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. A large number of evil beings have been cleaned out in a timely manner before the force of Fa-rectification arrives, and this has reduced many potential losses. Yet the evil beings have already seen that they're doomed, and they are acting more and more madly. Dafa disciples are now sentient beings' only, sole hope for salvation. So, in order to do Fa-rectification more effectively, while you clarify the facts you have to take sending righteous thoughts very seriously, and in a timely manner purge the evil and your own problems so that you won't be taken advantage of by the evil. At present, there are still some students who haven't really grasped the essentials of sending righteous thoughts. Some students are in the exact same state as when they do the meditation--even when they're just doing the meditation, some students are in a half-asleep state, are in a state in which their minds aren't alert enough, or are in a state in which they're severely interfered with by stray thoughts--so they can't achieve a very good effect. There are also some students who, when they send righteous thoughts, specifically target in their minds one or a few evil elements, and that prevents the gong and the divine powers they send out from having the maximum effect. Of course, if the circumstances are special and you target one evil being or a few evil beings as you send forth righteous thoughts, either by yourself or together, then that's something you should do, and the concentrated power is tremendous. But when you normally send righteous thoughts together on a daily basis you should chase down the evil on a larger scale. You shouldn't target one or a few evil beings each day, each time.
This is how to do it: (1) You should focus your attention and your effort, your
mind has to be absolutely clear and rational, the force of your thoughts needs to be focused and
strong, with an air of supremacy and of destroying all evil in the cosmos. (2) The disciples who for
the time being aren't able to see other dimensions can focus powerful thoughts in saying the word Mie1 (
)
after they finish saying the formula(s). The Mie ()
word needs to be so strong that it's as large as the cosmic body, encompassing everything and
leaving out nothing in any dimension. (3) Those disciples who can see the evil beings in other
dimensions can handle things according to the situations they are aware of. Their righteous thoughts
need to be strong, and they should fully use their wisdom. One righteous thought itself subdues a
hundred evil things. (4) Closing your eyes and not closing your eyes both have the same effect when
you send righteous thoughts. If you keep your eyes open you need to reach a state where you don't
take note of anything you see in the dimension of everyday people.
When you send righteous thoughts, no matter how intense things get, the surface should be serene. This especially applies when you're at your workplace or in some other particular setting; you don't need to hold your palm erect and the results will be the same. As long as you keep your righteous thoughts strong and focus your mind you can achieve the same results. But under normal circumstances you should hold your palm erect or do the lotus hand position.
To reduce the losses, and to save sentient beings, put your Dafa disciples' powerful righteous thoughts to full use! Show your Mighty Virtue!
