(Minghui.org) I am a Falun Dafa practitioner working in New York. Many New Yorkers spent their time at home during the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) virus pandemic. As I am considered an essential media worker, I joined several colleagues and went to the office six days a week. We stayed calm and adhered to society’s safety requirements. I was very confident that the practitioners’ righteousness would protect us from harm caused by the virus.
Master Li said:
“Clarifying the facts and saving sentient beings are what you need to accomplish. There is nothing else for you to accomplish. There is nothing else in this world that you need to accomplish.” (“Fa Teaching Given at the 2015 New York Fa Conference”)
I believe that Dafa practitioners should pay more attention to awakening the conscience of people during the CCP pandemic. Unfortunately, many people have lost their lives and the CCP virus pandemic is not over yet. No matter how difficult the situation is, we must find ways to overcome the barriers, and continue to clarify the facts about Falun Dafa and awaken the conscience of more people.
Before the pandemic, several practitioners and I clarified the facts at scenic tourist spots. However, since travel has now been temporarily restricted in many places, we had to find new ways to clarify the facts. I realized that as long as we dedicate our hearts to awakening people’s conscience, new ways will open up for us. I should not be complacent and do only what I know I am capable of doing, or what I enjoy doing. Teacher will give us wisdom so we can figure out new methods to awaken the conscience of sentient beings, and the power of Dafa will show itself unexpectedly.
Since early 2020, I felt that fellow practitioners around me were cultivating more diligently, and becoming more attentive when studying the Fa and practicing the exercises. Their amazing work in awakening the conscience of sentient beings motivated me to do better.
Although I am doing truth clarification work every day, I still have some shortcomings. Sometimes I feel sleepy when studying the Fa or sending forth righteous thoughts. At those moments, I find that my dimensional field is very cloudy, as if covered by fog. After sending forth righteous thoughts to remove my bad thoughts and clear the foggy substances, I feel like a shell has been removed and I can advance to the next level.
In addition to studying the Fa, practicing the exercises, sending forth righteous thoughts, and clarifying the facts, I believe that it is very important to assimilate to the Fa’s requirements at different levels. After consistently improving ourselves based on the Fa, we will have the power to awaken the conscience of people.
It’s also important that we don’t go to extremes in doing things. Although we need to hurry up, we cannot overlook paying attention to secular worldly things. People may misunderstand and think that we are cold, or do not care about them. Any extreme behavior hinders us from demonstrating the wonderfulness of Falun Dafa, causes difficulties, and gives the old forces excuses to persecute us.
We have practiced for many years. Teacher pushed us to a high level a long time ago, and gave us the ability to eliminate the evil persecution. However, if we don’t have confidence, we won’t be able to use the ability properly.
For example, a practitioner who was coughing for a long time, recovered after looking inward and sending righteous thoughts to deny the persecution. However, another practitioner told him that he should bear some hardship while reworking karma, so he began to relax the thoughts of denying the persecution. As a result, his coughing worsened. I suggested that he take action to deny the persecution instead of bearing the ordeals passively. He looked inward to remove his attachment and sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the old forces. This time, he recovered from the coughing quickly.
Another practitioner was also coughing for a while. She did not want to do anything about it, because she thought it was arranged by Teacher. Her idea seemed righteous at first, but she unknowingly let the evil interference continue without trying to stop it.
Teacher taught us Falun Dafa, and guided us to cultivate based on the Fa. We cannot expect that Teacher will do everything for us. Instead, we should use our abilities to do what we should do. After the practitioner realized her issues, she looked inward to find her attachments and sent forth righteous thoughts to deny the persecution. Her long-term coughing soon disappeared.
Teacher said:
“But at present, an epidemic like the “CCP Virus” (Wuhan Pneumonia) comes for a purpose and has its targets. It comes to eliminate followers of the evil Party, and those who go along with the evil CCP.” (“Rationality”)
“Genuine Dafa disciples all have energy, are the ones who eliminate karma and eradicate germs, and are the envoys of salvation at the end times. They all know to be rational in saving people and clarifying the truth.” (“Rationality”)
I believe that the bodies of those practitioners who have cultivated diligently for years have been replaced by high-energy matter, and a strong energy field surrounds them. Not only can the virus not harm them, but the virus will be eliminated by their energy. Even if some practitioners have a false reaction like a virus infection, as long as they truly look inward to cultivate they will recover very quickly.
Communist evil spirits and elements are not only in China. These evil spirits are made up of hatred and various depravities in the lower space of the universe. If people keep hatred in their hearts, including hatred towards the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), these negative thoughts may provide a living environment for the communist evil spirits, and prolong their existence. Therefore, during cultivation, we should pay attention to removing the communist influence in our thoughts.
It is dangerous for people to carry communist evil spirits, such as fighting, resentment, stubbornness, self-righteousness, and looking outward during conflicts. These types of pollution should be cleansed quickly. I strongly recommend reading the books, “The Devil Is Dominating Our World” and “Disintegrating Party Culture” to eliminate the communist evil spirits.
