(Clearwisdom.net) A while ago, under control of the evil persecution, out of a strong attachment of everyday people and in order to clear herself, a fellow practitioner cooperated with the evil and revealed some details about what I did for Dafa. However, with the collective wisdom and strong righteous thoughts of many practitioners, I fully denied all of this arrangement and thoroughly broke through the attempted persecution by the evil forces.
Later when I saw that practitioner, she dared not face me, but instead gave me a letter with her head lowered. In the letter, she expressed her extreme regret and sense of inadequacy. She belittled herself very terribly and indicated that she was not qualified to cultivate anymore. After reading the letter, my first thought was that I understood her. Meanwhile, strong righteous thoughts made me suddenly aware that this was absolutely not the right thinking of a cultivator, but the evil forces taking advantage of this test to damage a practitioner. At the same time, I also negated the advice that a fellow practitioner had given me several days before, "Don't talk to her anymore," which was integrated with human notions. The benevolence that finally emerged made me feel the sacred righteous thoughts from her true being towards Dafa and cultivation that were behind her regret. Aren't these the most precious thoughts of a cultivator? Moreover, even Teacher has always been trying his best not to let any practitioner fall behind, what excuses do we still have to watch our fellow practitioners being brought down?
So after affirming her precious righteous thoughts, I seriously pointed out that her words of "not qualified to cultivate" were not from her true being at all. This was an attempt by the evil and karma to use gaps in her mind to have her give up cultivation and achieve the old forces' objective of persecuting practitioners. I also helped her to analyze the fundamental reasons of her abandoning cultivation. It was because she did not want to endure and firmly practice in suffering anymore, which went along with the attachment of pursuing comfort. Also, out of self-humiliation and self-reproach, she intentionally made use of the opportunity to give up cultivation with the excuse of "failing to pass the test." This is a serious danger that is not easy for us to recognize.
Several days later when I saw this practitioner again, she had already gained righteous understandings of the principles of the Fa using her rationality and had again actively devoted herself to Fa-rectification. I felt happy for this fellow practitioner, and also had a deeper understanding of my own future Fa-rectification work.
