(Clearwisdom.net) During this summer tourism season, some Dafa practitioners may go sightseeing with their families. At many famous scenic spots, there are many visitors from China. So when we wear clothes printed with Dafa-related contents, a hat with "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance" written on it, or wear "Falun Dafa" pins, it's a way of clarifying the truth and a way of saving precious Chinese people.
Two years ago, when I visited Disney Gardens together with my kids and family, I wore a yellow T-shirt printed with the words, "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance" and "Falun Dafa Is Good" in both English and Chinese. It attracted the attention of Chinese visitors. While at the entrance, I heard comments from behind me: "There are Falun Gong practitioners over here?!" "Are they Chinese or foreign!" "So nobody prohibits them?" "It reads, Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance!" etc. During the tour, I met more Chinese people. Some of them smiled, some showed confusion, some appeared to be thinking. When I was waiting in line, a middle-aged man turned to face me just to read the words on my shirt. But when I wanted to give him some Dafa materials, he left in hesitation while his group members were not far away. Two young Chinese ladies passed me at a fast pace, but they shouted in surprise: "Falun Dafa!" When we were dining outdoors, a Chinese man watched us at one side quietly, and brought his food to eat near us. Even when the day's tour came to an end, we still met many Chinese people.
I was surprised that at this children's park, there were so many Chinese visitors. I was also ashamed that many times, I did not have the courage to clarify the truth of Dafa to them face to face. My husband said, "You have shown them Dafa contents, that's already something." I do know that some practitioners' clothes are printed with words like: "Stop persecuting Falun Gong," "Release detained Falun Gong practitioners," etc. But many of them just wear these clothes when there are group activities. If we wear clothes with Dafa--related contents when we go shopping in Chinatown or markets, when we go to Chinese parties, when we send our kids to Chinese schools, or anywhere else, Chinese people could know that Falun Gong practitioners are ordinary people all around them. This simple thing is a good method of truth clarification. Though the media is so advanced in the western world, there are still many Chinese who do not know much about Falun Gong. Many of them simply do not know that there are Falun Gong practitioners around them and that there are local practice sites.
Yes, I do suggest that we wear clothes or show other materials with Dafa-related contents in order to let Chinese people see that there is equality of human rights and freedom of belief overseas. Let them see the healthy and energetic looks of practitioners. Let them see the happy families of practitioners, and the popularity of Dafa outside China, as well as expose the lies of Jiang's regime. Let them see the failure of the persecution in China, and of course, let people with predestined relationships attain Dafa.
