(Minghui.org) I did not feel right in the second half of 2023, as I always felt sleepy and lacked energy. While studying the Fa I experienced distracting thoughts and I was not able to study the Fa with a tranquil mind. Sometimes even filthy thoughts and Maoist quotes and verses would suddenly appear. I was disappointed and perplexed.
As the New Year approached, I felt as if I was losing my mind. I couldn’t focus when sending forth righteous thoughts, and couldn’t settle down during meditation. While sleeping, I was interfered with by the demon of lust, and was not able to rest very well. I kept sending out righteous thoughts but it was not effective. I became fearful at night, and although I was exhausted, I did not want to go to sleep. As soon as I fell asleep, nightmares came.
Around this time I also developed back and leg pain. I became discouraged and depressed, and no longer regularly went out to raise awareness of the persecution of Falun Dafa to the people. In December of 2023 my cultivation state was not good, but I still went forward with efforts to negate the slander of Falun Dafa by the Chinese Communist Party. However, as soon as I left home I became unsteady on my feet and experienced a fall to the ground. At the time, I did not recognize that this was evil interference.
I read an article by a fellow practitioner sometime later regarding evil interference. The author identified the root cause of her experience with evil interference as an unclean energy field surrounding her. I then considered that my space field might also not be clean, and it might have the same cause. I suddenly remembered my granddaughters’ textbooks that had been stored in my bedroom for over a year. I wondered if they had something to do with my cultivation state.
After the New Year 2024, I began cleaning out my granddaughters’ various textbooks. In the Chinese history books, especially, there were pictures of communist leaders of the past, and old doctrines of communism. There were a total of three bags of these books! I did not have a nightmare that night!
But I had another vivid dream the following night, during which I was walking in the forest and noticed a wolf staring at me in the distance. I woke up in a cold sweat. I thought I might need to do some more cleaning. I did find more of those books, and promptly threw them out. I felt better almost immediately! I was clearheaded, and no longer drowsy when I studied Dafa. My insomnia disappeared, and everything returned to normal!
I realized that at the end of the Fa-rectification, the evil specter of communism is all-pervasive, and watching with eager eyes. As Dafa disciples, it is necessary to identify and distinguish the interference and persecution by the evil specter promptly and put a stop to it.
I wrote this experience to remind fellow practitioners that if you have old textbooks from your children at home, or anything that has content related to communism and the like, they should be cleaned up in a timely manner. Also, help your relatives and friends to clean out their surroundings. This will help save all sentient beings from being disturbed and restrained by evil influences that may lie hidden around them.
