(Minghui.org) Fear is something of material existence, and it is formed postnatally. But during the movement to prosecute Jiang Zemin, some practitioners have been fearful of losing their stable cultivation environment. Some have been fearful of being persecuted or of burdening their family members.

Because of fear, some have taken a bystander approach, observing and waiting on the sidelines. Some have even said things like, “Exposed rafters are the first to rot.”

Moreover, there are some practitioners who do not admit their attachment to fear, and even use Master's Fa to cover up their attachment. They say that the old forces no longer find the demon Jiang of any importance and have already gotten rid of him. So why is there still a need to sue him?

There were even people who said that the demon Jiang has already died over a hundred times, so what else are we fighting him for?

In fact, these are all attempts to cover up their own attachment to fear. They fear this and that, but ultimately what they are really afraid of is losing that little advantage they have in their human lives. My fellow practitioners, why aren't you afraid of failing to save the sentient beings in your universe? Why aren't you afraid of failing to fulfill your prehistoric vows? Why aren't you afraid of breaching your contract? Do you truly have faith in Master and the Fa?

Dafa practitioners have standards to follow, and the standards are very strict. Every Dafa practitioner is responsible for a specific region of the universe. Do you know that you are neglecting your duty? The lawsuits against Jiang reflect a change in the cosmic climate, and these changes need to be carried out by people.

As cultivators, we all have had attachments to fear. If we think about it, during our cultivation journey, fear is like a wall that will block us at times, preventing us from moving forward.

When we first began distributing truth-clarification materials, fear made our mouths turn dry, our throats burn, and our legs turn to jelly. We could only distribute a handful of flyers during our first attempt. But with persistence in distributing flyers and with solid cultivation, we gradually eliminated our attachments to fear. Thereafter, we could distribute tens and even hundreds of flyers without a problem. We no longer panicked when meeting people, and we could save sentient beings with wisdom and a rational mind.

When we first clarified the truth to people on a face to face basis, fear rendered us unable to speak in front of strangers. And even if we could speak to strangers, our minds were blank, and we did not know what to say. However, by continuing to clarify the truth and eliminate our attachments to fear, we were able to clarify the truth more articulately, and the wisdom came easily.

Attachments are removed layer by layer, and the closer they are to the surface level, the worse they appear. However, at the same time, they also get weaker.

Those practitioners participating in suing Jiang are also overcoming their attachment to fear in the process, and they have taken a major step forward.

Recall that at the start of the persecution in 1999, evil blanketed the sky and the earth. Our lives were in constant peril. Yet to stop the persecution, Dafa disciples were able to let go of their attachment to life and death, to step forward, and to go to Beijing to validate the Fa.

The Fa-rectification has progressed to today, and the evil has been eliminated to the point that only a scattered few remain. They can no longer persecute on a large scale, and even if they do persecute some, they are very weak and target only our attachments.

For example, in a city in Northeast China, two practitioners went one morning to the post office to mail their lawsuits. However, because their states of mind were not steadfast, they were arrested by plainclothes policemen and detained for seven days before being released.

Two hours later, on the same day and at the same place, two other practitioners went to mail their lawsuits to sue Jiang. These two practitioners had strong righteous thoughts, and even though they saw the plainclothes policemen, they gave no further concern about the policemen. They successfully mailed their lawsuits and walked respectably out of the post office without being harassed.

As Dafa practitioners, we initially had a godly fearlessness to descend to the human world and assist Master in rectifying the Fa. That was because we did not have this material substance called fear. Today, Master has already helped us pave a path to godhood. We must similarly have one hundred percent faith in Master, and we cannot take our attachments to fear with us to the heavens. We must eliminate them while in this human realm. Thus, our participation in the movement to prosecute Jiang is a test of our faith in Master and the Fa.

The movement to prosecute Jiang is for clarifying the truth, eliminating the evil, saving sentient beings, and ending this 16-year persecution. From the Fa, we know that when Master's immense force of Fa-rectification arrives, only the good will be kept, and the bad will be eliminated. If before the immense force of Fa-rectification arrives, Dafa practitioners can stop the persecution through the movement to prosecute Jiang, people will recognize the evil nature of Jiang Zemin and the Chinese Communist Party. They will understand that Falun Dafa is good, and therefore be saved.

Think about it—so many sentient beings could be saved. And among the beings saved, there will be some that you were supposed to save. If you do not participate in suing Jiang, your sentient beings will be saved by others instead. Then as a future king or master of your universe, how would you be able to face your sentient beings, especially beings who had placed so much hope in you?

Master said:

“If a cultivator can let go of the thought of life and death under any circumstance, evil is sure to be afraid of him. If every student is able to do this, evil will of itself no longer exist.” (“Eliminating Your Last Attachment(s)” from Essentials for Further Advancement II)

If all Dafa practitioners can let go of their attachment to fear and to life and death, thereby elevating as one body, we can definitely bring the demon Jiang to history's court of justice, destroy the evil completely, and end this persecution.

We must genuinely achieve the objective of assisting Master in Fa-rectification and save even more sentient beings.

These are a few of my thoughts. Please point out any errors.
