(Clearwisdom.net) Some practitioners are interfered with by sickness. If one repeatedly fails a test, after many attempts it could lead to a certain situation: the more one stays in that state, the weaker one's righteous thoughts will become. Even though a practitioner can have omissions, or one's sickness karma can be very big, we should completely deny the arrangements of the old forces and forbid them to interfere with practitioners during the Fa-rectification period. Once we are in the above situation, we should send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil and the interference in other dimensions. If the practitioner can't send forth strong righteous thoughts due to the severity of the sickness karma interference, others should surround the practitioner and send forth righteous thoughts.
The following are several examples:
Two practitioners were once forced to become homeless for a period of time after being released from labor camps. During that period, they didn't study the Fa well and didn't send forth righteous thoughts well. Finally, after they went overseas, they developed an attachment to comfort. However, the evil did not let them go. While they were detained in the labor camp, they had been persecuted and tortured. After they went overseas, the two practitioners developed scabies. Their skin got infected, discharged pus and stank. An overseas practitioner took them to his house and asked some retired elderly practitioners to send forth righteous thoughts and study the "Fa" every hour around them. In the beginning, these practitioners felt severe pains in their legs when they were sending forth righteous thoughts. Some sensitive practitioners also didn't feel well. But the evil was being eliminated gradually every day. The two practitioners from Mainland China were getting better every day. They completely recovered in a short period of time. Without the effort and unity of practitioners from this particular practice site, these two practitioners from Mainland China would have suffered more, and maybe they would have became unable to continue their cultivation.
Before suing Jiang Zemin in Chicago, many practitioners overcame many difficulties in order to be able to join the parade and clarify the truth about Falun Gong to people. Before the parade, one practitioner suddenly couldn't walk anymore. Apparently, her former sciatica problem reappeared. She wanted to rest at the hotel. Her roommates realized it was interference. Why didn't the back problem show up some few days earlier or later? Did it have to show up just before the parade? Master wouldn't choose such a day to eliminate her karma. Several practitioners surrounded her, sat down and sent forth righteous thoughts. The practitioner felt that a bad thing left her body; then her legs were fine. She could walk again.
In another situation, during a big Falun Gong event, a practitioner suddenly lost consciousness. The practitioners around her realized the importance of the event and sent forth righteous thoughts as a group, every 20 minutes, until she came to and she could stand up. This example shows the strong power of righteous thoughts.
In some areas, practitioners have been suffering sickness karma interference continuously. The main contact person had such a problem several times. It was because the practitioners in that area didn't understand the evil's interference. They believed that sickness karma interference is related to personal cultivation, and thought that others could not help. Or they just sent forth righteous thoughts only when the sickness became very dangerous. They didn't form a unified force, a whole body. If we lose even a single practitioner, many sentient beings will be destroyed, and Master will be sad. So we must pay attention to righteous thoughts, and form an indestructible unified body, to prevent the evil from using our loopholes.
