(Minghui.org) Over the past 20-odd years, in order to help people no longer be deceived by the lies of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), Falun Dafa practitioners in China and abroad have used all kinds of ways to clarify the truth about Falun Dafa. After they understand the facts about the practice, people in China then share the information with those they know so that more people can distance themselves from the CCP and stay safe. The following are several examples of such kind-hearted people and their reactions after they woke up to the truth of Falun Gong.
Ms. Zhiyong, who was born in the 70s, quit the CCP organizations before 2016. She told practitioners, “I really respect and admire you. You have kept going for so many years!
“I’m very pleased to get your truth-clarification information. I must say that I really admire you. I first heard about Falun Dafa in my early 20s and didn’t know much about it then—I only saw that there were many people practicing the exercises. Later, the practice was persecuted and I heard a lot of rumors against it. I was in China and I didn’t know the truth about it, but I didn’t attack you like the propaganda urged people to do. I thought that everyone should have freedom of belief.”
Ms. Zhiyong often visits with like-minded friends and meets with them regularly to share what they have seen and heard, including the truth about Falun Gong. “I spend a lot of time every day learning more about Falun Gong, and I haven‘t watched the Chinese government’s CCTV news broadcasts for many years. I want to have a clear understanding of what’s happening in the world.”
Ms. Feng was born into a family already in the CCP system in Hubei Province. When she was young, she believed the Party’s lies and propaganda. But by the late 1980s, she had come to realize that the CCP was the biggest demon in the world. “The CCP says all the good things but does all the evil things, and it cannibalizes people without leaving the bones,” she said to a practitioner.
Ms. Feng enjoys reading practitioners’ truth-clarification materials. She knows what is happening in China and has gained a clear understanding of how to stay safe and protect her assets. She believes that gods and Buddhas do exist and often silently recites, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
Ms. Feng told practitioners, “I feel extremely fortunate to be able to learn the truth about Falun Dafa. Its practitioners are like an open book for me, and I’m truly grateful. I sense that you are full of selfless kindness and perseverance. You’re truly extraordinary. We’re very grateful for what you are doing to help us inside China. Thank you very much!”
Ms. Feng shares the facts she has learned with her family members and friends. Her brother-in-law, her colleagues at work, and those she’s gotten to know via online chats now all know the truth. They also enjoy reading practitioners’ truth-clarification materials, and some of them have also quit the CCP organizations.
She said, “Nowadays, smart people in China should learn not to listen to or believe whatever the CCP says. Haven’t the Chinese suffered enough from Mao’s time till now? We should really think deeply and not be deceived anymore! I really hope that more people in China will soon awaken.”
Ms. Meng, who was born in the 70s, lives in Shandong Province. She has worked in the CCP system for many years and knows very well how ruthless the CCP can be. She treasures the Falun Dafa truth-clarification materials.
“A number of my family members started practicing Falun Gong before or after the CCP began to persecute Falun Gong. They are all very good people. Why does the CCP government persecute them? Isn’t it a good thing that people believe in gods and Buddhas?!”
After reading more truth-clarification materials, she started to think more deeply about the crimes the CCP has committed against its own people, both in the past and in recent times and became aware of the evil nature of the CCP. She has since quit the CCP organizations.
Ms. Meng said that sometimes when she told people the facts, they would ask, “What difference does it make whether we know the truth or not? What can you change after all?”
“I didn't know how to answer such a question in the past,” Ms. Meng said, “But after reading the Falun Dafa materials, I gained wisdom and I would say to them, “Why do we check the weather forecast even though there is nothing we can do to change it? The same applies to us knowing the truth!”
Jingge lives in Beijing. He said to a practitioner who called him from abroad, “To be honest, I know you all work very hard. It’s really precious for us here in China to get such truthful information. In fact, you are helping those in China who have been brainwashed by the CCP to reshape their lives.
“For example, I was born into a family full of CCP members, and both my parents joined the army during the so-called ‘War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.’ When they returned, they worked in government agencies in Beijing, and I was brought up with the CCP ideology. I also served in the army, and my head was filled with CCP ideology.
“About six years ago, one of my comrades recommended your truth-clarification materials to me. Those materials explained things very clearly step by step, so simple and yet so profound. I felt so ashamed, thinking, ‘I have lived in vain for the past few decades!”
Jingge said to the practitioner repeatedly, “Thank you very much. I know how hard you have all been working to help us! I have always wanted to watch a complete Shen Yun show but haven’t been able to find a Shen Yun DVD. I watched some Shen Yun clips on the Epoch Times website. Shen Yun truly is wonderful and touching. It’s absolutely first-class. Please send my best regards and wishes to the Shen Yun Performing Arts Company from far-away Beijing in China! Thank you!”
Mr. Guo heard the CCP’s rumors slandering Falun Gong when he was still a student at Shanghai Jiaotong University. “I had many questions at the time and hoped to find the truth. Later, after I was able to access a large amount of truth-clarifying materials from practitioners, I found answers to all my questions.”
Seeing the economic collapse in Shanghai and across China after the ridiculous lockdowns during the pandemic, especially when the government refused to offer any help to his own small company during that difficult time, and it was constantly being bullied and exploited by the CCP officials at all levels, he became even more aware of just how evil the CCP is.
He not only quit the CCP organizations himself, but also laid bare just how evil the CCP is on different social media platforms. Although several of his social media accounts were blocked, he continued to spread the truth, “It was worth it. Many of my former classmates finally saw through the CCP’s fakery and pretention as a result of my efforts. They have now stopped making their previous silly remarks.”
Mr. Li in Guangdong is also a very clear-headed person. He said, “Right now, we must do our best to wake up those who can be woken up. There are actually many Chinese people who are willing to think independently, but they have no way to get true information. We must be patient and persistent in telling them the truth. We mustn't say too much in one go, and just have to tell them a little at a time. Many people are able to accept the truth in the end. This is how I have been doing it for more than ten years, talking to people patiently. Dozens of people I know have slowly woken up.”
