(Minghui.org) I am a young practitioner and I started practicing Falun Dafa in October last year. I wrote this article to help the practitioners who do not have a clear understanding on sending righteous thoughts or have difficulty focusing and improving.

Because my school switched to online classes due to the pandemic I had a lot of free time to read the Fa at home. Since I had problems with my mind wandering while sending forth righteous thoughts, I decided to resolve this problem yesterday.

I started to read the guidelines for sending righteous thoughts on Minghui.org, and then I sent righteous thoughts for 15 minutes. Afterwards, I searched for experience sharing articles on Minghui written by other practitioners about focusing one’s mind while sending righteous thoughts. After reading an article, I sent righteous thoughts for 15 minutes. I did this a few times yesterday and today. I felt that I made great progress.

I received a notice from the Falun Dafa Association that Shen Yun’s arrival in Taiwan faced interference and practitioners were urgently asked to send righteous thoughts. I sent righteous thoughts when I had time. 

Today, during one round of sending righteous thoughts, I had a firm thought: “Whoever participates in this interference and no matter how high he is, he must be stopped.” At that moment, I suddenly sensed a hot feeling from inside out. 

Because I hadn’t had this feeling for a long time while sending righteous thoughts, I was startled. But because I had a sense of joy and a mentality of showing off, my following round of sending righteous thoughts was not pure. I did not have that feeling again. Looking back on it afterwards, I could have made a greater impact, but I fell short because of my own attachments. It was a pity!

I looked inward for the source of this joyful feeling. It came from the thought that I was a new practitioner. In my mind, I regarded cultivation during Fa-rectification as an additional thing to do, and I didn’t understand my responsibilities. Since I was the only new practitioner in the local Fa-study group the other practitioners encouraged and praised me. I always felt that I was superior even if I didn’t express it. When faced with things that did not go well, I was reluctant to look inward.

I enlightened today that Shen Yun’s sacred mission of saving sentient beings transcends all the norms of the old principles—interfering with Shen Yun is interfering with the eternal future of the audience members who should be saved; the sin is countless times worse than killing! 

When the Fa-rectification is interfered with, all Dafa disciples must take this issue most seriously. How can there be any distinction between new and veteran practitioners? Absolutely not. Master saves us with the greatest compassion, but the Fa itself has standards. The Fa regulates layers of gods and sentient beings, including you and me.

Sending righteous thoughts is serious. I realized that Master has endowed us all with supernatural powers. Their manifestation is determined by our faith in Master and the Fa. For the supernatural powers that we have not yet developed, as long as our thoughts are righteous at that moment and our xinxing meets the requirements of the Fa, Master’s Law Bodies and countless righteous gods can do everything for us. If one is attached to some phenomenon and one’s mind wanders while sending righteous thoughts, one’s level is lowered.

We must send righteous thoughts at the four global times. If you miss any of the times, you need to make it up as soon as possible. One should not take sending righteous thoughts as a formality. A young overseas practitioner shared with me: Sending righteous thoughts is not a lifestyle, but a principle. His words inspired me a lot.

Time passes quickly. We must follow the principles of Dafa and encourage each other to treasure this eternal opportunity, cultivate as diligently as when we first started, cultivate well, and assist Master in saving sentient beings.
