[The letter]
Fellow Practitioners:
How are you doing? In the face of evil's mad persecution, you have given up everything to assist Teacher to validate Fa and to save sentient beings. We don't know how many hardships you have experienced, and how difficult your path has been. As fellow Dafa practitioners, however, we would like to share with you your hardships and happiness.
Now it has turned cold. Do you need some thick quilts, sweaters, and padded jackets? Those things are relatively easier for us to obtain. Just let us know what you need and we will do our best to assist you.
(signed) Your Fellow practitioners.
[The reply]
Fellow Practitioners:
Thanks for your letter. After reading your letter, we felt warmth in our hearts as if we had put on a warm padded jacket. Although we live in places away from home, wearing clothes supplied by numerous families and having food supplied by numerous people, we never feel as though we are away from home. Dafa has connected us all together and formed us into one big family. We haven't done anything extra; we are, in the course of assisting Teacher to validate the Fa, only playing the different roles that we should play. We, however, have got much care and love from fellow practitioners.
In the past year, we together again and again broke the interference and destructiveness of the evil force and allowed more and more practitioners to join us to validate the Fa, clarify the facts about Falun Dafa, and to save sentient beings. Because of your compassion and persistent efforts, those practitioners who had gotten lost have returned to the course of Fa-rectification. You ran the risk of losing everything and sent over three million flyers, over 100 thousand VCDs, and over 5 thousand videotapes - offering salvation not just to individuals but to huge numbers of families. You also sent out numerous truth-clarification brochures, hung banners, put slogans up with double-sided tape, and recently put out thirty loudspeakers. These are things you have done with wisdom and compassion to save sentient beings.
Many times the help and encouragement of fellow practitioners allowed us to get through difficult situations. When we have stumbled, fellow practitioners have helped us to find the reasons we did so in our xinxing; when we have been deficient in financial resources, fellow practitioners have right away sent us the money they scraped together. When we learned a rural practitioner sent us the money she earned selling eggs, our eyes filled with tears upon seeing the torn bank notes and coins. The feeling is hard to describe. There is a fellow practitioner who gave us her only two sweaters and till now she still wears longjohns.
We have only done what we should do but have received great care from fellow practitioners. We have no way to repay them except to be more diligent in our cultivation and in doing Dafa work. The best reward to our work is to allow more fellow practitioners to follow the pace of Teacher's Fa-rectification, and to allow more people who have been deceived by the lies to wake up. Herein we would like to thank all the fellow practitioners who have stepped out to assist Teacher to validate the Fa and to save the sentient beings. We would like to thank all the fellow practitioners who have given us strong support and assistance, and thank all sisters and brothers who care for us and help us. Let's form a perfect and indestructible single body. Let's advance together and return soon to Teacher's side.
Heshi
A fellow practitioner
