(Clearwisdom.net) Fellow practitioners and I have a common understanding about bringing Teacher more joy and less worry. This has also been mentioned many times in other practitioners' experience sharing articles. Certainly, as a disciple, it is not wrong for them to be grateful for Teacher's salvation. Due to this understanding, we often do not think of Teacher, either unintentionally or intentionally. For example, when facing tribulation, we seldom think of asking Teacher for help in order not to burden Teacher. But after studying the Fa, we realized that whether to think of Teacher frequently or not is an important issue in cultivation, and there is a much deeper meaning in it.
After considering it thoroughly, I realize that whenever we think of the fact that we are the disciples of a great Teacher with boundless compassion, our righteous thoughts will be strengthened. Whenever we think of the fact that Teacher is beside us and protecting us, our fear will be reduced when clarifying the truth. Whenever we think of what Teacher endured for us disciples, we will urge ourselves to advance diligently. Whenever we warn the evil sternly, "I am Teacher's disciple," the evil will be shaken. Whenever we think of Teacher's Fa rectification and our prehistoric great mission, we will treasure our time in saving sentient beings.
Meanwhile, thinking of Teacher frequently is related to the root issue of respecting Teacher and the Fa, believing in Teacher and the Fa, and having strong righteous thoughts. When many fellow practitioners were beaten savagely, instead of thinking of Teacher, they shouted out "Mom!" Thereupon, the old forces seized the biggest excuse for persecution, saying to Teacher: "Did he treat you as his Teacher?" Without righteous thoughts, Teacher and the law-guarding gods have no other means, but to become extremely worried. On the surface, thinking of Teacher or not may seem a small matter. But this thought comes not from the sky above, but from long-term Fa study and solid cultivation.
According to my personal understanding, I think the biggest worry of Teacher is not how much he endures for his disciples, but that his disciples cannot let go of attachments, or that we lack righteous thoughts when facing life and death trials, and during critical moments forget that we are Teacher's disciples and that Teacher is right beside us.
Whenever we think of Teacher, the power of Dafa will manifest in us.
