(Minghui.org) I went through sickness karma recently and felt shortness of breath and a lack of energy. I began looking within and sending righteous thoughts. I recovered in about five days but still felt tired and weak. Right after that, a fellow practitioner called me and asked me to pick up a lawyer early the next morning.
I quickly agreed to do this to prevent the practitioner from talking about more sensitive things on the phone. The call stirred up negative thinking and resentment in me. She was not being careful. She used her cellphone to call me directly, talked about sensitive topics on the phone, and told me that another practitioner in her family was being persecuted. Why didn’t she pick up the lawyer herself, especially after I had told her that I didn’t want to be involved with the rescue? I have been involved in rescuing practitioners many times, and my car has been followed. I have been persecuted, and my current state was not good.
I knew my state was not right, and I needed to adjust it. I understood this through the Fa but still felt resentment. When I meditated the following morning, I suddenly had a thought, “The reason I am going to get the lawyer is to assist Master in rectifying the Fa, I am not going there to be persecuted.”
That thought gradually became firmer, “I am here to resist the persecution, to give those who work in public, prosecutorial, and legal systems another opportunity to do the right thing, not commit any more sins, and have a better future.”
When I left home at 6 a.m. to pick up the lawyer, and later, when I drove him back to the station, I kept sending righteous thoughts and reciting Master’s Fa.
“Rectifying Fa as I go, penetrating all layers of the cosmosAll choosing to oppose the rectification were eliminatedWhen Heaven wishes for change, who’d dare obstruct? The cosmos, now rebuilt, will never again turn bad” (“Rectifying the Fa,” Hong Yin III)
On the way to the station, we saw a beautiful sunset. The magnificent evening sun was reflecting off a patch of clouds, and in the center, a large, tall, red pillar rose spectacularly from the horizon straight into the clouds. The lawyer asked me in amazement and excitement, “Is this a gong column?”
I was struck by something I had never seen before, and I thought that this was encouragement from Master. I also recognized that it was more than that. Since yesterday, I changed my thinking and no longer feel resentful. I no longer thought about being persecuted—I was standing on the ground assisting Master in rectifying the Fa.
Because I thought of myself as a particle of Dafa and was fulfilling my vow, I felt honored that Master granted me another opportunity to elevate and improve.
This is my understanding. Please kindly point out anything that is not in accordance with the Fa.
