(Clearwisdom.net) When practitioners come to pick up Falun Dafa truth clarification materials they often ask me, "Do you have any new articles?" Some practitioners even ask, "Is it really true that Master has not published any new Fa lectures for nearly a year?"
To be honest, I also had such thoughts. Similar to other practitioners, we look forward to new articles published by Master so that our minds and spirits will be encouraged and excited by new Fa principles. We are using our human sides to consider Master and the great changes in the Fa-rectification of the cosmos.
However, today while I was studying the Fa, I read something that Master said that made a deep impression on me and gave me new insight. Master said,
"Whether you can see me or not, I hope that it won't affect you in terms of doing well the things that Dafa disciples should do, and you should do even better. In fact, when you really aren't able to see me and still manage to do better, then that's even more remarkable." ("Teaching the Fa at the 2004 Washington DC Fa Conference")
Master also said,
"Actually, I like to see you, too. You know, in this social world of ordinary people, the people you come into contact with, you know, they're all ordinary. All those ordinary human thoughts and behaviors that people have are hard for me to take. I enjoy being with you, because you are quite far from the realm of ordinary people now. But for the sake of your Consummation, it's best I don't see you too often. (Teacher laughs) That's why I haven't met with you often. In short, I want to leave you with the opportunity to establish mighty-virtue." ("Teaching the Fa at the 2004 Washington DC Fa Conference")
Yes, Master would like us to establish greater mighty virtue and that is why he doesn't see us very often, nor does he publish new articles very often so that we won't develop new attachments--attachments to new articles from Master. Why don't we understand Master's good intention? In fact, what Master told practitioners has been made clear in his Fa lecture but practitioners just didn't enlighten to it and missed one good opportunity after another to understand Master's words.
In conclusion, let's encourage each other with Master's Fa lecture,
"It's Dafa--such an immense Law--and Fa-rectification--such a major event. That alone lifts you to a lofty place. And what's more, everything that you do in Fa-rectification is for sure the most magnificent, because even history was created for it. So you should try your best to do well the things that a Dafa disciple should do, and every single thing is of utmost importance. I've asked you to do the three things well. You must do the three things well. You should do those things well all the way up to your Consummation. Your mighty-virtue and everything of your future come from those things." ("Teaching the Fa at the 2004 Washington DC Fa Conference")
If each of us were to study this Fa lecture ten times, would we still be attached to reading new articles? Master has made it clear about the three things that we need to do. What are we still pursuing? How much of Master's Fa lectures do we really understand or follow? Let's study the Fa and assimilate ourselves into the Fa and do the three things well so that Master doesn't have to worry about us so much.
The above is what I have enlightened to at my own level. Please kindly point it out if there is anything inappropriate.
