Today, I had a few thoughts after reading the eighth lecture of Zhuan Falun, “Whoever Practices Cultivation Will Attain Gong.”
Human society is a special dimension created by the great enlightened beings for people in order to allow them to “return to their true, original selves.” That is to say, the original purpose of creating human beings was to enable their Primordial Spirits to return to their original places. However, some enlightened beings who came to this dimension to save people found humans’ Primordial Spirits were difficult to save, but their Assistant Primordial Spirits were easy to save. Therefore, they began to save humans’ Assistant Primordial Spirits. I realized that when the enlightened beings first began to save humans’ Assistant Primordial Spirits, all beings in the universe had already deviated from the nature of universe “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.” This is because they violated their initial reasoning of creating the human society. Even more importantly, as a truly great enlightened being who needed to attain “the righteous Enlightenment of selflessness and altruism,” he could not decide to save someone just because he is easy to save, and decide not to save someone else because he is difficult to save. This deviated old notion is also reflected in some of our current Fa-rectification activities. For example, sometimes we may not be willing to clarify truth to a person who has very strong preconceived notions, but we are willing to tell truth to those persons who are easily swayed. Moreover, some disciples like to do some comparatively simpler jobs, but do not do what Dafa needs them to do. In fact, they all are hampered by the principles of the old cosmos.
This is a bit of my personal understanding. If it contains anything inappropriate, please kindly point it out to me so I can correct it.
