(Clearwisdom.net) Wonderful things that have happened to me have made me realize the importance of taking the Fa as my Teacher and cultivating myself truly and solidly.
We know that one word from a practitioner with strong righteous thoughts can disintegrate evil beings. Although we frequently refer to this principle during our experience sharing, I was still deeply shaken by the divine majesty and sacredness of the Buddha Fa that was manifested before me.
One practitioner in our area had often coordinated group communications because it was more convenient. I suggested to him several times that, for safety concerns, it would be better to have these communications on a one-to-one basis, even though it might take more time and required more work. However, he did not take my advice and insisted on doing it his own way. I thus stopped trying to persuade him to avoid annoyance and conflicts, because nothing can be done to change a stubborn mind.
After I decided to keep silent, sometimes I did not feel alert, as if something was blocking my mind. I then seriously looked inwards and realized that my decision to let things be was actually my helpless compromise. After realizing this, I had to face a difficult decision. Continuing to try to persuade him might cause conflicts between us, since he did not listen. But if I did not do it, I would not fulfill my responsibility as a practitioner, because a practitioner should bring up the concern for safety during group communications. I wondered what I should do.
I did not want to give up. After my failed attempt to find a good solution, I finally decided to actively send forth righteous thoughts for him in order to remove the damaging and disturbing evil beings that controlled him. As a result, Teacher showed me a scene while I was in a calm state of mind. I saw practitioners gathering together outside, and two of them became the target of two separate groups of policemen, who secretly followed them in cars. These practitioners were not aware of being watched and still discussed issues openly and with animation. Meanwhile in other dimensions, two dark lines followed the practitioners' route and gradually changed into two enormous pieces of black mist that covered the sky over the practitioners. The dark evil forces were formed and ready to fiercely attack them.
Unaware of the danger, they were still chatting away. At this critical moment, a sacred bright power, knowing the intent of the evil forces, appeared in the same communication field and actively influenced the practitioners. However, no matter how hard this powerful force tried to intervene, it could not, because the communication of these practitioners was not based on the Fa. They spoke about the Fa principles and discussed righteous thoughts and actions, but their mouths did not reflect what was in their hearts. This meant that their state of mind could not reach the requirements for sharing experiences. In other words, their righteous thoughts did not sufficiently meet these requirements. It could not break through the microscopic dimension to the surface dimension.
Perhaps due to the effects of that divine light force or his foundation built from long-term, solid cultivation, one of the practitioners gradually reached the required state of mind. He calmly made a remark with strong righteous thoughts. Suddenly, the sacred light formed a big red light cluster and exploded out into the sky through this practitioner's mouth. Most of the dark evil forces were disintegrated after colliding with the light cluster, and only a small portion of them survived and rushed back. At that moment, the other practitioner, affected by the righteous words of the first practitioner, reached the same state and made another remark with strong righteous thoughts. All of a sudden, a big bright light burst across the sky, quickly caught up with the remaining dark forces, and completely disintegrated them.
After the evil beings were completely dissolved, the sky became bright again, and the two groups of policemen in this human dimension became confused. They drove around and got lost. When they woke up from delusion, the experience sharing had already ended and the practitioners had already left. Of course, throughout the whole time, those practitioners did not know that such an intense and shocking encounter was taking place and that they had faced such a dangerous moment.
I have learned the following things from this incident:
1) Any disagreement among fellow practitioners is related to their own cultivation. Even though you see a shortcoming in other practitioners, you can't force others to agree with you if they do not understand the principle. The key is how to work together to make things more harmonious.
2) Teacher showed me this scene because I looked inwards to correct my actions and didn't let difficulties deter me. I learned the principle of working together harmoniously and responded with righteous thoughts.
3) Practitioners in China should pay attention to safety and be careful not to be driven by external circumstances.
4) If a practitioner has very strong righteous thoughts, Teacher and Dafa can help him smooth out and improve his weaknesses. Righteous thoughts are all powerful. It is up to us to carry out the principle.
