Explaining the Fa During the 2003 Lantern Festival at the U.S. West Fa Conference:
Question: Because of attachments, I’ve been in a poor state for a long time. I want to do Dafa work well, yet I’m afraid that my poor state will affect other practitioners. Should I set the work aside and really put a lot into cultivating myself for a period of time?
Teacher: It won’t affect anything if you study the Fa while you do Dafa work. Master doesn’t have any objection to that. Also, those of you here, whether you’re a student or you have a job, none of you can neglect the role that you play in the ordinary people’s society. You all have to do well in everything that you should do, and at the same time it makes things easier in your work of validating Dafa and clarifying the truth. Otherwise, if you can’t even be financially stable, if on a daily basis you have to worry about shelter and food, if the most basic needs of life can’t be assured, how can you have extra energy to validate the Fa? Isn’t that interference? Don’t make unnecessary troubles for yourself, and don’t just follow along without much thought. If you have a better source of income and want to change your way of living, I’m not against it. What I’m saying is, if all of you go and stop working that’s just totally unacceptable.
Do you know how important this form of cultivation of today’s Dafa disciples is? In the time to come, here at this place of humans, a human becoming a God will no longer be a myth. Previously in this place of humans, when people talked about cultivation of this or cultivation of that, it was all just cultivating the assistant spirit—humans weren’t cultivating at all. In the future, the future that you’re forging, you’ll have left behind in this place the path for humans to become Gods! Everything you’re doing today is the actual practice that will be used as examples in the future, of being able to cultivate while doing ordinary people’s work. If you go to extremes you’ll wreck this path, so you cannot go to extremes. You should just openly and nobly do well in what you should do in society, and then cultivate. Then you’ll definitely be able to meet the standard that cultivators should meet, the standard for Consummation, because this is the path that the people of the future will take.
The human society of the future is one without religion, and everyone will be a part of society, people will be participating in everything of that society, and perhaps the Fa-truths at this level of human beings and their inner meanings at higher levels will be integrated throughout the textbooks that students study. So in this Fa-rectification it’s being made possible for man to become Gods. It’s not a change at this level of human beings—it involves a systematic harmonizing and perfecting of the entire cosmic system, it’s the harmonizing and perfecting of the Fa. This type of event where people persecute Gods who are here to save people won’t exist again. Situations like Jesus being crucified will absolutely never be allowed to happen again. So how we walk the path of cultivation well in this place of ordinary people has become of utmost importance.
