(Clearwisdom.net) I am a Dafa practitioner from Liaoning, China. I am 77 years old. I obtained the Fa on April 26, 1996. When my father passed away in 1986, I was over 50. Because I had rheumatism, coronary artery disease, and an irregular heartbeat, I could not walk very far. I often asked my son to pick me up in his car.

But 23 years later, I can ride a bicycle and deliver truth clarification materials by myself. I leave at 7:00 a.m. and return home after 3:00 p.m. The trip is around 50 km and I do not feel tired. My sisters are amazed by my improved health. It is Falun Dafa that changed me. Dafa is so amazing.

I think that the changes in me and my behavior are concrete examples of truth, and they are more powerful than any words can convey. Consequently, my three sisters and their families and thirteen nephews and their families have all declared that they are no longer members of any Chinese Communist Party (CCP) organizations. My brother, his seven children, and their families have also relinquished all ties with CCP organizations.

Since July 20, 1999, the CCP persecution of Falun Dafa has spread all over China. Some Dafa coordinators have been arrested. For a while, practice sites and/or study groups were broken up. And there were some places where Teacher's new articles and truth clarification materials could not be delivered.

On the day I moved to a new house, I met a local practitioner who was a coordinator for the area. This person was delivering Teacher's articles and truth clarification materials to my area. This person could not find anyone to help. I thought it would be a shame if many practitioners did not receive Teacher's articles and truth clarification materials. It was no accident that I moved to this neighborhood, it was Teacher's arrangement.

Anyone can be a coordinator, so I, too, should be able to be a coordinator. I told the coordinator that I would make the deliveries and I would be responsible for this area. I took the initiative to contact fellow practitioners. We went to a mountain to practice the exercises together. Then, we went to the streets to clarify the truth to people.

Later, I was arrested. After I returned home, I organized a Fa study group. Gradually, the group became bigger, and the original small group grew to become several groups. Although there were interruptions, several groups still get together to study the Fa. Most of the practitioners in these groups obtained the Fa before July 20, 1999. Although some practitioners have been detained, we still continue Fa study, through which we have improved ourselves, and continue to do the three things.

I think it is very important to help practitioners who still have not come forward to help. Every practitioner has a heavenly kingdom where there are numerous sentient beings to be saved. I tried to find practitioners who had not joined any group or had just been released from prison, a forced labor camp, or who had some obvious shortcomings. I helped them by studying the Fa with them, discussing, and helping them to improve their understanding of the Fa and to identify their fundamental attachments. With help and reinforcement from Teacher, most of them have corrected their shortcomings and have promised "to seriously study the Fa and do the three things again." Some have joined Fa study groups and worked hard on improving themselves. I experienced the truth of these words of Teacher's:

"The Fa can break all attachments, the Fa can destroy all evil, the Fa can shatter all lies, and the Fa can strengthen righteous thoughts." ("Drive Out Interference")

Our enlightenment nature is gradually improving. We are becoming more and more mature and working harder and harder to improve.

Because the CCP persecutes Falun Gong, we are unable to connect with the practitioners in some areas and they cannot get Teacher's new articles. This has affected their pace of resisting the persecution and of overall improvement.

I took part in delivering materials to two suburbs. I once visited a woman who lives in the countryside 100 km away. I found that practitioners in three villages (in two counties) had lost all contact with each other and had not obtained any lectures, new articles, or other materials.

When I returned home, I contacted our materials distribution site and had some materials sent to those isolated practitioners. I also talked to them about joining a Fa study group, and/or discussing each person's understanding of the Fa periodically. I worked until they were connected with a local site.

Getting to some rural areas is not easy, but I would ride a bicycle to deliver materials every week. In the summer, it was very hot, but almost always there were clouds to block the sun. In the winter, it was mostly sunny, there was no wind, and the temperatures were warm. I could sense Teacher looking after me every moment.

Previously, I had a strong fear attachment. Whenever there was a disturbance, I would leave my home [to avoid harassment]. In 2000 and 2001, I was arrested when I returned home after a period of hiding. In 2002, I stopped leaving my home. I wanted to be an upright Dafa practitioner. I insisted on regularly distributing materials and organizing Fa study groups.

I do not recognize the old forces' arrangements, take righteous actions with righteous thoughts, and openly admit to being a Dafa practitioner wherever I am. My neighbors all know I am practicing Dafa. The whole village where my sister and her family lives all know I am practicing Dafa. Police officers from the local police station do not disturb me anymore.
