Falun Gong practitioners have been telling people about Falun Gong and the persecution for many years now, which I believe is the reason people are awakening and eager to learn about it.
Below are some of my experiences of talking to people about Falun Gong.
I went to a local tourist destination in Beijing and saw eight young men pushing their bikes together in a line to have their photo taken.
I went up to them and asked if they needed any help. They seemed pleased and asked me to take photos of them. I took a few pictures from different angles.
After I had finished taking the pictures, I said, “Please don’t go yet. Give me a few minutes to tell you about something.”
When I asked them where they were from, they told me that they were from Beijing and had just graduated from college. They also said that they had just started to work for a local company.
I asked whether they had ever joined the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) or its affiliated organizations. They all had.
“You must be very smart and talented to have been recruited by your company,” I said. “You should know that CCP officials are very corrupt and unpopular. People used to say that winning people’s hearts wins the world and losing people's hearts loses it all.
I told them about my time at Tiananmen Square during the 1989 student demonstrations. “The CCP has committed unbelievable crimes,” I said. “The military is supposed to be used to repel foreign invasions, not for the bloody repression of our own citizens.
“Now people everywhere talk about quitting the CCP. If you are a member, you should withdraw for your safety.”
All of them agreed to quit and began applauding. Many tourists and security guards looked at us.
I said, “I wish you a good future. When people are good and just, their reward is happiness.”
As I turned to leave, I heard a young man say, “I sincerely thank you!”
What they did was a result of knowing the truth in their hearts. I was very happy for them.
A fellow practitioner and I once met three middle-aged men in a scenic area. From our conversation, we learned that two of them were judges in Zhejiang Province and the other was a manager of a private company.
They were all good friends who had come to go sightseeing.
The businessman kept talking about how bad the society had become and how difficult it was to run a business. He also said that Jiang Zemin, the former leader of the CCP, was a traitor to the country.
I told them that Jiang had committed heinous crimes when he began the persecution of Falun Gong. “Falun Gong practitioners are good people, who believe in truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance,” I added.
I also told them that Falun Gong has benefited millions of people in more than 100 countries, but, out of jealousy, Jiang gave orders to persecute Falun Gong.
They were shocked to hear that Jiang had spent a quarter of the gross national income to persecute Falun Gong and that ten of thousands of families had been separated, while innocent people were taken to forced labor camps or sentenced to prison. And then there were the reports of forced organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners.
“We knew about some of these things, but we had no choice due to the pressure from our superiors,” one of the judges said. “Cases were signed by the judge and his or her supervisor in the past, but now they are signed by the judge alone. So that means the judge will be responsible for the cases in the future. Because of that, they no longer dare to violate the law knowingly.”
“The courts should follow and enforce the law,” I said.
The other judge chimed in, “Some judges were under enormous pressure, so they passed sentences that went against their consciences in order to keep their jobs. But the situation should improve in time.”
I said, “You are all aware of these situations. If people do not punish the CCP, Heaven will. I encourage you withdraw from it quickly to be safe. We have the predestined relationship to meet today, so you should quit the CCP sincerely from your hearts. You can even use aliases.”
They all agreed to quit and did, indeed, choose a good future for themselves.
I have had many inspiring experiences talking to people about Falun Gong. During this process, I’ve felt deeply that people are discovering the true nature of the CCP and are choosing to stay away from it for their safety.
I have also seen that more people are willing to talk to Falun Gong practitioners and accept informational literature to learn the truth.
