(Clearwisdom.net) I organized a school reunion not so long ago, and invited about thirty of my old classmates to meet with our middle school teacher. Some of my classmates now work in the armed forces and some are school headmasters, professors, company directors, businessmen, engineers, or government officials, or work for the Procuratorate.
We all seemed very happy to see each other again after all these years. I demonstrated the five sets of exercises to my teacher and recited many poems from Hong Yin to her. I also told her about the beauty of Dafa, and later gave her a copy of Zhuan Falun, the exercise instruction video and a copy of the Shen Yun Performing Arts performances. I told one of my classmates, who was a political director in the armed forces, about Falun Gong and helped him to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. He was very happy and thanked me repeatedly. Since our reunion, I have helped more than eighty percent of my classmates to quit the CCP. I then began to develop the mentality of zealotry and showing off, and pursued comfort. I thought, I was tired with all the Fa-study, saving people, Dafa work and doing my housework over the past few years and I needed to take a break and have a good rest.
I was still lost in the beautiful memory of our reunion a month later, and couldn't concentrate to calmly study the Fa or send forth righteous thoughts, and I couldn't effectively clarify the facts to people.
Fortunately, Master woke me up by compassionately giving me some hints. I am deeply aware of the responsibility I shoulder as a practitioner during the Fa-rectification period: I am here to save sentient beings.
I work in a governmental department, and the morality of people who work there has greatly degenerated. They are corrupt; they give and take bribes. But many of them are divine beings who came from very high levels, and are the lords and kings of different ethnic groups from different periods of time. Their being saved amounts to the salvation of innumerable sentient beings.
Master said,
“Once the current time period is over, the first large-scale process of weeding out sentient beings will begin.” (“Let Go of Human Attachments and Save the World's People”)
I now understand how urgent it is to save people, and I also truly understand the meaning of our responsibility and mission. In the future, I will maintain righteous thoughts and do the three things well to save people and fulfill my prehistoric vows.
I welcome fellow practitioners to point out anything inappropriate.
