(Clearwisdom.net) We have a Fa-study group at my home. A fellow practitioner joined us and the third time she came, she shared her personal experiences with us. She said, "The energy field at your Fa-study group is so righteous. I have to let you know something about myself. Fellow practitioners, please help me. I have a very bad attachment, however, I can't get rid of it myself." She appeared to be in great agony. I could tell she wanted very much to remove that attachment. I thought, "Maybe it is my responsibility to help her since I heard what she said."
Therefore, practitioners in our Fa-study group talked to her about many Fa principles to help her know how dirty and dangerous the attachment was. During that process, we found she was able to recite Zhuan Falun and many other of Teacher's articles as well. It's just that she had a bad everyday people's attachment, so she was taken advantage of by evil forces in other dimensions. Because of that, she was sleepy when studying the Fa and she couldn't hold her palm upright when sending forth righteous thoughts. Meanwhile, we heard what other Fa-study groups thought of her. They lost their confidence in her. I said to myself, "She has the Fa in her heart. The evil was able to temporarily enlarge her attachment. Therefore her main consciousness was not clear and she couldn't tell the right way from the wrong." The evil was trying to drag her down. How come she was unable to come back when she believed in Teacher and the Fa? In my opinion, it was because our fellow practitioners didn't put their hearts into helping her. They said fellow practitioners' things are their responsibilities as well. However, they didn't walk the walk in this case.
Based on her situation and the things that we learned about her, we decided to help her out. She has a very solid Fa-study basis. She never gossiped about others. When people criticized her, she'd look inside. She is very considerate. However, due to the persecution, she couldn't go back home and she seldom saw her child. She wandered about by herself. She had a lot of pressure and she was very anxious. The thing that she needed the most was care and warmth. At that time, when someone was nice to her, she'd go to extremes. Even when a person pretended to care about her, she'd get attached to that person. I believed I should treat her like my little sister, give her attention and care, and help her strengthen Fa-study so her main consciousness could become stronger and she could find her way back.
With a lot of pressure, I made my choice - help her out! But not just help her. Instead of having her come to my home once every week, we invited her to live with us so she could study the Fa together with my wife. A life that is cultivating the Fa should be selfless and always consider others first. With this decision, we'd get up together in the morning to study the Fa and practice Dafa exercises.
After a few days, my wife and I realized that an issue with us was resolved - previously, my wife and I had tried very hard but simply couldn't get up at 3:50 a.m. to practice Dafa exercises in the morning. Suddenly we were able to, just like the old saying "helping others is helping oneself." We felt it was her helping us, not us helping her. It proved that with the characteristics of the new cosmos we would be able to harmonize ourselves when helping others.
So far, the fellow practitioner has been doing a good job with the three things. It took her about six months. She had a couple of ups and downs, but eventually she let go of her attachment. It was like coming out of a nightmare for her. From the bottom of my heart, I hope my fellow practitioners do not lose confidence in any of our fellow practitioners. Even a practitioner with huge attachments is still a being that came from high levels to be here waiting for the Fa for thousands and thousands of years. It would be a big loss to saving sentient beings during the Fa-rectification period if we lost one fellow practitioner.
