(Clearwisdom.net) Under the brutal persecution that began on July 20, 1999, the entire society, our families, our places of employment, and many other areas put varying degrees of pressure on every cultivator. Facing these tests, every cultivator thought about the issue seriously and in the end, was able to bear one thought in mind: Follow Master!

Practitioner A is from a family that holds high positions in the government official. She knew that Dafa was good but was always afraid that it would affect her fame, self-interest, and government position. Her husband used all kinds of methods developed by the Party over the years to pressure her, including getting himself drunk and going into a frenzy, beating and scolding her, kicking the table, throwing glasses on the floor, etc. In order to avoid conflict, Practitioner A would close her bedroom door. However, her husband would kick the door and threaten her saying, "If you practice anymore, you'll have to get out of this house." Her son disowned her and even wanted to beat her, saying that the three generations of his entire family had benefited from the Party, and he could not stand her going against it. But Practitioner A firmly believed in Master and Dafa, and firmly believed that there was nothing wrong with following Master. She did not falter and told her family solemnly that she had done no wrong in practicing Falun Gong. She said, "I know the path that I am walking." Seeing her firm attitude, her family members agreed to let her practice at home but did not allow her to communicate with other practitioners. Practitioner A calmly told her family members, "Before 1999, for the seven years when our Master's books, audiotapes, and videos were authorized for sale by the government, why was there no self-immolation incident? Why did it only occur after the persecution began? Anyone with a brain can tell what's happening. Master told us in Lecture Seven of Zhuan Falun that 'practitioners can't kill' whether it's homicide or suicide. The Tiananmen Self-Immolation Incident is a set-up, it is made-up to frame my Master!" In fact, all Chinese people know that the evil CCP can do anything, no matter how evil or bad it is, which is why they are afraid of the Party.

Whenever anyone went to her place, no matter for what reason or on what occasion--whether they were policemen, senior Party officials, babysitters, drivers, cleaners, or vegetable sellers--she would never miss the opportunity to clarify the truth to them, give them an amulet (1), truth-clarification CDs, a copy of the Nine Commentaries as well as other materials. Many times she was able to get an entire family to withdraw from the Party. In her own words, Master arranged for her to be there not for her to enjoy life, but to save sentient beings!

With further Fa study, from obtaining truth-clarification materials from other areas to using our own money to print materials to having sentient beings who've understood the truth help us print materials, our city has developed material distribution sites everywhere. All the sentient beings here can see the truth and understand the truth. Everything has happened thanks to Master's compassionate protection!

Practitioner B has cultivated for almost two years. Before cultivation, she used to have many diseases, looked pale, and was very thin. Every year she had to spend thousands of yuan on medical expenses alone. She was very fatigued and in a lot of hardship. After she understood the truth, she was very upset with herself for finding the Fa so late. She understood that it is not easy to obtain the Fa and treasured it even more. Following Master's teachings, she has never dared to become lax. Everyday she abides by Dafa's requirements in life and at work. Seeing her changes, her mother told everyone she met, "Master Li is such a great Master. Falun Gong is such a great practice. It has a hundred benefits and not a single harm to people. The CCP is inhuman. It has created all these lies to deceive the people. It regards killing as child's play. The Tiananmen Self-Immolation Incident is a huge lie, fabricated to manipulate people. Why are there no cases of self-immolation in the over 80 countries where Falun Gong is practiced?"

Everywhere she went, she would clarify the truth. From studying the Fa, she became anxious to want to print truth-clarification materials. With another practitioner's help, a family materials site was set up at her place, where she could make materials in her free time. The entire family would distribute these flyers to everyone in the region during lunch break, so that everyone would be able to read about the truth of Dafa.

There are some counties and cities here where there are no practitioners. However, after sentient beings understood the truth, they actively helped Dafa disciples, and some righteous people have even shouldered some important responsibilities to help spread the Nine Commentaries and "Minghui Weekly" to every sentient being.

We should make sure we are "not omitting a single area where there are people," ("Let Go of Human Attachments and Save the World's People") Our goal is to help sentient beings obtain the truth as soon as possible and be saved. Practitioners often coordinate with each other. Some of us will distribute in the city, some will go to faraway villages. Some use public transport, some ride bicycles. A practitioner said, "Everything that can be used is our Fa-tool." Once, four of us were distributing materials in a group. It was pretty successful at first, but there were two practitioners who kept picking on each other. One felt the other was too slow and the other felt that she had too strong an attachment to fear. In the end, not a single flyer was distributed, and we ended up walking the wrong way. One practitioner saw this and told us a story from "Journey to the West," where the three disciples fought with each other and were made use of by the evil. To put it simply, "Why have we come here? We have to be more tolerant of each other in order to do this well. Master pulled us up from hell, cleansed us, and didn't mind our flaws at all." Hearing this, we were all very ashamed of ourselves. We changed our mentality, divided into two groups, and were able to distribute the flyers successfully. With each flyer distributed we would add a righteous thought: let every brochure carry Dafa's power and eliminate the evil wherever it goes; let every sentient being who sees the flyer understand the truth and spread the flyer widely; let the good people spread it with praise, and let the bad people be changed!

In the dark night, we lost our way. Suddenly, a person came out of nowhere riding a bicycle. A fellow practitioner suggested that we follow him and we found our way. We knew that it was Master protecting us at every moment and unbidden tears filled our eyes!

Especially when we traveled to the mountains, it was really as if the rocks, grass and flowers were waiting for us to come and were talking to us. Whenever we were afraid of wolves, tigers or snakes, we would sing "Falun Dafa is good! Falun Dafa is good! Falun Dafa is a righteous Fa!" and "Buddha's light shines everywhere, propriety and righteousness harmonize everything." (Zhuan Falun, Lecture Three) We would loudly tell every plant to remember that "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance" is good! Immediately we would be filled with energy. Crossing the mountains, we traveled to village after village leaving our footprints everywhere.

Every time we came back from distributing flyers and clarifying the truth, we never felt tired from riding the bicycles (sometimes hundreds of miles). Only Dafa disciples know that it is Master by our sides, strengthening us at every moment!

We have come from the heavens to this human world. We have escaped heavenly calamity. Let's not have any attachment to laziness. Fellow practitioners, do not forget to go home! Master has suffered so many hardships for us, what else is there that we cannot put down as we assist Master in Fa-rectification?

Thank you, Master, for your compassionate salvation!

Note:
1. Amulet- In China, practitioners sometimes clarify the truth by giving people something small to wear or cherish, bearing a few words reminding them of the goodness of Dafa.
