(Minghui.org) During ten plus years of truth clarification, I have met people with different kinds of mentalities. My experience of truth clarification is that the process of truth clarification is also a process of cultivating and improving xinxing.

Master said:

“Validate the Fa with rationality, clarify the truth with wisdom, spread the Fa and save people with mercy...” (“Rationality” from Essentials for Further Advancement II)

While browsing the merchandise in a clothing store, I noticed that the owner was very good with her customers – kind and patient. I was impressed, and felt she was a good person, and I wanted to talk to her about Falun Dafa. I returned to the store another day when she was not as busy, and struck up a conversation with her. I complimented her on the clothes she was selling. She said they were imported.

I then changed the subject and began to talk about Falun Dafa. I told her that remembering “Falun Dafa is good” can help improve her business. After bringing up this subject she changed her attitude. Her voice rose as she said to me sternly, “I thought I was going to like you, but then you had to bring up Falun Dafa. In Hong Kong, I saw many people with Dafa materials. I don't want to hear it.” I told her Falun Dafa is the Buddha Fa, and that we cultivate to be good people. She escorted me to the door and nearly pushed me out. She said, “Don't talk about it here.”

Well that certainly wasn't what I was expecting. I felt she was hopeless, and decided to give up on her. During my Fa study, Master's Fa teaching lingered in my mind. Master said, “Dafa disciples are now sentient beings’ only, sole hope for salvation.” (“Righteous Thoughts” from The Essentials of Diligent Progress Vol. III)

I looked within myself, and realized that I hadn't eliminated her evil thoughts before clarifying the truth to her. I strengthened my righteous thoughts and decided to try again to reach her. This time, when I went to see her, I stayed outside the store and sent forth righteous thoughts first. After a bit she spotted me and invited me in the store. I then talked to her about Falun Dafa. She paid attention and then agreed to withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party.

Some time later, I returned to her store. I asked her to remember that 'Falun Dafa is good' with all her heart. She smiled as she responded, “Falun Dafa is in my heart.” I was happy for her. She was saved.
