(Clearwisdom.net) Master Li said in "Disintegrate Completely All the Meddling Deities in the Three Realms that Have a Hand in Interfering with Fa-Rectification,"
"Thus, if the world's people are to be saved, it has become an absolute necessity for Dafa disciples to completely disintegrate the old forces and all of the meddling, vile deities in the Three Realms that are hampering sentient beings' salvation and learning of the facts."
Some practitioners think that when the meddling and vile deities are disintegrated and cleaned up, it will be easier to clarify the truth to religious people. Recently, I had an experience in clarifying the truth to Buddhists, which I would like to share. Please correct me if I have made any mistakes.
I am a teacher. There is an older teacher who is a Buddhist and also an honor student in a Buddha school in China. We are part of the same faculty. As our relationship improved, I often clarified the truth to him when I had the opportunity. He heard what I said, but I was not sure whether he was really listening. When I passed truth-clarifying information to him, he just quickly scanned it and then gave it back to me. He made neither negative nor positive comments. When I gave him the DVD of the New Tang Dynasty Chinese New Year Spectacular, he was happy, and showed very high regard for the Spectacular.
He came to find me yesterday and asked for two more DVD copies. It was 11:53, just when I was about to send forth righteous thoughts. I figured out a way to solve this difficulty, so I immediately put the DVD into the computer to duplicate it. I sat in the lotus posture and said to him, "You should come over and sit together with me in this posture, because people who cultivate in the Buddha School should do the sitting meditation." He sat down with his legs crossed, but the posture was neither in the single nor the double-leg crossed position. Seeing my sitting posture, he kept saying, "Well done. For all of these years, I have consistently done the sitting meditation for fifteen minutes every morning, but I cannot manage to do the double-leg crossing posture. I tried it once, but I could not stand it for even just five minutes."
I didn't reply to him at all but only conjoined both hands and then became tranquil. I thought about disintegrating all of the meddling and vile deities that are hampering sentient beings' salvation and learning of the facts. Again, he said, "Your sitting meditation posture is standardized and the conjoined posture of your hands belongs to..." I didn't talk to him but kept my mind tranquil. Five minutes later, I used my hand gestures to keep sending righteous thoughts. After I finished, he said a lot of admiring words and then asked me why I could do sitting meditation in this posture. I told him, "The sitting meditation is different from other physical exercises in that you must raise your personal xinxing level. I study the book Zhuan Falun every day. In 1999, I began sitting with both legs crossed while I studied Zhuan Falun." Then I told him the length of time that I can sit with both legs crossed. To him, it was a massive number. I said, "Not long ago, I met an old man who is 78 years old and he had practiced Falun Dafa before. But after the persecution by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began, he didn't dare go on practicing. I convinced him to start practicing again and he accepted my words. Now he can easily do the sitting meditation for one hour. There are many older practitioners who can easily do the sitting meditation for a long time. Cultivation in Falun Gong is superior and no other schools can compare with it."
Again, after giving a lot of positive comments about Dafa, my colleague left satisfied.
I contacted several people who had their own religious beliefs. I felt that they had more barriers, because as soon as I started to clarify the truth to them, they started to talk about their religious theories without stopping, avoiding the topic of both the truth about Dafa and the evil CCP. If I argued with them, the effect was not good. Once again, the same situation happened to me in a dream, where a university classmate of mine kept talking about the theories of his religion. I didn't argue with him but instead I sent forth righteous thoughts. Finally, he stopped talking and I could start to clarify the truth.
After I respectfully studied Master Li's new article, "Disintegrate Completely All the Meddling Deities in the Three Realms that Have a Hand in Interfering with Fa-Rectification," I understood more about the importance of sending forth righteous thoughts. After the meddling and vile deities were disintegrated and cleaned up, it became easier to clarify the truth. We can use various ways to do it. Letting people observe the way we do the sitting meditation is one of the approaches. It is quite rare to see a real cultivator within religions nowadays. It is rare to find monks that meditate with the double leg crossing posture in the temple and even rarer to see it in the scholars studying under those monks. After seeing the posture of Dafa practitioners meditating or becoming tranquil, I have found that people admire it from the bottom of their hearts and accept the truth of Dafa.
Finally, I want to refer to one sentence from Master Li to remind myself,
"Don't do anything differently when you clarify the facts to religious people, don't direct anything toward a particular group, and look only at what a person really wants and his or her own choice."
