(Minghui.org) My computer suddenly malfunctioned when I was writing experience-sharing articles some time ago. It stopped working for about a week. Since I understood that nothing is accidental in cultivation, I started to look inward.

I suddenly realized that my writing was validating myself instead of validating the Fa. Once I found my problem my computer started to work again. I carefully re-read my article and modified the portion that validated myself. I then felt that my xinxing level had improved.

During this process, I realized that there is a huge difference between validating oneself and validating the Fa. If the experience-sharing article is validating the practitioner himself, its readers may think that the practitioner is great after reading the article. However, if the article is validating the Fa, readers would think Dafa is great and omnipotent. And practitioners would strengthen their confidence in the Fa after reading it.

For readers in general, validating oneself in an article gives the reader a sense only of heroism. In contrast, validating the Fa helps people understand what it is to elevate in the Fa and helps people to develop righteous belief in Master and the Fa.

Practitioners cannot build up mighty virtue by validating themselves. Instead, it is only by letting go of oneself that one can build mighty virtue. The Fa will manifest in us only when we let go of self. Our mighty virtue is actually the mighty virtue of the Fa that has manifested in ourselves.
