(Minghui.org) While promoting Shen Yun in our area recently, I have had the opportunity to clarify the truth face to face. When I am out distributing Shen Yun posters, I only have a brief time to talk to people. I sometimes do not have time to think too much about looking inward or base my communication on a solid understanding of the Fa, and the results of my efforts are not so succesful. Over time, I have improved understanding of what is necessary, and the results have become much better.

When delivering posters, I visited most of the stores in a certain area. Most store owners allowed me to display the posters in their stores. But there were still many who refused to take the posters, using various excuses. However, this did not diminish my confidence and I simply recited “Lunyu” to myself instead. Sometimes, when I talked to a shopkeeper, the phone would ring and he would have to go and answer it. I took this opportunity to recite “Lunyu” again. Quite often, after the phone call, the store manager would change his attitude and accept the posters.

Sometimes I need to carefully analyze people's attitudes. Through studying the Fa, I have come to understand the real reason why they had such attitudes, and I can now clarify the truth in a better way. After encountering people who interrupted me and would not allow me to play even thirty seconds of the Shen Yun video, I contemplated the Fa and asked Master for help. I then found that my attachment was that I wanted to talk to them as fast as I could, rather than save them. The sentient being could feel that.

Sometimes, I thought that I needed to complete my job as soon as possible so that I could go home to send forth righteous thoughts. As a result, almost every store manager refused me or accepted just one poster. One day, I brought less than two dozen flyers with me. No one wanted very many them, but they just wanted one. I realized my attachment and corrected myself. Then, their attitude changed. As long as they were not positive, I found that it usually was because I didn't concentrate on saving them but just wanted to finish handing out those flyers as fast as I could.

Master said, “And all of the human ideas, as well as the variety of sources from which those ideas stem, that are bound up in that human thinking will serve to interfere with the person. Whichever kind of life form your thinking aligns with, that life form will immediately have an effect on you.” (“Dafa Disciples Must Study the Fa- Fa Teaching Given at the 2011 Washington DC Metro Area Fa Conference”)

I memorized this Fa and I repeat this Fa and practice it while promoting Shen Yun. I did well that week. I now understand that if my thought conforms to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, Master's Law Body will help me. I should be able to play the Shen Yun promotion video everywhere. Since gaining that understanding, no one has refused me.

After I understood this, various law firms accepted Shen Yun promotional materials quite readily. My wisdom was opened and I could locate and talk to the office managers easily. The law firms or doctors' offices usually have more than one manager. I often need to contact a specific lawyer or doctor. I tell them where I am from and who I am and that I would like to talk with someone in charge concerning traditional culture. When I take this approach, the receptionists change their attitude and ask their supervisor to speak with me rather than saying that the supervisor is busy.

When I visit South Korean restaurants, I tell them that South Korean culture is closely related to the Chinese Ming Dynastic culture. It is fantastic, but this culture cannot be found in China anymore. Most of the Korean store owners allow me to post Shen Yun posters. Some of them even put up the posters themselves. When I truly focus on clarifying the truth, the results are very positive.

Experience has shown me that if I do not browse the daily news or watch TV, but just study the Fa in my spare time, the quality of my truth clarification is good. But if I am distracted, for instance, thinking about the news or some TV show, my attachment increase and the results of my Shen Yun promotion will generally be negative.

I usually visit over sixty stores when I go out to promote Shen Yun. Each time, I find my attachments and get rid of them very fast. When I leave one store, I try to find my attachment quickly so that the results of promoting Shen Yun in the next store are even better.

Sometimes, I feel exhausted and think that a cup of coffee will energize me. But I realized that this is not the way a cultivator should take a break. That's everyday people's manner. Coffee-generated energy will be gone the next day. The only way to be truly energetic is by studying the Fa. Studying the Fa as much as I can will give me the wisdom I need to save sentient beings. For example, I studied several paragraphs of the Fa when I woke up during the night. The next day, I could think of many ways, based on the Fa, to persuade store owners to display Shen Yun materials and thus be saved.

I am so happy that I can go out to save people. I would like to visit every store, one by one.
