Yearning for Life

May 03, 2006 |   By a Falun Dafa practitioner in Mainland China

(Clearwisdom.net) At the New Year's Day holidays I received a call from a farmer relative inviting us to a birthday banquet. My husband was not sure why we were informed about a regular birthday. But I realized that nothing happens by chance on the cultivation path, particularly during the cosmos' Fa-rectification period, when everything that happens has to do with Fa validation and with rescuing sentient beings. Under the present circumstances, nothing irrelevant can happen.

Perhaps Master had arranged this to see my thoughts concerning rescuing sentient beings. I prepared myself mentally, therefore, by sending forth righteous thoughts to the area where I would be going and to all those who would be at the banquet: "Please, Master, strengthen me, your disciple, to eradicate all evil that interferes with rescuing sentient beings in the area that I will visit; eradicate the dark minions, rotten demons, and all elements of the Communist evil specter and its evil factors in other dimensions associated with the banquet attendees' dimensions." I also prepared some truth clarification materials.

After we got there, my younger sister, a local practitioner, and I told our relatives the truth of Dafa while helping them with odd jobs. My sister and I cooperated with each other: when one clarified the truth, the other would be sending forth righteous thoughts. We got excellent results. Six or seven people quit the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP's) subsidiary organizations.

Many guests came to celebrate our relative's birthday, including a primary school principal, teachers, veteran army men, and village officials. I knew many locals in my hometown. My younger sister and I worked closely together to patiently and sincerely tell them the truth, that the evil CCP was facing disintegration and that the heavens are destroying the CCP. We advised them with sincerity that quitting the CCP and its subsidiary organizations, staying away from the CCP, and remembering that "Falun Dafa is good" and "Zhen-Shan-Ren is good" would save them and provide them with good fortune in the future. All those that understood our words quit the CCP.

Farmers have common sense and are kind-hearted, with relatively few deviated notions. A middle-aged village official, after learning the truth, quit the CCP without hesitation. Holding my hand tightly he said, "I understand it all." (He had seen the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party VCD previously.)

In the evening I went to another relative's residence to clarify the truth and recommend withdrawal from the CCP. The adults in the home quit the CCP's Young Pioneers organization that they had joined as youths. A teenage boy sitting near me volunteered, "I want to quit the Young Pioneers, too." I had been explaining things to the adults and had ignored the boy sitting near me. On learning the truth, the boy not only made a sensible choice but also expressed his regret, "I said bad things about Falun Gong in the past." I told him that it would be fine if he did not do it again and asked him to remember that Falun Gong is good. He nodded.

I went to the area again during the Chinese Lunar New Year. The husband and daughter of one of my practitioner cousins understood the truth through our coordinated efforts. Both of them quit the CCP and expressed their support of my cousin's belief. The only exception was my cousin's son, whose mind had been poisoned by the CCP's propaganda since the persecution began on July 20, 1999. He has been interfering with his mother's cultivation practice. About a day before New Year's Day he found a truth-clarification flyer at the door. He yelled at his mother, "Isn't this anti-Communist?" A few days later he suddenly got seriously sick. He felt numb and could not move from the chest down. He was diagnosed with osteomyelitis, a bone infection. Over 10,000 yuan was spent on his illness in just ten days, which is not a small amount for a farmer's family. He had difficulty walking following an operation on his lower back. He was told by medical staff to go home and rest. My cousin's husband was so worried that he cried, "He is only in his 30s. What will his future be?" My younger sister visited him a few times to clarify the truth to him and to send forth righteous thoughts together with my cousin, to clear up his dimensional space and asked him to read the Nine Commentaries.

I also visited him with my younger sister to tell him the facts, send forth righteous thoughts, and tell him about Master's compassion and Dafa's compassion. We advised him to quit the CCP's organizations for youth and for children. Our sincerity and compassion moved him, and he gladly withdrew from the CCP's organizations. Now he can move about freely, and he is also studying the Fa.

On the fifth day of the Chinese New Year, my younger sister and I visited a relative in a nearby village during a howling snowstorm. An elderly person in his 70s quit the CCP, and his sons and grandsons quit the CCP's subsidiary organizations.

Through coordinated truth clarification efforts during New Year's Day and Chinese Lunar New Year, more than 30 people quit the Communist specter's organizations. I feel strongly about people's yearning for life. They are waiting to be rescued by practitioners. Those who got to know the truth were very friendly toward us. I strongly felt Master's immense compassion in these experiences. In the course of saving sentient beings, practitioners' coordinated efforts produced a strong energy field and good results. Of course there were those who said bad things behind our backs. But we were quite tolerant, as the only thing that Dafa disciples have a role in is saving people.

Even though it has been a long time since these trips, I still recall people's looks upon learning the truth: the innocent smile of the teenage boy, the excitement and happiness of the middle-aged village cadre, the simplicity and kindness of the old man in his seventies, all of which encouraged me to do well what I should do.

I face a group of intellectuals at work. Although there are good people among them, some of them have been indoctrinated by the evil CCP's deviated culture with some hold quite absurd notions. At my limited cultivation level, I have had difficulties rescuing these people. But with Master by my side and with the Fa, I will do my best.

In the more than 10 years that I have cultivated in Falun Dafa, particularly during the past few years of Fa-rectification cultivation, the evil has persecuted me. I made a few detours when I was unable to find my fundamental attachment to break through the old forces' arrangements. It was compassionate Master who pulled me up, over and over again. With His compassionate protection I was gradually positively changed step by step, and I am able to be where I am today. Only by cultivating myself better and by rescuing more predestined people will I not disappoint our compassionate and great Master!
