(Minghui.org) I am 71-years-old and my husband is 77. We continue to tell people about the persecution of Falun Dafa and help them to withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
My husband was knocked down by a car on his way home from shopping. With his leg pinned under the car, he shouted to the driver, “Please move the car and pull me out!”
The young driver seemed to be in shock. He asked my husband if he was OK and wanted to take him to the hospital.
My husband replied, “I'll be fine. I'm a Falun Dafa practitioner. We are looked after by our Master.”
My husband talked to the driver about Falun Dafa and the persecution, and asked if he had quit the CCP.
“I was a member of the Youth League,” the young man said. “I’d be grateful if you could help me renounce it.”
I've come across many types of people when talking about Falun Dafa. Some can understand why Dafa is maligned and why they should quit the CCP. However, there are others that have been deeply influenced by the CCP's deceitful propaganda about Dafa and refuse to quit.
I met a man at a fair who was a Party member and a newly appointed village committee director. I talked to him about Dafa, and he listened attentively. However, when I asked him to quit the CCP, he refused.
He said, “I know the CCP is really vicious. Corruption runs from top to bottom in the Party. I tried everything in my power to become the leader of the village committee so that I could pretend to be one of them. I wanted to see what made them corrupt, and then I could ferret them out.”
I told him it was excellent that he wanted to catch bad people, but his approach might turn the opposite effect, as he could easily get carried away and behave like them.
“But how can I catch them if I am not one of them?” he retorted.
I explained, “You have to be very careful not to get caught up in things. You can't do harm to yourself. You still have a family. First, you need to withdraw from the Party.”
After a pause, I continued. “You can retain your position, but you should never take advantage of others when you are in a position of power. The more grassroots support you get, the more respect you will earn.”
I ended by saying, “The Party vows to fight corruption these days. It's only a matter of time before all those corrupt officials will get punished. It's the law of heaven that good will be rewarded and evil will be punished.”
He finally agreed to withdraw from the CCP. I concluded that whatever happens to us is usually the result of what underlying thoughts and attitudes we have. If people choose to quit the Party, they can definitely have a bright future.
When it comes to quitting the CCP, I used to believe that students and college graduates were the most difficult group to help quit the Party.
Master said,
“Saving people is just that, saving people, and to pick and choose would not be merciful.” (“Fa Teaching at the 2009 Greater New York International Fa Conference”)
My husband started a conversation with a young student and told him about Dafa and the movement to quit the Party. The young man seemed to agree with what my husband said and gladly took the Dafa informational materials.
My husband told him how to access internet sites that were blocked on his cell phone. He was very excited to find that he could read censored information. He turned around and shouted to his friends, “Hey come over here. This guy is talking about Falun Dafa. You need to hear this!”
All three of them listened and understood the significance of withdrawing from the CCP and its affiliated organizations. Before leaving, they repeatedly asked my husband to take special care of his safety. When they got into the car, they held their hands out the window to wave and called out “Falun Dafa is great!”
I went to a market to distribute Falun Dafa materials one day and met a neatly dressed middle-aged man with his young son. I assumed that he was of importance because he was so well dressed.
I greeted him and handed him a flyer about Dafa. He asked if I had anything else to give him. I told him to wait for a minute and turned around toward a young man who was selling vegetables. He had just received my open letter to the Public Security Bureau and 610 Office about the persecution of Dafa.
I asked the vendor to give the letter to the man and promised to bring him another one when I returned to the market. He nodded and handed over the letter.
The man had a surprised look on his face when he saw the letter. He immediately grabbed me and told me to follow him.
I thought that he might be a policeman or government official. As we were walking towards the gate of the market, I said to him, “I’m here because I want to tell people that Falun Dafa is good, and only after withdrawing from the CCP and its organizations can one keep safe.”
Meanwhile, my husband was sending righteous thoughts.
The man cut me off: “Enough! I know the situation better than you do.”
“Then why do you want to stop me from doing what I’m doing?” I continued, “All Falun Dafa practitioners are doing good deeds and follow the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance. You should treat Dafa practitioners well.”
He inquired, “Since you follow the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance, could you let me know your name and address? If it's the truth, I’ll let you go.”
I gave him my personal details, and even told him the name of the CCP Party secretary of our village.
“You can go now,” he said. “I've left my police ID card at home, so I can’t take you to the police station.”
My husband and I returned home safely under Master's protection.
I 'm glad that I handed the letter to the policeman. I just hope that he would read it and understand the true situation about the persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners.
