(Clearwisdom.net) No life is allowed to interfere with Master rectifying the Fa. Doing so would impede Master's Fa-rectification process and bring damage to sentient beings in the universe. However, due to Dafa practitioners' having unclear understandings from the perspective of the Fa and not letting go of human attachments, we are leaving loopholes for the old forces to take advantage of. As a result, things that were not supposed to happen have taken place around us. Once this happens, we have to immediately stop it and prevent it from continuing.
I previously had a very shallow understanding regarding "Stop the persecution immediately." I thought the persecution would naturally stop once we cultivated our minds well. Now, I realize that this was only an individual's passive endurance, a disguised endorsement, and a pitiful understanding from a personal standpoint. Of course other practitioners may have different understandings and thoughts about stopping the persecution "ahead of time." From the perspective of Fa-rectification and being responsible to sentient beings, there are no conditions or preconditions. Anything that should not have happened ought to be stopped immediately.
There is no justification for anything the evil forces have done. They are only taking advantage of our loopholes and waiting for opportunities to interfere. What loopholes and what opportunities? They are the loopholes we leave for the old forces when cultivators don't have clarity from the perspective of the Fa and don't let go of our human attachments. Once we meet the old forces' "conditions," they will persecute us, just as a disoriented person can easily get lost and misled by others. However, as soon as we change our notions and raise our understandings of the Fa, any problem can be immediately solved.
There is an article entitled, "Let Every Thought Emit the Brilliance of a Splendid God Who is Immersed in and Shaped by Dafa" ( http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2006/12/8/80662.html ) written by a practitioner from North America. The practitioner described some scenes s/he saw when overseas practitioners went to the White House to appeal to the U.S. government regarding stopping the Chinese Communist Party from harvesting organs from Falun Gong practitioners in China. During the process of appeal, through a loudspeaker, fellow practitioners shared how to treat the tragic persecution rationally, without human notions.
The author wrote in the article, "I saw that the gods were outraged, swinging their divine swords in their hands ceaselessly. Wherever the swords touched, the evil was eliminated. I found the quicker practitioners improved their understanding, the faster the gods eliminated the evil. At the moment when we all understood that if this tragic persecution could not awaken people's conscience, then the sentient beings could not have a future, the heavenly army arrived in an instant. In the human world, the sky suddenly cleared up, the dark clouds disappeared, and the blue sky smiled down on us." However, "If Falun Dafa practitioners can't raise their understanding of the Fa-rectification, the righteous gods are restricted in their actions. They have tears in their eyes from seeing the suffering they can't prevent."
In fact, Master arranges and carries out all of these actions in the universe. This applies to other things we do to validate the Fa. If we don't have a clear understanding from the Fa's perspective, we would treat things with human attachments, one of these being the mentality of competition. Master then won't be able to help us. Those practitioners who have an attachment to fear and who do not have the courage to go out of their homes and clarify the truth to people, think that as long as they stay at home and nobody sees them, they will be safe. However, the evil forces in other dimensions are staring at them every moment. Practitioners who have righteous thoughts and righteous actions and have their minds set on doing the three things Master asked us to do are actually the safest ones. In fact, "fear" happens because one lacks a clear understanding of the Fa and is unable take control of one's self. No one can help these practitioners when they are in that state.
Master said in "Fa Teaching at the U.S. Capital, 2007,"
"Things that many prophecies talk about have come true, with the only changes being to this period of history that began with my Fa-rectification; there are things of that nature involved. These things have changed."
Master controls everything during the Fa-rectification and changes whatever needs to be changed to save more sentient beings. Master even delayed the time that our cultivation is to finish. The number of people the old forces were set to weed out will also need to be changed. How can this number be changed? We have to immediately stop the persecution that should not have happened, and begin a phase in which people can cultivate peacefully and sentient beings can be saved on a large scale. An opportunity must be provided for all sentient beings to choose their own futures without coercion by the evil. It is to give all sentient beings a fair opportunity and is the greatest mercy toward all sentient beings.
Master says in Zhuan Falun, "Cultivation depends on one's own efforts, while the transformation of gong is done by one's master." We can stop the persecution immediately when we as one body have a clear understanding on the issue of "why we have to stop the persecution immediately." So, in order to rescue more sentient beings, we must have a clear understanding from the perspective of the Fa.
The above is my personal understanding at my own level. Please point out anything inappropriate.
