(Clearwisdom.net) Since we are Falun Dafa practitioners and Teacher's students in the process of assisting Teacher with the Fa-rectification, we should take time to reflect upon what we have done and find places for improvement, so that we can keep up with the Fa-rectification.
In order to validate Dafa amidst the difficult cultivation environment in China, we have established special ways to deliver truth-clarification materials, and we have realized the importance of sharing our experiences with each other. We set up different "Fa-validation" projects so that we can all work together and be more efficient. However, when one practitioner didn't do well with one thing, the evil factors think that all practitioners as a whole still have gaps. For this reason, every practitioner's every thought is crucial, as every practitioner in the Fa-rectification period is being tested as a particle within the one body. As a whole, every project and every individual action are tests in and of themselves. Practitioners' individual actions are a reflection of the whole body and determine how people view Dafa.
The whole body is unwittingly divided into small pieces if practitioners feel as if they can't resolve a conflict with a fellow practitioner or when practitioners isolate themselves from each other. Also, when we all treat projects in which we have no involvement as other people's things, the strength of the whole body is weakened. Moreover, when we fight over our different opinions, we further weaken each other's strength.
What the evil factors fear the most is when practitioners form a harmonious single body. The evil is trying everything it can to create conflicts among practitioners to drive them apart. The purpose for dividing up our tasks for saving sentient beings into separate projects is for the sake of convenience in doing the work, rather than intentionally forming divisions. We should still be as one whole body, and we should be in this state at anytime or anywhere -- that's required of us by Teacher and Dafa. We may have different understandings of the Fa due to our different cultivation levels, but these differences should not weaken us. Instead, they should strengthen us. We should go in the same direction together while supporting each other. We should be concerned about everything other practitioners are doing as if it were our own issue, have a clear understanding on every issue and look at things based on the Fa as much as we can, so that we don't form any divisions within our whole body. Only through accomplishing this can we keep up with the progress of Fa-rectification. Otherwise, if we didn't do well at this, there would be no need for the evil to try to split us apart, as we would have already done it ourselves.
During these final moments of the Fa-rectification, we must replenish and harmonize with each other in order to form a whole body that is free of omissions. The whole universe will be perfect and all encompassing, as it will be composed of particles that are in accordance with the Fa. If anything impure gets in, then the universe will no longer be pure, which is not allowed in the new universe. Therefore, we must have strict requirements for ourselves. Every project in the Fa-rectification is the most magnificent and righteous thing to do in the universe. For projects that we cannot participate in, we should still look at them with righteous thoughts, harmonize with the one body that practitioners have formed, and not do things that negate and deplete our strength.
As Teacher said in "Teaching the Fa at the Washington, D.C. Fa Conference, 2002," "The next person's things are your things, and your things are his things." This is not the mutual concern and unity that everyday people talk about. It is our attitudes of being responsible for the Fa, and the minimum requirement for a righteous being who must be responsible for the righteous elements of the universe.
At the Australia Fa Conference held on August 4, 2007, Teacher reiterated to us on how every practitioner should look inward, help each other in Fa-rectification with a kind heart, cooperate as one body, and do well what Dafa disciples are supposed to do. We should let go of our selfish thoughts while overcoming conflicts, isolation, contempt, suspicion and mistrust among fellow practitioners. We should also give Fa-validation the highest priority and form a singular body that is as solid as diamond. If we can achieve this, the evil factors will be dissolved instantly and sentient beings will be saved.
