A working group for making Dafa information materials is made up of many Dafa disciples. It is a unit of our Fa-rectification disciples rectifying the Fa in the human world. Collectively, it is a big particle, a bigger life formed by us all. We should treat the working group the same as we treat our own lives.
We have our individual lives. But we are also a part of an integrated life. Therefore, from the perspective of the whole working group, we should not separate ourselves completely from the other Dafa disciples. The relationship among us is just like the relationship of our feet and hands, collaborating with each other and inseparable. When we are not harmonious with each other, when a fellow practitioner has some problem with his xinxing, we should not just regard it as a personal problem of his own. A cell’s thought reflects a person’s thought. Everyday people also have the concept of hologram that a portion of a body carries full message of the whole body. From the perspective of the Fa, we know that every bodily cell carries the thoughts that come from our brain. Then, from this viewpoint, every Dafa disciple is not a separate entity but is interrelated with the other Dafa disciples. If someone encounters a problem, the others who are also in the same situation have the same problem too. So, when we see others’ shortcomings, it means that we ourselves have the same problem. In other words, what we see in others is a reflection of our self.
In the past, I was unable to search inward when confronted with a problem. Instead, I would look externally to find the root cause by blaming the other person, “He has such strong attachments and I do not have any.” But now, I am able to find the root of conflicts within. I found that I was also part of all the problems faced by the practitioners.
Having been enlightened on this point, whenever I found that fellow practitioners had bad thoughts, I would calm my mind and examine my thoughts. Then I would join the fellow practitioners in sending forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the bad thoughts and demonic interference. We rooted them out from our mind and thought they were to die. We are one body. The body also has a brain that transmits the messages from the universe to this physical realm, and together, all our bodies amount to every particle’s thoughts.
It is the same thing when we see that a machine that we use in our Dafa work is broken down. In the Fa-rectification process, it is integrated with us. Its life is also part of our whole lives. The failure of machine may, at the same time, reflect the impurity of our innermost being. Thus, we should sit down along with the machine and look inward to rectify the bad things in our lives together. In the meanwhile, we should eliminate interferences coming from outside and damages caused by the evil.
When Fa-rectification disciples are able to integrate and form one body, we will be indestructible. When all the Dafa disciples of the world dissolve into the Fa as a whole, we will be all-conquering.
