The process of Fa rectification is proceeding rapidly; this period of time is critical. Dafa practitioners all realize the urgency, and endeavor to do the three things well -- Study the Fa and cultivate our xinxing [heart, mind nature], clarify the truth, and send forth righteous thoughts. Especially regarding clarifying the truth and exposing the atrocities of the evil head, we have reached a common understanding and are working very hard on it. However, as the lawsuit moves forward, some problems among practitioners also emerge. Specifically, some practitioners have developed the attachment of pursuit and wish to win the lawsuit as soon as possible. Thus, they put their hopes in the hands of non-practitioners. Some practitioners who do not usually sit in front of the Chinese embassy also started one after another to go there and send forth righteous thought all day long, thus interfering with their performance at work during the day and clarifying the truth to people in society. One cannot help but be reminded of the lessons learned from the trip to Iceland last year. Sending forth righteous thought is one of three important things and we must do it well. But it is not good if we overemphasize one at the expense of the other two. In addition, the outcome will not be good if we pursue it with the mentality of seeking something from society.
I remember Teacher said:
"You worry about everything you do, I think you shouldn't be so attached. It's really hard to balance this relationship: if you think about it a lot, it's an attachment; if you think about it little, apparently you're afraid of doing something wrong. I don't think we need to go as far as making our minds tense." ("Explaining the Fa for Falun Dafa Assistants in Changchun" in the book Explaining the Content of Falun Dafa)
and needless to say, the unfettered pursuit of results or recognition by ordinary people. One person does it this way, then two persons also do it this way, and when many practitioners think this way, the old forces will take advantage of the loophole and interfere with us. In fact, regardless of the external circumstances and whatever ordinary people can do for us, we practitioners should just do what Fa rectification requires of us. The result will be the best. Otherwise complication can easily occur.
The purpose for Dafa practitioners in the Fa rectification period is not just to bring Jiang Zemin to justice, but also to save sentient beings to the greatest extent possible. In relation to the lawsuit against the evil head and "610 Office," we have yet to meet the requirement for a "large-scale, comprehensive, and detailed clarification of the truth." At the same time, there are many other things in Fa rectification that need to be completed in an orderly fashion, and which can only be carried out by Dafa practitioners. Let us all keep Teacher's words in mind: "Do but pursue not, constantly dwelling in the Dao" (Hongyin -- in the Dao)
