(Minghui.org) I obtained the Fa in 1998. Before that I had many health issues, including migraines, rheumatoid issues, stomach pain, sciatica, gynecological diseases, toothaches, dizziness, and so on. The dizziness was especially problematic, as at times I could not squat, and once I did squat down, I could not stand up. But soon after I practiced Falun Dafa, all my illnesses disappeared. The miraculous and extraordinary nature of the practice gave me not only a healthy body, but also taught me how to be a good person who is always considerate of others.
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started its persecution campaign against Falun Dafa in 1999. Master Li Hongzhi asked Dafa practitioners to clarify the truth to the world and debunk the CCP’s lies, in order to save the people who have been poisoned by those lies. That’s when I started clarifying the truth face-to-face. Master saw that I had a desire to save people, so he gave me the wisdom. I was honored to walk on the divine path of saving people.
I like to clarify the truth by integrating it into my daily life and work, and seizing the opportunity to clarify the truth anytime, anywhere. When I clarify the truth, I enter a realm of self-forgetfulness, thinking only about how to help people understand the facts and be saved, and the effect is generally good. If time permits, I chat with all kinds of people while naturally interspersing the truth about Dafa into the conversation. I make it thorough and comprehensive, and people are happy to listen. Seeing them understand the truth and be saved is my greatest happiness.
I worked for a private company in 2005. I slept in the office, got up at 3 a.m. every day to do the exercises, read Zhuan Falun, took a break at noon to read Master’s new articles, and then went out at night to clarify the truth. Life was difficult because of the low wages and having to support the family. I ate steamed buns for 50 cents every morning, and had a one-yuan lunch at noon. Since I had no money for dinner, I only spent 50 cents on tofu, or skipped dinner. At dinner, I often clarified the truth face-to-face. One day I saw hot, white steamed buns for sale, and I wanted to buy one, but I had no money. I comforted myself in my heart, knowing that the Fa will give me everything.
Clarifying the Truth at the Train Station and on the Train
My boss sent me to a company in the north in late 2005, to collect the arrears. When I got to the train station, I started clarifying the truth. When the train entered the station, I saw an elderly woman who was riding in the same carriage I was. She had two large bags of local produce, which looked heavy. She said she was going to visit her daughter, and that her son-in-law was an army officer. At that time I thought that it would be great if her whole family could learn the truth and be saved.
I helped her by carrying her bag of heavy goods in one hand, the steamed bun I was going to eat on the train in the other hand, and a bag of my own daily necessities on my back. I ran with her to the tenth carriage. When the train stopped, we found ourselves at the wrong spot. We hurried back. When the siren sounded, we were still running. Despite the cold winter weather, I was soaked in sweat.
I helped the elderly woman find her seat on the train, then went forward to find my seat. I put down the things I brought, and quickly came back to help her put away her belongings. After settling her, I told her that she should sincerely recite, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” when she encountered difficulties. I asked her to tell her daughter and son-in-law the truth about Dafa.
The elderly woman thanked me sincerely, and the passengers around me also said, “You are so nice to your mother!” I said, “We don’t know each other at all. It was my Master who taught me to be good to everyone. All of you must remember that ‘Falun Dafa is good,’ and you will have a safe journey.” Everyone said happily, “Good, good, thank you!” When I returned to my seat, I continued to talk to those around me about Falun Dafa.
Clarifying the Truth on the Bus
After getting off the train, I transferred to a bus. The bus was full of college students who were going home for the winter vacation. I talked to a girl next to me, who was beautiful and kind. I told her about Falun Dafa and the persecution for more than an hour. She understood it all and quit the CCP’s two youth organizations.
It was extremely cold when the bus arrived at the terminal. The temperature was more than twelve degrees below zero. It had just snowed in the area, and the ground was covered with ice. I was so unused to walking in the snow that I almost slipped. Seeing this, the girl said, “Auntie, slow down, don’t fall. You are not used to it. Let me help you find a hotel.” I said, “It’s so cold. Call your dad and ask him to take you home.” She said, “You are so kind. I must help you find a hotel, and then I will call my father.”
The girl’s words and deeds warmed my heart. I know that her words and deeds are her gratitude to Dafa and Dafa disciples after she understood the truth.
Clarifying the Truth in the Hotel
There were many guests at the hotel. One night, I had just finished washing up, and was about to close my door to study the Fa, when suddenly a well-dressed man in his 30s came by. He said he had been watching me for the past two days and wanted to invite me to go out with him, for example to go hiking. While politely refusing, I thought that this was a person sent by Master to hear the truth. I said to Master in my heart, “Master, I want to save him.” I talked to him for two hours and comprehensively and thoroughly interspersed the truth about Dafa into our chat. He understood, happily quit the Party, and left. I never saw him again.
Clarifying the Truth While Visiting the Company That Owed Us Debts
I also clarified the truth at the company that owed us money. Collecting debts was not a good errand. At first, the boss of the company arranged for me to eat in the company cafeteria, so I clarified the truth to two chefs who cooked there. But when I tried to collect the debt, the company owner changed his attitude. He did not offer me any more food.
One day I went to the company and asked for the money, but I got nothing. It was dark outside when I left, I hadn’t eaten or drank anything for a day, and I was cold and hungry. I didn’t know if there was a return bus at that time, so I bought some cookies at a small grocery store on the side of the road. The owner of the grocery store said there was no bus at that time.
I took off my gloves, and was about to eat the biscuits when I saw that my hands were red and swollen. Thinking about my predicament, tears started flowing from my eyes. In the cold weather, I had come again and again to ask for money, and the company that owed the debts had not given me anything. I felt so aggrieved.
Just then, a white car stopped next to me, and the driver asked me if I needed a ride. After getting into the car, I wiped away my tears while talking to him, thinking that this was an opportunity I could not miss. We talked about the corruption of the evil Party, and then about the persecution of Falun Dafa. I told him that the Tiananmen Square self-immolation was a hoax, and that Falun Dafa is a Buddha School cultivation practice, and so on. He accepted the truth and quit the Party. I knew in my heart that Master had sent the driver to me, and under Master’s protection, the driver understood the truth, and I returned to the hotel safely. I said from the bottom of my heart, “Master, it’s a blessing to be your disciple!”
Master Is Protecting Me
I stayed in the hotel for a week. On the day before I checked out, I went to the front desk to clarify the truth to the reception lady. (For safety, I purposely waited until the last day.) After I told her the truth and convinced her to quit the Party, I saw the large young man who was staying in room 303 walking towards me. He said, “You think I don’t know you. You told the janitor about Falun Dafa on the first day you came here, and she told me this. I am in charge of handling Falun Dafa. You think I don’t know you!” He then left.
Also in room 303 was another large young man. I guessed that they were state security or public security officers. In the week I was there, I successfully clarified the truth to more than 20 people under the secret surveillance of the young men. I was under Master’s compassionate care. Without it, not only could I not do anything, but even my own life was not guaranteed. I was grateful in my heart for Master’s salvation and protection.
Clarify the Truth on the Way Back
On my way back, I did not forget to clarify the truth. On the train, I stayed in a compartment with a couple and a middle-aged man. Because the trip took more than ten hours, I was not in a hurry to clarify the truth. I first said hello to them, and then started reading the Fa. After reading a lecture in Zhuan Falun, I began to chat and clarify the truth to them. I talked to the couple first because they were going to get off the train first. They agreed that Dafa is good and were very supportive. They also knew the evil nature of the CCP, but they did not dare to quit. I said to them that in the future if someone tells them to quit, they must quit.
In the evening, when the men went to buy a late-night snack, I clarified the truth to the lady and convinced her to quit the Party. The couple later disembarked, leaving me and the middle-aged man. He asked me what book I was reading. I said it was Falun Dafa’s book, Zhuan Falun. I asked him if he was a member of the CCP. He said yes. I asked him to quit with a pseudonym. He gave me a business card. I asked if he wanted to quit. He said yes.
With very little fuss, he quit the CCP using his real name. He also said that if I want to find a job in the future, I can call him and he can help. I think this is gratitude that people have for Master and Dafa practitioners after they understand the truth.
On this business trip, I seized the opportunities to talk to people from all walks of life at the train station, on the train, on the bus, at the hotel, at the company in arrears, on the return train, and so on. I convinced more than 20 people to quit the CCP. In fact, during the process, what I did was really simple; everything was actually done by Master.
With Master’s ubiquitous and merciful protection, I have been able to persist in cultivating and clarifying the truth through years of hardship up to this day. Without Master’s merciful protection, let alone clarifying the truth to save people, even my own safety would not be guaranteed. I am grateful for Master’s compassion and the suffering that Master has gone through for his disciples and sentient beings.
