(Clearwisdom.net) Ever since I began reading articles on the Clearwisdom website, I have visited the website almost every day for the past few years. The Clearwisdom website contains all kinds of topics, such as the latest news reports on Fa rectification information around the world, columns that expose the evil persecution, as well as some experience sharing articles about fellow practitioners validating the Fa. In addition, it also has various special columns. I read all of these materials very carefully and have benefited a great deal from them.
Reading articles on the Clearwisdom website allows me to find where I am lacking, encourages me to become more awakened, and enables me to become more diligent in cultivation. For a while, I felt that I should not only gather information from the Clearwisdom website, but I should also contribute to it. The Clearwisdom website belongs to every one of us. It has Master's careful tending and is a public place for all Dafa practitioners to exchange their understandings. Moreover, it is our duty and responsibility to whole-heartedly embody the Clearwisdom website. Thus, I also began submitting articles to the Clearwisdom website.
During the past few years, I have truly believed that writing articles was a process that constantly purified practitioners and cultivated and upgraded our xinxing. By doing this we can remove many unnoticed attachments. Some articles, from the first draft to the final version, have gone through a lot of polishing, correction and editing. More and more people now read articles on the Clearwisdom website around the world, especially in China. Dafa practitioners as well as everyday people are reading articles on the website, so it has a pretty big audience. As soon as an article is published, it reaches various readers around the world.
Submitting articles to the Clearwisdom website has helped me gradually eliminate various attachments, and thus strengthened my awareness of responsibility and duty. For the past few years, some of my submissions were published and some were not. Several of my submissions were collected into "Minghui Weekly." I felt that writing articles was something a Dafa practitioner should do. During the writing process I also deeply realized the meaning of, "Cultivation depends on oneself, and transformation of gong depends on one's Master." (Zhuan Falun) Many times, while I was writing an article, I came to some new and deeper understandings. Sometimes I felt that there were divine beings helping me, as I could write very smoothly and finish the article in a very short time without stopping, and after I finished, a new title was formed in my mind at the same time. I knew that this was from the wisdom given to me by the Fa. It was also encouragement from Master for my diligence in cultivation.
I remember that for some time after I submitted an article to the Clearwisdom website, I eagerly waited for its publication. If it was not published in a few days, I became very nervous. But I realized that I should look inside. I stopped complaining and began to calm down and look inward. Once I was in a calm state, I gradually found my attachment. This process is like looking at a tub of water which has some impurities floating in the water, you will not be able to see them if the water is constantly moving. However, if you wait until the water becomes still, you will see the stuff being separated and sinking down to the bottom. In this way, I quickly found my attachment and shortcomings, or in other words, I realized I still had an attachment of looking outward, pursuing fame, wishing my articles would be published, hoping fellow practitioners would agree with my viewpoint, showing off, etc.
Once I truly let go of that attachment, I realized that some of the articles would be published after some time. From this I understood that under any conditions, what we are doing contains factors for our improvement. If we do not pay attention, we will miss that and lose the opportunity to look inward. That is to say, on our cultivation journey, we should always view ourselves as cultivators and righteously face everything. Only then we will be able to upgrade our level. Master also constantly warns us, "...for your improvement is what's most important." ("Further Understanding" from Essentials for Further Advancement)
We have walked our Fa-rectification cultivation path for ten years. From the practice of Fa validation in different places, the Clearwisdom website has made tremendous and long-lasting efforts in saving sentient beings. Fundamentally speaking, it is the power of Master and Dafa. In the mean time it is also a result of cooperation among staff members of the Clearwisdom team and Dafa practitioners in China as a whole-body. I hope more and more fellow practitioners can join this field created by our Master. Let us participate in and embody the Clearwisdom website, and our Dafa website will become better and better. It is our combined responsibility and also our united wish.
