When I am at work there are so many things to do that sending forth righteous thoughts could be
easily interfered with if the evil factors are not cleared away. Specifically I have noticed how as
the set time to send forth righteous thoughts approaches, many people will come into my office and
need something from me in a hurry, or in a meeting something will be needed from me at that
particular time. I have become much more sensitive to this kind of interference lately as it repeats
again and again. I understand that this is a manifestation at my level of cultivation, but I would
like to share my experience with others who may be experiencing similar things.
It is of utmost importance to eliminate the evil factors in one's environment constantly, and
especially when the set times approach to send forth righteous thoughts. I have seen how at five
minutes to the hour my office will have 4 people in it wanting something from me, but at the hour
they will all turn and walk out almost in unison. Then, just the other day I was in a meeting and I
could see how as the time approached I was going to be asked for some crucial information at the
hour. When I eliminated the interference well before the time to purify the mind and body, the
person leading the meeting received an important phone call that he had to take, which then lasted
until about 12 minutes after the hour.
This is meant to emphasize that as cultivators, even though we are in a busy work environment with
responsibilities, by eliminating interference in our environment we can place the Fa first and still
send forth righteous thoughts, while the other responsibilities we have in our work environment will
adjust themselves around that important time and duty.
