(Clearwisdom.net) I studied Master's new article repeatedly, and I was shocked by every sentence. I had written an article entitled “I am a God” for the Eighth Internet Experience Sharing Conference for Practitioners in China. A fellow practitioner pointed out some inappropriate words when typing the article for me. Not only did I not listen to her, I felt that I was very righteous and did not have any fear because of my strong righteous thoughts. When sharing with other practitioners, I often shared many stories to show how well I had cultivated and wanted other practitioners to admire me. As a result, one practitioner came to see me when there was a conflict in his family, another came to see me because his family member was sick, another came to see me because the local police contacted me, and someone else contacted me to buy supplies for producing Dafa materials. All this exhausted me. I began to show symptoms of sickness karma with very high blood pressure. While on a business errand on my electric bicycle, I hit the door of a taxi. I was thrown off my bike and I fell down several feet away. My head hit the ground with a heavy thud. One of my elbows was cut. I searched inwards for several days, but I could not find any reason. I thought the evil was interfering with me for no reason because I was doing a great thing.
Last night I went out to send forth righteous thoughts and again fell while riding my bicycle. My other elbow suffered a big cut. I did not search inward this time. I just thought I was doing a great thing and I was better than others. There was a patch of ringworm on each of my elbows and it was very itchy. I searched long and hard for the reason, but I did not find any. I always thought I did very well in the three things, so why did I still suffer sickness karma?
I thought about it over and over, but it was hard to find reasons. After I studied Master's new article repeatedly, I finally found the reason. I felt very ashamed. I have walked on the edge of danger, but I still felt good. I only did a little in validating the Fa, but my attachments expanded. I always felt I was better than others, which is a clear indication of breeding demons in my own mind.
Fortunately Master's immeasurable compassion rectified me in time. I saw my attachments to pride, validating myself and showing off. It is the worst part of the old cosmos. I must eliminate it seriously. I will study the Fa diligently, strive forward in cultivation, and catch up with the progress of Fa-rectification. Thank you, Master, for your compassionate salvation.
