For many years, Master has asked Dafa disciples to genuinely study the Fa. After so many years of cultivation, I came to realize that we may have been cultivating under the old force' plan, which includes eliminating the various attachments and types of persecution they set up for us. It made me think that if Dafa disciples really did a good job studying the Fa, our Master would not have to emphasize the importance of Fa study again and again. If we really, truly studied the Fa with our hearts, we would remember we are Dafa disciples wherever we are, in whatever situation we are in, and with whomever we face. We would remember what Master teaches in the Fa, and catch our weaknesses in cultivation, strengthen our righteous thoughts, and cultivate ourselves according to the Fa's requirements. We would then be cultivating ourselves in the Fa.
Truly studying the Fa is not only a long-term issue but also a daily necessity. There are still a lot of practitioners passively cultivating themselves in the interference and persecution. They realize the situation needs to change only after some bad things happen, and then double, or triple the effort is required to change the situation. From my personal point of view, this is a typical representation of not truly studying the Fa. Certainly, continuously and genuinely studying is itself a practitioner's level of cultivation, and whether the 3 things we do every day meet the requirement is a test of studying the Fa. For a long time, some of our practitioners study the Fa with' attachments and they can not see the deep meaning of the Fa. Some are too busy to have any time to study the Fa. Some study the Fa because they still want to pursue benefits in the ordinary human world, and so on.... The above phenomenon indicates that how, and how well we do studying the Fa, are the fundamental problems.
I have a traditional way, which is to recite the Fa. During repeated, solemn recitation and true cultivation of our xinxing, we will naturally understand deeper meanings of the Fa as the quality of the Fa study improves. In fact, even successful people in ordinary human society are able to be well versed in the books of their fields. For Dafa disciples who have waited for the Fa throughout millions of lives, shouldn't we put more energy and mindfulness into studying the Fa?
