(Clearwisdom.net) I would like to share my years-long experience of sending forth righteous thoughts in close proximity.
Teacher taught us to eliminate the evil by sending forth righteous thoughts. I then had the understanding that it is Dafa disciples' unshakable duty to send forth righteous thoughts, and that eliminating the evil is for Fa-rectification and saving sentient beings, but I did not realize the importance of sending forth righteous thoughts in close proximity.
Teacher said in "Explaining the Fa During the 2003 Lantern Festival at the U.S. West Fa Conference:"
"And why is it a factor? Because this dimension has been divided into various segments by the final elements from high levels, and there are still differences existing in this dimension."
Teacher made mention of a case of sending forth righteous thoughts in Malta. He said in Touring North America to Teach the Fa:
"If you send forth righteous thoughts at the head of the evil from nearby it, the evil won't keep replenishing and protecting it fast enough, and that creature will take his last breath."
I realized from this the importance of sending forth righteous thoughts in close proximity and took the lesson to heart.
For years we have sent forth righteous thoughts in close proximity. Generally, I sent forth righteous thoughts before I leave home at 7 a.m. Whenever I got a chance, I went to the police department, police station, municipal CCP committee, and government office to send forth righteous thoughts.
One time, we heard that the authorities were plotting to set up a brainwashing center, so I suggested we send forth righteous thoughts in close proximity to disintegrate their plan. The more practitioners involved, the more effective it would be. A practitioner from out of town was very enthusiastic and left to notify all the practitioners he knew.
Some other local practitioners viewed sending forth righteous thoughts from a different perspective. One said, "You have an attachment to fear and dare not go to the 610 Office to clarify truth about Dafa, so you just send forth righteous thoughts while hiding in the woods. How will that help rescue the detained practitioners?" I was confused by her words. Was it wrong to send forth righteous thoughts? So I asked another practitioner for his opinion. He said, "We spent more than 10 days sending forth righteous thoughts. That took away time from our Fa study. The detained practitioners were still not released. It is a waste of time." I became anxious, but I still wanted to send forth righteous thoughts in close proximity, so I asked Teacher to give me guidance.
When I went to send forth righteous thoughts in the afternoon, Teacher let me see that in other dimensions there were four walls around the brainwashing center and that three of them had collapsed. I realized that we should continue sending forth righteous thoughts. Three days later, before the brainwashing center's first session had ended, it was closed down, even after more than 200,000 yuan had been spent on it.
Another time, a practitioner was detained but by then we had all learned the importance of sending forth righteous thoughts in close proximity. Thus, many practitioners went to the neighborhood of the detention center to send forth righteous thoughts. After some time, no good news came. Some practitioners stopped going to the detention center, but several of us still went there as long as we had time. The detained practitioner also held strong righteous thoughts, and his family demanded his release. Soon afterwards he was released.
Yet another time, a practitioner's husband was making trouble out of nothing and insisted on going to the courts to get a divorce. So, we went near the courthouse to send forth righteous thoughts. We tried to concentrate powerful righteous thoughts to disintegrate the evil elements controlling her husband. She also reasoned against his demands. The judge realized that being a Falun Gong practitioner was not grounds for divorce, so he turned down the husband's divorce appeal. We thus witnessed once more the mercy of Teacher, the supernatural power of Dafa, and the miracle of sending forth righteous thoughts in close proximity.
These kinds of things have happened again and again. I wrote them down so that fellow practitioners can see that sending forth righteous thoughts in close proximity is an important practice to assist Teacher to rectify the Fa.
In cultivation, although many things are not the way I expected them to be, I will behave better and better and be more and more diligent. I will fulfill my prehistoric vow and live up to the expectations of Teacher and sentient beings.
I welcome follow practitioners to correct anything improper.
Thank you, Teacher!
Thank you, my fellow practitioners!
