Cultivation Diary: We Need to Clarify the Facts From Our Heart

By Jin Gangxiao

PureInsight | July 7, 2008

[PureInsight.org] I just
realized that when someone does not listen to my truth-clarification, I
should not be disturbed. My attitude and patience, as well as the
quality of my truth-clarification, should remain unchanged. Although I
may have the attachment of fear or of worrying that my cultivation
state is not good enough, attachments should not affect my
truth-clarification.



In everything that I come across, some of my attachments get exposed
and this is also an opportunity for me to improve. Nonetheless, this
does not mean that I should hold off doing truth-clarification until my
cultivation gets better. Regardless of what attachments I have, I
should continue doing the things that I am supposed to do. When
concentrating on clarifying the facts, other things do not distract me.
In this way, I am altruistic and not concerned about myself. Although
sometimes I may feel hesitant, how can I choose to give up telling
people the truth about Dafa? No, I cannot give up so easily. I should
not be disturbed by anything. Those thoughts do not belong to me, and
if I do not acknowledge them, they should disappear. I just remind
myself that as a practitioner I should do things to save sentient
beings.



When clarifying the facts from my heart, as soon as I begin to speak,
those bad thoughts are eliminated immediately. Sometimes I question
myself, what if this person would report me to the police? However,
that thought will not stop me from clarifying the truth to him. When
that person looks nervous, I would speak to him with smile. What if I
cannot think where to begin? Then I might start by talking about the
weather. What if I find there are too many people around and it is not
convenient to talk? Then I would hand out truth-clarification
materials. What if I didn't explain things clearly when talking? Then I
would talk more later. What if there wasn't enough time to talk in
depth? Then I would give out a truth-clarification card and tell that
person that reciting the words on the card - "Falun Dafa is good" -
will keep him away from danger. What if someone does not want to listen
to me? I will continue talking with patience. What if he did not want
to accept my truth-clarification material? Then I would think maybe he
will accept it next time. What if he shows no interest or gets angry? I
would not be bothered since I only have compassion for him.



As I continued to talk to more and more people, I became more and more
concentrated and I felt that truth-clarification is a happy and natural
thing do to. My experience is that we should keep up clarifying the
truth. If we act this way, the power of Dafa will help spread the truth
to everyone.
