(Clearwisdom.net) Everyone was very happy to hear that Shen Yun will be performing in Hong Kong next spring. Some practitioners have wondered whether or not this will be the first step toward Shen Yun coming to mainland China. Some practitioners want to purchase tickets to see the show. I'd like to offer my own understanding, and I welcome fellow practitioners to share their views as well.
Our Hearts Must Not Be Swayed and We Must Steady Ourselves to Do the Three Things Well
At present, Dafa practitioners' main goal is to steadily do the three things well. When our hearts are moved, the old forces can easily interfere through this loophole. I recall when a fellow practitioner mentioned that Teacher would be speaking at a Fa conference in Hong Kong several years ago. When practitioners overheard that Teacher would be present, many practitioners from Guangdong Province wanted to go, and this prompted the wicked Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to dispatch many government agents to interfere with the event. Dafa practitioners should maintain a steady heart and do well the three things that they are meant to do.
After Shen Yun performances in Hong Kong, will the next step be hosting Shen Yun in mainland China? Every step of the Fa-rectification is arranged in order by Teacher. As Dafa practitioners, we cannot use a human mentality and judgment to speculate. No matter what tactics the wicked party employs to interfere and cause trouble, they will never succeed. Everything will still proceed in accordance with the requirements of Fa-rectification. However, should practitioners' hearts become swayed, their attachments as a whole will cause complications to the existing situation and interfere with the progress of Fa-rectification. "Dafa disciples are to do the three things well and steadily, and not be swayed in any human way." ("Disintegrate Completely All the Meddling Deities in the Three Realms that Have a Hand in Interfering with Fa-Rectification")
Keep up with Sending Forth Righteous Thoughts to Strengthen Hong Kong Practitioners with Their Ticket Sales
Aside from benefiting the population of Hong Kong, the Shen Yun performances in Hong Kong could also benefit many people from neighboring Guangdong Province in the tourism sector. Thus, responsibility for the success of the Hong Kong Shen Yun performance is not limited to just Hong Kong practitioners. "Dafa disciples are one body, and it is the same wherever you are--the progress of Fa-rectification is synchronized." (Fa Teaching at the 2007 New York Fa Conference) "The next person's things are your things, and your things are his things." (Teaching the Fa at the 2002 Washington, D.C. Fa Conference) Hence, everyone should keep up with sending forth righteous thoughts to strengthen Hong Kong practitioners with their ticket sales work. Those who are able can also assist Hong Kong practitioners with their work.
Mainland Chinese Practitioners Can Distribute More Shen Yun DVDs to Spread the Show's Popularity
Mainland Chinese practitioners can distribute more Shen Yun DVDs to their local communities so that the performance will be more well-known. Mainland Chinese will then be introduced to Shen Yun and know that they are welcome to see the performance in Hong Kong.
Practitioners Should Encourage Their Relatives, Friends, and Colleagues to See the Performance
Guangdong Province is relatively close to Hong Kong. Many of our fellow practitioners have many friends, relatives, and colleagues who frequently get to visit Hong Kong. Practitioners can let these people know about this wonderful event. Should Shen Yun turn out to be an unprecedented grand performance, this will allow many people to follow Shen Yun with interest, as well as promote Shen Yun's popularity. This will contribute to a strong foundation for ticket sales for the next Shen Yun event.
