“Leading to a New Century
Creating the world and opening the sky to perform the grand drama
Sun and Moon of the Nine Heavens are the backdrop
Why is there a catastrophe after each act?
It’s to replace the world, and to change the sky and land
The sky and earth went through a long duration, and the righteous atmosphere was lost
After creation, stasis, and decay, the destruction is at hand
Dafa can save sentient beings
The truth opens the door to a new century”
The above lyrics are composed by Master in Hong Yin III. It touches my heart and I cannot find words to describe my excitement. I feel so fortunate that I have obtained the Fa and can follow Master on the path back home.
I started to practice cultivation in 2009 when a veteran practitioner gave me many books. In the following year, Master helped me eliminate my karma and purified my body. My soul has been purified and I am in the process of trying to catch up with the process of Fa-rectification.
Master said in “Fa Teaching Given at the 2010 New York Fa Conference”:
“As you know, there is always the question of why there have been so few new Dafa disciples since the persecution started. It is precisely because the old forces locked up the entrance, and thus nobody could enter unless they had an exceptional circumstance or I specifically needed them. That is because, based on the old forces’ logic, the test has already reached its end, and the harshest period has passed; and, having arrived at the persecution’s final stages, the most sinister and treacherous environment posed by the test has already passed, and many of the evil people who were put in place have died. With that sort of evil environment being no more, those who recently entered [Dafa] will have a hard time establishing the mighty virtue that a Dafa disciple is supposed to have, and thus [the old forces] do their utmost to control [who enters].”
With the help of veteran practitioners, I learned how to tell people the facts about Dafa. Whether I know the person or not, I always give him or her a truth-clarification DVD. I am not choosing whom I offer salvation to and want to save all sentient beings, just like Master has told us to do. Master arranged for people with a predestined relationship come to me. As a result, my old classmate, with whom I had no contact for many years, came to visit me. So did my relatives and a workplace director with whom I used to have a bad relationship. They were really surprised by the fact that I was a Falun Gong practitioner. I gave them a truth-clarification DVD and some of them agreed to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations right away. Some said that they would come back to learn more about it and some even quit the CCP for their families. Encouraged by Master, I always carry truth-clarification DVDs with me and take every opportunity to share it with people.
Since I often went shopping in the mall and a sales lady knew me well, I talked with her about Falun Gong. She was very scared and talked about the slander that she had heard from the media. I told her that the information she heard was not true and that I don't watch the state-run news, because they are full of lies. Then she asked me what I watch often, and I told her, “This, and if you dare to watch it, I will give it to you.” She took the DVD immediately and hid it. She said, “Had it been someone else, I definitely would not have taken it. Since you are a nice person, I will watch and learn about it at home. Thank you!”
One day, I went to a training session. The teacher was fine, but she was using too many things from the Party culture. I felt sorry for her, and I wanted to tell her the facts about Dafa. Master then arranged for her to come to me. We were in the elevator and she welcomed my colleague and me to go back with her in her car. On the way, I said to her, “What you have taught us is great, but there is one shortcoming.” She asked, “What's the shortcoming?” I answered, “Your words are full of Party culture. You must not have read the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. I can give you a copy. You will understand it when you read this book.”
I was about to take out the DVD from my bag when my colleague wanted to pull me away. I ignored her and gave it to the teacher. After we got off the elevator, my colleague was very scared and said, “What if she reports you?” I replied, “Master is protecting me. No one would dare to report me.”
The Chinese New Year was around the corner and a veteran practitioner gave me three nicely designed calendars. I gave away the first two, and I saved the last one for my boss.
The company I work for is a big one, but I was the only Dafa practitioner there. I knew that I should offer them salvation. Master asked overseas practitioners to target the mainstream people when they promote Shen Yun. I knew that I should do the same, and help to save my boss.
With other managers present, I went to the office of my boss and gave him the calendar. He thanked me and opened it in front of me.
Two days later, my boss asked the deputy manager to talk to me and he said, “Our boss is also the secretary of the Party branch. The calendar asks people to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations. How could you give this to him as a gift?” I answered, “The Chinese New Year is coming. There is nothing precious in my home that can serve as a gift for our boss. This calendar is very precious. So I decided to give it to him.” The deputy manager said, “We do not interfere with freedom of belief. But the government does not allow it. I suggest that you do not bring such things here. Look, it even has a web site.” He opened the calendar to the page where the web site was mentioned. I said, “Alright. I will not make trouble for you.” I was going to take the calendar back, but he was faster. He grabbed the calendar and smiled, “It's mine!” Other people who were present, including the financial manager, all laughed out loud.
When I left his office, I was very happy. Master has arranged everything, and all we need to do is simply go ahead and do it. I thank Master for giving me the good opportunity to offer salvation to sentient beings.
After the Chinese New Year, the deputy manager asked me to come to his office and wished me a Happy New Year. He said that since I did not visit him during the New Year festival, he decided to seek me out. I realized what he was looking for.
When I got home, I made a Shen Yun DVD for him. The second day, he asked me to go to his office again, asking me what I was studying, I replied, “I am studying Falun Gong.” He pretended to be surprised. I stood up and put a Shen Yun DVD on his table and said, “Here is this year's version. You should watch it. I have to go back to work.” He did not say a word but smiled while looking at the DVD.
When I left his office, I closed the door behind me.
