突破各种人心  助师救众生

文:澳大利亚大法弟子

尊敬的师父好!

同修们好!

我将从三方面交流自己最近的修炼体会,不足之处请同修慈悲指正。

一、突破各种人心到中领馆街前徵签

我于二零一四年五月来到澳洲布里斯班后,就一直参与中国城和景点讲真相项目。二零二零年年初中共病毒在澳洲爆发后,因没有中国游客来澳洲,我也不用去景点了。同修们很快组织了在中领馆对面的街上做结束中共徵签。我刚开始都是和同修一起去,从来不敢想象我一个人能去徵签。通常在参加大法的活动时,我都是愿意打横幅,不喜欢发资料。原因是我觉得自己的英文不好,再加上性格内向。

有一天,我看到协调同修发出的通知,那个排班表上有一天是空着的,没有同修报名。

我想起师父说:很多西方人没有受中共邪党的毒害,那么对那个人来讲,也可能他会表现的淡漠,这个也没有关系。至于说《九评》,当前对人类而言就是救度世人重要的一步。下一步,也许很快世界上人人都得在要不要邪党的问题上表态,人人都得选择未来。” [1]

我感到了时间的紧迫, 疫情很凶猛,西方的众生也都在等着得救,我要突破各种人心走出去参与结束中共徵签项目,我果断的给协调同修发去消息说,我可以在那天去做徵签。

刚刚结束禁足的市中心街上人流很少,冷冷清清的。我刚开始一个人站在中领馆对面的街上,就开始在心里默念正法口诀,求师父加持有缘的众生来签名得救,过不了一会儿就有人来签名了。 

我在徵签过程中遇到很多感人的事例:有一次一位看起来很有身份的西人老先生走到我身边签名,手指了指对面的中领馆,他说了很多,我不是全能听明白,但是大概意思我懂,他说他知道很多关于中共干的坏事,并很关心的跟我说:你要注意安全。我说:我不怕,有神保护我。

时隔一年左右,有一天街对面跑过来一个人,一边过马路一边向我挥手,嘴里大声说着有神和你在一起,我一看正是去年见过的那位西人老先生。说来也巧就在我今天修改这篇修炼心得体会交流稿的中午,我再次见到了这位先生,他说了很多祝福的话,也说了很多遍感谢的话,他说祝福所有站在这里徵签的义工,神会保佑你们,神会永远和你们站在一起,感谢你们,你们在做一件非常伟大的事情。

还有一次,有一位西人走过来跟我说我很支持你们做的这件事,但是中共很强大,你们做不成什么的。我跟他说你相信神吗?他说信,我说中共干的坏事太多了,神会出手帮助结束中共的,当年苏联共产党也是很强大,谁能相信它一夜之间就解体啊?那人听后马上签了名。    

还经常有路过的西人说你们做的真棒!签名后要给钱的,拥抱的;也有的人不敢签,路过时默默的伸出大拇指致意。

徵签的过程也是 一个修炼提高的过程,有一段时间我经常想,出国后环境变宽松了,那我的怕心怎么去呢? 

接下来的那段时间,我就经常看见有中国人给我拍照。有一次,有个小伙子给我拍照后,我紧跟着他,也拍了他的照片,并告诉他:小伙子,如果你拍照帮我宣传退出邪党是好事,但是如果你用来做不好的事,这样对你不好。他看我也拍了他的照片后,表情有点不自在,他问我干嘛给他拍照,我说你拍我的照片,如果交给中国大使馆,我也可以把你的照片交给澳洲政府,这里是澳洲,信仰自由。我还给他讲了大法基本真相,后来他的语气变得和善并跟我说,他现在着急去上班,能不能把他的照片删掉?我说可以,但是你得把我的照片先删掉,他掏出手机把拍我的照片删掉了,我也删掉了他的照片。这件事发生后,我很在意有人拍我的照片,心里生出了怕心。

由于我有了这个怕心,这个不正的念才招来了以后的干扰。今年六月底的一个星期日,我记得那天我特意把我带的帽子使劲往下压了压,心想最好多盖住点脸,这样有人拍照也不知道我是谁了。那天还有一位同修和我一起徵签,后来那位同修有事先走了半小时。

同修走后有一位三十多岁的中国女士来到我跟前,质问我是不是中国人?我说:是啊,她就说:你不爱国。我说:我正因为爱国才站在这里,我帮人们了解中共的邪恶,爱国不等于爱党。

这位女士根本不听我说,并且在换不同的角度给我拍照和录音。我马上掏出手机给她也拍了照。她开始骂我,我也不理她,我试图给她讲真相,她嘴里一直在骂我,骂的过程中她一直在录像,期间她还推搡我,并把我的手机打掉在地上。

这位女士在半小时内过来骚扰了我三次,最后一次她抢了桌子上的大法资料就走,我冲上去从她手里把资料夺了回来,资料夺回来后我哭了,我觉得她真可怜,不了解真相带着盲目的仇恨来捣乱的,目地是吓唬我以后别来了。在此过程中我们已经通知了警察,这时警察局的电话来了,她听到后赶紧走了,后来西人同修帮忙去警察局报了案。

回家后我向内找,找到了自己的很多人心:譬如怕心、安逸心、对家人情的执着。修炼是严肃的,是我的人心不正才招来的麻烦。后来我加强了学法、发正念,继续坚持做结束中共的徵签项目。

随着我逐渐修去人心,我的正念也越来越强,怕心也没了,徵签时环境也随之改变,也没有中国人给我拍照了,我坦坦荡荡的站在街上徵签,我告诉自己即便没人签字,我站在这里就是在传播大法的美好正能量,应该都是金光闪闪的,因为我在做宇宙中最正的事情,我这个正念一出,马上感到身体变得高大无比。

二、多学法,救人的效果才会更好

师父说:其实,你作为大法弟子的责任全在那里了。救度众生这件事情不做,你就没有完成你大法弟子的责任,你的修炼就等于零,因为叫你当大法弟子不是为了你个人圆满,是身负重大使命的。”[2] 读到师父的这段法,我再次认识到救度众生的重要性。

由于澳州的疫情也开始扩散,有段时间禁足不能出门,我就在RTC上给中国大陆的众生打电话讲真相,打电话前如果我没有重视学法、发正念,打电话时就会有人狠狠的骂我。所以我通常都是先学法、发正念清除干扰众生得救的一切邪恶生命与因素,每次学法后、再发了正念,讲真相效果就会很好。

仅举一列,有一次,一位男士接了电话,他说:你如果是说共产党不好的,我就不和你说话了,我就会挂电话。我没有动心,平静的跟他说:大哥,我跟您打电话是送平安的

我就从疫情开始讲,然后讲到中共的腐败,高官个个贪污腐败,把钱转移到海外,讲中共在历次运动中害死了八千万中国人,现在又打压信仰真、善、忍的好人,天理不容啊,我又讲到藏字石,天要灭中共。

期间他有打断我的话,问了一些问题,我都耐心的给他解答,最后他心服口服的说:你说的有道理,你帮我退吧。我帮他退出了曾经加入过的中共邪恶组织。

三、突破困魔的干扰  每天坚持早起炼功

我这个人从小到大就很喜欢睡觉,我觉得每天能睡到自然醒,然后中午再睡个午觉,那简直太幸福了。记得上中学时,假期我呆在家里,白天在床上看书,看困了随时就睡一觉,晚上到点该睡还睡,也不失眠,一个假期下来养的又白又胖。长大后经常遇到不顺心的事,我更喜欢睡觉了,别人心烦了睡不着觉,我是越烦越睡得香,还经常自我安慰,我对吃的也不感兴趣,睡会儿觉总可以吧。

就因为以前很喜欢睡觉的习惯,使得我在修炼后一直很难突破困魔的干扰,长期以来睡觉也成了我的一个难以突破的关卡,我想早起炼功,每次闹铃响了之后,我很少能起来坚持晨炼,心里一直也痛苦,经过多年学法,发正念的努力。我已经突破了困魔的干扰,现在每天早上五点十分准时起床炼功。一天下来也很精神,以前不早起炼功反而感觉混混沉沉。

师父说:你们想没想过,修炼是最好的休息。能达到你睡觉都达不到的休息,没有人说我炼功炼的太累了,今天啥也干不了了。只能说我炼功炼的浑身轻松,一宿觉都没睡我不觉的困,浑身有力。一天工作下来好象没有事儿一样,是不是这样?”[3]

我还有很多执着心没有去掉,譬如:安逸心,不愿意让人说的心,爱面子的心,对我儿子的情太重,我知道只有在法中归正自己,才能走好最后的修炼路。救度更多的众生,不给自己修炼的路留下遗憾。

最后我以师父的法与大家共勉:其实大家想一想,过去的修炼人要耗尽一生才能走完的路中都不敢怠慢一刻,而要成就大法所度生命之果位的大法弟子修炼中又有最方便的修炼法门,在这种证实法修炼最伟大的荣耀瞬间即逝的暂短修炼时间内怎么能不更精進呢?”[4]

此生有幸修炼大法,我常常在心中无限感恩师父的慈悲苦度!

以上是我有限层次的修炼体会,如有不当之处,请同修慈悲指正。

谢谢师父!

谢谢同修!

Breaking Through Attachments to Assist Master to Save All Sentient Beings

By a Falun Dafa Chinese practitioner in Sydney

Greetings honourable Master!

Greetings to fellow practitioners!

I will share my recent cultivation experience from three aspects, and I would like to ask my fellow practitioners to kindly correct me for any shortcomings.

1. Breaking through various mortal attachments to collect petition signatures in front of the Chinese Consulate

Since arriving in Brisbane, Australia in May 2014, I have been involved in truth-telling projects in Chinatown and other tourist attraction points around the city. After the outbreak of the Chinese Communist Party virus (COVID-19) in Australia in early 2020, I didn’t need to go to the tourist spots as no Chinese tourists were coming to Australia. Fellow practitioners soon launched an End CCP petition signature collection project on the street across from the Chinese Consulate. I started out going with fellow practitioners and never imagined that I can collect signatures by myself. Usually, when participating in Dafa events, I always tend to be at the back, holding the banners, reluctant to hand out the leaflets. That’s because I feel my English skills are poor and my introverted personality.

One day, I saw a notice sent out by the coordinating practitioners that a time slot in the schedule for truth-clarification and petition signatures collection on the street opposite of the Chinese Consulate was empty for a day, and no practitioners had signed up. I remembered what Master said,

“Many Westerners haven’t been harmed by the poison of the malevolent Party, and in those instances the person might come across as a bit indifferent. That’s not a problem. As for the Nine Commentaries, at this time they are an important step in saving humankind. Perhaps, during the next stage, every single person on this earth will soon have to give his stance on whether he wants that evil Party around or not. Each person must choose his future.” (Teaching the Fa at the Western U.S. International Fa Conference, in Collected Fa Teachings, Vol. VII)

I felt the urgency of time. The impact of the pandemic was fierce and all the beings in the West were waiting to be saved. I had to break through my mental and emotional barriers and participate in the End CCP petition program. So, I decisively sent a message to the coordinator that I could go and collect the signatures that day. The streets of the city after lockdowns were cold and empty with little traffic. After I arrived on the street opposite of the Chinese Consulate, I started to recite the Fa-rectification mantra in my mind, pleading for Master to arrange the people fated to be saved to come for signing signatures, and in a short while people came to sign. I experienced many touching examples in the process of collecting signatures. Once an old Western gentleman who looked very dignified came up to me to sign and pointed his finger across the street to the Chinese Consulate and said a lot of things. I didn’t understand everything, but I understood the general meaning. He said he knew a lot of bad things the Chinese Communist Party did and told me with great concern that I need to pay attention to safety. I said, “I am not afraid, I have God’s protection.”

One day, about a year later, a man ran across the street and waved at me while crossing the street, saying loudly, “God is with you.” It was the same elderly Western gentleman I had met last year. Coincidentally, I saw this gentleman again at noon of the day when I was revising this cultivation experience sharing article. He said many blessings and expressed many thanks. He said, “Bless all the volunteers who are standing here to collect signatures, God will bless you, God will always stand with you, thank you, you are doing a very great thing!”

Another time a Western man came up to me and said I’m very supportive of what you are doing, but the Chinese Communist Party is very powerful, and you can’t do anything. I said to him, “Do you believe in God? He said, “Yes”, and I said that, “the CCP had done too many bad things and that God would help to end it, and that the Communist Party of the Soviet Union was also very powerful, and who could believe that it would disintegrate overnight?” The man signed the petition immediately after hearing that. There are often Westerners passing by who say, “you’re doing a great job! “After signing the petition, some people try to give money, some people hug me; and some people are afraid to sign, passing by silently but extending a thumbs up salute. The process of collecting signatures is also a process of cultivation and improvement. For a while, I often thought, after leaving China, the environment has become less harsh, so how can I let go of my fear?

During that time, I often saw Chinese people taking pictures of me. Once a young man took a picture of me, I followed him and took his picture, and told him: “Young man, it is good if you take pictures to help me publicize quitting the evil party, but if you use it to do bad things, it is not good for you.” He looked a little uncomfortable when I took his picture, he asked me why I took his picture. I said, “If you take my picture and give it to the Chinese Embassy, I can also give your picture to the Australian government, this is Australia, freedom of belief.” I also told him the basic truth about Dafa. Later, his tone became kind, and he told me he was in a hurry to go to work and asked if I could delete his photos. I said, “Yes, but you have to delete my photos first.” He took out his phone and deleted the photos of me, and I also deleted his photos. After this incident, I was concerned about people taking my photo, and fear arose in my heart.

Because I had that fear, that improper thought led to some interference later. One Sunday at the end of June this year, I remember that I deliberately pressed my hat down, thinking that it would be better to cover my face more so that people would not know who I was, even if they took photos. There was also a fellow practitioner who collected petition signatures with me that day, but later that practitioner had to leave for half an hour early because of some other matters.

After the practitioner left, a Chinese lady in her 30s came up and asked me if I was Chinese. I said, “Yes,” and she said, “You are not patriotic”. I said: “I am standing here because I love my country; I help people understand the evil of the CCP, loving my motherland China is not the same as loving the party CCP”. This lady didn’t listen to me at all and was taking pictures and filming me from different angles. I immediately took out my phone and took pictures of her as well. She started cursing me and I ignored her. I tried to tell her the truth, and she kept cursing me, and she kept recording as she swore. She also pushed and shoved me and knocked my phone to the ground.

That lady came over and harassed me three times in half an hour. The last time she grabbed the Dafa materials on the table and hurried away. I rushed up and took them back from her. I cried after I got the Dafa materials back. I pitied her. Those who do not know the truth and come with blind hatred to make trouble; the purpose was to scare me off. During this process, we reported it to the police. When the lady heard the police were called, she rushed away. Then, Western practitioners helped to report the case to the police. When I returned home, I looked inward and found many of my own everyday people attachments: fear, seeking comfort, and an attachment to the affection of family members. Cultivation is serious, and it was my wrong heart that caused the trouble. Later, I strengthened my study of the Fa, sent out righteous thoughts, and continued to do the END CCP petition signature collection project.

As I gradually cultivated my heart and got rid of human attachments, my righteous thoughts became stronger and stronger, and my fear was gone. The environment had changed when I was doing the petition project. There were no Chinese people taking photos of me, and I stood on the street to collect petition signatures, free of fear. I told myself that even if no one signed, I was spreading the beautiful positive energy of Dafa and this energy should be shining like gold because I was doing the most righteous thing in the universe. Once this thought developed, I felt that my body became extremely tall and unstoppable.

2. Study the Fa more and the outcome of saving people will be more effective

Master said:

“In reality, your responsibilities as Dafa disciples all lie right there. If you don’t take action to save sentient beings, you will not have fulfilled your responsibility as a Dafa disciple and your cultivation will amount to nothing, for your becoming a Dafa disciple was not for the sake of your own Consummation. This means that you shoulder a monumental mission.” (Fa Teaching at the 2009 Washington DC International Fa Conference – in Collected Fa Teachings, Vol. IX)

Reading this passage of Master’s teachings, I realised once again the importance of saving sentient beings.

As the pandemic in Australia began to spread, there was a time when the city was locked down and I couldn’t go out, so I would make phone calls to the people in mainland China on the RTC to clarify the truth. If I didn’t pay attention to studying the Fa and sending righteous thoughts before calling, I would be cursed severely. So, I usually study the Fa first and send righteous thoughts to remove all the evil beings and factors that interfere with the salvation of sentient beings. Subsequently, the truth-telling feedback will be very effective and positive every time I study the Fa and send righteous thoughts.

For example, once a man answered the phone, and said, “If you are talking about the Communist Party being bad, I will not talk to you and I will hang up the phone.” I was not moved and calmly told him, “Brother, I am calling to you to send peace.” I started with the pandemic and then talked about the corruption of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), how all the senior officials were corrupt and had transferred their money overseas, how the CCP had killed 80 million Chinese people in various political campaigns, and now they were suppressing and persecuting good people who believed in “truthfulness, compassion and tolerance”. Heaven will not allow them to do so, and I also talked about the prophecy of “the stone with Chinese characters naturally formed 270 million years ago in Guizhou Province” (the characters read ‘the Chinese Communist Party is dead’). I told him Heaven will destroy the CCP. During that time, he interrupted me several times and asked some questions, which I answered patiently. Finally, he was convinced and said, “You have a point, you can help me quit the Chinese Communist party.”  

3. Breaking through the interference of the demon of sleepiness, and persisting in getting up early every day to practice the 5 sets of exercises

I have always loved to sleep since I was a child. I thought it was a great happiness to sleep until I wake up naturally every day, and then take a nap at noon. I remember when I was in secondary school, I stayed at home during the holidays, reading in bed during the day and sleeping whenever I got sleepy, and still sleeping soundly at night when it’s time for bed. When the school holiday was over, I had white skin due to lack of sun exposure and was plump due to lack of sports. When I grew up, I often encountered upsetting things and I liked to sleep even more; while others could not sleep when they were upset, I slept better the more upset I was. I also often reassured myself that I wasn’t a glutton for food either, so the least I could do was sleep for a while.

Because of my previous habit of sleeping, it has been difficult for me to break through the hindrance of the demon of sleep. I wanted to get up early to practice the exercises, but every time the alarm went off, I could seldom get up in the morning and felt terrible about it afterwards. After years of studying the Fa and sending forth righteous thoughts, I have broken through the interference of the demon of sleep. I am now up every morning at 5:10 am on time to practice exercises, and I am very energetic throughout the day; as opposed to the past, when I did not get up early to practice exercises, I only felt groggy after waking up.

Master said:

 “Has it ever occurred to you that cultivation is the best form of rest? You can obtain the kind of rest that can’t be obtained through sleep. Nobody would say: “The exercises are making me so tired that I can’t do anything today.” One would only say: “The exercises are making my whole body relaxed and at ease. I don’t feel sleepy after a sleepless night. I feel full of energy. I feel completely fine after a day’s work.” Isn’t that the case?” (Teachings at the First Conference in North America, 1998)

I still have many human attachments that I have not removed, such as the attachment of comfort, the attachment of not wanting to be criticised, the attachment for a good reputation and the attachment of love for my son. I know that only by rectifying myself in Dafa can I walk the final path of cultivation well. To save more sentient beings and leave no regrets on my path of cultivation.

Finally, I would like to encourage us all with the following words from Master’s article.

Master said,

“Actually, if you think about it, the cultivators of the past didn’t dare to slack off for even a second, and that was when it took an entire lifetime to complete the journey. So how can Dafa disciples—who are to achieve the celestial rank of a being who is saved by Dafa and who have the most convenient cultivation way—not be even more diligent when they are given this most glorious honor of Fa-validating cultivation in a brief cultivation period that passes in the blink of an eye?” (“The Closer to the End, the More Diligent You Should Be” The Essentials of Diligent Progress III)

In this life, I have been so fortunate to practice Dafa, and I am often endlessly grateful in my heart for Master’s compassionate salvation!

Thank you, Master!

Thank you, fellow practitioners!
