(Minghui.org) I have told many taxi drivers in my city about Falun Gong and their reactions vary.
Some drivers kept quiet, but as soon as they heard that terminating their memberships with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and affiliated organizations could save their lives, they immediately agreed to quit. Other drivers listened, chatted with me and agreed to quit the CCP. They said they would tell others about the persecution of Falun Gong.
Some drivers were touched after they had listened to me talk about Falun Gong and refused to charge me to show their appreciation. Then, there were drivers who were fearful. They disagreed with and even argued with me. I would send righteous thoughts and hoped that they could have a chance to hear about Falun Gong from other practitioners.
Out of many stories, I selected three to share:
A taxi driver that I invited to come to my home for dinner refused to come. I was touched by his integrity and chatted with him. To my surprise, he knew about Falun Gong issues, including the organ harvesting from living practitioners. I asked if he had quit the CCP. He said not yet and asked me how to quit the Young Pioneers and the Youth League, two affiliated associates of the CCP.
I told him that I could help him quit with an assumed name. He gave me his real name and said that he knew practitioners were all good people. I told him that the CCP was based on violence, which was opposite to the Falun Gong principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. If our entire nation practiced Falun Gong, the CCP could no longer fool the Chinese people.
The driver slapped the wheel and shouted: “I believe in Falun Gong and that it will protect me, for sure.” The driver asked me: “You just said Falun Gong believes in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, and the CCP believes in violence?” I told him that the CCP believed in evil, struggle, and fighting. He repeated my words in a low voice and sighed: “What a big predestined relationship I have!”
It was a snow day and I was in a hurry to get to work, but could not find a taxi. A driver offered a free ride, but joked that I could give him a million yuan or a BMW. He was a driving instructor for big cars and he was very upset with the vicious behavior of police. I told him to quit the CCP, which could save his life and was a greater treasure than a million yuan or a BMW. The driver instantly agreed to quit and thanked me.
I saw a CCP party flag and one national flag behind his windproof glass. I told him that one of my relatives was also a driver. His car had this flag and was scratched by another car. A fortune teller told him that the flag was dyed with blood and was soaked with death, which brought him bad luck.
I also told him that the CCP had launched all kinds of political movements and had persecuted 80 million Chinese to death. The flag was dyed with those people’s blood and could bring bad luck to the car owner. The driver immediately said he wanted to throw them away. I said I could help him. He gave me the two flags. I took them, got out of the car, and destroyed them near my work unit.
I got into a taxi one evening and saw a man in the back seat. I talked to the driver about Falun Gong, but did not mention that I was a practitioner. The driver agreed to quit the CCP. I thought the person who sat behind me also heard what I said and he should not be left out. So I asked his opinion, did he also agree to quit or not.
The man said he was a policeman with the Domestic Security Division. I held no fear and continued: “Must you guys join the Party then?” He smiled and said he only joined the Young Pioneers and the Youth League. I offered him an assumed name and he also quit.
I also met quite a few taxi drivers who had already quit the CCP. They told me there was one elderly woman who kept taking a taxi and with her help, they all quit the CCP. They all recognized her and remembered what she told them: “Falun Gong is good; Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!”
