Suggest More Practitioners Write About How They Found their Loopholes, Got Rid of Attachments and Eliminated Evil

June 2, 2006

(Clearwisdom.net) I often read "Minghui Weekly." It has many reports of Dafa practitioners who were persecuted to death. After reading such articles, some practitioners develop the attachment to fear regarding how to rectify the Fa and save sentient beings. I was not so scared but just like other practitioners, I am momentarily perplexed and have misunderstandings. Those practitioners who were persecuted to death, they must have been very firm in their belief. Why is it that such practitioners still could not stop the persecution and had to die? They firmly believed in Master and Dafa. In front of such huge tribulations, and facing the evil, did they do well what Master asked?

I was discussing the concentration camp situation with a fellow practitioner who has a strong attachment to fear, who could not walk out to clarify the truth after being guided many times. He even complained about Master. I seemed to suddenly understand the reason why Dafa practitioners were persecuted even though they were studying the Fa and doing the exercises.

We certainly do not acknowledge the persecution forced on us by the old forces, but we truly have loopholes, and they are not small ones. For example, some practitioners cannot do the three things well but only ask for a healthy body. What character is this? I suggested to the fellow practitioner who did not do well what Master had asked, but he only complained of Master. I told him to please read Master's teachings in, "My Version of a 'Stick Wake-up'".

There are many articles on the Minghui website regarding Dafa practitioners facing persecution, practitioners who broke out of prison with righteous thoughts, or articles by practitioners who exchange experiences and elevate on the basis of Fa. However I perceive a lack of articles from practitioners who have been persecuted, but after looking inward are able to find the loopholes and verify what Master has said, "Calmly reflect on how many attachments you have; As you get rid of human mentality, evil naturally disappears" (Don't be sad, Hong Yin II, Provisional translation). Some practitioners who could not see such articles about lessons learned were taken advantage of by the evil, and some who have the same loopholes were unable to learn from these experiences.

We do not acknowledge the persecution arranged by the evil. We are Dafa practitioners. We can't forget to "cultivate". We should bravely face our attachments, our loopholes, and write and exchange our experiences.

We should show how we elevated ourselves through cultivation, and help fellow practitioners make fewer of the same mistakes, eliminate the evil, get rid of the attachments, be responsible to the Fa and the entire practitioner group.

Let us remember: "If there is truth to it you correct yourself, and if not, you are mindful of it." (Teaching the Fa in the City of Los Angeles).

At this final moment of Fa-rectification, let us do our best to decrease our losses as a group.
