(Minghui.org) Mr. Li Hongzhi, Falun Dafa’s founder, published his most recent article, “Why This World Is a Realm of Unknowing” on September 30, 2024. This marks the third time Master Li directly addressed the general public.
Practitioners across the world expressed their heartfelt gratitude to Master Li for offering them higher spiritual insights into Falun Dafa’s interpretation of cosmology and metaphysics, and how people can endeavor to lead a good life by making thoughtful and conscientious decisions based on the universal principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. Falun Dafa practitioners from around the world wished to share their thoughts.
Canada: The Article Can Lead Humans to Be More Compassionate
Sonia Rouleau from Canada said every time she reads the new article, her understanding of the human realm deepens, her faith in Falun Dafa strengthens, and her heart is more tranquil and calm.
Sonia said she felt “a great deal of calm and reassurance” after reading what Master Li wrote. From the article she understood there’s a higher arrangement behind creating the human world as a “realm of unknowing,” and how this delusion is actually good for human beings, as it’s in harmony with the universal principle of “good begets good, evil begets evil.”
“[People] can pay back their karma and maybe have the chance to awaken one day and be saved. And above all, when you see how they react in certain situations, you can see very clearly their heart and their enlightenment (awakening) quality,” she said.
She said the teachings also helped her remain compassionate and considerate of others when facing trying situations. “Understanding this multi-layered state finally allows me to have more compassion in my heart for the people I meet. I’m more successful at not having negative thoughts about people. And when such thoughts resurface, I can quickly identify them,” she said.
She believes that if everyone follows the views expressed by Dafa’s founder in his latest article, people will become better human beings. They can understand the reason for all the pains and hardships they experience in life and can have, “much more humility” towards the Creator and, “more compassion toward each other,” she said.
“Every day, I recommend this article to other people,” she added.
México: “The Creator’s call to humanity”
Florentina, from México, said that when she first read the title: “Why This World Is a Realm of Unknowing,” she felt that the article was “the Creator’s call to humanity.”She says her heart was deeply touched by “the great mercy of the Creator,” and how he created a “conducive environment”—this human world of delusion—in order to save all lives.
Florentina said this article reminds us that, “we human beings are on this earth, not to be human, but to return to our true home by gradually dissolving our karma and sins, and at the same time safeguarding our ‘original kind nature.’” She believes if people of faith read this new article, the “heavenly secrets” revealed in it will uplift their souls and impact them positively. She also believes that the article can help non-believers, as it can inspire them to become good and uphold morality, even when they go through hard times.
“[By] elevating their own morality and letting their original good nature emerge, only then, can they be recognized by the Creator and the gods, and have a future as they will surely be selected to be saved when salvation begins at the end of time,” she said.
Florentina said she recommends this article to others because it will allow them to connect with their good nature, and in this world of delusion, the article offers hope to everyone who wants to be saved and return to their true home in heaven.
“This world is made with the greatest mercy of the Creator because he really loves his people,” she said.
India: An Inspiration to Uphold Morality and Humility
Dr. Amardev Singh, a senior scientist with the Central Silk Board of India, says when he finished reading the article, the first thought he had was, "The universe is so vast. It’s beyond our imagination, and for people who always claim, ‘we are so knowledgeable,’ they are actually in delusion, pursuing things which are unreal,” he said.
Amardev started practicing Falun Dafa in 2020 after learning more about the practice via online Falun Dafa classes. He said he’s personally benefited from the spiritual practice, both physically and mentally. This latest article inspired him to do better and gave him a sense of urgency to focus on self-improvement and diligently cultivate his inner nature based on Falun Dafa’s core principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance.
“As a practitioner, I feel that we should always keep our main consciousness alert to avoid any kind of wrongdoings that generate karma, which then has to be eliminated,” he said.
He said that the higher moral teachings expressed in this article can help stabilize the moral decline in our society by making people cautious of their wrongdoings and inspiring them to be good people.
“This article is of paramount importance to be recommended for reading because the morality of today’s society is deteriorating very fast. People are doing wrong deeds without knowing the consequences. Once they read this article, it can change their mindset to be a good person—how they can become good, and how doing so will be helpful to them in the near future,” he said.
Another Indian practitioner, Priyanka, is a young math teacher. She said she found the teachings scientific yet mystic and also non-secular, and the description of the universe expressed in the article is simply mind-boggling.
“Master expounded how humans live in delusion and how humans can get free from it. It’s mind-boggling to know about the universe,” she said. “Humans cannot see its true state.”
Priyanka says the article explained so clearly that, “the Creator's unconditional love” provided humans another chance for redemption and return to goodness because we can see the terrifying extent to which our world has slid down. The article offers humans a way back to tradition and virtue.
“This will work only if humans can stick to their true nature, have faith, and be good, no matter how difficult the conditions are. I would highly encourage people to read this article. It can develop faith and goodness in their hearts. It can rejuvenate the realm of human thoughts and its existence,” she said.
Romania: A Reminder of the Creator’s Immense Mercy
Elena, from Romania, said that after reading the article she had a strong feeling that the founder of Falun Dafa is helping practitioners and all mankind, again.
She said the article reminded her that it’s urgent not to forget the true purpose of a human life and that we are only temporarily here in this world, and therefore, we should not delay in paying off the karma we owe from past misdeeds. She hopes that if the people of the world can realize that they are born here by the mercy of the Creator, they probably will also understand that all the hardships and suffering they face during their lifetimes are meant to help them pay off their karmic debts.
“Time passes quickly, and people should wake up as soon as possible—and return to goodness. This way there is a chance for us to be saved,” she said.
Elena added that she’s read the new article several times, and with each reading, her faith in the creator’s compassion and his profound creation has grown manifold.
“I would recommend this article to people in the hope that they will wake up. I’m not sure if that will necessarily happen, but it would be like a seed sown. We should be aware of, and grateful for the immense mercy of the creator for his creation,” she said. “I realize that the entire journey we traveled over the millions of years has been for this unique moment in existence.”
