(Minghui.org) There are several recent articles on Minghui that shared their understandings of Master’s words of “Most of our Dafa disciples will join me as the Fa rectifies the human world.” (“Wake Up”) I would like to share my thoughts too.

According to my observation of our local practitioners, I estimate that about 10% (or at most 20%) of Falun Dafa practitioners in China have been persisting in validating the Fa after the persecution started in 1999. 

Despite the persecution, many people, both inside and outside of China, still took up Falun Dafa. I believe these relatively latecomers to Dafa far exceed the above-mentioned veteran Dafa disciples in China. 

It is my understanding that “most of our Dafa disciples” Master mentioned in “Wake Up” may refer to the latecomers who joined Dafa practice after the persecution began in 1999. If they do not meet the criteria of consummation when the Fa-rectification ends, they would have an opportunity to continue practicing as the Fa rectifies the human world. 

I also believe another group of practitioners may also belong to “most of our Dafa disciples” that Master mentioned. 

“Even if some Dafa disciples will continue on with me in the period of the Fa’s rectification of the human world, we nonetheless need to draw a demarcation. The era of Fa-rectification period Dafa disciples is something monumental. I won’t get into what happens after that.” (“Fa Teaching at the 2019 New York Fa Conference”)

My understanding of these words from Master is that some disciples follow Master when the Fa rectifies the human world because they have certain missions. This group of practitioners are different from the latecomers mentioned above because they have met the standards of consummation. They are not leaving the human world because they need to do things when the Fa rectifies the human world. In previous Minghui articles, some practitioners had shared what they saw through their celestial eyes of some disciples who cultivated very well staying behind to help Master do certain things in the human world. 

To sum it up, I feel that “most of our Dafa disciples” Master mentioned may include the latecomers to Dafa and those who have met the consummation standards but stay behind to assist Master in rectifying the human world.

For the rest of us who had vowed to be Dafa disciples during the Fa-rectification Period, we should stop using Master’s words “Most of our Dafa disciples will join me as the Fa rectifies the human world” to justify our slacking off in cultivation, thinking that we could still continue cultivating when the Fa rectifies the world. Let us try to do everything well before the Fa-rectification ends so that we leave no regret behind.
