Clarifying the Truth at Attractions in My Hometown

(Minghui.org) My hometown is a beautiful place where one finds many tourist attractions. With millions of people from all over the country visiting each year, the infrastructure is expanding rapidly to accommodate the booming tourism. During peak season, the town is filled with tourists, seasonal laborers, and migrant workers. This, of course, presents me with the perfect opportunity to clarify the truth about Falun Dafa. After years of consistently going to the attraction sights, talking to people, and distributing Dafa informational materials, many locals have gotten to know me.

Getting to Know People

A staff member at an attraction asked me one time, “What supernormal powers do you have?” I double-crossed my legs in a full lotus position and told him I could meditate like that for a few hours. He nodded, “What about those flyers you give out? Can I get one?” He took a flyer and left. The next time I saw him, he said that he enjoyed looking at the flyer. He even brought me food and some tea one time.

While distributing Dafa flyers at a busy place one time, a police officer asked for a copy. People around us couldn’t believe it, “Wow. Even the cop got a Falun Gong (also called Falun Dafa) flyer! We should probably also listen to what she has to say.”

A new construction project was launched, and there were many construction workers. Each time I passed by, I stopped and talked to the workers, “You’re lucky to have come here. You’re here to learn the truth about Dafa and receive blessings.” I told whoever was willing to listen what Dafa is about and the facts about the persecution. I also gave them truth-clarification flyers and Dafa booklets to read.

More than 20 workers huddled in a circle when I walked by one time. I jokingly asked, “What is going on here? Is this a meeting of the Party Committee? Can I speak too? Chinese Communist Party (CCP) members are also human beings—they, too, have to act in accordance with the law of the universe to stay out of trouble. If you know Dafa is good, you’ll be spared by heaven. If you know the truth about Dafa, you’ll receive blessings. Here, why don’t you take a flyer and read it?” I passed some flyers around the circle.

A person purchased a new DVD and walked by me. I pointed at the DVD in his hand and said, “Oh. These don’t do any good for grown-ups or kids. Want something truly good for you? Here is a DVD that will bring you tremendous blessings.” He didn’t take it at first and walked for quite a distance before turning back to grab it. I told him, “This DVD can save people. After you watch it, please play it for your friends and family too. The more people that see it the better.”

Clarifying the Truth to Local Police

A few police officers came up to me one day, and I told them, “I have been wanting to give the local police officers some flyers. Here you are. It’s your lucky day. Read these—learning the truth can save you. Knowing that Dafa is good will keep you safe. You will also be spared by heaven. In the face of danger, if you know the truth about Dafa, you’ll receive blessings.”

One of them sneered, “It’s you again.” They turned around and were about to leave, but I handed them the flyers and said, “Don’t leave. I’m not done yet. You’re meant to be here today to hear the truth and be blessed. Please read these flyers carefully when you get home, and you’ll know what I’m talking about.”

Since Jiang Zemin, former head of the CCP, launched the persecution of Falun Dafa in July 1999, I have clarified the truth to many police officers. I figured that the more police officers who know the truth, the more practitioners would go out and tell others, and the more sentient beings would be saved.

The police visited me at home one time, trying to convince me to renounce my belief. I clarified the truth to them as usual. Seeing that it was unlikely I’d change my mind, they turned to my son for help. My son told them, “I think it’s great that my mother practices Falun Dafa. Look how healthy she is for being in her 80s.”

A group of officers came to my house one time and encircled me. While some officers had my attention, one officer in the back took three of my Dafa books without my knowledge. After I found out, I went to the police station to get my books back. “The bandits used to hide in the deep mountains, and nowadays they are right here at the police station,” I stated. “How did you steal my books? Please give them back.” They said they had turned them in to the chief, so I clarified the truth to them.

After I filed a criminal complaint against Jiang Zemin for launching the persecution, the local police came knocking and wanted to confirm if I had indeed filed such a complaint. I told them, “Why not sue him? He wouldn’t let good people be and made people do bad things instead. Look, just how chaotic it is. He turned a blind eye to those who steal and rob, but wouldn’t leave good people alone.” They came several times, and each time I gave them Dafa flyers and clarified the truth to them. In the end, I told them, “What are your names? Why don’t you quit the CCP and its youth organizations so Buddhas and Gods can protect you?” They all told me their names.

I was taken to the police station one time, and one officer told me, “We didn’t want to arrest you. You’re so senior, as old as my grandmother. But we don’t have a choice. There have been quite a few people reporting you recently.” I said, “No worries at all. It’s great timing that you brought me here so I can clarify the truth to you. Once you understand the truth about Dafa, you’ll thank me and thank our Master.” I recited Master’s poem for them,

“Steering the Fa Vessel before disaster descends,Millions upon millionsthe hardships and perils, blocking my path,Carrying the Cosmos, boat broken and torn,At last! I pull into shore—a dream of ten thousand years.” (“Suffering to Save,” Hong Yin)

I told them, “The morality of this society is declining rapidly. All kinds of bad spirits walk among us, corrupting and undermining the righteous energy of the world. Master teaches this great Fa so we can save people. I suffered from possession by an animal spirit for over 10 years. After I took up Dafa cultivation, Master eliminated the possessing spirit and saved me. Without Dafa, I wouldn’t be here today. My entire family knows that Dafa is good and has received blessings. I just want you all to remember ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’ If you remember it, all Gods and Buddhas will protect you.” An officer talked to his supervisor in the next room. I was released moments later.

Ever since then, the police have always walked around me if they saw me clarifying the truth in public. If they ran right into me, they greeted me warmly and tipped me off on which route to take or not to take going home.

Eliminating Fear

A while back, I went to the market, and my son offered to pick me up afterward. I told him I’d rather walk, as that way I could clarify the truth on my way back. He insisted, “Mother, you always spend so much time talking to people about Dafa on your way home from the market. The entire family has to wait for you.” To be considerate of others’ time, I agreed to take a ride in his cab.

The other passengers in his cab were college students attending a university in a major city. Naturally, I clarified the truth to the students. I told them to remember “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” I advised them to think independently and choose wisely. My son chimed in, “The practice my mother is doing is great. It is a great Fa. My mother is 88 years old, still gardens, and even shares the vegetables she grows with us.”

One of the students commented, “Look at this grandmother. Her complexion is so healthy.” They told me some members of their families were members of the CCP and held high positions in government agencies. I told them, “Oh, that’s great. Now you can tell them about Dafa and the truth.” I gave them Dafa flyers, copies of The Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, and Master’s new article “How Humankind Came To Be” to take home and share with their families.

“Tell your families not to listen to the CCP,” I told them. “The Communist Party fights heaven and earth, and heaven is bound to eliminate it. Its actions don’t obey the law of the universe. Yet there are many good people within the Party. We have to tell them about Dafa and help them separate themselves from the Party. If they know Dafa is good, heaven will protect them. If they know the truth, they’ll receive blessings.”

Focused on clarifying the truth at the moment, I didn’t think much about anything else. After we got home, fear crept in, “Would the students’ family members be receptive to Dafa? What if they had written down my son’s license plate number?” I started to worry and lost sleep over it for a couple of days. I continuously sent righteous thoughts, and when I burned incense for Master in the mornings, I asked Master to save those students and their families and not let them accrue karma. I was anxious, not knowing what was going to happen. In the end, however, I made up my mind to leave everything in Master’s hands. As soon as I decided, I was able to gain righteous thoughts and find peace in my heart.

The first half of my life was filled with so many hardships and so much pain that I could probably fill a book. Ever since Master picked me up and lifted me from the endless suffering, I feel that I could write a completely different book based on my experience, and what I have gained on my cultivation journey.
