(Minghui.org) Some audio files, video files, and scripts from small-scale lectures given by Master Li (Falun Dafa’s founder) have recently been circulating in Changchun, Jilin Province, and may have spread to other places.
Master said:
“I suggest that every disciple immediately, on the spot, destroy everything that I have not publicly issued but that is in circulation without permission, ...” “... the speech given by people in charge of the Dafa Research Society, and so on, plus texts, recordings, videotapes, etc., that have been transcribed from my speeches without permission. All of these must be destroyed on the spot, and they cannot be kept regardless of the excuse. What is “safeguarding Dafa”? This is most thoroughly a safeguarding of Dafa, and a test of whether you can follow what I tell you and whether you are truly my disciples! Let me tell everyone once again that the Dharma taught by Buddha Sakyamuni was sabotaged this way. This is a lesson in history.” (“Bear in Mind Forever,” Essentials for Further Advancement)
In recent years, some practitioners in Changchun had severe sickness karma; some even lost their lives, others were arrested and sentenced, while others experienced financial difficulties. Although some of these things could be interference from the old forces, they would be lessened if we practitioners walked our paths well.
Master also said:
“Cultivation is your own matter, and it is your own decision what you pursue. Everyday people all have both demon-nature and Buddha-nature. Demon-nature will take effect once a person’s mind is not righteous. Let me tell you again that an outsider can never damage the Fa. Only students can damage the Fa—remember this!” (“Stability of the Fa,” Essentials for Further Advancement)
Living in Changchun, Master Li’s hometown, we practitioners should do even better by studying and memorizing the Fa (teachings), and regard them as Master. We should destroy all the files that Master did not publish. Doing so will help us safeguard Dafa.
This is my personal opinion. Please point out anything inconsistent with the Fa.
