Practitioners Should Completely Eliminate the Root Attachment: "Selfishness"

2010-04-19

Things I can do, I demand others do as well. Things I can't do, I still demand others do. My thought was that it was for the benefit of others. I was convinced I was leading everyday people on the righteous path, and helping fellow practitioners to improve.

A Lesson Learned from Being Attached to Sentimentality to My Family

2010-04-19

I began to send money home without letting my husband know about it. My sister, also a Dafa practitioner, pointed out to me that I wasn't conforming to the Fa and that the money I sent home would cause misfortunes to our family. I didn't take her words seriously and even accused her of being selfish.

Be On Guard to the Attachment of Comfort and Ease

2010-04-16

Since this form of persecution is usually difficult for practitioners to detect, it is the most dangerous. The reason that many people practice cultivation on and off--or finally leave cultivation altogether--is that they fear losing their easy and comfortable life. The attachment to comfort and ease should be a danger signal for practitioners.

2010-04-16

a gentleman that appeared to be a faculty member or security guard asked me what I was doing. I simply clarified the truth to him and he said, "That sounds like a reasonable thing to do," and he went about his business. I said, "Thank you, sir," and continued distributing truth clarification materials on the campus.

Thoughts from a Student Reunion

2010-04-15

A genuine practitioner should not put oneself above Dafa at any time. If we do not study the Fa deeply and gain a clear understanding of the Fa, we will weigh pro's and con's with an everyday person's mentality when doing Dafa work or encountering something.

Follow Teacher's Words and Return Home with Him

2010-04-15

I have been explaining the facts about Falun Gong and persuading people to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations for several years. I have learned from experience that we can only save people when we study the Fa well, and have a compassionate heart. As long as we focus on the Fa, everything is done by Teacher.

Insights Gained on the Path of Cultivation

2010-04-14

If we hadn't gone that day and interacted with so many Chinese tourists, what a great loss it would have been! We really must treasure every day and the chances we get to save sentient beings. These chances have taken countless years to come into being--we must not miss them!

Truth-Clarification by Phone is Powerful

2010-04-14

There was even a policeman among them. He quit the CCP with his real name. At the end, I told them to remember, "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." They said to me, " Falun Dafa is good! Falun Dafa is good! Down with the Chinese Communist Party!" When I ended that call, tears of joy poured from my eyes.

Family Issues Were a Window into My Cultivation State

2010-04-13

Since I didn't cultivate well, my energy field was not pure. I should really look within. As I was doing the sitting meditation, I realized that if the things that my husband said bothered me so much all these years, it was because I had certain attachments that needed to be eliminated.

Some Human Mentalities That Can Affect Coordinators' Righteous Thoughts

2010-04-13

Coordinators and other practitioners should always look at themselves, discover and relinquish human attachments, and strengthen their righteous thoughts. Only then can we stay with the Fa and enjoy the "greatest assurance."

Learning to Look Inward

2010-04-12

I began to think, "He does not understand the procedure, used an incompatible network card and insisted a loophole existed in the group..." "I was right to begin with." I felt a little uneasy with the thought. Why did I always look for his fault, Master asked us to look inward, so did I really have nothing wrong myself?

One Must Look Inward When Encountering Tribulations

2010-04-12

I just wanted to remind practitioners that even if you did not encounter the same problems, please still handle everything with righteous thoughts. Anything that happens to us is a test of our determination in Dafa, and is an indication of whether we truly believe we have reached the standard after all these years of cultivation. If we truly believe in Master and Dafa, then we should believe in ourselves and not let any superficial phenomenon sway us.

On the Danger of Improper Relationships

2010-04-09

It is hard to avoid having a human mindset, even for cultivators, especially when it comes to relationships between men and women. Sometimes, even when it's inappropriate, a subtle favourable impression can be developed between a man and a woman if one doesn't pay attention to it.
