(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa is spreading around the world. Dafa practitioners are helping our Teacher to spread the Fa as they witness what's happening. Studying the Fa, spreading the Fa, and validating the Fa--all of these are our duties. Practitioners are becoming mature through all the tests and breaking free from the old forces, as well as elevating their xinxing.
Many practitioners can easily deal with conflicts with ordinary people and let go of past animosities, but with other practitioners they get really angry and even use extreme language. They keep saying how they follow the Fa, how devoted they are, or how wrong the others are.
It might be difficult to see everything clearly when we ourselves are going through xinxing tribulations. When, as a third person, we see conflicts between others, we should also think about why we are the ones to see this and look for our own loopholes.
The reason we remain in the Three Realms during the cycle of reincarnation through thousands of years is that the power of time and space in this dimension still acts on us. We still have levels of xinxing that correspond to it. Teacher gave us Dafa so we could break through this dimension's control on us and get rid of all attachments. Then we can cultivate into a selfless and altruistic, righteous being.
Teacher has given us Dafa, created this stage of time and space, and given us the best opportunity to uplift and purify ourselves. Any conflicts among practitioners are good opportunities for us to spread the Fa, to validate the Fa, and to cultivate ourselves. Measuring every thought and deed by the standard of the Fa is the process through which we can get rid of all our attachments.
Sometimes practitioners are puzzled. Some of the arguments among practitioners look very simple to resolve. So how come the practitioners involved couldn't get through it? Some people tried to give advice, but it just made things worse. The more people that got involved, the more complicated the relationships became. Some even said, "These cultivators are worse than ordinary people." Those comments, of course, made the situation even worse.
Here I'll try to summarize the various things which led to the conflicts.
1. Attachment to self, the side which hadn't cultivated well, got stirred up by human feelings.
2. Following the old force's arrangement. When a practitioner does not act well, the old forces make more difficulties and try to pull the practitioner down.
3. Former conflicts throughout different lifetimes. If the predestined relationship between the practitioners is strong, then they must have had countless predestined relationships during their different lifetimes. Dafa can help us to break the delusion and solve all problems. If you owe another practitioner from previous lives, in this lifetime you may get hurt by that practitioner or, vice versa, hurt them. In either case, if we have good self-control, are true, good, tolerant, and always think of others first, then all problems will be resolved.
4. Xinxing tests arranged by Teacher. Maybe these different opinions are the method Teacher arranged for us to improve. Teacher has been watching us. Every opportunity is precious. Teacher hopes we can face the "unpleasant" moments.
Come to think of it, who would be happiest to see practitioners have conflicts? It's the old forces who don't want to see us succeed. They are so happy to see our attachments stirred up. When we blame each other, obviously our xinxing will drop as well as our Gong. This may affect the practitioners in certain regions and thus affect the power of the practitioners there. The evil CCP would be happy, too. Conflicts among practitioners are really something which makes the evil happy and friends sad.
We would see surprising results if we united and did things together. Teacher knows whether you are being wronged. Our conflicts are so small from the viewpoint of the Fa. Even if they seem to be big, is there anything the Fa cannot resolve? Ordinary people's methods, such as arguing and fighting, cannot solve cultivators' problems.
