(Clearwisdom.net) The series of Epoch Times editorial articles, Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, has had a tremendous impact on society. On November 27, Minghui.org [Chinese version of Clearwisdom.net] reprinted the fifth commentary, " The Collusion of Jiang Zemin with the Chinese Communist Party to Persecute Falun Gong." (The translation is not yet available on Clearwisdom Net.) What is the relationship between exposing the nature of the Communist Party and Dafa disciples' saving people?
We know that the Communist Party was created and maintained by the old forces in order to test Dafa disciples. The old forces selected Jiang Zemin and the Communist Party to use each other to persecute Dafa. As the Communist Party is evil by its very nature, it will ultimately be destroyed.
The Communist Party has been used to persecute Dafa, and has played an extremely wicked role in doing so. As Dafa disciples, we should of course understand the evil nature of the Party that persecutes us, completely eliminate its specter that lingers in our minds, and point out its evil nature when we clarify the truth to people. People can then better understand the essential connection between the Party and the series of crimes committed by various individuals in the persecution. This is part of the truth behind the persecution, and is what we need to clarify as Dafa disciples.
In addition to relying on its violent and immoral nature, the Communist Party also relies on hypocrisy and deceit to conceal the truth. It is just like a demon. People would take precautions against it if it were terrifying in appearance, but because it puts on a beautiful mask, conceals its evildoings, and creates diversions to shift people's attention, it is extremely dangerous.
In its early stage, the Communist Party promoted "a heaven on earth with great unity among people and no suppression " and this deceived many kindhearted people. Later, when its vision of a "heaven on earth" fell apart, it used dictatorial power to suppress all voices of dissent. At the same time, to gain support it fulfilled people's desire for material interest. This is in fact just a matter of "sharing a cup of soup," which the Communist Party gained through corruption and seeking private gains, with a small number of Chinese people. Finally, it has been trying its best to maintain its power by instigating the spirit of "nationalism." During its persecution of Falun Dafa, this deceit has poisoned many people's minds and destroyed some practitioners.
We should show the true nature of such an evil spirit to people. Of course, cultivators do not care about and do not get involved in power struggles of everyday society. If the Communist Party did not persecute us, we wouldn't bother with it. But since the Communist Party has treated the Fa-rectification as its enemy, we should expose it and let people clearly know about it. Otherwise, those people who agree with it in their minds are providing a space for the evil spirit to stay. They will be recognized as being a part of that spirit. Letting people clearly see the nature of the Communist Party can help more people be saved.
As Fa-rectification Dafa disciples, we need to do this with a cultivator's state of mind. We know that the persecution is not humans persecuting humans. We are not involved in a political struggle. We don't want to overthrow any political party, to take revenge or express any grievances, nor do we want to establish a new government. We want to save more people.
During this process, more people who come to know the truth will see through the true nature of the Communist Party. The spirit that survives on lies and violence will definitely become extinct. This is determined by the law of the universe.
Everything we do today is to clarify the truth, save people, and to assist Master in the Fa rectification. At the same time, we assimilate to Dafa and complete our cultivation. We expose the truth that Jiang Zemin and the Communist Party have used each other to persecute Dafa, and we expose the evil nature of the Communist Party so that people-- including Communist Party members--will not be deceived and controlled by the Communist Party anymore, and will be able to understand the truth better and establish their own futures.
