Practitioners in China: Let's Seize the Time to Save More People

Sept. 17, 2009 |   By a Falun Dafa practitioner in China

(Clearwisdom.net) After reading Teacher's most recent lecture I feel deep regret for not cultivating more diligently. I finally came to realize the immensity of the losses that practitioners who hold tightly to their attachments, or who can't let go of fundamental attachments, incur in terms of the celestial body they correspond to. It is just like Teacher said:

"You have unwittingly incurred many losses that are hard to recover. Past lessons should have made you more mature. The only way to prevent the old, evil forces from taking advantage of the gaps in your mind is to make good use of your time to study the Fa." ("Towards Consummation" from Essentials for Further Advancement II)

Let us not to be moved by whatever situation we run into. Let us look within and truly cultivate ourselves well.

Mainland China practitioners are the main body, tasked with clearing the poison that fills many Mainland Chinese people's minds. Therefore, we should make use of everything we can think of to clarify the facts about Falun Gong on a large scale. Of course, we should do it rationally and conscientiously.

I must admit that somehow I can't shake the thought that overseas practitioners seize the time better and contribute more than practitioners in China. My heart tells me that we, Mainland Chinese practitioners, have not put in as much effort or worked as hard as overseas practitioners.

I have met up with practitioners that tell people the facts about Falun Gong only every few days, every few weeks, or even every few months. While some practitioners lack of motivation to do truth-clarification it is not necessarily due to fear, it is certainly because we aren't diligent in our Fa study and have slacked off.

Many times when reading Minghui/Clearwisdom articles, I have noticed that overseas practitioners endure great hardships when it comes to producing informatinal materials. And it seems that there are not just a few but a great number of practitioners that put a lot of effort into exposing the persecution and explaining the facts about Falun Gong. Then I see practitioners in my area that spend little or no time in clearing up misconceptions about Falun Gong. The majority are tired because they are busy with household chores, busy at work, or face many conflicts.

Those who feel that they have done enough when it comes to clarifying the truth have an attachment, because Teacher told us clearly that we have not done enough. I think that we practitioners in China lack compassion. We don't think about sentient beings being destroyed because of our inaction.

We should immediately begin telling people the facts on a large scale. We especially should distribute materials regarding the staged "self-immolation" incident and "April 25." We should hand out fliers that tell about these events, because Teacher has told us that we need to explain the true situation at a fundamental level.

Let's seize the time and use it most effectively as one body to do the three-things well.
