What I Saw While Sending Righteous Thoughts: Stranded on the Beach

Dec. 4, 2015 |   By a practitioner from Wuhan, China

(Minghui.org) When two practitioners and I sent forth righteous thoughts on October 26, I saw an ocean through my celestial eye. On the beach, there were numerous small boats stranded on its shores. By the time I saw them, they had been stuck for quite a long time. I saw practitioners and everyday people starving. Some left the boats and looked for food on the land. Most people were in danger.

The two practitioners and I went to help push the boats back into the ocean. But there were too many boats for us to do on our own. We asked practitioners all over China to help us. Practitioners helped in different ways. Some pushed the boats, some clarified the truth to everyday people, and some explained why Falun Gong practitioners filed lawsuits against Jiang Zemin.

Some boats went into the sea and resumed their journey, but there were more boats that we had to get to. Groups of practitioners were pushing the boats. All of sudden the evil forces arrived. They tried to stop the boats from getting back to sea. We eliminated them. One person raised the evil Party's flag on his boat, so we clarified the truth to that person.

Due to practitioners' efforts, all the boats got back into the sea. Once they got into the sea, all the boats were connected together. Practitioners used divine powers to help them start the journey. People on the boats pressed their hands in front of their chests (heshi), expressing respect to practitioners, and some even knelt down to thank practitioners. People also shouted, “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”

The practitioners told the people, “We used to be selfish. But our Master told us, 'From now on, whatever you do, you should consider others first, so as to attain the righteous enlightenment of selflessness and altruism.' (“Non-Omission in Buddha-Nature” in Essentials for Further Advancement). What we have done today is nothing. We hope that you will remember the power of compassion deep inside your heart is immense.” All the people on the boats arrived at a good understanding as to why we were suing Jiang Zemin.

My understanding of what I saw is that people do not have the power to push their boats back to the sea. We must work together to help them. It is a sin to interfere with practitioners' efforts to work together, no matter who does it: the evil, everyday people, or even practitioners.

I recalled the pledge I made with Master: Help Master rectify the Fa and save people. I also recalled the pledge practitioners made with each other: Go down to the human world together, and come back home together. Whoever obtains the Fa first in the human world should help the others to obtain the Fa. We must not leave anybody out. Go down to the earth together, obtain the Fa together, cultivate and reach consummation and go back home together.

I believe that Master wants us to cultivate and improve as one body, and save people and reach consummation as one body.

The stranded boats also reminded me of the lawsuits against Jiang Zemin, the former head of the communist regime who instigated the persecution of Falun Gong. So far, only 200,000 practitioners have filed criminal complaints against Jiang, and even fewer everyday people have joined in. We must get rid of selfishness, prioritize the Fa and our cultivation, and behave as cultivators. Only by doing so will we not get stranded on the beach.

This is my understanding. If there is anything incorrect, please point it out to me with compassion.
