Reaching out to People During the Pandemic

(Minghui.org) After reading the following Fa teaching, I realized that I couldn’t stay home just because the streets were nearly empty during the pandemic. I knew I should think about other ways to reach out to people.

Master said:

“Once the current time period is over, the first large-scale process of weeding out sentient beings will begin. For a Fa-rectification period Dafa disciple, personal liberation is not the goal of cultivation: when you came, saving sentient beings was your great aspiration, and that is the responsibility and mission history has bestowed upon you in Fa-rectification.” (“Let Go of Human Attachments and Save the World’s People,” The Essentials of Diligent Progress III)

I decided to hand out truth clarification booklets to local residents. When people read the booklets, they have an opportunity to understand the truth. I delivered the booklets daily to households in two buildings. Every household received one copy until I had visited the entire community. I did not hold any fear—instead I felt relaxed. I knew Master was beside me and protecting me. I thanked Master for his help.

After I finished handing them out in one building I walked downstairs and noticed a pile of booklets on the floor. I saw two elementary age school children, and I asked them how the booklets got there. They said they took the booklets from each door. I told them, “These booklets can save people, but you removed them. Now the grandparents, aunts, and uncles cannot see the truth so they can not be saved! Would you please put them back!” They understood and immediately put the booklets back on the doors they took them from. I clarified the truth to them and they were very happy to withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party Young Pioneer’s organization, and said, “Thank you!” I told them to thank Master. They said, “Thank you, Master!”

After finishing the community area near me, I decided to go to the largest supermarket and paste truth-clarification stickers on the walls. The market area has five tall buildings, each with about 20 to 30 floors.

I am almost 70 years old and very short. Climbing the stairs in a tall building is a tremendous effort for an ordinary person my age, but I easily walk up and down the stairs. I know that Master helped me. If the building door was locked, I used my regular key, touched the lock, and the door opened. I could go inside the building and post truth-clarification stickers.

Master said,

“There is no affect between master and discipleThe Buddha’s grace remolds Heaven and EarthWhen disciples have ample righteous thoughtsMaster has the power to turn back the tide”(“The Master-Disciple Bond,” Hong Yin Vol. II)

I am an elderly lady—so I know that Master is doing everything for me. After I finished distributing booklets to the entire community, I paid my respects in front of Master’s portrait to show my appreciation and thank him. I know that I’m still far from reaching Master’s requirements. I will study the Fa diligently, improve upon my cultivation, and do the three things well. I will fulfill my responsibilities and follow Master to my original home.
