Poem: Into a Mirror

My heart is here My hand is open I am listening Please speak

Note from the author: I wrote this poem initially about becoming a stronger body, improving communication among practitioners, and cooperating. But later I realised that it was not just about that - it was also about truth clarification. The way I understand it, for the most part, how well we are received is a reflection of ourselves. If we are pure and righteous, the barriers between us will not exist. Many people want to know the truth about the persecution and their hearts are ready to receive it. They are listening. "Please speak." How they react is like "looking into a mirror." Our attachments can be spotted, our fears projected. This is my understanding at this point and I have realised I have many shortcomings in this area.

Be it Falun Gong practitioners who walked out of forced labour camps, appealed on Tiananmen unhindered, or succeeded against all odds - it was all because of their states of mind and Teacher's protection (I believe). The Righteous Fa [ Law or Principles] has been taught to us, and if we can truly follow it, we will succeed. I will try to do better.
