.(Clearwisdom.net) Master once warned us,
"Now is the final moment that concludes arrangements that are eons old. History's progression to this point today has not been easy, fraught as it's been with hardship and ups and downs. From ancient times till today, the multitude of gods have been watching and closely following this affair, and are paying particular attention at this final phase." ("Fa Teaching at the 2008 New York Conference," May 24, 2008, in Manhattan)
"The greatest manifestation of shan is compassion, and it is an expression of tremendous energy. It can disintegrate all that is not right." ("Fa Teaching at the 2009 Washington DC International Fa Conference," July 18, 2009)
Comparing myself with Master's Fa, I often ask myself: On the path of Fa rectification, do I still practice as well as before? When encountering xinxing tests, have I cultivated myself? Master told us to do the three things well. Have I done that? Have all sentient beings within my world been saved? Looking inward, I truly felt that if Fa rectification were to end now, I would have so much to regret. In this last moment, I should accelerate my pace in saving sentient beings, listen to Master's words, and let those people who have predestined relationships know that Falun Dafa is good, so they can be saved by withdrawing from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. Happiness will accompany them forever if they quickly escape from the disaster.
We started by distributing truth-clarification materials to people, letting them know that Falun Dafa is good and that withdrawing from the CCP and its affiliated organizations would keep them safe. Later we moved to our present face-to-face truth-clarification to save people directly. We have visited people in cities and in the countryside. We have clarified the truth while cultivating ourselves, constantly eliminating attachments such as saving face, being afraid, and not accepting others' criticism. Since people are confused by atheism, it is often hard for them to believe, and they won't listen to persuasion. Even when some people maliciously report us, we still maintain a sincere heart of kindness, thinking, "As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we must save that person." We have catered to everyday people's attachments and drawn out their kind nature, so they can make a wise and rational decision.
A fellow practitioner and I once went to a big mall to clarify the truth face-to-face. We talked with a man in his sixties about Falun Gong and the global big wave of withdrawing from the CCP. The man said he could agree with the viewpoint of Falun Gong. He said he had read Falun Gong brochures and watched truth-clarification CDs. He also said that in his work unit, he noticed that leaders were very corrupt and dared to do whatever bad deeds they wanted. Still, he said, "Now it is the CCP that controls the country. You can't fight with them. If you think Falun Gong is good, then you'd better practice at home. Don't cause any trouble for yourself." We told him "The CCP has done all kinds of bad deeds. Heaven is eliminating it. You raised your hand and swore to live for it, so you are one of its particles. When it is eliminated, you will be eliminated along with it. If you withdraw from it and claim your previous oath to be invalid, you will be able to escape the big disaster when it comes." After hearing that, he said, "I know you are kind people just by looking at you. I know that you have come for the sake of my personal benefit. I want to tell you to stop working on this. You are not going to win by fighting against the CCP." My fellow practitioner and I were not worried. We patiently talked with him for nearly twenty minutes. However, whenever we mentioned withdrawing from the CCP, he immediately shook his head. I gave him the nickname "Fushou" and repeatedly urged him to withdraw and told him it was for his own sake. I told him he should try to believe what we told him. He still would not agree to withdraw. We seldom took so much time to persuade someone to withdraw from the CCP, and we began to feel a little bit anxious. But we gave it more thought and understood that we should not be anxious. That person seemed to have a predestined relationship with us, and we knew we must save him. Unexpectedly, at that moment he got up and said goodbye to us. I quickly followed him for a few steps and said, "You are pretty clear in your mind. For your own sake, I'll give you the name 'Fushou' and I advise you to withdraw from the CCP." He immediately nodded his head and said, "OK, Let's do that." We felt happy that he would be saved.
Afterwards, my fellow practitioner and I stood up and walked away. After we walked about ten steps, we saw two tall security people hurrying towards the place we had been sitting (a woman had reported us.) We walked past the two security people and left safely. At that moment, we realized why that gentleman was leaving in a hurry. It was Master kindly protecting us. Thank you, Master!
One day, we met a young couple. My fellow practitioner went to talk with them and persuade them to withdraw from the CCP to have a safe life. The young girl said loudly, "Don't talk to me about this. I don't want to hear that." My fellow practitioner wanted to continue talking with them, but the young girl said loudly again, "Go away. I don't want to hear this." She seemed pretty quiet at first glance, but her behavior made her into a different person. I thought to myself: "We shouldn't let this young couple have distress when the evil CCP is eliminated. They are innocent people. I should find a way to save them." When I went to sit down next to them, the girl quickly moved her hand bag and said, "Have a seat, Auntie." I said, "Thank you! You look like a good girl. Are you working now?" She replied, "I am a student, a senior in college." I said to her, "It's good to be able to go to college and be carefree. The most annoying thing is to look for a job. It's hard to find a job and the salaries are low. It's not easy to make a living these days." The young man said, "You are right. Now the price of housing is so high that nobody can afford it!" I said, "Right. The leaders don't care about ordinary people. No wonder there are so many disasters. The leaders are so corrupt. Heaven is angry. Have you watched the movie 2012 from the US?" He said, "We did. It was terrible." I said, "Don't worry. There is a way to escape big disasters. Have you joined the CCP ?" They replied, "No." Then I asked, "You must have joined the Youth League and the Young Pioneers. As long as in your heart you void the oath you made when you joined those organizations, you will be able to escape the disaster. Let me give both of you a nickname. For you, young girl, you will be called 'Fuhai' and you, young man, will be called 'Shunxin'. Is that OK?" They could not stop laughing and kept saying, "Good. Good." When I saw that these two young people had already accepted me, I began talking to them about Falun Gong, and why Falun Gong was being persecuted. Finally, they were saved.
At the end of last year, we went to the countryside and clarified the truth door to door. When we arrived at a peasant's home, the owner looked very serious when he saw us, and asked what we were doing there. He would not let us into the house. We smiled and told him how to be safe. He got very angry and said loudly, "Do you know who I am? How dare you even talk to me about that? How dare you come here?" My fellow practitioner said, "No matter what you do, you have the right to know the truth. Only when you withdraw from the evil CCP and its affiliated organizations will you be safe." He shouted, "Go away, immediately. If I make a phone call, the police will come to arrest you. Don't you believe me?" At that time, one of our fellow practitioners began silently sending forth righteous thoughts. We were not moved by his words. We only had one thought, which was to save him. We would not give up as long as there was one thread of hope. We continued clarifying the truth to him. He said, "It seems that you really don't know what my job is. I am a police officer. If you don't leave now, I will make a phone call." I said, "If you are a policeman, that's even better. You should know the truth so that you will not do something that you may regret. Those who practice Falun Gong are all good people. Protecting them is what you need to do. We are not asking for anything. We just want to tell you a good way to escape when disaster comes. It will be good for you. You should protect them. Why not do it."
Master said,
"With such an enormous Fa here, the Fa will be with you when your thoughts are righteous, and this is the greatest assurance." ("Fa Teaching Given in Manhattan," March 26, 2006)
In the field of our righteous thoughts, his attitude eased. He said, "I understand what you said. You can go now. I am a Party member. How do I withdraw from it?" We told him how to withdraw. He shook his head. We kept talking with him while walking outside. When we arrived at the gate and were ready to say goodbye to him, my fellow practitioner took the opportunity to say, "How about you use 'Jinxiu' to withdraw? It will be good for you. You will know that in the future." He said, "OK." Another life was saved, but we didn't get too excited because there are still many sentient beings waiting for us to save.
This year, right after the Spring Festival, some fellow practitioners and I went to the remote countryside to clarify the truth door-to-door. It was pretty cold. When we came out of a peasant's home, we saw two women chatting near the wall. We walked over and greeted them. When the elder woman heard us talking about Falun Gong, she began to reject us and asked us to go away. We were not moved by her attitude and continued talking with her. She became very angry and said, "I don't believe in anything. I will listen to whoever gives me money or food. You are taking the CCP's money and are still against the CCP. Now go away!" The three of us constantly sent forth righteous thoughts and we realized that those people who we met must have predestined relationships. We didn't give up. Every one of us tried to control ourselves and cleared our field. In the meantime, we began to clarify the truth to another middle-aged woman. She accepted what we said and told us, "That woman not only has a job and earns money, she is also a Party member." Hearing that, I had a better understanding about that woman's situation.
While we were talking, the elder woman also listened quietly, and she gradually came to understand what Falun Gong was. I told her, "We came to this remote countryside from our city. We endured cold weather and hunger. What do you think our goal is? We just want to let you know how to escape when disaster comes. It is fate that we met. It is very unlikely we will see each other again in the future. You know that at present there are disasters one after another. People can hardly avoid them. Quickly withdraw from the CCP. If you stay with it, it will be like holding onto a bomb!" We then talked about how Falun Gong cultivates Buddhahood, and practices Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." We told her to often recite "Falun Dafa is good" and that it would bring great benefit to her. The field of mercy touched her, and she said, "Now help me withdraw from the CCP."
When we left, she repeatedly told me, "You are nearly sixty years old. It's not easy for you to do this. The ground is covered with ice. Please walk slowly!" I replied to her, "Thank you. Don't worry. I will be OK." What kind people they were. We really could not leave them behind. Saving a life is a major event.
In the middle of this March, we went to the countryside to save people. While we were clarifying the truth to several peasants, a woman in her thirties walked very fast in our direction. She was holding a brochure that I left in front of her house. She said loudly, "Who put this in front of our door? Aren't you afraid of me calling 911 to report you to the police, so they arrest you?" I quickly walked towards her and said, "Are you going to report us to the police? We are delivering some happiness to you. If you were at home, we would have gone in to chat with you. These materials have very valuable information that can save your life." Her attitude then became gentle and she said, "You are so brave. In broad daylight you dare to go door-to-door. Aren't you afraid of being arrested?" "No one is going to do those wicked things," we answered. "Did you ever see those who caused others to suffer during the Cultural Revolution live a good life?" "You are right," she agreed, "They did not meet with good results." We told her, "We came here to deliver the truth. You don't need to thank us. We met today because we have a predestined relationship."
She sighed, "It's really not easy for you. Can you tell me what really happened in the Tiananmen Self-immolation incident?" I briefly told her the truth about Falun Gong and also the big wave of withdrawing from the CCP and affiliated organizations. I also gave her a CD of the Shen Yun Show, truth-clarification materials, etc. I also asked her to spread the truth to her friends and relatives, so they would have the chance to be saved, too. By doing that she would be doing a very good deed. She agreed to withdraw from the CCP. It only took a few minutes before about ten people, including adults and children, gathered around. They all learned the truth. They were so happy to get truth clarification materials and CDs. It was like celebrating the holidays, very lively and peaceful.
I once met three young boys, who came from Heilongjiang Province to our city to look for jobs. They were worried about not being able to find suitable jobs. They calmed down after I talked with them. I then talked about withdrawing from the CCP to have a safe life. One of the boys said, "Auntie, are you a Falun Gong practitioner?" I said, "Yes. Falun Gong is for cultivating Buddhahood. It is a very good cultivation practice." He said, "You are so brave to talk to me about this. Aren't you afraid of me reporting you to the police to arrest you?" I replied, "You look like a good boy. I am telling you how to save your life. Where on earth can you find such a good person. You should not do such an unfaithful thing." He said, "Auntie, I want to tell you that I specially admire you Falun Gong practitioners. The evil CCP is so madly arresting you and detaining you, yet you still follow your Teacher, don't change your minds, and still protect your Teacher. Falun Gong is really incredible!" I told him, "I had all kinds of illnesses before. No hospitals could cure them. Dafa's Teacher saved me. The evil CCP framed our Teacher. Do you think I can pretend to be dumb? We want to say just words for Dafa. This is our duty as human beings." The young man said, "Auntie, what you said is correct. I heard people saying your Teacher is in the U.S. If I have a chance, I really want to go to the U.S. to meet your Teacher."
After hearing what that boy said, I was touched by the world's awakening, and also for them to be saved. The other two boys were quietly listening to our conversation. I told them, "Those who practice Falun Gong are all good people. Our Teacher came to save people. You will be safe if you often recite 'Falun Dafa is good.' Listen to my words. Withdraw from the Youth League and Young Pioneers. You will be blessed." The three boys happily agreed to withdraw from the CCP.
Time is extremely valuable. Teacher has extended the time for us to quickly save more people. We shoulder the expectations of all beings. We should constantly speed up our steps in saving people. As long as we have one thread of hope, we should not give up. This is our duty and also our big historic vow.
