(Minghui.org) One of our local Falun Dafa practitioners was reported to the police recently, for clarifying the truth to people, which was sad. I would like share some personal thoughts regarding this issue.
Master said, “The greatest responsibility Dafa disciples have, aside from cultivating themselves, is that of saving lives.” (Teaching the Fa in Canada, 2006)
As Dafa practitioners, we all know that it is our responsibility to do the three things and do them well. Saving sentient beings is our mission.
I truly believe that all genuinely cultivating Dafa practitioners are working hard. However, the mentality one has in saving people becomes a key issue.
To avoid the evil taking advantage of my loopholes, before clarifying the truth, I try to rectify myself and see if I have any attachments.
I send righteous thoughts to eliminate any bad elements and make my mind clear.
For example, I was clarifying the truth to a person one day, and he warned me by saying “Don’t say that, if you continue, you will be arrested.”
I responded calmly, “I won’t be arrested. Good will be rewarded and evil will meet with evil returns. I am here to save people and I am doing a good thing, accumulating virtue.”
He then said, “Thanks for letting me know there is such a saying.”
There was another incident in 2020, when the COVID pandemic slowed down and the community lockdown was loosening. I went to a community building to distribute pandemic prevention flyers.
Although there were people at a construction site in front of the building, I decided to distribute flyers to each unit on every floor. I heard footsteps below when I was at the fourth unit on the third floor.
I stood there and a man came up. He pointed to the flyer at the door and asked, “Did you distribute those flyers? ” “Yes,” I said.
He then said, “ Now you can’t leave. This is a business building, and someone outside reported you.” He started pulling out his phone.
I stayed calm and said, “Have you read the flyer? Now the epidemic is so severe that even the government has posted many notices telling people to prevent infection. I am doing something similar.”
He persisted, “I don’t care. No matter what, you won't get away today; we will capture you.”
I told him, “I won’t run because I am doing a good thing. Why am I here? I am here to save you. Otherwise, I would not be here at all on such a hot day.” I was not afraid at the time.
It seemed that my words touched him, and his arrogance disappeared. He murmured, “Maybe I should do some good thing, too. You can go now.”
“Thank you,” I said. “You have done a great deed for yourself. Next time, don’t make a big deal when you see people distributing such flyers.”
He accompanied me downstairs and we exited the building. Outside, people asked, “What is she doing?”
He said, “Nothing much. She’s posting small advertisements.”
I thank Master for helping me resolve this ordeal. Saving sentient beings is something that has never happened in history.
Master has handed over such an arduous task, and we must use righteous thoughts cultivated from Dafa to complete our mission.
Since ancient times, evil have never suppressed righteousness. My understanding is that whenever we encounter interference in saving people, we must not be afraid, and we must firmly believe that what we do is the most righteous.
Our righteous thoughts can restrain the evil and dissolve the persecution.
