(Minghui.org) After the pandemic broke out suddenly two years ago, practitioners further realized the importance and urgency of their responsibilities. Locally, the government blocked our streets and neighborhoods but allocated time for us to go out to shop. I took this as an opportunity to go out with practitioners. We put up posters wherever we could and told people we encountered the facts about Falun Dafa. They were all very concerned about the pandemic. Most of them listened to what we said and quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. This encouraged us to go out every day.
We met a distant relative of my husband’s one day. He was the chief of a police station. I hurried over and said hello to him. I could tell his health was not good. I asked him, “How is your health?” He told me about his illnesses. I clarified the truth to him, and he was very receptive. He also quit the CCP. I gave him some leaflets, which he gladly took. The next time we met, he greeted me happily. He looked energetic, as though he had become a new person. I thanked Master in my heart for saving him.
One day a few fellow practitioners and I went to a village to clarify the truth. We divided into teams of two and went in different directions. The village was on a hill, and was sparsely populated; there were only two or three houses across a long distance. We visited four houses. Most of the people we met listened to the facts about Dafa and quit the CCP organizations.
One house we went to had many middle-aged to elderly women sitting in a room. We gave them leaflets and clarified the truth about Dafa. While everyone was listening, one woman around 80 years old said, “You are anti-Party practicing Falun Gong. My son is the village Party secretary. I am calling him to arrest you guys.” We tried to calm her, but she would not listen. Some of the people there listened to us and quit the CCP organizations. But some did not.
We did not pay attention to the old woman and continued on to another house. We met her again on our way back. She blocked our way at the entrance of the road near the bottom of the hill and would not let us pass. We clarified the truth to her while sending forth righteous thoughts. She would not budge.
One practitioner said, “We cannot yield to her because she will be committing crimes against Dafa.” We saw that the slope next to the road was steep but passable, so we jumped off it and left. I saw the righteous thoughts of that fellow practitioner at the critical moment in this incident: One cannot let a sentient being commit crimes against Dafa.
One day we went to a farmer’s market to clarify the truth. It was a day when children had no school, so we clarified the truth to the children. We got over 30 of them to quit the CCP’s youth organizations they had joined. As a result, I developed an attachment to zealotry. But I quickly sensed my mistake, grabbed it, and eliminated it. I knew that it was Master who saved the sentient beings, and we needed to thank Master.
Two practitioners and I went out to clarify the truth one day, and we met a young officer lady. One practitioner went over to tell her facts about Falun Dafa, while another practitioner and I sent forth righteous thoughts. The lady listened intently. When we were almost done, another woman suddenly came and pulled the lady away without saying anything. I felt bad about it at the time. We really wanted to save her! We went back the way we came. After a short distance, we saw the young officer lady coming after us by herself when we looked back. I enlightened that Master saw my thought of wanting to save her and arranged to have her follow us. I rushed to meet her and, because the other practitioner had already talked to her, I got her to quit the CCP quickly.
One day while on my way to Fa study, I had angina and an upset stomach. So I rested for a while. I knew in my heart that it was the old forces interfering with me and that I could not let it interfere. I sent forth righteous thoughts and continued to walk toward the fellow practitioner’s home. I hoped that fellow practitioners would send forth righteous thoughts for me when I arrived.
I met another practitioner as I was about to arrive at the fellow practitioner’s home. She said hello to me. At that moment, my stomach stopped hurting, as though nothing had happened. I told her about it. She said it meant the old forces wanted to prevent me from going to the Fa-study group. Indeed, I had not gone to the Fa-study group for a long time, even though I went out to clarify the truth every day. I will do the three things well in the future.
I have practiced Falun Dafa for 15 years, and I have gone through all sorts of tests. I was jailed and hassled at work, and my family at home made things hard for me. At times it felt too difficult to go on. Through Fa-study and with the help of fellow practitioners, I gradually increased my righteous thoughts. I went from not daring to face tribulations to facing them calmly, from not daring to clarify the truth to persuading people to withdraw from the CCP face-to-face. In doing so, I stumbled left and right, yet I made it through despite the frequent falls. Master has poured so much effort into this. Without Master and Dafa, I could not have taken a single step. I have no reason not to do what I should do. In the limited time that remains, I must cultivate myself and save more people.
