(Clearwisdom.net) In order to clarify the truth about Falun Gong to people and to help them learn more facts about the persecution of Dafa and Dafa practitioners, we need to write some articles to expose the persecution and to save sentient beings. Below are some of my experiences while writing articles that expose the evil.
1. The purpose of exposing the persecution is to eliminate evil so that we can save people. Master pointed out in the article Dafa Disciples' Righteous Thoughts are Powerful,
"Eliminating evil is thus doing Fa-rectification, and is also saving the world's people and sentient beings."
To save people is the basis and main goal of writing articles to expose the evil, not simply to expose the evil, so we should first think about offering salvation to sentient beings. If we write the articles only to expose the evil, from the angle of Fa-rectification, it seems to be a little bit off track.
Teacher says that
"Today I can tell you this: your cultivation is absolutely not a personal, simple matter of reaching Consummation--your cultivation is saving the countless sentient beings in the cosmic body that corresponds to you and who've put infinite hope in you. The cultivation of you all is saving the sentient beings in every single gigantic cosmic colossal firmament."
(Touring North America to Teach the Fa)
I remember when I was writing an article to expose the local detention center's persecution of Dafa practitioners, in my mind I was responsible for over 300 thousand local people and I was trying to save them. Accordingly, I did not run into very much interference.
2. Forget about "self." When writing an article is mentioned, some people show anxiety on their faces. Why are you so attached to yourself? Don't you want to get rid of the attachment? I had an experience while I was writing an article to expose the evil. At first I didn't have a clear mind about how to write the article and I thought about it for a long time, but I knew that I would able to write it and that I would also do a good job. One day when I was on my way to work, I realized that this wasn't about what I wanted to write, it was about what the sentient beings hoped for, it was the vow of many practitioners and the need of Fa-rectification. When I removed the thought of what I wanted to do, I truly removed my selfishness from it, so a righteous thought came out. Let go of the attachment of what you want to do, and instead think about the expectation that sentient beings have had for countless years. I am a particle of Dafa, so the wisdom naturally emerged. I finished the article that same evening.
Teacher says,
"Clarify the truth thoroughly, eliminate the evil with righteous thoughts, save all beings, and safeguard the Fa with determination..."

3. Suffocate the evil. Suffocating the evil is an essential reason for writing articles to expose the evil. However, what really suffocates the evil is the Fa, and the righteous thoughts and divine powers that practitioners cultivate from the Fa. These are not just words on the surface. So when I start writing an article, I will remember to totally suffocate the evil, including the notion that the evil may persecute me for doing so. I mentally project that the divine powers that come from all the local practitioners are behind each word. I ask Master and the practitioners from our country and the world to strengthen my ability to suffocate the evil in the cosmos without exception. I hope that all Dafa practitioners, during the last period of Fa-rectification, can pick up a pen and write articles to expose the evil that is persecuting Dafa and Dafa practitioners, so as to suffocate the evil.
