When dealing with tribulations, we should use the mindset of a cultivator, instead of human mentalities. Otherwise, we end up trying to "figure things out" like ordinary people, instead of studying the Fa well like cultivators.
Ordinary people will not do what is right even though they feel they have figured it out, however, once a cultivator understands the Fa, his steadfast righteous belief rises, and he will conscientiously require himself to assimilate to Dafa according to the standard of the Fa.
Truly studying well and understanding the Fa is not just memorizing and understanding superficially from words, but manifests in constantly assimilating to Dafa and upgrading to the realms that one enlightens to from the Fa. It is the constant giving up of attachments and being more steadfast in our righteous belief. What manifests in this dimension are practitioners' righteous thoughts and righteous actions, our doing everything according to Master's requirements and our unceasing diligence.
