(Clearwisdom.net) Since the Sichuan earthquake disaster, the evil Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has used all kinds of wicked means to harass practitioners at an overseas Quitting the CCP Service Center. It has fabricated news in China to spread rumors. On various forum websites, it has published articles to defame Dafa and Master. The CCP is ignoring lives lost in the disaster and is intensifying its effort to poison the minds of innocent sentient beings and persecute the nation's Dafa practitioners.
Personally, I realized that part of this was the old forces' arrangement, but our human notions are also mixed into it. Lately, in some of the experience sharing articles on the web, it was mentioned that certain practitioners showed a lot of concern over the earthquake and made donations. This affected our righteous thoughts and interfered with saving sentient beings in a more effective way. Watching scenes from the quake zone, many Dafa practitioners were tearful. But at this time, we should focus more on how we didn't do well and that this disaster caused many lives to lose the opportunity to be saved. To Dafa practitioners, the tears should be tears of benevolent compassion. One practitioner mentioned in his article, that in his dream, he saw that Master had endured enormous karma for sentient beings in this disaster. At this time, we should purify our righteous thoughts even more, as Master's disciples, and help Master rectify the Fa. Our motivation to clarify the truth should not be ordinary people's emotion.
Every time a big event occurs, there will be some interference by human notions caused by the event. At the same time, if as Dafa practitioners, we don't rectify our own thoughts in time about this event and are moved by society's atmosphere, it may lead to inadequate righteous thoughts and cause the elements of the old forces' arrangements to go into effect in various places. It is like a piece of diamond, incomparably strong and stable. However, once a small slit appears, it will split up more and more.
"Under trying circumstances of any type, you must all keep steady in thought. Just by staying unaffected you will be able to handle all situations." ("Teaching the Fa at the Conference in the Midwest-U.S.") This is Master's teaching to us before the persecution started. At the last moment of Fa-rectification, we may face more and more situations, but whatever situation we face, we should only save people. To save them, we need to purify our thoughts continuously. No matter how big the vibration is, use our righteous thoughts to save them. This is being ultimately responsible for people.
