Shijiazhuang Dafa General Assistance Center:

I have learned that your conference for sharing cultivation experiences met with obstacles. There were three reasons for that, and you will certainly learn a lesson from it. In fact, this incident has directly affected the Dafa activities in Beijing and the entire country, and it will have a certain negative impact on normal Dafa activities later on. I think that you will definitely realize this and do better in the future.

Additionally, let me say a few more words about Jing Zhanyi’s speeches at the seminar conference. Jing Zhanyi’s situation is for the validation of Dafa’s scientific nature from science’s perspective, thereby letting the scientific and technological community or the academic world come to understand Dafa. He was not supposed to give speeches to practitioners, as doing so would not do any good at all and would only cause new practitioners or disciples without a solid understanding of the Fa to develop attachments. But without needing to listen to such speeches, those disciples who study the Fa well will continue their determined cultivation in Dafa all the same.

More importantly, I have taught the Fa for two years, and I have given disciples two years to genuinely practice cultivation. Over disciples’ two years of genuine cultivation, I have not allowed any activities that have nothing to do with genuine cultivation to interfere with the orderly and step-by-step processes of improvement arranged for practitioners. If the speeches are not given to the scientific and academic communities to validate the scientific nature of Dafa, but rather to the cultivating disciples who have limited time, think about it: could there be a greater interference with practitioners than that? In order not to disturb practitioners, I do not even see them. If practitioners see me, they cannot calm down for at least a few days, and this disrupts the arrangements I had my fashen make for them. I have told the Research Society about this issue, but perhaps it was not made clear to Jing Zhanyi. Now that the matter is over, none of you should try to determine who should be held accountable. I think that the main reason [for this] is that you did not realize it. But you must pay attention from now on. Everything we do today is to lay a foundation for future dissemination of Dafa over countless years to come, and to leave a perfect, correct, and error-free form of cultivation practice. Today I point this out not to criticize anyone, but to correct the form of cultivation practice—[a form which is] to be left for future generations.

This letter is to be distributed to the assistance centers in different regions.
