(Minghui.org) Many of the fellow practitioners in our area are quite elderly, being in their 80s and 90s. After suffering repeated harassment by the communist regime over the past two decades, many of them stopped distributing Dafa materials or talking to people face to face a long time ago.

Since they studied Master’s new article “How Humankind Came To Be,” however, many of these senior practitioners have changed a great deal. They became motivated after seeing that Master is teaching the Fa to the world and directly saving people himself. They developed more righteous thoughts, recovered from sickness karma, and shared Master’s new article with their relatives and friends.

We came to a few realizations regarding Master’s article. Actively distributing Master’s new article was a way to pay our respects to Master and all sentient beings. We believe that Master’s new article can awaken all beings who still have goodness in their hearts. We also see the article as a good opportunity for practitioners ourselves to make breakthroughs in our cultivation and step out from the shadow of persecution.

Some elderly practitioners said they developed a sense of urgency. They realized that they do not have much time left, and want to use their abilities to the fullest to save more people.

Over the last month, the elderly practitioners studied the new article every day. They said that the more they studied, the more righteous thoughts they had and the more they improved their xinxing. And the more they improved their xinxing, the more they could appreciate Master’s great compassion and magnanimous grace.

One practitioner said that when she handed out the article, people read it as soon as they got it—as if they had been waiting for a long time. Some said they would take a good look at it when they got home. People have truly been awaiting for this day for a very long time.
