(Minghui.org) My sister-in-law and I went to Beijing to celebrate another sister-in-law’s birthday in September. We headed home in the afternoon. As we waited for the bus, we saw a man standing nearby who seemed worried.

It turned out that he was from our hometown. His sister had an incurable illness, and he’d come to Beijing to buy her medicine. I took the opportunity to talk to him about Falun Dafa and the persecution and encouraged him to withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its youth organizations.

He didn’t respond, so I told him that divine beings will watch over him when he sincerely recites, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” and suggested that his sister do the same.

He still didn’t respond, so I kept talking. Then he said, “I’m going to report you to the authorities if you don’t stop talking.” I calmly replied, “You are a good person and wouldn’t do such a thing. Everything I’ve told you is true. Master Li, the founder of Falun Dafa, is here to offer salvation to mankind. Jiang Zemin, the former head of the CCP who initiated the persecution of Falun Dafa, is here to destroy people. I’m afraid there will be calamities in the future. You are still young, and you’ll be able to avoid disasters when you acknowledge that Dafa is good.”

I think my compassion disintegrated the bad elements that controlled him. He finally smiled and said he would remember what I said.

After we got on the bus, my sister-in-law said, “You scared me! We are in Beijing, and you are so bold. I wanted to hide earlier, but I now understand what you just said.” I was happy that two people learned the truth about Falun Dafa that day. Practitioners are doing the most righteous thing, and our righteous thoughts can eliminate the bad elements.

There were two empty seats in the front row of the bus. We were going to sit there, but the bus conductor—who collected payment and issued the tickets—scolded us: “You should stay home instead of running around! Those two seats are taken. Get up! Get up! Stay away from those seats!”

We moved to the side, but we didn’t see anyone sit in those seats. My sister-in-law felt nauseous, so I had her sit down in one of the seats. The conductor kept yelling profanity, but I wasn’t moved. He turned around and stared at me, and I looked back at him with kindness.

I knew that things happened for a reason. Maybe this was a tribulation by the old forces due to an attachment. The conductor took my money but didn’t give me my change. Other riders looked to see if we were going to fight with him. If I were not a practitioner, I probably would have fought back.

Three women got on the bus at the next stop, and the conductor scolded them, too, making everyone nervous. I tried to stop him and asked my sister-in-law to give up her seat. One of the women politely declined and said she would stand. So my sister-in-law and another woman sat down, and things started to calm down.

I seized the opportunity and said, “You were all scolded for being late. The conductor almost started a fight over saving you ladies these seats.”

People on the bus laughed. I said, “I’m a Falun Dafa practitioner, and Master Li teaches us to be good people. I believe there will be more disasters, natural and man-made, in the future, and mankind is to blame. Divine beings will protect good people. And sincerely reciting, ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good’ will keep one safe.”

I told the woman that chose to stand, “You probably joined the Young Pioneers and wore a red scarf. Do you know that will bring you bad luck? China was once called ‘the Land of the Divine.’ The CCP is an atheistic entity and does not allow people to have spiritual beliefs. Jiang Zemin is responsible for the CCP persecuting Falun Dafa, so divine beings will eliminate the CCP. By quitting the Party and its youth organizations, one will be blessed.”

The woman renounced her membership in the CCP and agreed to tell her friends and family about it.

Before we got off the bus, I said to the driver, “It’s a good thing you didn’t go along with the conductor. Don’t forget to say, ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’ I wish you a safe trip.” The bus driver concurred.

When we were about to get off the bus, the conductor gave me the change he owed me and said, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” After we got off the bus, people on and off the bus could still hear him shouting the auspicious phrases.

I was touched by what I saw and heard. When I refrained from fighting back and talked to people with compassion, Dafa’s mighty power purified people’s thoughts. I watched the bus leave and was pleased that people understood the goodness of Falun Dafa.
