(Minghui.org) Since the persecution began in 1999, practitioners throughout China have been actively reaching out to help others learn the facts about the Communist regime's persecution of Falun Gong. They later began encouraging people take an upright stance against the persecution by renouncing the Communist Party and its affiliated organizations. The following are some personal accounts, submitted recently to the Minghui website.
(Reported from Beijing) I was talking to a woman about Falun Gong one day, and asked her if she had quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. She replied: “I did it several years ago. I was also given some of your materials. After reading them I passed them on to others.” I was very touched by her words and thanked her. My confidence grew.
As Fa-rectification is charging forward at an alarming pace, I felt my wisdom had been opened and I could more rationally clarify the facts. I treasure every minute and don't dare to slack off. I encouraged fellow practitioners who hadn't stepped forward, to go out and help to rescue sentient beings. These practitioners now confidently talk to people and encourage them to quit the CCP. Each of them is doing very well in this regard.
I know that I am safe when I am following Master's guidance, and feel at ease. When I tell people about Falun Gong, I don't look at their status or think of anything else about them. I talk to whoever I meet.
Fellow practitioners, let's cultivate diligently. We shall do what Master asks us to do and save more people.
(Reported from Henan Province) Practitioners A and B came across a well-dressed man when they went out to talk to people about Falun Gong. Practitioner A told him about the persecution and informed him that Heaven is going to eliminate the CCP, while practitioner B was sending forth righteous thoughts beside them.
The man asked practitioner A if she was a Falun Gong practitioner. Practitioner A was afraid of being reported to the police and didn't say anything. However, practitioner B was firm and confidently told him that she was a practitioner.
The man said: “Please help me to withdraw from the CCP. I'm a retired official. I know the evil deeds the CCP has committed. Falun Gong is saving people so I must ask you to help me quit the CCP.”
(Reported from mainland China) People were out collecting wild mushrooms on a mountain in our local area, as they were growing in abundance. Some practitioners asked my younger sister to help pick some. She didn't want to go because she'd rather spend her time informing people about the persecution. As the practitioners insisted, she didn't refuse and ended up going with them.
She didn't have the heart to pick up the mushrooms, and sang songs written by Falun Gong practitioners instead, as she walked along with the others. A man commented how beautiful a song was and asked her what it was. She told him that she was singing songs by Falun Gong practitioners. He asked: “Why haven't we heard of them before? Where did you learn them?” She explained how the CCP blocks the Internet and how Falun Gong has spread around the world, but only China doesn't allow people to practice. She also told him that he should quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations. The man happily agreed to quit.
(Reported from Heilongjiang Province) I went to a large supermarket one day, where it was required that customers' bags had to be sealed. I had Shen Yun Performing Arts DVDs and informational materials about Falun Gong in my bag, which I wanted to distribute. I said to the lady who seals the bags: “I don't have any goods in my bag. Do you still want to seal it?” She said she had to have a look and asked me what I had in there. I told her that there were DVDs and leaflets. She smiled at me and said: “No, I don't need to seal this bag. You can go in.”
(Reported from Heilongjiang Province) My relative and I took a taxi to another town one day. My relative worked in another city and I hadn't had a chance to tell her the facts about Falun Gong. So I took this opportunity to talk to her.
I hesitated at first because I was afraid that the taxi driver could hear our conversation, but I negated these thoughts immediately. The driver also had a predestined relationship and should be given a chance. So I started to talk about the CCP's corruption, then about the illegality of the persecution of Falun Gong. I told them that the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party revealed the evil nature of the CCP and how the rock in Pingtang County reveals Heaven's will to eliminate them. I then asked them to quit the Party and its organizations.
My relative deeply believed the CCP's lies and propaganda, and didn't want to quit. She said that I was getting political. Our conversation seemed to be in a deadlock, so I asked the taxi driver if he had quit the CCP. He told me that he had not joined the Party but was a member of the Youth League and Young Pioneers. One of his relatives practices Falun Gong and helped him to quit. He said that many of his colleagues also quit, and that his business had greatly improved after he quit the CCP.
The driver and I both encouraged my relative to withdraw from the CCP, and she finally agreed.
