(Clearwisdom.net) Recently, I found that some practitioners were studying the Fa with the mentality of wanting to enlighten to the principles of higher level in the Fa. Consequently, their understanding often went awry. As a matter of fact, it was studying the Fa with the attachment of pursuit while one was trying to enlighten to something in Dafa. A practitioner's thought karma and demons in other dimensions will take advantage of this attachment to create interferences that will encourage the practitioner to over-emphasize self-satisfaction and to think that he or she really does enlighten to some profound principles in the Fa. However, when practitioners truly enlighten to the principles in Dafa, their enlightenment can only be manifested at their corresponding xinxing realm with their words and action. Practitioner's enlightenment is not just a superficial understanding driven by the competitive mentality lurking in his or her sub-consciousness.

Actually when a practitioner studies the Fa with the mentality of pursuit, that practitioner is already treating Dafa as an everyday person's knowledge to discuss and study. In the process, when the competitive mentality and strong self-awareness of that practitioner naturally shows, how could the principles of Dafa at different levels be unfolded to him or her? On the contrary, when we are in front of the ultimate Great Fa of the cosmos that creates everything in the cosmos and read the Fa only with piety and respect, then the principles of Dafa will naturally unfold to us and "gain things naturally without pursuing them" ("Seeking Discipleship with Teacher" from Essentials For Further Advancement).
