(Clearwisdom.net) In the Fa-rectification period, we are bound to encounter many interfering factors in cultivation. When sending righteous thoughts, we always pay attention to interference from the outside, but we do not pay much attention to interference among practitioners. It has brought us many losses and also has done a great deal of damage. We should be alert!
Lives in the old cosmos have deviated from the principles of the cosmos. Degenerate notions can reflect in practitioners' minds at any time. Teacher told us that the old forces arranged for there to be spies among practitioners who do damage to "test" Dafa and practitioners. If a Dafa practitioner does not follow Teacher's requirements, then he must be following the old force arrangements, because the old forces made very detailed arrangements to interfere with practitioners. Therefore, while taking the Fa as teacher, we must also truly cultivate and rectify ourselves and safeguard Dafa. Teacher said:
"Some disrupters say the Buddha Law is good when he is actually disrupting it. Such a disruption is most difficult to distinguish or see through and is most harmful. This is the very reason why Buddha Sakyamuni's Dharma has become lost in India." ("The Lesson of Buddhism" in Zhuan Falun (Volume II))
Teacher also said:
"In fact, most interference for Dafa comes internally, from practitioners themselves. External factors can only affect a few individuals and are unable to alter the Fa. Whether it be at present or in the future, those who can undermine our Fa are none other than our own disciples. Be careful!" ("Immutable" in Essentials for Further Advancement)
When we see certain practitioners not being rational, using words and actions that do not conform to Dafa, who even interfere with other practitioners, we must kindly and responsibly point it out to them. The practitioners who discover the problem should also look inward. If the practitioner(s) still do not listen, but lose self-control and demonstrate unclear consciousness, we should send righteous thoughts to eliminate the factors behind the scenes. We should do Fa-rectification and not let the evil take advantage of any loopholes.
