(Clearwisdom.net) One mental obstacle that hinders practitioners from being diligent both in personal cultivation and in the Fa-rectification is the desire to "square accounts after the autumn harvest," which means waiting until after a political movement is over to settle accounts. At first I did not clearly recognize it. I recently discovered, however, that this warped mentality, which formed as the result of a long period of political struggles, often becomes an excuse for me to slack off and not be diligent. I think, "No matter what the evil has done, it will come to an end sooner or later. It will be 'pay back time' for what it has done. I am not afraid of your viciousness anyway, let's just wait and see!"
Although sometimes my words and thoughts are not so obvious, I often use this as an excuse to stall, not to seek alternatives, and to view things negatively. At the same time, I notice that other practitioners also have this mentality to differing degrees. I hope they will consider this seriously. I suggest that we all pay attention to this obstacle so that we can remind those practitioners who have this attachment.
