Recently, I noticed that several practitioners have became addicted to Internet games. They don't have time to think about the things that Dafa practitioners should be doing, not to mention, how to improve. Every day, they will turn on their cell phones to continue playing games right after getting off the Internet, even when they are eating or on their way to work.
After playing the games for a long time, some practitioners develop bad tempers while others become introverted and don't speak much. When Teacher's new articles are published, they just quickly read through them. They don't read practitioners' experience-sharing articles on the Minghui/Clearwisdom website. When fellow practitioners advise them to give up playing the games, they would either push the issue aside by saying, "I know it's not right, but for now, I can't stop it all at once," or use harsh words to refuse communication.
Some of the games are about killing, starting fires, alchemy cultivation, evil curses, levels of cultivation, or getting married and having children. To accept the things in the games is a way to gratify the desires they can't achieve in real life. They are not based on the Fa. To put it more seriously, haven't these practitioners already taken a side way and are on an evil path?
Even with everyday people, they often suffer from mental disorders and incur bad things if they are addicted to Internet games. For practitioners who are addicted to playing Internet games, they sometimes lose all rationality and destroy things, refuse to listen to advice, and lose their temper when others interrupt them. My fellow practitioners, please don't give up cultivation after you have obtained the Fa.
I feel that Master has been compassionately giving chances for these practitioners. No matter what your mission is, please use your computer skills in truth-clarification and saving sentient beings. When you are no longer attached to the Internet games, the evil will be destroyed and everyday people who are also addicted to Internet games will have the strength to leave their computers and see the truth.
