[PureInsight.org] I just read
an article about safety by a fellow practitioner on the website. I,
too, have some personal thoughts and would like to share with other
practitioners.
First, I like to clarify what is being considered a safety issue.
During today's Fa-rectification cultivation, being safe means not being
persecuted by the evil doers. What is persecution by the evil
doers then? There are two forms: the evil forces direct the evil doers
to harass or kidnap practitioners and the other is through the forms of
sickness karma to harm us physically.
Normally, every practitioner is protected by Master and the guardian
gods. Why, then, should persecution happen? The evil forces find an
excuse, that is why. What kind of excuse? We have either omission(s) or
severe attachment(s) that we have not let go.
For example, failing to rectify our xinxing is the cause of being persecuted. If we work on our xinxing,
let go of our attachments and rectify ourselves, the evil forces will
not be able to find an excuse. When we display righteous thoughts and
righteous actions, Master will take care of us and the evil forces will
not dare touch us. For that particular reason, the safety issue
is really just a xinxing issue.
On the surface, we should take necessary measures to ensure our own
safety. Because we are cultivators, we definitely have omissions and
areas of inadequacy. Even though we diligently cultivate ourselves, we
may still overlook our loopholes. If we take necessary precautions,
personally speaking, I believe that we can make up for little loopholes
but they will be useless for big loopholes.
The reason that persecution happens under the evil forces' control is
caused by your big loopholes, which the evil forces can see very
clearly from a different dimension. If they catch you, they can
persecute you, even though the ordinary people cannot see it and you
have taken every precaution. The evil forces can control the evil doers
to do you harm or let illness karma hurt you directly.
Some practitioners, in particular, have severe attachment to fear. They
hide at home and rarely do the three things. They believe that this way
will ensure their safety. Recently, many practitioners displayed severe
sickness karma and lost their lives. In reality, this is due to
the fact that the evil forces got hold of their loopholes of fear and
attacked them directly. Thus, in order to ensure safety, we must get
rid of the root cause and start to work on our xinxing.
Some practitioners have righteous thoughts and clarify the truth
door–to-door and help people quit the party and its affiliated
organizations. When we look at it from the standpoint of ordinary
people, that is absolutely not safe. But they not only save sentient
beings but also keep themselves very safe. On the contrary, other
practitioners act very sheepishly, the minute they walk out of their
houses, they look cautiously from left to right and are afraid of being
followed. What a different scenario that is!
Does that mean whenever we have a big loophole, we will definitely be persecuted? Not necessarily.
Here we need to have clear understanding about something. Let us compare our own strength with that of the evil forces.
Ourselves: On the surface we are a cultivator with a godly side in a
different dimension, high level, many supernormal capabilities and very
powerful.
The evil forces: they are the evil doers superficially, but lowly evil
lives take control of the evil doers from a different dimension.
In this dimension, the evil doers are stronger than we, but in a
different dimension, we are far more powerful than the evil doers. The
determining factors are all in a different dimension. Putting
everything together, we are far superior to the evil forces. The
evil forces should be afraid of us and not the other way around.
If so, how come the evil forces can persecute us? The reason is that we
have considered ourselves to be human beings. Our eyes cannot see
other dimensions, therefore, we only see what is in this dimension
where the evil doers are stronger than we are. As a result, we have
fear in our hearts. In reality, this also reflects our lack of trust in
Master and our disbelief that we have our godly sides and that the evil
doers are actually acting under the manipulation of evil forces in a
different dimension.
When we think the persecution is done by human beings toward other
human beings, without a doubt, we will lose the battle. When we
believe our Master and recognize that we are gods, this very notion
will then mobilize our supernormal capabilities to eliminate the evil
forces.
The key is to trust our Master and the Fa. The issue between us and the
evil forces is not whether we will be persecuted but an issue of
eliminating them or being eliminated.
Dafa practitioners, we all should be godlike and think of being a
magnificent god every minute. If we can do that, we will be invincible.
Let's use our capabilities to our hearts' desire, eliminate the evil
forces, save sentient beings and fulfill our prehistoric wishes.
