people. It happened because practitioners' attachments left loopholes for evil to exploit.

This is the Fa-rectification period. The mission of Dafa disciples is to assist Master to rectify the Fa and to save the sentient beings.

I hope we all take a righteous path, immediately stop disrupting the Fa, and do well the three tasks Master asks us to do.

I would also like to take this opportunity to tell my fellow practitioners overseas not to spread this kind of thing in Mainland China.

Please kindly correct me if there is anything inappropriate here.

To end my comments, I would like to quote Master's article entitled "Bear in Mind Forever" (Essentials For Further Advancement).


Bear in Mind Forever

Dafa Society:

I suggest that every disciple immediately, on the spot, destroy everything that I have not publicly issued but that is in circulation without permission, such as: my speeches that came out of Chengde; the things about supernormal abilities that a practitioner from Beijing discussed; the speech of the assistance center coordinator in Dalian; the cave story from the coordinator of the Guizhou assistance center and other speeches; not to mention the speeches made by people in charge of different regions; what was said by students after seeing me; the speech given by people in charge of the Dafa Research Society, and so on, plus texts, recordings, videotapes, etc., that have been transcribed from my speeches without permission. All of these must be destroyed on the spot, and they cannot be kept regardless of the excuse. What is "safeguarding Dafa"? This is most thoroughly a safeguarding of Dafa, and a test of whether you can follow what I tell you and whether you are truly my disciples! Let me tell everyone once again that the Dharma taught by Buddha Sakyamuni was sabotaged this way. This is a lesson in history. From now on, nobody should tape record or videotape speeches given by any of the people in charge in different regions or by any disciples; even less can they be edited into texts or be spread around for people to read. This is not a problem of any particular person, nor is this to criticize any person in particular here; instead, this is rectifying Dafa. Bear in mind: Except for Dafa students' experience sharing conferences for studying the Fa and activities organized by major assistance centers with the endorsement of the Research Society, anything that does not belong to Dafa but is being circulated in Dafa undermines Dafa.
