After reading Teacher's new article “Let Go of Human Attachments and Save the World’s People” lots of practitioners became aware of the urgency of time and acted much more diligently. Nevertheless there are still a lot of practitioners who still treat the three things Master has mentioned as accomplishing tasks, as if you can relax for a bit once you have finished the three things. Usually they would behave very diligently when studying the Fa1, sending forth righteous thoughts and clarifying the truth yet they will be lax the rest of the time. It’s as if the rest of the time is not time for “clarifying the truth”. In fact upholding the true aspects of Falun Gong and improving ones character is a constant requirement.
I think we shouldn’t treat the three things like tasks, but we should comprise it into every single moment, every single thought and every single thing we do. Only in this way can we fully utilise the time that we have, remove our attachments and be able to accomplish our tasks in the most efficient manner. It is just like what Teacher said in Teaching the Fa at the 2003 Atlanta Fa Conference:
“Also, with those people that you run into by chance, who you run into in daily life, and the people you run into at work, you should all clarify the truth to them. Even when in your daily life you pass by people so quickly that you don’t have a chance to talk to them, you should still leave them with your compassion and kindness. Don’t lose those who should be saved, especially those with predestined connections.”
This is what I have personally enlightened to, fellow practitioners please point out anything inappropriate.
