(Clearwisdom.net) There is a certain practitioner who told me things whenever she saw me. She would tell me that she gave truth-clarification DVDs to so and so and had clarified the truth to certain people. She also mentioned that she distributed flyers and posted truth clarification phrases with a specific practitioner. She even told me where she got the truth materials from. I asked her, "Why are you telling me these things?" Her reason was very simple. She said that she told me this information because she trusts me.
One coordinator receives large amounts of truth clarification materials, divides them into smaller piles, and then asks other practitioners to pick up the smaller piles for further distribution. Some practitioners did not pay attention to their cultivation of speech. They went home and casually revealed where the materials came from to their spouses or children. They felt that since they were family, they could trust them completely. However, whenever the materials appeared on the street, people soon knew who had distributed those materials and who had posted the phrases. All this information was leaked by practitioners' relatives.
As the cultivation environment improves, some practitioners are not so careful about safety issues. They yell out a fellow practitioner's name on the street. They also hand out sensitive materials and/or books without putting them into an envelope. When fellow practitioners point out that we should be careful about safety, a certain practitioner says that the others have a "fear attachment" or "not enough righteous thoughts" and so on.
There is another practitioner who wanted to set up a family truth clarification materials production site. Even before the person had purchased a computer and learned how to use a printer, people started to show up, asking for materials. Later on, this practitioner's family member, who did not practice, was afraid of "getting into trouble." The purchased equipment was then sold or given away.
There are also practitioners who casually introduce newcomers to other practitioners or take newcomers right to the material production sites. Some even casually tell other people about practitioners who are in charge of the materials. The reason they give for telling this information to others is: "We are all Dafa practitioners."
Too many hard lessons have been learned due to not cultivating one's speech and not paying attention to safety issues. Why are there still practitioners who have not learned these lessons? In fact, it is because these cultivators still have many attachments, such as showing off, excitement, a need for admiration, curiosity, not considering other people's feelings, and so on. The bottom line is that this is determined by the cultivator's xinxing level and cultivation state. If a cultivator reaches a certain state that is beyond this level, what they have done is already forgotten. They would not want talk about it even you asked them to.
Cultivation of speech is one of the basic requirements for Dafa disciples. It is a reflection of being responsible for Dafa and Dafa practitioners. It has nothing to do with trusting or not trusting someone. Those practitioners who feel that they can say anything among fellow practitioners have an attachment to sentiment. It becomes validating "the self" instead of validating Dafa. In actuality, everything that a Dafa disciple does is all for oneself; it is your own business and your own responsibility. Why is there a need to talk about it?
