Reaching the Divine State of Truly Rectifying the Fa as One Body By Ding Ping from China
(Clearwisdom.net) After reading Teacher's "Teaching the Fa at the
2002 Experience Sharing Conference in Philadelphia, U.S.A.," my heart was
quite moved, and I gained a much deeper understanding of the importance of
reaching the divine state of truly rectifying the Fa as one body.
Our still having attachments is no excuse for the evil's continuing
existence. However, when the old forces hold on to the evil under the pretext
that we still have attachments as a whole, this means that we must eliminate
those attachments. As soon as we truly understand that we should be true Fa-rectification
gods, our righteous thoughts will have the power to topple mountains and
overturn seas.
We always say that we should deny the arrangements by the old forces and walk
the path arranged by Teacher. However, when handling important issues, we
frequently unknowingly allow the old forces to interfere with us. When we, as a
whole, are in an everyday person's state concerning important issues, we indeed
have provided the old forces with a pretext for their continuous tests. It is
already the last step of the last stage of the Fa-Rectification. I realized that
the current progress of Fa-Rectification requires us to as one body become true
Fa-Rectification gods.
How can we become true Fa-rectification gods? In my opinion, we should follow
Teacher's Fa to "fundamentally change its conventional thinking."
("Lunyu") Our righteous thoughts and righteous actions are creating
history. In the long course of our lives, we have been accustomed to thinking in
the way of everyday people, which makes every step of our journey very difficult
for us to take. In the old forces' destructive examination, our everyday
people's mentalities have been strengthened, which sometimes makes us unable to
meet the standard of Fa-rectification as a whole in handling important issues.
We still have attachments as a whole. The old forces have been using this fact
to prolong the existence of the evil again and again.
If we lay our hopes on the support of Dafa from everyday people, we have not
treated Dafa seriously and respectfully. When we put ourselves, consciously or
unconsciously, in the position of guests instead of hosts, our power would be of
the same level as everyday people. The old forces insist on arranging the course
of Fa-rectification and the paths of Dafa practitioners' cultivation, because
they have put themselves in the position of the leading role and Teacher,
together with Dafa practitioners, in a minor role. Only when all of us have paid
enough attention to fundamentally changing our own conventional thinking in
handling important issues, can we reach the state of being genuine Fa-rectification
gods.
To reach the state of being true Fa-rectification gods, we must always keep
our mind clear and main consciousness strong, so that we can distinguish our
original selves from our postnatal thinking as well as from the interference and
sabotage caused by the old forces. In doing this, we will leave no gaps for the
old forces to take advantage of. Otherwise, the old forces will not only create
false impressions before us, but also, under the pretext of our attachments, let
the evil linger on.
To walk the path arranged by Teacher, we should thoroughly deny the
arrangements by the old forces and play the leading role in assisting Teacher to
rectify the Fa. We should break with the evil's arrangements using our righteous
thoughts and actions as a whole, eradicate the evil, and save all sentient
beings.
