(Clearwisdom.net) I am a public official. Through studying the Fa, I have realized that as a Dafa practitioner during the Fa rectification period, in addition to cultivating myself, I should also validate the Fa and save sentient beings. This is our historic mission. Since March 2010, I have clarified the truth to more than 1,100 people; 700 of them are public officials, and 300 are lawyers, teachers, service personnel, enterprise cadres, etc.
Peacefully and Rationally Saving People with Righteous Thoughts
I started to clarify the truth about Dafa in March 2010. I went to three cities to tell my relatives the facts. There are more than 30 relatives in my mother-in-law's family. Over 20 of them renounced their memberships from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. Three of them started to practice Falun Dafa.
Because of my job, I am often in contact with mainstream society. In my office building, there are more than 300 people, and 200 of them are public officials. I have told people the facts about Dafa wherever I've met them, including in their offices, in the elevator, in the hallways, and sometimes in my office. Things have gone very well, and every one of them has quit the CCP. I have helped more than 30 people to quit the CCP at times. Master has already paved the way, and all we need to do is to step forward. Currently in my work unit, there are more than 200 officials, and I have helped 180 of them quit the CCP. There are also 50 workers who quit the CCP organizations.
In April 2011, I learned from the Minghui/Clearwisdom website that a court in my city was about to sentence a practitioner. I had the thought to clarify the truth to a higher ranking official, and then I met him by accident. I told him, “Falun Dafa is a truly righteous practice. All they want to do is to be good people. If you have any cases related to Falun Gong, please don't participate in the persecution.” He replied, “I understand.”
I once went to the city government to clarify the truth to a deputy mayor. At first she didn't believe what I said. She asked about the Tiananmen Square Self-immolation event. I told her it was fabricated by the CCP because they wanted everyone to hate Dafa. I said, “You have been abroad. Falun Gong has been spread to more than 100 countries.” I also said, ”Now there are so many disasters—quitting the CCP will keep you safe.” She agreed.
Once when I was clarifying the truth to a policewoman, she said, “What you told me is very important. I have five brothers and sisters, and three of them work at the police department. My brother is the associate director of the police department, and my sister-in-law works for the 610 Office.” I told her to tell her family members to be nice to Falun Gong practitioners. By doing so they will be rewarded. She said, “Before the persecution started, my mother practiced Falun Gong. However, she stopped because she was afraid of being persecuted. I will ask her to resume.”
Master said in “Dafa Disciples Must Study the Fa,”
“There is something I have observed during the Fa-rectification: in dimensions where the Fa-rectification has yet to arrive, sometimes when a Dafa disciple’s thoughts are quite righteous, there is a righteous god or righteous elements present, serving to reinforce his righteous thoughts.”
I have been trying to reinforce my righteous thoughts every second. When I think I want to save someone, I know that Master may bring me the person with the predestined relationship. I once encountered a prosecutor on street. It was not a good time to tell him the facts, so I thought I would tell him the next time I met him. I then met him again on the street. I told him how corrupt the Party was and how poor and miserable the lives of the common people are. I said, “All my illnesses went away after I practiced Falun Dafa. I'm now very healthy.” He said, “I want to quit the CCP,” and he appreciated my telling him this.
In August 2010, my mother's hometown held an ancestor worship ceremony. My cousin invited me to attend, but I didn't want to. However, he said, “This is a great chance.” I then realized that this was a good chance to clarify the truth. I drove an hour to get there, and I started to persuade people to quit the CCP organizations. More and more people came. Although I didn't know each one, they were all my relatives. I clarified the truth to them, one by one. Then, because time was limited, I got seven or eight people together and talked to them. I continued even at the dinner table. Many relatives said, “Please also help my family and my kids quit.” Within two hours, 78 people had quit the CCP's organizations.
I was once clarifying the truth to two officials. One of them, when he understood what I was saying, shouted with his two arms up, “Falun Dafa is good! Zhen-Shan-Ren is good!” Some officials have even written down, “Falun Dafa is good; Zhen-Shen-Ren is good” on a slip of paper, and recited it frequently in their minds.
Every day I hold righteous thoughts. In order to save more people, I intentionally go out more, and I clarify the truth to everyone I meet with a predestined relationship.
Studying the Fa, Cultivating Myself, and Breaking Through Disease Difficulties
I started practicing Falun Dafa in March 1999. On July 20, 1999, when the evil Party started persecuting Falun Dafa, I gave up practicing. Then in August 2004, I started again.
Before practicing Falun Dafa, I had more than ten diseases, including migraines, insomnia, arthritis, nephritis, fatty liver, ovarian cysts, etc. I had surgery three times. When I had surgery on my ovary, I almost died. Before March 1999, I had practiced several other types of Qigong. In August 2004, my sister came to visit me. She saw that I was being tortured by my diseases. She told me how wonderful Dafa was, and about the many miracles that have occurred when practicing Dafa. So I resumed practicing again. However, because I was busy, I seldom studied the Fa or practiced the exercises. My body and mind therefore didn't change. In the Fall of 2007, I witnessed how my sister was striving forward vigorously, and all her illnesses were gone. I was shocked. I really saw how magical Dafa was. It wasn't until then that I started to take Fa study seriously and truly practice cultivating myself.
My illnesses soon disappeared, and the color in my face returned to normal. Although there were several times when I encountered a tribulation of disease, and my husband tried to take me to the hospital, I remained undisturbed. Then the next day, I was fine. Once day in the spring of this year, when I was asleep, I suddenly felt that I was out of breath. I sat up immediately and started to send forth righteous thoughts and shouted, “Master!” The symptoms then disappeared. After that, I looked within to find the attachment the evil had taken advantage of. I found that I was scared after I clarified the truth. I decided to eliminate it immediately. I knew that I was doing the most righteous thing in the universe and that nothing was qualified to test me.
Master said in “Teaching the Fa at the Eastern U.S. Fa Conference,”
“I just told you all that you need to cherish the Fa, and study it a lot. You have to read the book again and again, and by doing this you are improving. I have infused my abilities into this Dafa. As long as you study it, you will undergo changes. As long as you study it, you will be improving. As long as you practice it to the end, you will be able to reach Consummation.”
I realized that truly studying the Fa means following Master's requirements to look inside ourselves at every moment. We should compare our words and deeds to the Fa. I have recently found that I always reinforce my own opinions, and I become unhappy when others don't agree with me. I also have attachments to fame and showing off, and I haven't paid attention to cultivation of speech. I am determined to send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate these attachments. Every morning I get up at 3:30 to practice the exercises. I study two or three lectures of Zhuan Falun every day, and I listen to recordings of the Fa lectures and recite Hong Yin when I'm walking. During my vacation in 2010, I read all 39 Dafa books.
Through studying the Fa intensively, I have deeply felt Master's mercy and greatness and the seriousness of cultivation practice. One night in my dream, Master's Fa, “...the entire cultivation process for a practitioner is one of constantly giving up human attachments.” (Zhuan Falun) was shining in front of me. I enlightened that it was Master encouraging me to let go of different attachments and strive forward vigorously.
In the spring of 2009, I went to a bank to deposit 2,000 yuan, but my bank book showed 20,000 yuan. I immediately went back to the bank to return the extra money. I always remember to be honest when I am working. When my personal benefits were lost, I didn't mind it. I always remind myself to be a truthful practitioner.
All three of my family members are now practicing Dafa. I still don't fully meet Master's requirements, but I will pay more attention to rectifying every single thought, do the three things well, and not let Master down.
