(Minghui.org) I used to be a cosmetologist. It was a good opportunity to talk to my clients about Falun Dafa when I was working on them.
All but one of my clients had learned the truth about Falun Dafa from me. That one appeared a bit arrogant and did not talk much. I never saw her smile. She had been my client for six months I had still not clarified the truth to her. I was worried I might miss my opportunity.
One day when I was giving her a treatment, I finally got the courage to explain the facts to her. She suddenly sat up and said, “Do you know what I do? My office works to bring Falun Dafa down.”
I felt a little nervous but calmed down and said, “Relax. You’ve been coming here for six months. Have I ever behaved poorly? Let me tell you about people who practice Falun Dafa.
As I did her facial mask, I told her about the Tiananmen Square self-immolation hoax, why and how the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) persecutes Falun Dafa, how it oppresses the Chinese people, that good is rewarded and evil is punished, and so on. I talked for almost an hour, and she listened patiently.
After her treatment was complete, she opened up and told me a lot. She said, “I believe what you say is true. I trust you. During the past six months, I could sense you were different. Other cosmetologists would keep promoting and trying to sell me skincare products or memberships. If I didn’t buy anything, they weren’t kind to me anymore. You’re different. You give me honest suggestions on your products and educate me about skincare. The quality of your service has always been high, and I enjoy coming here.”
She said that other practitioners had visited her at home and tried to clarify the facts, but she told them to leave. She’d also received many phone calls from overseas practitioners who’d called to explain the truth about Falun Dafa. She never wanted to listen and hung up.
She said that she believes that good will be rewarded and evil will be punished. Her brother was in the National Security Division and had arrested practitioners. His wife had cancer and the doctor couldn’t cure it. “What can we do?” she asked.
I said, “Tell your brother to stop persecuting Falun Dafa practitioners. If he can protect practitioners, he will be blessed. It would be best if he could get a different job.”
I gave her a Dafa amulet and said, “With reverence and sincerity, repeat the words on it—‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’” She agreed and said she would treasure the amulet and keep it safe.
“You also need to quit the CCP and its youth organizations,” I advised her. Doing that can keep you safe.” She agreed and wanted to quit with her real name.
She said, “As a member of the CCP, I probably know its wickedness better than you do. I just don’t dare to talk about it. Falun Dafa practitioners have never given up telling me the truth. I could feel the kindness of your hearts. You are urging people to quit the CCP for their own good.”
She gave me her CCP emblem and asked me to destroy it because I mentioned that those things were possessed by evil spirits. She asked for two more amulets for her family members.
A week later, she came to give me a list of eight family members’ real names. They all wanted to quit the CCP organizations. She promised that she would never participate in the persecution. She would soon retire. I said, “It is never too late to make up for past mistakes.”
