(Clearwisdom.net) Prior to the 2008 Beijing Olympics, some practitioners told non-practitioners that the Olympics might not be successful. Many Dafa practitioners talked about it and thought that the Olympics would certainly fail. I personally felt at the time that this thinking was not very good, was irresponsible, and might affect other major things that were meant to greatly affect human society. From another perspective, what would the people who heard from practitioners that the Olympics might not be held think when they saw how successful the Olympics were?
Next year is 2012. After watching certain disaster movies, some practitioners might then hope for something big to happen. If more practitioners start thinking this way, won't it create other obstacles for the Fa rectification?
There are many mainland practitioners who were in bad situations for a long time and have gone through many tribulations. As a result, these kinds of thoughts come up. I am also in this type of situation and feel the same way, however, I think that we have be on the Fa no matter what environment we're in, especially since Teacher has given us hints concerning this many times.
These are just some of my thoughts. Please kindly point out anything inappropriate.
