(Minghui.org) The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been persecuting Falun Dafa (also known as Falun Gong) since July 1999. Thanks to Falun Dafa practitioners’ truth-clarification efforts over the past 23 years, many people have seen the true colors of the CCP and come to appreciate the goodness of Falun Dafa. Below are some stories that we recently encountered.

Village Head: I Wish You Had Given Me This Information Earlier

Practitioner Fang went to a village to debunk the CCP’s slanderous propaganda about Falun Dafa. She ran into the village head and helped him quit the CCP organizations. She also gave him some Falun Dafa materials.

After some time, Fang went there again and ran into the village head a second time.“Have you gotten a chance to read what I gave you?” she asked.

“Of course! And they were really good,” he replied. “If everyone followed Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, wouldn’t the world be a much better place?

“I wish you had given those things to me earlier. But at any rate, you can come to this village whenever you want and feel free to talk to people about Falun Dafa. I’ll keep watch [to alert you to the police]. Please come here often.”

School Principal: I Want to Read Dafa Books

Practitioner Chun has a relative who recently retired as an elementary school principal. She had told him about Falun Dafa in the past, but he paid little attention. When Chun visited him after his retirement, she gave him a booklet with information about Dafa. “Please read this,” she said. “It is very interesting.”

Several months later, Chun visited him again to see if he had read the booklet.

“I read it three times!” remarked the retired principal. “It was well written, factual, logical, and thorough. I can see many talents in Falun Dafa practitioners.

“The principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance are universal values. Your Master is truly great. I want to read Dafa books,” he added.

Elderly Man Waiting in the Cold for Dafa Brochures

On a freezing winter day, Fan ran into a man in his 70s and talked to him about Falun Dafa. The man said, “I understand it now. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) destroys traditional Chinese culture and persecutes innocent citizens. Falun Dafa teaches us to be good people and your Master came to save people in the chaotic world.”

He agreed to quit the Party organizations and said, “I will keep in mind ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’ By the way, do you have anything else for me to read?”

“I already gave out everything I brought with me. But I have more at home,” replied Fan.

“No problem. I can wait here,” he said.

Because Fan lived far away, it took him quite a while to get the materials and return. Seeing the elderly man standing in the freezing cold, shivering, Fan was touched. When he shared this story with other practitioners later, he said, “Many people are eager to hear the facts and be saved. We cannot slack off.”

Street Vendor: Please Help My Brother

Ya is a street vendor. A practitioner once gave her some informational materials about Falun Dafa. She like them a lot and was impressed by the stories of traditional culture.

One day, Ya found the practitioner who had given her the brochures and said, “These were well written. Now I know what life is all about and that good is rewarded and evil incurs retribution.” She said she had quit the CCP organizations, but she was worried about her late brother.

“My brother did many bad things and died young. I am afraid his soul will suffer in hell,” she said. “I saw in your information that we can help deceased family members quit the CCP organizations. Can you help him?” She also offered the practitioner 1,000 yuan to print more materials so that more people could break away from the CCP regime for a better future.

Middle-Aged Woman: I Finally Understand Everything

I went out to distribute Minghui calendars last winter when I saw a woman leaving a hospital. She appeared to be very worried. I offered her a calendar, but she shook her head.

I asked, “Have you ever heard about quitting the CCP organizations?”

Looking tired, she replied, “Yes, but I am still sick, which is why I have just seen a doctor.”

I realized that she hadn’t really understood Falun Dafa, so I began to talk about the most basic facts, explaining that Falun Dafa is a meditation system based on the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and that it has helped many people stay healthy and improve their character. The CCP regime, on the other hand, promotes hatred, brutality, and lies, so it has always targeted innocent people, including Falun Dafa practitioners.

I said, “People quit the CCP organizations to avoid sinking with the regime when the time comes for the CCP to be brought to justice. In fact, keeping in mind ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance’ will also bring you blessings.”

“Oh, I finally understand. Thank you!” She said smiling, and took a Minghui calendar.

Question Answered

I went out again the next day to distribute calendars. An elderly man who appeared to be well-educated was taking a walk. I noted one of his legs did not work well and he was looking for a place to sit down. I found a place for him and we began to chat. I talked about Falun Dafa and offered him a Minghui calendar, but he said he didn’t want it.

I did not know why he was not receptive to what I said, but I answered his questions. After a while, he asked, “Your Master came to save people and he lives in the United States. Why did so many people in the US still die of the coronavirus?” It was not until then that I saw why he was doubtful about Dafa.

I said that the United States has helped the CCP become a major economic entity in the world over the past few decades. However, it failed to change the CCP’s vicious nature and was even influenced by the communist ideology, resulting in many chaotic phenomena that deviated from traditional values. As a matter of fact, the CCP is using its clout to push its communist agenda around the world.

That is why, I explained, that many of the things we see today are not accidental. On the other hand, Falun Dafa and the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance teach one to be a better person. It is important for people to support the innocent, embrace traditional values, and reject the CCP that has been harming Chinese people and now threatens the world.

He smiled and said, “It seems you know many things. I understood it now.”

He said he was born into a wealthy Buddhist family and had gotten a good education. He graduated college before the Cultural Revolution and used his technical skills to earn a living his entire life. Many members of his extended family were once persecuted by the CCP. Because of that, no one in the family joined the CCP organizations.

“We need more people like you who can tell right and wrong,” I said sincerely. He accepted a Minghui calendar and said he would look into it for more information.

All these stories remind us of the urgency to help people know the facts and be saved. Master said:

“You are the hope for humankind. You must do well. You must take on your responsibility. You must go save sentient beings, so that you can consummate yourselves and this undertaking will not be in vain." (“Fa Teaching at the 2016 New York Fa Conference,” Collected Fa Teachings, Vol. XIV)
