I was with several practitioners at an experience-sharing meeting when the time came to send forth righteous thoughts. While everyone was sending forth righteous thoughts, I opened my eyes and saw some practitioners' upright palms lean over and then drop. While holding up lotus palms, some practitioners' palms were almost closed. A few days later, we had another experience-sharing. While we were sending righteous thoughts, three out of five practitioners were half asleep. My heart felt very heavy. It is somewhat forgivable if occasionally you are not able to stay fully alert while sending righteous thoughts. But if it happens often then it is a very serious matter. Therefore, I would like to say something about this situation.
Master mentioned in "Righteous Thoughts" on October 13, 2002:
"At present, there are still some students who haven't really grasped the essentials of sending righteous thoughts. Some students are in the exact same state as when they do the meditation�"even when they're just doing the meditation, some students are in a half-asleep, are in a state in which their minds aren't alert enough, or are in a state in which they're severely interfered with by stray thoughts�"so they can't achieve a very good effect." "To reduce the losses, and to save sentient beings, put your Dafa disciples' powerful righteous thoughts to full use! Show your Mighty Virtue!"
If our palms are dropping and we are half asleep while sending righteous thoughts, we lose the true meaning of sending righteous thoughts. Moreover, what was supposed to be disintegrated cannot be disintegrated and whoever could have been saved would not be saved. We would then just be wasting our time. Whenever our speech and behavior is not righteous, the evil will come up and interfere with our work by all means; it will persecute us so as to make us lazy and go astray. We have to keep strong and sufficient righteous thoughts so that we can totally disintegrate all evil and save our fellow practitioners from persecution.
The upright palm and the lotus palm hand positions used when sending righteous thoughts are the mechanisms installed by Master. Strengthened by Master, sending righteous thoughts carries such power that it can split open a mountain. We should take it very seriously. If we cultivate ourselves well and keep our thoughts righteous, we can help to reduce the inhuman tortures suffered by our fellow practitioners imprisoned in jails.
We should focus our attention and our effort when sending forth powerful righteous thoughts, eradicate all evil that damages Dafa, and disintegrate the dark minions, rotten demons, and all elements of the evil Communist specter in other dimensions. We should also focus our attention on sending forth righteous thoughts to completely disintegrate all evil in every jail and concentration camp so that our imprisoned fellow practitioners can rejoin the great wave of Fa-rectification. As long as evil is still not being eradicated completely, we should not overlook the importance of sending righteous thoughts and should send forth righteous thoughts with our minds focused and heads clear.
