(Clearwisdom.net) After I read the Clearwisdom editorial department's notification indicating that the exercise music would be broadcast at 3:50 a.m. every morning, I began to practice the exercises in unison with practitioners all over China by following the exercise music from my mp3 player. I found the effect was very good. Earlier, since my righteous thoughts were not strong, I frequently missed sending forth righteous thoughts at 6:00 a.m.. I went to work during the day. After work, I felt too tired to study the Fa or practice the exercises, and only felt like going to sleep. This situation lasted day after day. I did not know how to forge ahead diligently. Teacher said:
"When we do our cultivation exercises a field is formed around us. What kind of field is it? Some people say that it's a qi field, or a magnetic field, or an electric field. But actually, that's wrong no matter what field you call it, because the matter that this field contains is incredibly rich. Almost every kind of matter that makes up all the dimensions of the universe is included in this gong, so it's a bit more fitting for us to call it an energy field. And that's why we usually call it an energy field."("Energy Field," the Third Talk, Zhuan Falun)
I enlightened that practitioners are one body. If practitioners all over the world practice the exercises at 3:50 a.m., the energy field will be very big. If all practitioners cultivate ourselves in such a strong field, our improvement will be faster and we will forge ahead more diligently.
One practitioner is a farmer. She got up at 6 a.m. to till the land. She was busy for the whole morning, and then did the cooking at noon. In the afternoon, she would feel sleepy when studying the Fa, and fall asleep for the entire afternoon. She did this almost every day. She finally enlightened that this was interference from the demon of drowsiness, but she could not break through it. Afterwards, she also started to practice the exercises at 3:50 a.m.. Just two days later, positive effects began to show up. She told me that although she had cultivated in Falun Gong for years, she had never before finished practicing all five exercises at one time. Now she not only finishes the five exercises, she also never feels sleepy during the day, so she has plenty of time to study the Fa, clarify the truth, till the land and do the cooking.
We are cultivators. We should follow the Fa's principles. If we think that getting up early is improper, that is just an excuse for the attachment of seeking comfort. Many practitioners around me have begun to attend morning practice. Let us forge ahead diligently, and follow the process of Fa rectification.
The above is my personal realization. I welcome fellow practitioners to point out anything improper.
