(Clearwisdom.Net) Each day after finishing the household chores, I utilize all my time to study the Fa, do the exercises, send forth righteous thoughts, and tell people the facts of Falun Gong. For materials to give out to people, I write down "Falun Dafa is good," "Falun Dafa is righteous," and "Truthfulness - Compassion - Forbearance is good," on pieces of paper with a colored pen. After I tell people about Falun Gong, I then give them the handwritten sheet of paper. People usually are very thankful.
I go out every day to tell people the facts of Falun Gong regardless of the weather. I have covered almost all of the streets in the surrounding cities. In the areas near my home, many people have come to know that I am a Falun Dafa practitioner, and that Falun Gong is good, and they treat me like a close relative. Some people tell me, "Thank you for teaching me the profound principles. I corrected many of my bad habits." I always tell them that they should thank Teacher instead.
Teacher tells us:
"Validate the Fa with rationality, clarify the truth with wisdom, spread the Fa and save people with mercy." ("Rationality" Essentials for Further Advancement II)
Each day before I go out to clarify the truth, I ask Teacher to protect me, "Teacher, I am going out to clarify the facts. Please don't let the evil people see or hear me. Please arrange for me to meet the good people that should be saved." Many times, just after I finish these words, I find people with a predestined relationship right in front of me. I clarify the truth to more than ten individuals every day.
From the power of Dafa, I found a good way to clarify the facts. To be able to speak with more people, I established several "truth clarification sites" in my neighborhood's market place, such as a sewing store, a beauty salon, a grocery store, etc. I first clarified the truth to the store owners. After they understood the truth, I frequently stopped by to chat with them. As time goes by, they see me as their good friend and even help me to spread the facts. These stores have a lot of people coming in each day and their owners are my good friends, so every day after I finish the housework I take my granddaughter with me to these stores, one after another. Sometimes, to help people understand more clearly, the storeowners take the initiative to help clarify the truth with me.
One store owner's daughter got married and I was invited to attend the wedding banquet. I took this opportunity to tell people the facts of Falun Gong. At the banquet, I spoke with people at several tables. Many of them thanked me for letting them know the facts. I told them to thank Teacher instead.
I usually take a cab when I travel somewhere far away. I chat with the cab drivers, telling them about Falun Gong, and give them truth clarification CDs and other materials. They usually come to understand that Teacher is turning people's hearts toward goodness, improving their morals, and rescuing all sentient beings. So they are sincerely grateful to Teacher. Some drivers even promise to tell other people the facts. There was one cab driver that I have met twice. The first time I took his cab, I gave him a VCD about Falun Gong. The second time I took his cab again, he told me that he had told many people about Falun Gong. Once a man was trying to remove a Falun Gong poster and he stopped that person in front of many onlookers. I am really happy for him.
Now I talk with everyone I meet. I treat them all the same, stranger or acquaintance, man or woman, old or young. I just want to tell everyone the facts about Falun Gong. I always start a conversation in a way that makes them feel comfortable to talk with me. The conversation will then naturally lead to Falun Gong.
After the recent publication of the "Nine Commentaries on the Chinese Communist Party," when I start a conversation with people about Falun Gong, they usually go on to condemn the Communist Party. This is partly because ordinary people's lives are really difficult. The Falun Gong programs that were broadcast through cable TV also helped many people learn the facts. It is now easier for people to talk with others about the facts of Falun Gong.
I just do what Teacher asks us to do:
"Clarify the truth thoroughly, eliminate the evil with righteous thoughts, save all beings, and safeguard the Fa with determination" ("Dafa is Indestructible" Essentials for Further Advancement II)
I also want to use this opportunity to say to our magnificent Teacher, "Happy New Year!! Thank you for your benevolent salvation!"
