(Clearwisdom.net) The path of Fa validation is difficult. Especially in the vicious environment inside Mainland China, every Dafa practitioner has deeply felt that because we didn't treat many things with righteous thoughts at the time and failed to completely negate the old forces' arrangements, the evil took advantage of our omissions again and again and caused unnecessary losses. Recently, several Dafa-slandering programs were aired on TV. Dafa materials production sites were destroyed, Dafa practitioners were arrested, and the lawsuit against Jiang met with interference...I fell into deep thinking and I was lost. It must be that we still have some problems and omissions. Didn't Master tell us repeatedly that we must look inward? So what is the problem?
After studying the Fa with a calm mind, my head became clear. I always thought since I was studying the Fa, sending forth righteous thoughts, clarifying the truth and becoming more determined on the path of Fa-rectification, the environment should become better, right? Master said, "...the Book of Revelation in the Bible says that the evil beast would attack God with his mouth for forty-two months, which is three and a half years." ("Teaching the Fa at the Washington, D.C. Fa Conference") The time has passed and Jiang has been sued, why did...? However, our "pursuit" is hidden behind the apparently normal actions, as we want it to become good. We want the situation to become better, and we are afraid of it appearing again to persecute the people. We are also "waiting" for outside changes instead of taking "destroy all evil and save all predestined people" as our responsibility. We didn't truly look at the problems from the perspective of the Fa. So didn't we position ourselves wrong? Isn't that deviation? Isn't that omission? If other practitioners beside me are also thinking this way, is this a small issue?
Our thoughts are impure; we are unsteady on our path. Dafa practitioners have not yet reached the standard required by Fa-rectification as a whole body. Yet, we are the main body of Fa validation in the human world. If many of us cannot place ourselves righteously and are not truly using righteous thoughts and righteous actions, our power as a whole body would be reduced. We are also sending forth righteous thoughts, but it's like we are going along with others and "supporting" something instead of truly melting into Dafa and sending forth indestructible righteous thoughts from the depth of our hearts.
If every single one of our particles can send forth powerful righteous thoughts -- let the "beast" shut its mouth as we will not allow it to attack Dafa or interfere with us. If we don't have attachments and are indestructible, it will no longer exist. If every one of us Fa particles can send forth indestructible righteous thoughts -- we can bring Jiang to the court of justice. If we keep powerful and determined righteous thoughts and can never be moved, and if we keep righteous thoughts and righteous actions, then we will be able to direct the world's people do as we want. If we press on, the power of our whole body will form the change in heavenly phenomenon manifesting in the world.
Just as Master has told us, "'we can't be too attached to ordinary people.' ...it will have been done by our Dafa disciples. Wherever there's a problem, that is where we should go clarify the facts--judges, lawyers, and the various people involved in the suit are all people we should clarify the truth to. Once the human minds are rectified, the court will stand on the side of justice. Then won't it be our Dafa disciples doing that? Won't it result from Dafa disciples validating the Fa? Won't it be the accomplishment of Dafa disciples? You can't call it ordinary people validating the Fa, it's Dafa disciples walking their own path. That's the little bit that makes things different." ("Teaching the Fa at the 2003 Midwest--U.S. Fa Conference") In the past four years, because of our attachments: the Chinese premier became vicious; the results of the sixteenth congress were terrible; China's human rights issues were vetoed at the United Nations; the lawsuit against Jiang met with interference. Just as Master has told us, "We should become more rational by learning from these lessons. We've gone through so much, and through these lessons we should gradually get clearheaded." ("Teaching the Fa at the 2003 Midwest--U.S. Fa Conference")
With the support of Dafa practitioners' righteous thoughts from around the world, practitioner Ms. Wang Minli was released and she came back in a dignified manner; "610 Office" heads were found guilty. One after another, the evil is being eliminated and many things about Fa-rectification are being pushed forward at a fast speed. If every Dafa practitioner can understand things from the perspective of the Fa, use righteous thoughts and righteous actions to treat everything, and if all Dafa practitioners around the world can unite as a harmonious whole body and fully utilize the power of a whole body, the situation of Fa-rectification will change immediately.
However, even until now, our field of righteous thoughts as a whole body is still not pure enough. Because of fear and various attachments, we suspect each other, complain about each other and close ourselves off from others. We still have many human notions and always think other people have omissions, while we overlook the fact that our attachments are restricting ourselves and reducing our power. Isn't this the most important issue right now? Master has told us the Fa principle on tolerance, "It's tolerance, an extremely immense tolerance, being able to accept other beings, and being able to truly think from other beings' perspectives. This is something a lot of you haven't achieved yet in your cultivation, but you're gradually catching on and achieving it" ("Teaching the Fa at the 2002 Fa Conference in Philadelphia, U.S.A."). If our whole body become more and more harmonious and without attachments, how can the evil interfere with us anymore? How can it exist anymore? Isn't the evil taking advantage of our omissions and various attachments?
If we see the true nature of things through its superficial appearance and improve as a whole body, that is what Master wants to see most and would be happy about. If we position ourselves righteously, pay attention to the process using righteous thoughts and righteous actions instead of paying attention to the result, then things we want and the goals we want to achieve would come true naturally. The more we get trapped in the details of things and the more we become attached to them, the more omissions we would have. Only when we look at our hearts at all times can our hearts be clear and pure, and we would be clear on the Fa principles.
