(Clearwisdom.net) Lives from different realms have different understandings and feelings about everyday human society. As I have continued cultivating, my mind has become more purified, my wisdom strengthened, and my understandings about time and space more broad and inclusive. My experience of cultivation is that it has become more real, while everything in everyday society seems so unreal, an illusion as some people say.
During this Dharma-ending period, social disorder is everywhere. People are deceptive and only pretend to care about others. They fight and struggle among themselves, each trying to cheat or outwit the other. Happiness is short-lived and temporary. The only way a Dafa practitioner can emerge from this disorderly situation is if he or she can truly eliminate human attachments.
There have been times in my cultivation when karma and my attachment to love have caused problems. The only way I was able to overcome this interference was by studying the Fa more and keeping in mind what Teacher said,
“The Fa can break all attachments...” ("Drive Out Interference" from Essentials for Further Advancement II)
With continuous Fa study, my attachments disappeared effortlessly.
During different stages of my cultivation, I have had different understandings of problems. While looking back at my previous understandings, I suddenly realized that the reason some practitioners experience evil enlightenment is their attachments, such as fear.
I could sometimes feel that my attachment was a kind of substance that was blocking and interfering with my righteous energy. That is why some very good Dafa practitioners are not as effective in talking to their family members about Dafa as they are when talking to non-family members. It's all because of the attachment of sentimentality. We should always bear in mind that we are Dafa disciples and not look for excuses for not being diligent. Teacher said,
“If you are able to succeed in improving yourself this way, what you do then, with a pure heart, will be the best and most sacred.” ("Further Understanding" from Essentials for Further Advancement)
We should therefore clarify the truth with a pure heart to save people and walk well on our final path.
