(Minghui.org) About 200 million Chinese people have withdrawn from the Chinese Communist Party or its affiliated organizations over the past ten-plus years. Among those helping people understand why it was important to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) are Falun Gong practitioners, and amongst them a certain shop owner.

I noticed a well dressed couple window shopping, and asked them to come in and look around.

Both came in and when I helped the woman try on clothes, I saw that the man grabbed his right hand with his left and heard him mutter, “How come my right hand is numb again? I haven't had this problem for several years.”

I told him that this was caused by blockage of his meridians and energy channels. He looked a little surprised and said that a practitioner of Chinese medicine had told him the same.

I told him that one should look at everything in life with a calm and peaceful mind, that only good people would prosper and that to help others would bring benefits. The man agreed and asked how come I was so knowledgeable.

When I told him that I practiced Falun Gong, he asked why I wasn't afraid, given the CCP's ban and persecution of the practice.

We started talking about Falun Gong, and soon the woman came over and sat next to me. She pointed out that her husband was a police officer and asked why I seemed to be unconcerned.

“I believe fate brought us together today,” I replied.

I explained about the persecution of practitioners by the CCP, that it has deceived the Chinese people, even going so far as to kill Falun Gong practitioners and sell their organs for profit.

The woman asked again whether I was afraid and if people knew that I practiced Falun Gong. I replied that everyone around me knows that I am a practitioner and an honest business person.

I told them that if they quit the CCP, it would benefit them.

At first the man was reluctant, but when he realized that he could use an alias, both agreed to quit the CCP.
