(Minghui.org) I went to a practitioner’s home and cooperated on a project to send out truth-clarification letters. When I left, the practitioner reminded me, “Please send forth righteous thoughts on your way back home, and I will also do so from here, just like we always send forth righteous thoughts on our way to clarify the truth and distribute truth-clarification materials.” On the way back, I did so to eliminate all evil factors in other dimensions that prevent local Dafa disciples from forming one body and using truth-clarification letters to save sentient beings.
At the practitioner’s home, some practitioners drafted letters to the local judicial system and government officials, some revised and finalized the letters, some printed the letters, some addressed the envelopes, and some mailed the letters. All the practitioners there did their best to awaken people to the truth, and we effectively dissolved the evil factors. The truth-clarification letters played an effective role. Some officials from the judicial system ended up doing good deeds. They became inactive while handling cases against Dafa practitioners and did not dispatch the police. Some secretly protected Dafa practitioners. Some voluntarily wanted to withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations.
It is my understanding that at the final stage of our cultivation, Dafa disciples should use the divine power bestowed by Master Li (Dafa’s founder) to send forth righteous thoughts and dissolve any interference in other dimensions while improving our xinxing at the same time.
I once felt a substance on top of my head that made me sleepy while studying the Fa. I immediately sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate all the dark minions, rotten demons, and evil factors in other dimensions, including the evil matter over my head. In less than a minute, I no longer felt sleepy, and I finished studying a chapter of Zhuan Falun with a clear mind.
Another time, my stomach suddenly hurt a few minutes after I started doing the exercises one morning. I was about to stop and go to the bathroom, but suddenly realized this was interference from the old forces. The old forces were trying to prevent me from practicing the exercises and participating in sending forth righteous thoughts at the global set time. I knew the pain was an illusion and I must completely deny the old force’s arrangement. So I sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate all evil factors in other dimensions that interfered with my practicing the exercises. Amazingly the pain was gone within just seconds. I finished practicing the one-hour exercise and participated in the global sending forth righteous thoughts in time. I felt very relaxed.
A fellow practitioner went to the police station to request that they return Master’s photo and Dafa books. I planned to send forth righteous thoughts in cooperation. Immediately after I sat down, a person collecting used mobile phones suddenly came in, shouting through a loud speaker. It was clearly interference from the old forces. I immediately targeted this interference first. The sound became quieter within a few seconds and was completely muted after a minute.
One night I clarified the truth to a young couple and gave them truth-clarification materials and a Dafa amulet. I turned around to leave, but suddenly saw a police vehicle sitting at a red traffic light, heading towards me. I thought about whether I should turn around and go in the opposite direction; then I soon realized this was fear. I should act as a true Dafa disciple with righteous thoughts and actions. I kept walking straight toward the police car. The traffic light turned green, and the police car quickly drove away.
I once clarified the truth to a young man sitting next to me on the bus. He did not object to it at first. Then he suddenly stood up and said loudly, “I am a policeman.” Everyone on the bus looked our way. I was not afraid at all and told him calmly with compassion, “Oh, is that so? The police also came to be saved.” He immediately withdrew his aggressive tone and became kind. Eventually, he understood the truth and sincerely thanked me.
A fellow practitioner once saw a young man tearing up truth-clarification posters. The man saw the practitioner and immediately walked away. The practitioner chased him while sending forth righteous thoughts, “Stop! Why are you tearing up Falun Dafa posters? Do you know they are for saving people?” The young man said, “I am from the community committee office, and the upper-level authorities told us to do this.” The practitioner told him, “You should not do bad things even if the upper-level authorities tell you to. It is not good for you at all if you damage a poster meant to save people. Please don’t do this stupid thing anymore.” The man got on an electric bike and sped away.
A young female practitioner, over 20, was arrested for clarifying the truth. She did not cooperate with the police and refused to answer any questions at all. After she refused to sign a fabricated statement prepared by the police, four police officers grabbed her arm to force her to sign. The practitioner started sending forth righteous thoughts and was still. The police, with all their force, could not press her hand to the paper, and they became exhausted. One police officer raised his fist to beat her. She said, “It is against the law to beat someone.” All four of the officers immediately let go of her, as if they had been electrocuted and dared not touch her again.
This practitioner was illegally detained at a detention center for two weeks. Most of the prisoners there were very difficult to manage. The prison guard said with admiration, “Falun Gong practitioners are really good people. You should tell the prisoners how to also be good people and follow the rules.”
On the day this practitioner was being released, a prison guard asked her to sign a document. She refused, “I cannot sign it since I did not commit any crime. I will sue you as soon as I get out.” The police begged, “Please don’t sue us. We did not arrest you.” They then asked the practitioner’s brother to sign. But the practitioner stopped her brother. In the end, the practitioner and her family did not sign anything and went home righteously.
Master told us:
“Everyone needs to recognize the importance of sending righteous thoughts.” (“Fa Teaching Given at the 2002 Conference in Washington, D.C.” Collected Teachings Given Around the World, Volume II)
We should send forth righteous thoughts more often. It will help us to be in control and to have the wisdom to dissolve the tribulations with ease, regardless of whatever emergencies we face. It will help us to be clear and comprehensive while clarifying the truth face to face, and truly wake up the goodness in that person. This is the compassionate power of the Buddha Fa.
If we sent forth righteous thoughts before group Fa-study instead of talking about everyday people’s topics, we would be more focused on studying the Fa with a calm mind and improve our xinxing as a whole. If we could send forth righteous thoughts before we point out another practitioner’s omissions, we would speak with compassion and avoid imposing our ideas on others. Meanwhile, the other practitioner could easily feel our pure energy and sincere intention for them, and accept it with a heart full of gratitude.
Above is my personal understanding. Please kindly point out if anything is not in line with the Fa.
