Several years ago I came to know a judge when my relatives were involved in a lawsuit. My sister (who was not a practitioner) and I went to consult him regarding legal issues. In our conversation, I felt the judge looked very kind and honest. When I left, I handed him a Falun Dafa truth-clarifying leaflet and asked him to look at it, because it would be good for him.

The next time we met, the judge graciously thanked me. He told me that when the suppression of Falun Gong started on July 20, 1999, he had participated in it. When Falun Gong books were confiscated, he kept a copy for himself out of curiosity. After reading it over, he didn't think there wa's anything wrong with the book. Still, under the unprecedented pressure of Jiang's regime, and without an environment for cultivation, he never learned how to do Falun Gong exercises. He knew that one of his neighbors practiced Falun Gong. Because of his occupation, however, the neighbor dared not have contact with him. He also stayed away from the neighbor for fear of bringing the neighbor any trouble. The judge had been struggling with the dilemma of whether or not to practice. In the end, he gave up on this thought. When he accepted the truth-clarifying material I gave him, he was happy and carefully finished reading it. This time we had a long talk, and I told him as much as I could about the truth and about cultivation. He said he was determined to start practicing and would not give it up.

Since then, as Fa-rectification has progressed, he has deepened his study and practice. Following Teacher's guidance, he has taken advantage of his work environment and special occupation to rationally carry out the Three Things in this Fa-rectification period'.
