(Minghui.org) A few years ago, I felt that I was in imminent danger of arrest and would face a potential prison term. Before the police arrived, I asked a close friend, not a practitioner, to safeguard all my Falun Dafa materials, including several hundred copies of Minghui publications.
She agreed without hesitation and said that she would distribute the materials. I was at a loss of words. After all, I had been detained twice before and served a total of six years in a forced labor camp and prison. After a show trial, I was taken to a prison.
After I was released, she invited me for breakfast. She told me that she contacted a number of practitioners to rescue me, and she also made phone calls to challenge the jail supervisor on my behalf. I was touched by her pure heart.
When I asked her about the materials, she said quietly: “I handed them out long ago.” Although she did not think it was a big deal, I was deeply touched and broke out in tears.
Historian Sima Qian wrote in his famous “Records of the Grand Historian: “Ji Bu’s promise is better than one hundred pounds of gold.”
My feeling at the moment about my friend’s promise is “A promise kept is worth ten thousand pound of gold.” Although not a practitioner, she did the most righteous thing in the world.
