(Minghui.org) I received a phone call from a fellow practitioner, Ying (not her real name), at 2:18 p.m. on September 25, telling me that another practitioner, Mei (pseudonym), wasn’t doing well. I rushed to her house. On my way, I saw through my third eye that Mei had signed an agreement with the old forces about letting go of her life. I sent a thought: “The agreement between Mei and the old forces should be denied. We don’t allow any life to persecute her.”

I found Mei sitting in a chair, pale and weak. “Negate any agreement with the old forces.” I told her. “Don’t give your life to the old forces. Don’t allow the meddling deities of the old forces to take away your physical body. Ask Teacher for help.”

“I deny any of the old forces’ arrangements,” said Mei. “I have attachments, and I cultivate them away with Teacher’s Fa. Teacher decides everything for me.”

Mei started to vomit. I saw in another dimension a dark hand reaching into her throat and persecuting her. I intensified my righteous thoughts. But that dark hand was still there. I saw inside Mei's body an agreement in the form of a scroll, erect and vertical between her throat and stomach, and it was shaking. I tried to destroy the old agreement with righteous thoughts, but it didn't work.

Mei spoke with an ailing voice, “Teacher please help me.” At this moment, I could see that Mei was lying in a vast dimension filled with boundless black water. Teacher was holding Mei in his arms, cleansing her body. The black water around Teacher was rolling and rising. Many deities were watching. They were the deities that the old forces arranged.

I recited Teacher's poems, and Mei followed along:

“When disciples have ample righteous thoughtsMaster has the power to turn back the tide”(“The Master-Disciple Bond” from Hong Yin Vol. II)

“Lay down your human, mundane mind,The Fa gained, you now stand divine,Break free, and depart, these Three Realms,And ascend to Heaven with a Buddha Body.”(“Salvation Far and Wide” from Hong Yin)

“I am Teacher’s disciple,” said Mei. “I negate and don’t acknowledge any of the old forces’ arrangements. Teacher, please help me.” While silently searching for where she fell short, she said, “Two days ago, I was a little muddle-headed. I thought, 'If I didn’t make it, nobody would know.'” I told her that that this wasn’t her that was thinking. It was something projected into her mind by the evil.” Mei answered, “Yes, I realized that. It wasn’t me thinking that way. It was the old forces that forced the message into my brain. I don’t acknowledge it.”

We sent righteous thoughts together to eliminate the evil persecution towards Mei. I told her that Teacher has been purifying her body.” Mei thanked Teacher for his help. Ying and I were confident that Mei would be able to make it through this tribulation.

Two more practitioners arrived to send righteous thoughts. I saw that Teacher worked nonstop for three hours. I could relate to the hardships faced by Teacher when saving disciples.
Mei’s belief in the Fa was firm. Her determination to follow Teacher and the Fa was strong. She began her recovery that night. When I saw her the next morning, she could sit up and send righteous thoughts with us. By the afternoon, everything was back to normal. On the third day, she was back to Fa-rectification matters.

Complaining Instead of Believing

A few scenes appeared in front of me during the whole process. In an instant, I understood their inner meaning. I believe that they were hints from Teacher.

In one of the scenes a female practitioner had sickness karma. Teacher was helping her, yet she was complaining that Teacher was not helping her.

She said, “I have knelt in front of Teacher's portrait and admitted my mistakes.” When she was complaining, the old force deities were preventing Teacher from helping her. Countless giant deities tried to stop Teacher from saving her. Some even said to Teacher, “Look, is she your disciple? Does she regard you as her Master? You’ve been helping her day and night, yet she complains. In cultivation, this is despicable behavior for humans and gods.” This practitioner passed away.

Doubting Master

In another scene a practitioner came down with sickness karma. On the surface, she was relying on fellow practitioners’ help. But deep in her heart, she wasn’t confident. She wanted to go to a hospital.

Members of her family asked her if she wanted to practice Dafa, or go to the hospital. She cried and told them not to force her to make a choice. In the end, her family took her to a hospital.

Teacher had been helping her throughout the whole process. When she was in a coma in the intensive care unit, Teacher was still purifying her body. After she was released from the hospital, her family said that they spent over one hundred thousand yuan to save her life. They asked, “Did your Master save you?” This practitioner wondered, “Why didn’t Teacher take care of me?” All the Buddhas and Gods shook their heads when they saw that she had doubts about Teacher.

Controlled by Lust

A practitioner came down with sickness karma. She had been hiding her condition and attachment to lust from other practitioners. When someone told her that she had problems with lust, she got angry. She defended the lust substances in her dimensional field, and was obsessed with sexual fantasies.

The demon of lust and evil forces gathered in her environment and made her situation look even worse. They made her doubt practitioners’ righteous thoughts. She refused visits from practitioners. She believed that her problems worsened the more practitioners send righteous thoughts.

Many of the old force deities blocked the surroundings of her body. A large number of immortals were holding a book in which her lustful behavior was recorded. One deity said to Teacher, “Is she your disciple? Lust often springs up in her mind when she is reading the Fa. She never exposed this fact. Neither does she make an effort to get rid of it. She has been acting under the control of lust. She really isn't like a cultivator.”

After this practitioner passed away, some practitioners' belief in Dafa became unsteady. They said, “Look how many things she did to validate Dafa. Why did she pass away? She cultivated so well. Can I make it in cultivation? I have lost confidence in myself.” Their wavering made the old forces’ deities ridicule those practitioners, and some of the deities recorded those practitioners' wavering hearts and doubts.

Understanding Teacher's Hints 

These scenarios helped me enlighten to some issues. We need to have full confidence in Teacher and believe in the Fa. Whether it is sickness karma or any other challenging matter, any doubt and wavering will be an excuse for the evil to stop Teacher from helping us.

As Teacher’s disciples, we are very fortunate that we live in a time when the Fa light shines brightly everywhere. Our to-be-achieved accomplishments makes the meddling deities jealous. They go to extremes and find fault in Dafa disciples’ cultivation.

When every single thought that a Dafa disciple is not in line with the Fa, they will interfere. They obstinately assume that they are helping practitioners.

When Teacher is saving disciples, they see everything that Teacher does. When some cultivators have a slight doubt about Teacher and Dafa, they will drag these cultivators away from the cultivation community, make them breed demons in their minds, and project illusory and misleading messages into their brains. At this moment, it is crucially important whether a cultivator can clearly distinguish right from wrong.

When cultivators can be clear on what is right and what is wrong, they will be able to make it through the test or tribulation and elevate in level. When they fail to do so, and walk along with the old forces, they will fall into the old forces' trap. The old forces will make them slack off or build barriers around them and render them unable to feel Dafa’s miraculous power and practitioners’ compassion. Thus they will be steered far from Dafa, or totter along a rather bumpy path in cultivation. The old forces may also make them have sickness karma and even take away their lives.

As cultivators, we should have adamantine faith in Teacher and Dafa regardless of the circumstances. Dafa is the guarantee of our source of life and the guarantee for our return to our original homes. It is only when we assimilate to the Fa wholeheartedly that we can survive this treacherous human world and transform the karma that envelops us.

Teacher has been protecting us all along and helping us to resolve all the problems we have faced at each level. He is helping us to balance the grievances at different levels, the debts we owed, and the intricate relationships. He helps us enrich our paradises and takes care of all things, massive and trivial. The Buddha’s grace is vast and mighty!

Therefore, never have any slight doubt about Dafa and Teacher. We should regard such thoughts as interference and eliminate them. We should correct our notions, and help those who have not completely assimilated to Dafa to correct themselves, regardless of whether the external interference is tangible or intangible.

We must not regard any doubt as our own thought. We deny any such thoughts or lives that have doubt about Dafa, and we correct any improper state of our physical bodies and impure thinking. Only then can we continue to walk our cultivation path well.
