Only after Letting Go of Human Attachments Can We Save the World's People

(Clearwisdom.net)

Teacher published the article "Let Go of Human Attachments and Save the World's People" on September 1, 2004. While clarifying the truth to the world's people, I have understood that only after one can let go of human attachments, can one save the world's people.

A fellow practitioner's younger brother was found to be in the later stages of esophagus cancer, with no way to cure it. This fellow practitioner was very worried, and he advised his brother to practice Falun Gong. However, even at this point, the younger brother still did not agree to start practicing.

After returning home, this practitioner's heart was very unsteady, and he often called to ask about the state of the illness. The practitioner asked other family members to advise his brother to practice Falun Gong, but his brother still would not practice. Other practitioners all saw that this practitioner's affection and human attachments were heavy, and that is what obstructed his brother from practicing.

After that practitioner listened to everyone's understandings, he looked inward, and gradually let go of affection, and human attachments.

A few days ago, that practitioner's younger brother's family members called the practitioner, and said that the state of illness had worsened. The practitioner arranged to go see him. Before he left, everybody reminded him not to ask anything from his brother, but to just tell him to repeat, "Falun Dafa is good," and not to tell his brother to practice Falun Gong at first.

What happened was completely unexpected. The practitioner's brother, on his own initiative, wanted to practice Falun Gong. He, along with other fellow practitioners together, sent forth righteous thoughts (Of course, the righteous thoughts from a new practitioner do not have as much might, but it does indicate his heart of wanting to practice). Presently, his health has clearly become better.

It is true that only after one can let go of human attachments can one save the world's people.
