Taking the Initiative to Clarify the Truth to the Public

In order to tell more people the truth about Falun Gong, I took the initiative to communicate better with the general public.

A few days ago, I was told that one of my fellow villagers had injured her arm and had been admitted to the hospital. She had just come home after having been discharged from the hospital. Although we had not had much contact in the past, I took this opportunity to go to her home to visit her. I explained the importance of quitting the CCP to her and she told me that she had never read any of the truth-clarification materials before, although they had been sent to her home. Instead, she had thrown them away. She did not realize how important it was to resign from the CCP until I talked to her. Both she and her husband voluntarily wrote statements stating that they were quitting all organizations relating to the CCP. She was very affected. She expressed her conviction that Falun Gong practitioners are all good people and promised to repeat the phrase, "Falun Dafa is good" in her heart for good luck in the future.

During a break from work in September, I attended a wedding banquet where I met an acquaintance. Although time was limited, I briefly talked to him about the necessity of quitting the CCP. He agreed to do so right away and I helped him write a statement resigning from the CCP and its affiliated organizations.

At dinner, seemingly by coincidence, I found myself seated at the same table with the head of the Security Department of my previous work unit. Before I had the chance to say anything, he raised his glass to me and respectfully asked me to forgive him about a matter in which he had acted against my will. (He had coordinated between the 610 Office and the local police station to force me into a brainwashing center. He is no longer the head of the Security Department). I talked to him about the matter and said that I, like other Falun Gong practitioners, have no enemies and that I would not hold a grudge against him because of this matter. At the same time, I took the chance to talk to him about quitting the CCP. He asked me to help him write a statement to resign from the CCP and its affiliated organizations. He also told me that he would no longer participate in deeds that were unjust.

Through these examples, I learned that Falun Gong practitioners all have opportunities to save sentient beings no matter where they are. We should reach out to all the people around us and clarify the truth to them,

Lastly, let us remember what Master said in "Teaching and Explaining the Fa at the Metropolitan New York Fa Conference," "I hope that every Dafa disciple won't overemphasize the form of things. Your own cultivation, your own improvement, your validating the Fa amidst the evil, saving sentient beings, and steadfastly doing well going down the path that you should take are what's most important."
