(Minghui.org) Several practitioners and I work for the same employer, and we’ve been talking to our colleagues about Falun Dafa and the persecution over the years. Thus, most of our colleagues have positive thoughts about the practice and have renounced their membership in the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). When Master Li’s (Falun Dafa’s founder) article “Why There is Mankind” was published, we thought of sharing it with our colleagues.
I came to work early with copies of the article and gave one to a male coworker. I said, “This article is written by Master Li Hongzhi. It’s the first time he’s written an article for non-practitioners. Please take a look at it.”
Another colleague named Sung came to work shortly after. I handed her a copy, and she started to read it. Then Zhang arrived and I gave her a copy, I said, “This is the first time Master Li is sending a message to the world.”
Master said,
“For humans to accumulate blessings and virtue in life is to build up and pave the way for returning to heaven, which is key; it is not for exchanging for the momentary happiness in one human life!” (“Why There Is Mankind,” Team Blue Translation)
Zhang asked why Master Li said those words at the end. I explained that most people came from heaven and are from high levels. Sung interjected, “This is what you [referring to me] often say!”
The male coworker then chimed in, saying he had carefully read the article twice, just to make sure he understood it. His sincere attitude touched me, because he can be conceited and often criticizes the articles he reviews.
Minghui Weekly published Master’s lecture in Issue 938, and I decided to distribute it to more colleagues. I started with those whom I have a good rapport with and who know about Dafa. This way they can share it with others. One colleague took two copies for his family.
Lin, a colleague who is close to my male coworker, dropped by one day. I gave Lin a copy of Minghui Weekly and told him, “Here is an article written by Master Li for everyone to read. His lectures were only for Dafa practitioners before, but this time he’s written to non-practitioners. Please read it and share it with your family.” He replied in a humorous way, “Oh really! So I will go up one level?!” Everyone in the office burst into laughter.
Three coworkers told Lin that Falun Dafa practitioners at the company didn’t catch the COVID-19 virus, and one of them explained the health benefits of doing meditation. Lin seemed to be convinced and said he would read it.
I also gave Master’s lecture to coworkers that I saw in the hallways and balconies, and said it’s a message from Master Li to mankind. Most of them accepted a copy, and some said they would read it as soon as they got back to their office.
I felt Master was helping me distribute the lecture, as I ran into colleagues whom I rarely saw. I went to the cafeteria to pick up food one evening. On the way back, I ran into a colleague working the night shift. Although we worked in the same building, we rarely saw each other. He was on his way to the cafeteria, so I took the opportunity to give him a copy of Minghui Weekly.
The deputy leader of my department changed his schedule not long ago and only comes to work once a week. I’ve given him information and talked to him many times about Falun Dafa. I saved him a copy of Master’s article, but I wasn’t sure which day he was working.
I happened to hear his voice as I was walking through the courtyard one afternoon. I turned around and saw him walking out of the building. I went up to greet him and handed him a copy of Minghui Weekly and told him about Master’s article. He took it and said with sincerity, “You’re doing good deeds every day!” He also agreed to share it with his family.
I often sensed Master’s immense compassion and saw people’s positive reaction when they received the article. Many of them read it with eagerness. Their attitude encourages me to do the three things well.
