Experiences While Telling People About Falun Gong

(Minghui.org) After retiring in 2019 I did not go out very much to talk to people about Falun Gong. I was fearful of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) persecution of Falun Gong practitioners and pursued security and comfort in my life. When the COVID-19 pandemic occurred in 2020 I was alerted to the urgency of informing people about Falun Gong, and I started going out to talk to people about the real situation of the pandemic and to tell them that Falun Gong can help save lives.

In the process of talking to people, I felt that those who understood the truth about Falun Gong sincerely cherished Dafa, and I felt Master’s compassionate protection at all times.

People are Awakening

I talked to a lady at a market fair about Falun Gong. She was able to understand the information, and she quit the CCP and its organizations. I turned around and wanted to talk to another lady. She told me, “I already know.” Then she almost begged me, “Can you give me a keepsake to remember Falun Gong?” She then said, “I had one before and I kept it with me all the time. I recently passed it on to a colleague. Please give me another one!” I gave her a “small keepsake” with Dafa information on it. She was very moved and accepted it with all her heart.

I handed a booklet about Falun Gong to a lady at a market fair. She said to me, “I have one at home, and I read it whenever I have time.” She then shared a story from her booklet about a man who was involved in a car accident. The man sincerely believed in his heart that Falun Dafa was good and averted any serious injuries. She then asked me for another booklet.

I met an elderly couple riding home on a three-wheeled electric scooter. As I handed a booklet to them, the man said excitedly, “We found you finally! We want to learn Falun Gong.”

I talked to a man in his forties, advising him to quit the CCP and its organizations. He seemed to be a government employee. I discussed reasons to quit the CCP with him and he listened intently. He told me before leaving, “Pay attention to your safety.”

Another time, I tried to advise an elderly man to quit the CCP and its organizations. He asked, “Are you giving away gifts?” He wanted a gift such as a cigarette lighter or the like, and said that he would quit the CCP if he got a gift. I told him, “We don’t give gifts. Our Dafa practitioners are telling people about Falun Gong and advising them to quit the CCP for their own safe future.” He then started shouting, and several other people nearby joined in with him, repeating the CCP’s lies. I told him, “You don’t have to believe what I am saying. We seem to have different beliefs.” At this time, a well-dressed gentleman passed by. He seemed to have a high social status, and drove an expensive car. He said to the elderly man, “You have different beliefs. You believe in what you want to and she believes what she wants.” He then got in his car and drove away. The elderly man was stunned. He walked away from the scene dejected, pushing his bicycle. The people who had joined the man in shouting out the CCP lies about Falun Gong were speechless.

Police Officers Admire Falun Gong

Several practitioners and I often go to a market in a neighboring county to share information about Falun Gong with others. On one occasion two practitioners noticed that a couple of police officers were watching them, so they left the area in a hurry. They separated and went in different directions, and the police did not follow them.

One of the practitioners left the marketplace and waited on the roadside for the other practitioner. She saw the two police officers coming her way with Falun Gong booklets in their hands. This practitioner quickly turned around to avoid being recognized by the officers. She heard the two officers talking to an elderly woman nearby, “What’s wrong with people practicing Falun Gong? It’s good for people to have faith!”

Master’s Compassionate Protection

In August of 2021, I went to talk to people about Falun Gong and the persecution on the side of a road leading to the market fair. After I finished talking to two people, I talked to a third person. The third person accepted my advice and agreed to quit the CCP and its organizations. Before he left, I gave him a keepsake with Dafa information and a small gourd engraved with, “Falun Dafa is good.” When I was about to leave the scene, a man suddenly rushed over and snatched my bag and shouted, “I am a police officer!” He then showed his police ID.

I tried to get my bag back, but he held on to it and would not let it go. He grabbed my hat with force and attempted to take my picture. I did not know what to do. The person I had just talked with shouted to me, “Run!” In panic, I threw off my high heel shoes and started running barefooted. I kept running until I could no longer see the officer.

Well-dressed, but barefoot, my appearance would likely attract attention. Since the police had taken my bag I did not have money with me to buy shoes. I tried to borrow a pair of slippers from the roadside shops but I was unable to get any. I then saw a fellow practitioner going to the market fair. I asked her to inform other practitioners that the police had snatched my bag and taken away my electric scooter.

I did not want to walk along the main road, as I wanted to avoid the police. However, on the side roads were shops and subdivisions with security guards at their entrances. I was not familiar with the neighborhood and could not find any other away to go. I was anxious. I knew I was noticeable and could be easily recognized. I was in dire need of a pair of shoes.

I saw a pair of men’s cloth shoes on the side of the road and I tried them on. They were large for my feet and were all wet from the rain the day before. But at least I was no longer barefoot. However, my dress was still very noticeable and could be recognized from afar.

I was troubled, but then I came upon a small door in an auto repair shop yard, that seemed to lead to the water canal outside of the town. I went straight through the door and indeed I came to the canal. I saw vegetable fields and a foot-wide trail passing through the fields. The trail was hidden. I then saw some small tree stumps not far from the trail and some shoes on the stumps. I picked a pair of red sneakers that fit my feet.

I walked along the trail until I reached its end in the reeds. I saw a small garbage station on the left-hand side, and on the ground of the station were two pairs of well-folded pants. I tried one pair on and it fit me well. The garbage station had a steel door leading to a subdivision. At this time, a middle-aged man came and opened the door from the subdivision side. He asked me if I was going through the door. I said, “Yes.” I then asked him if I could borrow the work uniform hanging in the garbage station. I promised that I would return it to him later. He agreed.

I put on the uniform, wore the red sneakers, and put on a straw hat that I found in the garbage dump. I also found an orange vest for a road sweeping worker in the garbage dump, and I put it on. Following the man, I went through the door into the subdivision. After locking up the door, he told me the way to a subdivision gate where I could exit the subdivision. I felt that he had come specifically to help me.

However, the gate was locked and guarded. While I was walking to the gate, two men came and asked the guard to exit. The guard opened the gate, I also exited the subdivision following them.

I walked to the side of the road. While wondering how to get home, a person riding an electric tricycle came. I waved to him and asked him to give me a ride home. He readily agreed. While we rode, he told me that he had come out to take a leisurely ride on his tricycle and met up with me by chance.

A few days later, I went to return the work uniform. I rode my electric bike to the garbage station along the winding trail. After returning the uniform to the station, I fell down while turning around on my bike. I then noticed that there were neither tree stumps nor the shoes that I saw last time. I realized that Master had helped me when I was in danger. I felt that Master is always watching over Dafa disciples and protecting us.

Thank you Master!
