Recently, I heard from someone who is a staff member in the Police Department that they have compiled a list of Falun Dafa practitioners, and they are getting ready to arrest practitioners and sentence them to forced labor or imprisonment.
After hearing this news, my attachment to fear arose. Although I realized that I needed to send forth righteous thoughts, my heart was not calm and many layers of bad thoughts surfaced. These things constantly affected my mind. I realized that my state was not right. I asked myself, "Is this the state a cultivator should have? Is this the right attitude when a cultivator encounters problems?"
Then I calmed my heart and started to study the Fa. My mind was empty and quiet, and my heart was also very pure. I looked to the Fa to reflect upon myself and noticed that my attachment of fear was very strong. I decided that I must eliminate the fear and stop relying on the human mindset. In the process of studying the Fa, every word and every sentence was deeply imprinted into my mind. It was amazing.
It was wrong for me to be in a state of fear. This resulted from my human heart being moved and my imagination running wild. Because of this, I was scaring myself and became anxiety-ridden. I knew that must immediately wake up and be rational. I should not allow my human heart to expand further. Otherwise, it would become very dangerous since my every thought is matter. When my thoughts were not righteous, I was strengthening the evil and it would control me even more.
I must have righteous thoughts and righteous actions and disintegrate all evil and the evil persecution. I must negate the evil and do the three things well with rationality, a clear mind, and wisdom. As a Falun Dafa practitioner in this world, I must behave with dignity, clarify the truth to the world's people, and deny the evil persecution. I must constantly elevate my xinxing and save sentient beings.
During intensive Fa study, I understood more clearly why Teacher has repeatedly and patiently told us to constantly study the Fa and to do more Fa study. Only when we do things according to the Fa, can we do things the best way and can we find safety.
When I enlightened to this level of the Fa, while walking on the street, I felt that the sun and the sky were brighter and clearer. I further understood what it means to live with dignity. When I enlightened to Teacher's broad and profound Fa principles, I felt as if I was bathing in the spring breeze.
As I wrote this, my eyes filled with tears. I am so grateful for Teacher's compassionate salvation and I thank our great Teacher. Heshi [gesture of respect]!
