I. Merging into the Fa rectification process after obtaining the Fa
I have practiced Falun Gong for over six years. First I would like to talk about my experiences of clarifying the truth on the Internet. I am sixty-two years old and had no prior experience with the computer. My education was limited to elementary school and I didn't even know the twenty-six letters of the English alphabet. One year after I obtained the Fa, I started clarifying the truth to others. I started by writing letters and making phone calls. However, it was not as effective as I expected.
Later I started learning how to use the computer. Fellow practitioners were very patient and I was also very diligent. I spent the first week on learning how to turn on and off a program. It was very difficult for me to learn the basics. Fellow practitioners suggested to me to learn English. I hesitated thinking it would be hard for me since I was so old. I almost gave up. Fortunately fellow practitioners tirelessly came to my house and taught me the basics such as how to use the mouse and how to "copy and paste".
At that time, I was lazy and always had the notion that "it is OK as long as I am doing something". However, I need to make breakthroughs in order to clarify truth in greater detail. Later because I participated in other activities such as attending Fa conference overseas, I discontinued clarifying the truth on the Internet.
I only started formally clarifying truth last year when I needed to convince others to withdraw from the CCP. It has been over a year and I have clarified the truth to people in mainland China every day. In retrospect, the "copy and paste" I learned in the past was actually laying a foundation for today's use. During this last year, over ten fellow practitioners came to help me with technical problems. I am very grateful for their selfless effort.
II. Dafa disciples are one body
During the process of clarifying the truth to convince people to withdraw from CCP, I came to truly understand what one body means. I had many questions regarding the use of the computer. I have always relied on fellow practitioners to help me. Until recently, I encountered much interference and I need to type in English to use a program. I initially took it as a chance to practice my English. It worked. I thought to myself: now I can clarify the truth again. However, I didn't look inside. Until recently I could not make people take my truth materials. Fellow practitioners suggested many other ways and they did not work for me.
At that time, I still did not look within. I was thinking that it was not my problem. I would walk around the problem. Just before I was about to dial to China, a fellow practitioner said to me, "We are Gods. How can we be interfered with by people or evil beings?" Although I knew this, I never paid attention to it. Only today it touched me when I was indeed interfered with.
I sat down immediately to send forth righteous thoughts. My tears came out. I thought, "I did not cultivate well and consequently was taken advantage by evil forces. Teacher, please support me. All Buddha, Dao's and Gods in other dimensions, please help me." In the past, I always thought that I did not cultivate well and my righteous thoughts were not strong enough. As a result, the effect was not so good when I sent forth righteous thoughts. This time after I sent forth righteous thoughts, I went online again and found everything went smoothly. Not only could I send out things, but also I did not need to type in English. Everything was running smoothly. However, I still encounter problems when my righteous thoughts aren't strong.
Now I watch my thoughts every moment. I examine to see if my thoughts meet the standard set for a cultivator. I rectify my thoughts at every moment. If my thoughts are not right, the effect of truth clarification is not good. It seems very simple yet it's very complex. I came to understand that while doing three things, we are cultivating ourselves. We need to constantly look inside and not fear interference. Every interference is an opportunity to improve Xinxing and reach a higher level.
