(Minghui.org) I set up a Fa study group and practice site at my home in early 2004. Only two practitioners attended at first, then the number gradually increased to eight.

The eight of us have persisted in studying the Fa and doing the exercises together for over ten years. We watch and listen to Master’s lectures and exercise instruction videos, constantly exchange ideas and understandings of the Fa, and share cultivation experiences. This has helped us improve tremendously in our cultivation. We also memorize and transcribe the Fa writings.

Many times over the years, I have dreamed that Master was with us while we study the Fa. I feel that every profound principle of the Fa touches my heart. These feelings have enhanced my appreciation of Dafa’s limitless grace and wonder.

Our study group consists of elderly and middle-aged practitioners, and we’ve set up four materials production sites so far. Some of us produce copies of Minghui Weekly and other truth clarification materials. Some work on producing the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, while others create a variety of informational materials on CDs and DVDs.

We have been diligent in studying the Fa, memorizing the Fa, and transcribing the Fa, to ensure that we are assimilating into the Fa. We never miss an opportunity to go out to tell people about Falun Dafa and the persecution.

For the past decade, we have experienced no interruptions to our group study and exercise site. We all work hard to cherish and carefully maintain this group environment.

As for myself, I try my best to strictly adhere to Master's requirements, and strive to constantly cooperate and coordinate well with fellow practitioners, to ensure that together we succeed in fulfilling the vows we made before coming to this world.

Master says:

“Validate the Fa with rationality, clarify the truth with wisdom, spread the Fa and save people with mercy—this is establishing the mighty virtue of an Enlightened Being.” (“Rationality” from Essentials for Further Advancement II)

Saving People is Our Main Priority

I started talking to friends and family, the people closest to me, about Falun Dafa, and to persuade them to renounce their memberships in the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliates. The majority of my friends, relatives, former classmates, and colleagues have quit the CCP after talking with me.

On one occasion, I took a DVD player to a restaurant, so my old classmates could watch the staged Self-Immolation incident on Tiananmen Square, recordings of Minghui programs, and other truth clarification DVDs.

Two years ago, I helped a classmate quit the CCP. She was crossing the street on her way home after picking up her grandson from kindergarten, when a car ran over her foot. She promptly shouted, “Falun Dafa is good!” Her foot was okay, but the driver was petrified. He stopped the car and rushed over, offered her 1,000 yuan in compensation, and apologized profusely.

I link saving sentient beings to every aspect of my life. Whether attending functions for special occasions, parties, weddings, or get togethers with former classmates, I always put clarifying the facts to save sentient beings as the first priority, and will seize every opportunity to hand out informational materials about Falun Dafa, and software to circumvent the Internet censorship in China.

Talking to people face-to-face sometimes poses certain risks, but under Master’s meticulous care and protection, I have always been able to come out unharmed, and many times even managed to help them quit the CCP.

People Are Waiting for Our Informational Materials

On August 6, 2010, I was telling people about Falun Dafa in a shop selling gold, when someone reported me to the authorities. I ended up being taken to the police station. I asked Master in my heart over and over again to give me strength and wisdom to clarify the facts to the police. In the end, the officers fought over each other to take a closer look at the informational materials I had with me.

One police officer actually read out aloud the words, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!”

From 9:00 a.m. to a little after 1:00 p.m., when I returned home safely, I did not cooperate with the police, nor did I divulge any information harmful to Dafa.

Master says:

“Fa-rectification is sure to succeed, and Dafa disciples are sure to achieve Consummation. When Heaven dictates change, no one can stop it! The Fa’s rectification of the cosmos and the re-creation of heaven and earth are coming to a close. The reformation of the vast firmament is charging forward rapidly and powerfully. What do a handful of wretched creatures above or on the earth amount to? The mighty virtue of Dafa disciples gloriously illuminates the universe. What gods and man alike have awaited and worried over has arrived. Save your sentient beings, fulfill your great prehistoric vows, and make good on the pledges you made!” (“Greetings” from The Essentials of Diligent Progress Vol. III)

When we started clarifying the facts in the market, we were able to help 20 to 30 people quit the CCP.

I once spoke to a middle-aged man selling vegetables. I asked him if he had heard about quitting the CCP. I explained, “It means severing your relationship with the CCP and all its affiliates. This is for the sake of your personal safety.”

He replied, “I didn’t have much education, and only joined the Young Pioneers. My name is Sun Jie. You’re right, there are too many disasters these days, and I think the CCP is responsible for them. Please help me quit the Party. Thank you so much.”

I responded, “You don’t have to thank me. I wish you a good life, good luck, and blessings.” I handed him some truth clarification brochures and a Shen Yun Performing Arts DVD, then left.

A moment later, he caught up with me and asked for more brochures and DVDs. He said, “My neighbors and friends would all love to have them.”

Another time at the market, many people, from several stalls, were trying to talk to us at once. One of them said, “It’s not easy for you guys. You must pay attention to safety. Just now, there was a horde of dogs (referring to the police) about… What you’re all doing, you’re doing for our sake, so that we have lives of peace and safety. You’re willing to lay down your lives, not afraid of being arrested, disregarding your personal safety, to help us quit the CCP…”

We listened, and were very moved. We only felt we still hadn’t done enough. On the road of Fa-rectification, there is only the need to save more people.

There was also a man selling toiletries. Every time he saw us, he was very warm and friendly. We helped him quit the Party and its affiliates.

He said, “The CCP is way too rotten. People are full of resentment. They feel angry but don’t dare to speak up. I really like reading your materials. Every word is from the heart. When you have more, please make sure to give them to me. A few days ago, the police were out checking cars. They looked into mine and saw the Dafa materials. They asked me if I believe it. I answered them, ‘Of course I believe it! Nowadays, everybody says that the CCP is very bad. It’s getting so unpopular. Doesn’t that indicate that it’s about to end?’”

Learning Technology To Help Other Practitioners

With materials production sites blooming everywhere, there’s a severe shortage of technical expertise, and computer technicians are in especially short supply. We can no longer continue to lean on fellow practitioners who are technology savy, since installing computer systems has become a priority, and these people are very busy.

I started learning about and participating in installations in 2011, and have since set up computer systems for individual practitioners as well as for several materials sites.

Dafa always gives us the necessary wisdom. I’m in my sixties, but based on my trust in Master and Dafa, along with personal perseverance, I’ve succeeded in overcoming thoughts of anxiety and actual difficulties on this unfamiliar path.

My Family Benefits from Dafa

My husband had a serious alcohol problem before I started practicing Falun Dafa. All of the mirrors in our home had been broken, and our sofa was hacked up. It was very difficult for me to cultivate in such an environment.

After Dafa came into my life, my husband became a different person. He quit smoking and drinking, and his bad temper disappeared. He supports me in my Dafa activities, Fa study, and exercises, as well as my work setting up materials production sites.

Our son is the only child of this generation in the family. Our daughter-in-law has not had a son or daughter after seven years of marriage. Many family members, relatives, and friends kept persuading me to let my son divorce my daughter-in-law over this issue.

After a while, I began to feel the pressure, but I held on to my belief in Master and Dafa, and I straightened my human notions. During the eighth year of their marriage, my daughter-in-law gave birth to a fair and plump daughter.

Master has picked me up from hell and cleansed me. He has nurtured and tempered me. Whenever I think of Master’s merciful grace, my eyes fill with tears.

What can I not let go? I will do well the three things in order to live up to Master's compassionate salvation, be worthy of the sentient beings waiting for me to save, and fulfill my sacred prehistoric vow.
