(Clearwisdom.net) One time in a dream, I saw the sentient beings suffering, and my heart wept for them. I started to clarify the truth to them. One person told me to be careful. I said that I was not afraid and did not stop, and the sentient beings smiled. After I woke up from the dream, I was extremely distraught and tears continued to flow.
The next day, I put the truth-clarification flyers in small red packages and went to the market. I clarified the truth as I distributed the packages. Most who did not want to accept them at first eventually took the packages.
On the third day, I went again, but the situation was much more tense. No matter how I went about it, nobody would listen, "How dare you still spread this, people are being arrested for it." One man yelled: "You had better leave quick. Otherwise, I will call the police." I was quite calm and did not panic, and continued to clarify the truth as I distributed the material.
But, this affected me deep within. I found it almost insurmountable, but then I remembered Teacher's words: "It's hard to endure, but you can endure it. It's hard to do, but you can do it." (Zhuan Falun) After I went back, I looked within, and figured it could be the way I went about it. Telling people the facts was not wrong, but I needed to pay more attention to the words I used so that people can understand and accept them. So I went again and paid particular attention to how I could improve in the way I talk to people. I began to greet people with polite greetings as I distributed the material. This way, I finished distributing all the red packages without a hitch.
The fourth time, I once more went to distribute the red packages just outside the market. When I just finished, a woman shouted at me: "You stop right there. I recognize you; you have been distributing material here several times already." At that moment, I thought maybe I could have a good talk with her. She ran to me and tugged at my clothes: "Let us go to the police station." No matter how I talked to her, she refused to listen. Another woman also came and tried to drag me away. They could not move me, so they slapped my face. Some bystanders even said, "Slap him harder!" I said to them, "Falun Dafa is here to save you." She released her grip, and by then more people had gathered around us. One person said, "Why aren't you going yet?" I turned around and left.
After I came back, I looked within and realized that I still had the attachment of fear. Because my elder sisters worked at the vegetable stand in the market, I was afraid of being seen by them. Isn't this an attachment of fear? The more I was afraid to be seen, the more likely I would be noticed by them. I need to give up the attachment.
I realized that the more difficult it looked on the surface, for instance, clarifying the truth face-to-face, the more I needed to do it. I must not give up simply because people failed to understand. People are busy all day making a living, and they do not take time to distinguish between right and wrong. When they casually hear lies and propaganda, they simply believe it. If I do not tell them, how will they know the truth?
