(Minghui.org) Master said in Zhuan Falun: “There is this rule: If in the course of cultivation practice jealousy is not given up, one will not attain Right Fruit—absolutely not.” (Lecture Seven, Jealousy)

People's ideas and notions that are driven by jealousy are extreme and stupid, and how they behave is even more irrational. For example, a practitioner sees that other practitioners have been “transformed” while he is still resisting, so he feels that he is treated unfairly and also allows people to “transform” him. This is a manifestation of the attachment to jealousy. A person sees that others have not sacrificed anything and are enjoying their lives, while he did a lot of things but is not appreciated; he thus feels he is being treated unfairly and becomes smart, too. A person watches old friends become evil accomplices after they were “transformed,” so he gets angry and will also be “transformed” in order to not “lose” too much. A person sees that others, who have not done well, are being praised constantly, while he sacrifices and suffers silently. He feels that is unfair and protects himself and is reluctant to suffer more. These are all manifestations of the attachment to jealousy. When we have a calm mind we will be able to observe these matters.

During my long-term cultivation, I have suffered a lot of hardships and sacrificed quite a bit, but have not been treated well. Thus, I was always complaining and it became impossible for me to improve my xinxing. I became very distressed when I noticed my gong level going up but then fall when I could not maintain my xinxing. Seeing that I could not come to my senses, Master gave me a hint that this was actually a notion which was brought upon me by the attachment to jealousy. Other people are jealous of others' strength, while I am jealous of others' weaknesses. I suddenly understood why I have suffered so much pain and persecution yet came through, but I did not come through during the persecution, when I was arrested last time. The reason was because my attachment to jealousy was taken advantage of by evil beings. I also understood why two practitioners successfully resisted being “transformed” by persecution, yet they were “transformed” due to being angry because other fellow practitioners were accomplices of evil beings. The real reason was the attachment to jealousy, not because they were angry, which allowed them to be “transformed.”

When I realized the manifestation and hazards, which were brought about by my attachment to jealousy, I started adding a thought when sending forth righteous thoughts to disintegrate this. Through my celestial eye I saw it being blown to pieces just like the red dragon shown in Shen Yun. The pink particles are like small molecules throughout the celestial bodies. They are very dense like floating water molecules.

I realized when the old universe became bad, the old forces arranged the Chinese Communist Party vicious dragon to persecute Dafa and “test” cultivators due to their attachment to jealousy. The clown figure in the human world went mad due to his attachment to jealousy and is against Dafa. They are heading for destruction and can never again have a future. We are all beings in the old universe. The microscopic layer of our lives has deviated. Is there a connection between the most surface point, which is not assimilated into the Fa and the attachment to jealousy?

Master also said in Zhuan Falun:

“Today, those who study the human body have discovered that our human mind activities or human thoughts can generate a substance. At a very high level, we have found that it is indeed a substance, but this substance is not in the form of the brain waves as we have discovered in research today. Instead, it is in the form of a complete human brain. Typically, when an everyday person thinks about something, what he or she generates is something in the form of the brain. Because it does not have energy, it will disperse shortly afterwards. A practitioner’s energy, on the other hand, can be preserved much longer.” (“Consecration” in Lecture Five)

When we think about issues and do things with a strong attachment to jealousy and other attachments, don't the monsters of these bad attachments again form the vicious dragon? Once when I was eliminating evil beings, I saw all kinds of grotesque monsters forming a large snake in a split second and they wanted to attack me.

I previously wrote an article entitled, “Eliminating Pernicious Thoughts Is Critical at this Stage” where I talked about the importance of our every thought as the Fa-rectification approaches the human surface. We should only have benevolent and righteous thoughts, and never generate evil thoughts. Moreover, we should not hurl verbal abuse or do evil deeds when we don't maintain our xinxing. I deeply realized that one thought of ours can accomplish big things. But one bad word or evil deed can also bring us huge karma. These black substances replenish energy for the evil party. We not only have to adhere to extended periods of sending forth righteous thoughts, but also need to cultivate ourselves well by improving and maintaining our xinxing, so as to truly and fundamentally get rid of the last crazy evil being.

Finally, let us remember Master's Fa:

“Our Falun Dafa will protect practitioners from deviating. How does it protect you? If you are a true practitioner, our Falun will safeguard you. I am rooted in the universe. If anyone can harm you, he or she would be able to harm me. Put simply, that person would be able to harm this universe.” (“Characteristics of Falun Dafa” in Lecture One of Zhuan Falun)

The above is my personal understanding. Please point out anything inappropriate.
