Righteous Thoughts

Dafa disciples' sending forth righteous thoughts at this special historic period--in order to reduce the evil beings' persecution of Dafa, Dafa disciples, and the people of the world--has played a very critical role.

Jiang is even planning to make a visit to the North America area in mid to late October, where there is a concentration of overseas Dafa disciples.

But some practitioners who have not studied the Fa deeply do not have sufficiently strong righteous thoughts when faced with difficulty. They have a feeling of helplessness, feeling that the evil force is too powerful and questioning how much effect their own righteous thoughts can exert. Obstructed by these human notions, they are passively awaiting the arrival of the mighty current of Fa-rectification.

So while busy with specific projects and matters at hand, they often consciously or unconsciously overlook sending forth righteous thoughts. There are still practitioners who feel that after all, they are clarifying the truth or doing things to clarify the truth, so they are unable to look at using righteous thoughts to purge the evil from an overall perspective and unable to take it as their own duty.
