(Clearwisdom.net) My relative's child was getting married and invited me to the wedding. I realized this was a great opportunity to clarify the truth about Falun Gong there because I had lived in that village before and still have a lot of relatives, friends and acquaintances there.
After preparing the truth-clarifying materials and VCDs, I sent forth righteous thoughts along the way and arrived at my relative's home one day before the wedding. Because all neighbors knew that my family has been persecuted severely, they wanted to know what Falun Dafa is really about from me personally. When I told them the many benefits of practicing Dafa through my own experience, they all agreed and said, "That is what we thought. There must be benefits from practicing Falun Dafa otherwise you wouldn't practice. You do not seem like someone who could be easily deceived!" However, they still had some doubts about the "April 25th event" [when 10,000 practitioners when to the government compound at Zhongnanhai to appeal on behalf of Falun Dafa] and the "Tiananmen self-immolation incident." So I told them the truth about these two events in detail. After hearing what I said, some said, "That is true. It is so easy for the Party to manipulate!" Another guy said, "According to what you said, Falun Dafa is the true righteous Fa. Your Dafa will definitely win."
When I visited another relative, I asked her, "Have you read the Dafa truth-clarifying materials?" She said, "No." I told her very seriously, "These materials are prepared using the money from selling our Dafa practitioners' personal belongings, and they were made with sweat and blood. Please treasure them! Don't throw them away after you read them. You may give them to other relatives, friends and acquaintances. It will do them good." Hearing what I said, tears filled her eyes. She held the truth-clarifying materials in her hands and said, "I will preserve them well." That night, she spent half of the night reading the materials. Her husband even joked with her telling their child, "Look, your mother is about to practice Falun Gong."
One of my sister-in-laws who came from another province to attend the wedding was so moved after hearing the truth about Dafa. She said to me, "I didn't know that Falun Dafa is so good until today. All three of us in my family want to practice. Do you have the book?" A cousin who was diagnosed with late stage cancer said repeatedly, "Oh, it is too late for me!" I told him, "No, it is not late. Once you know that Falun Dafa is good, you will benefit from it. You should take a look at the book; a miracle might happen." He replied quickly, "I will. I will." At this moment I realized deeply: "Yes, I came too late. I should've brought the Dafa of the cosmos to them earlier. They are all waiting for Dafa."
A Dafa practitioner who lives in the village told me, "The environment has improved a lot. Did you see that one-foot long banner of "Falun Dafa is good" hanging on the electric wire pole? It has been there for one month. Nobody tried to remove it."
Through explaining the true facts during this visit, I found that talking to people face to face has a very good effect. Many people had resistant thoughts and would not read the truth-clarifying materials at all. By telling the true facts to relatives, friends and acquaintances, not only their resistant thoughts can be eliminated, we can also clarify the particular points that they didn't understand. With the help of truth-clarifying flyers and VCDs, they can get rid of the negative impact of evil propaganda right away and thus be saved. Therefore, I made up my mind that I would visit all my relatives to tell them about Dafa and clarify the true facts of Falun Dafa to them.
