(Clearwisdom.net) Because I was persecuted for practicing Falun Dafa, my husband divorced me. For the last two years, I have been harassed constantly by the police, and I realized that it was because my dimensional field was not pure enough. During my cultivation, the more pure I was, the less harassment I suffered. Eventually, there was basically no more harassment.
I recently received a text message from someone telling me that he was out of town, and that he would be back for the Chinese New Year and he wanted to visit me. I knew that he did not get along with his wife very well, so I replied, "It would be better if you sent this message to your wife." Several days later, he sent me a very common text message of new year greetings. I know that if I replied, he would probably ask about visiting me again. Should I meet with him? I knelt in front of Master's photo and thought it over quietly.
I thought that first of all, I should determine whether it is part of my path arranged by Master. The path that Master arranges for me is for saving sentient beings and validating the Fa. If it is Master who arranged for me to save him, is it possible for us to meet during the night? Is it possible for him, a person who does not get along well with his wife, to come to my (a single woman's) house at night? If my path is awry, then the old forces will make use of the loophole and keep him from learning the truth. So, if it is not Master's arrangement, then it is interference from the old forces.
When I thought about in that manner, I decided to send forth righteous thoughts. I thought, "I am a Dafa disciple. The old forces do not deserve to control an ordinary person to test me. The old forces are not allowed to persecute sentient beings or to do anything that interferes with a Dafa disciple's cultivation. If this person needs me to save him, I will save him openly, using more wisdom. The way should be in accordance with the ordinary people's principles. Let me completely eliminate the interference and persecution of Dafa disciples." After I sent forth righteous thoughts, I replied with a polite text message of new year's greetings.
Later, when I looked inward, I found there were some loopholes in my xinxing. That is, I was measuring his character with everyday people's notions. I was thinking, "He is simple, honest, humorous and kindhearted. I feel sympathy that his wife does not treat him well." These notions are filled with emotion. If I have emotions, I will be affected by them.
I realize that as a woman, I longed to have a good marriage, and to be understood and protected. I am lured by the dream of a harmonious relationship between a couple. These are attachments that I should try to take lightly and further let them go. If I still have any of these human notions, the old forces will make use of them, and magnify them. If I am interfered with by emotions, then I could not see things from the Fa. I will not know if I am on a forked road, and could slowly walk further away until I am dragged down.
Dafa is sacred. As Dafa disciples who validate Dafa in the human world, we should let the sentient beings know how noble and pure Dafa is. If we are reluctant to let go of our attachments, or there is an attachment that goes unnoticed, then the sentient beings may have a bad impression of Dafa. It is not a matter of whether we could cultivate to consummation. Instead, it is about whether a huge number of people can be saved. Cultivation is very serious. It is very urgent to save human beings. I hope any practitioners who have these kinds of problems will awaken.
