[PureInsight.org] Today I saw a fellow Falun Dafa practitioner falling asleep while we were studying the Fa together. Normally I would wake him up politely and then resume studying the Fa. But today I had a different understanding on this issue. Any interference with a Dafa practitioner's Fa study is the most serious type of interference, because it directly affects a series of issues, including the practitioner's improvement in cultivation and the quality of his Dafa work. Therefore, besides waking him up, this time I also immediately started to send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate all the evils in other dimensions which had been interfering with his Fa study. The results were very good. In my humble understanding, it would be very helpful for us to improve as one body if more practitioners come to realize what we need to do in this type of situation. Teacher has said:
The next person's things are your things1, and your things are his things.
(From "Teaching the Fa at the Washington, D.C. Fa Conference")
1The Chinese word translated here as "things" is very broad, and it can also mean "issue," "business," "problem," "task," "affair," "difficulty," and so on.
