Thoughts on Not Participating in Overseas Phone Calling Projects in China

(Minghui.org) I read the article, “Practitioners in China, Please Do Not Participate in Overseas Phone Calling Projects”. I was surprised to see some sentences were highlighted in red. I read the article three times and I’d like to share my thoughts. 

The software Mumble was mentioned and Minghui previously told us it should not be used in China. In the article, “Practitioners in Mainland China, Please Stop Online Fa Study (With a Comment from Master),” Master Li (Dafa’s founder) said in his comment, “These software programs cannot be used among practitioners.” The software programs include Mumble. 

I hope we can all reflect on this: We are Falun Dafa disciples, but have we listened to what Master said and followed what Master said? In the article the author wrote, “Cultivation is serious and any human notion can hinder our cultivation path. No matter how much or how clearly we see, we only know part of the picture. Only Master knows everything.” 

We must let go of our egos and unconditionally follow Master’s words. 

My understanding is that, by exposing this incident Minghui is trying to wake up those who are involved so that practitioners in China will stop participating in this project. If the article hadn’t been published some practitioners may have continued with excuses like: “Minghui does not know this.” Those practitioners inside China who are involved in the phone call project should stop. 

The article also mentioned online sharing across regions and “large-scale coordination.” None of this is consistent with Master’s lectures on safety measures for Falun Dafa practitioners in China. During these years of persecution, coordinators in China have been persecuted one after another. There have been too many lessons regarding this and it’s time to stop. 

Master said, “Minghui.org provides Dafa disciples with a forum for sharing and exchanging ideas, while also offering non-practitioners a window into our world. So you can share whatever ideas you have through the site. But coordinating things on a large scale is not something you should be doing [in China] at this time. You really need to be mindful of everyone’s safety.” (“2018 Fa Teaching Given in Washington, D.C.,” Collected Fa Teachings, Vol. XV)

If these projects cause practitioners safety issues, and some lost their lives while others stopped practicing, then who is responsible for this? Someone said, “We will continue doing this no matter who says to stop.” Those who said this should be exposed. Is this a xinxing problem or are these individuals questionable? Are their attachments so strong that they do not realize they are being taken advantage of by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party)?

These are some of my understandings. We may not know the complicated situation in other dimensions or Master’s arrangements. Because further discussions are related to safety issues regarding practitioners inside China, I do not want to talk about the details, nor do I want to criticize certain practitioners. I sincerely hope we can all examine ourselves and improve and not complain about each other. By opposing the old forces’ arrangements and eliminating the evil, we can improve through this issue and do better on the cultivation journey. 

Master is looking after Minghui.org and this is a significant article. I hope we can let go of our human attachments and notions and look at this with righteous thoughts. 

These are my personal understandings. Please point out anything I’ve said that is inconsistent with Dafa’s teachings.
