(Clearwisdom.net) During the process of calling China to clarify the truth, no matter whether they are my relatives, friends, or strangers, I always try to help them become clear-minded immediately and establish a correct understanding regarding the persecution of Falun Gong. In the past, I would be happy when I ran into people with a good attitude and I was disheartened when I came across people with a bad attitude. I later realized that people with positive attitudes are the ones who have learned the truth or have no negative understanding of Dafa. So they are not a problem. I only needed to supply them with new information so they could help us to spread the truth. The real emphasis should be on those who do not know the truth of Dafa and have a negative impression of Dafa and Dafa disciples. If we do not clarify the truth to them, they may lose their future. But since these people have deviated concepts and have been poisoned by lies for a long time, it's not easy to change them with a single call.
But among these people, a large number have mentioned that they know someone who practices Falun Gong, and they have already seen truth-clarifying materials. In those areas with a good environment, the Falun Gong practitioners show a righteous image. I have seen that in areas where people have sympathy for Falun Gong practitioners, the people have less resistance to the truth clarifying calls. Even if they have some misunderstandings or questions, they will put them forward for discussion. If at the end, they have still not changed their minds, they express that they will read more truth clarifying materials or get more information from the practitioners around them.
In addition, many people's minds are unstable and their good thoughts can be subverted. Sometimes we change their minds, and then after some time when the situation changes, they may have a misunderstanding again. Therefore, truth clarifying should be an ongoing effort. However, every time we clarify the truth to them it is to strengthen their righteous minds and let them have a wider and deeper understanding of Dafa. Eventually, they will become immune to the lies.
Because of the limits of time and human resources, calling one person many times in a large-scale effort is not realistic. Therefore, calls from overseas practitioners are only a small part of what's needed in clarifying the truth to the Chinese people. The solidifying work falls on practitioners in China to create a better environment. The efforts of practitioners overseas and in China will thus be unified.
In addition, the words and actions of practitioners in their daily lives constitute truthfulness. People listening to the truth will compare what we say with the behavior of practitioners they see in their daily lives. If the practitioners are admired by them, they will more easily accept the truth. Otherwise, they will not listen to us at all. Therefore, during our daily lives and in the workplace, even when we are not telling others about Falun Dafa, if we behave well, Dafa practitioners will be spreading the truth every minute. Thus, we are required to hold ourselves to a high standard in our personal cultivation, not only for our own improvement, but more importantly, in order to avoid creating obstacles for saving people.
