(Clearwisdom.net) A practitioner from a nearby city came to our area two weeks ago and shared with us what was claimed to be Master's new lecture. I was unable to participate in this sharing. However, a practitioner from another city came to my home several days later, and told me that the practitioner sharing this new lecture also went to their area and shared with them, saying that lecture was only available overseas. She explained everything she heard in detail, and I listened with great interest. When my husband, who is also a practitioner, came home, I repeated what I had heard to him.

I have previously told my husband that we shouldn't spread hearsay about the Fa among one another if it is not published by Master, but I didn't think about this at the time. I even regretted not being at the practitioners' sharing and thought that there might be other things that I had missed from the retelling of this lecture.

When I met a fellow practitioner, she mentioned Master's new lecture and told me something that I had not heard before. I said, “It doesn't seem right spreading the hearsay among one another if it is not published by Master.” She agreed. When I got home, I decided to investigate this further. I emailed the Minghui website editor and got a quick reply, saying, “There's no such thing. Please take the Fa as Teacher and resist such behavior in the future.”

I felt ashamed! I have been a practitioner for more than ten years and should have known better. I have memorized Zhuan Falun and Master clearly discussed things like spreading hearsay.

Master said,

“Whether it be at present or in the future, those who can undermine our Fa are none other than our own disciples” (“Immutable” from Essentials For Further Advancement).

I looked inward and found that I had the mentality of showing off and the attachment of zealotry. I was overjoyed when I listened to what I thought was the content of Master's unpublished lecture and repeated it to others with a great deal of interest, as though I knew more things than other practitioners. I was also eager to learn from this practitioner instead of the Fa, which I have done before.

At the end of 2008, I went to a nearby city. I heard that the practitioners there were passing around a video of Master being interviewed overseas. They even made copies of the video and were handing them out to other practitioners. I pointed out that it is considered to be undermining the Fa, and that they should take the copies back and destroy them. Some practitioners who had watched the video said they didn’t want to part with it.

However, I acted poorly with regard to this lecture, and can only say that I wasn't very diligent or clear minded because I hadn't done enough Fa-study. The practitioner who came to share this lecture cultivates very well and is highly regarded among practitioners. I was reluctant to doubt her, and was also afraid of others' reactions if I questioned her. I was protecting myself, not the Fa.

When I told another practitioner about the Minghui editor's reply, he told me that he had been thinking about the authenticity of the lecture too. He said, “They said that Master gave a lecture overseas and didn't publish it for the practitioners in Mainland China. Would Master treat practitioners in China and overseas practitioners differently? I thought it didn't quite make sense.”

I want to request that all practitioners who are passing around this alleged new lecture to stop it. Please do not spread this with other practitioners. This behavior is undermining the Fa.

Please point out anything that is improper.
