I always talk about standing on the point of view of Dafa for every single thought in daily life. But human concepts and the attachment of fear all turn up at critical moments. In the midst of a tribulation, when feeling that my body couldn’t endure it anymore, the first thing that arose in my mind was not Dafa, but a mixture of thoughts, which of course included the attachment of fear, about how to escape the tribulation. This notion caused me to waver during the tribulation. Very bad notions appeared in my mind such as “Is it that Master is not looking after me after all?” After it was over, I just felt very bad but I didn’t realize anything more than that. I only realized the root cause of my problem after talking with a fellow practitioner on the phone. Suddenly I realized that although I always talked about how everything I am is created by Dafa and I must act according to the principles of Dafa unconditionally, in reality I did not meet the requirement of “Following [the Fa] in everything, Compliance is cultivation.” (From “Solid Cultivation” in Hong Yin)
I quietly reflected on how heavily Dafa weighs in my heart. If it is not one hundred percent of my heart, then what else is occupying the rest? After realizing this essential point, I was suddenly enlightened, as if a door had been opened in front of me. I told myself that I must let Dafa occupy one hundred percent of my awareness. Everything of mine must be consistent with Dafa even when I have fallen into whatever tribulation. Even when a terrible calamity strikes, I must only want Dafa. Every thought and every idea of mine must be based on Dafa.
