(Clearwisdom.net) Before the May 1 holiday this year, I received two wedding invitations from my colleagues of over ten years, for their sons. My husband and I planned to attend, so I made the best of my time to prepare truth-clarification materials and charm amulets (1) to hand out.
For the first banquet, I prepared ten copies of truth-clarifying materials and more than twenty charm amulets. Before going to the banquet, I went to talk to the hostess. I told her the benefits of practicing Falun Dafa and why there are so many natural disasters nowadays. As I was talking, I gave her truth-clarifying information and a charm amulet, and told her to recite the words on the amulet. I also told her some examples of people getting blessed from reciting "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." She listened carefully and then said, "Why don't you give me two more charm amulets for my son and daughter." I also asked her, "Have you or your husband ever joined the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations?" She said, "Yes, but a relative already helped us withdraw some time ago."
After I bid farewell to the hostess, my husband and I hurried to the restaurant for the wedding banquet. On the way there, I sent forth righteous thoughts and asked for all the predestined people to come to me. As soon as we got to the restaurant, I saw an old colleague walking up to me. After we greeted each other, she said, "Are you still practicing Falun Gong?" I asked, "How can you tell?" She replied, "You haven't changed in over ten years. But, look at me, I am so old now." She is only a few years older than I am, but her face was full of wrinkles. I said, "If you don't want to look old, just practice Falun Gong. Go home and keep practicing." (She had practiced Falun Dafa before the persecution began.) She smiled and said, "Yes, I will." I gave her truth-clarifying information and a charm amulet, and told her to read it once she got home so that she could start practicing again after learning the truth about Falun Gong.
After the banquet started, I told people sitting at my table the truth about Falun Gong and gave each of them truth-clarifying materials and charm amulets. I told them to read the materials when they got home and recite the words on the amulet. They all smiled and thanked me.
After the first banquet, I thought to myself, "The banquet lasts less than an hour. For the next banquet, I have to go a little earlier and wait for people at the door." At the second banquet, I saw a colleague that I hadn't seen for 23 years. She told me that her health was very bad. I told her, "I brought a charm amulet for you. Just recite the words on it and you will feel better." I also helped her to withdraw from the CCP and its affiliated organizations. Before we went our ways, I gave her several copies of materials and told her to read them carefully at home.
I saw another colleague of mine at the banquet and gave her two charm amulets and a copy of the truth-clarifying material. I told her to read the material carefully and recite the words on the amulet, and she would gain good health. She said she would and thanked me. I used the same method and distributed over twenty amulets and a dozen materials. By then, the banquet was over. My husband and I went home happily.
People are very busy. But as practitioners, we need to remember to make the best use of our time to save sentient beings.
Note:
(1) In China, practitioners sometimes clarify the truth by giving people something small to wear or cherish, bearing a few words reminding them of the goodness of Dafa.
