(Clearwisdom.net) I saw Clearwisdom’s call for articles to commemorate May 13, 2012, the twentieth anniversary of Dafa's introduction to the public. As soon as I saw this, I felt obligated to write an article because this will be the 20th anniversary of Master’s Fa-rectification. This is a day that is so special in every way, be it an arrangement made in history, be it for its saving sentient beings, or be it for disciples’ cultivation—yet it was difficult to start.
When I read practitioners’ discussions about the May 13 call for articles on Clearwisdom.net, I thought that all the concern about the literary level, about how to write, and about what to write was actually interference from our own human side. Our esteemed Master has carried out Fa-rectification for 20 years, and the evil has persecuted us for almost 13 years. As long as we have made it to today through real cultivation, who doesn't have a deep understanding of Dafa or experiences and insights of Dafa’s wonderfulness through cultivation? And who does not have any painful experiences of tribulations? If we wanted to, we could all write our own stories that would be ample enough to fill a book.
Master’s first sentence in the new article “The Ultimate Objective of Clarifying the Truth” said, “Falun Dafa is the Buddha Fa.” Master wants us to break down atheism, get rid of the evil’s lies, and enable people to see the Chinese Communist Party’s true face so as to save people. In my understanding, it is time to openly tell people, “Falun Dafa is the Buddha Fa.” In this sense, the significance of this year’s call for May 13th articles is even greater.
Dafa disciples should validate and show people the reality that “Falun Dafa is the Buddha Fa” using our own experiences in cultivation practice. We should not be hindered by negative thoughts. We can ask other practitioners to write on our behalf if we’re illiterate or ask those with good writing ability to polish our articles. As long as we attentively share our cultivation experiences to validate Dafa, we will move people, wake them up, and eventually save them.
Is there anyone in today’s world who can do what Dafa disciples are doing: caring for others’ safety and letting go of personal interests, or even of life and death, to clarify the facts and save others while they themselves are being persecuted?
I often hear people say evil things like, “You’re suffering so much here, why doesn't your master take care of it for you?” or “If your master were like Jesus, I would practice Dafa too,” etc. Of course this is a result of brainwashing by the evil Party. We should break it down for them. In addition, I often see “Falun Constantly Turns” written on the outside wall of temples. Why is that written on the outside wall? What does it portend? Aren’t these all good subjects for truth-clarification?
In summary, we must pay close attention to the call for articles this year. It is time to completely eliminate the evil of atheism, because it not only prevents people from being saved, but it also, as I have personally perceived, exerts great influence on our cultivation practice. A lot of my failures were in large part due to the atheistic brainwashing imposed on me from an early age.
Master has given us the direction that “Falun Dafa is the Buddha Fa.” We must grasp this opportunity to save more sentient beings and fulfill our missions and responsibilities.
