Today, besides the Iraqi war, SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) has become a focal point for the whole world. However, open coverage of SARS has been suppressed by the Chinese government, and only after the international community imposed pressure have reports on SARS been exposed in Mainland China. According to various sources, there are still many facts and circumstances being concealed. Even though this is an important issue involving human life, the Chinese government still resorts to deception. One can't help but wonder how much of the truth China's government-controlled media ever tells?

To Dafa practitioners however, especially those overseas, such an incident is a great talking point to clarify the truth to people in China. Recently, while I was talking with friends in China on the phone, I mentioned this subject, and I noticed that not many people had paid attention to it - as if it was far removed from them. The fundamental reason is that they have no access to the news and do not know the severity of SARS. While I told them about what I had heard overseas and about the status of SARS in China, and the precautions they could take against it, etc., I followed the train of thought naturally to start talking about how they consider the SARS cover-up to evaluate the content of all newscasts in China. In the course of our conversation, I mentioned the Falun Gong situation. Our entire talk was easy and smooth, and the other person picked up things very quickly.

Hopefully, more overseas practitioners can take this opportunity to pick up the phone to call friends and relatives in China. If, when picking up the phone, you feel that your heart is still obstructed, or that your heart is not in the right place, you can first consider telling your friends and relatives about what overseas newscasts report about SARS, telling them to take necessary steps to prevent infection, and telling them to pay attention to their health. These are all natural and normal in human relationships. Perhaps during the conversation, you will find the right way to clarify the truth about Falun Gong.
