(Clearwisdom.net) Our cultivated side and our ultimate goal are essentially the same. It is the karma that separates them, which forms the concepts of cultivation path, time and future, and causes us to eagerly await the finish of the arduous cultivation. When we no longer acknowledge those concepts in our minds, we suddenly stop in our steps within the time and space of the Three Realms; we seem to realize something and enlighten a little. It turns out that as long as we let go of the attachments, there's no need for any arrangements. The past, present, and future are in fact one point, and the path of self-cultivation is squeezed out when the three points get connected as one. Time and space within the Three Realms can no longer restrain us. The time of expectation, hoping for, and arduous cultivation is completely cleared away. The time when "All of the heavens and earth celebrate together" ("Foretelling the Fa's Rectification of the Human World") has manifested in the heart; the heart is full of peace, happiness, and wonderfulness. We have already stood within the Fa, and there is solely "Truthfulness, Benevolence, Forbearance" in our hearts. We can already stand totally on the righteous side to "rectify everything that is not righteous," ("Dafa is Indestructible") to clear-mindedly clarify the truth to the worldly people, to let Dafa spread gloriously in the world, and create brilliance and splendor in history. Pursuit has become part of the past, and non-attachment has become the manifestation of the Fa, in "Assisting Teacher in his journey in this world." ("Assisting the Fa," Hong Yin, -- Teacher's collection of poems, un-official translation)
On the other hand, Teacher said, "Let me tell you, all those who remain and that can persecute Dafa and Dafa disciples are due to our students themselves. Students who haven't taken sending forth righteous thoughts seriously: the evil in the dimensions that you are supposed to shoulder and be responsible for has not been eliminated. That's the cause. ... As you know, the persecution that Dafa disciples in Mainland China suffer is quite severe, ..." ("Fa-Lecture at the Florida Conference in the U.S.") Possibly we have done very well in many aspects, but any discrepancies and lack of enlightenment on the principles of the Fa will still bring results contrary to our wishes, or even be taken advantage of by the evil. Similarly, if now we attach to the arrival of the spring and wish for the end of the tribulations as soon as possible, is it possible that this instead delays the upcoming spring of the Fa's rectification of the human world? This is a very serious issue.
