(Minghui.org) After finishing my work one afternoon in 2020, I was on my way home when I noticed a banner hanging under the display window of a bank, spreading slanderous lies about Dafa. I was shocked. How many people would see this poison every day, deceiving them with the lies, and preventing them from achieving salvation! As a Dafa disciple, I knew that seeing this was not a coincidence. That night, I would remove it.
When I got home, I told my wife, also a practitioner. She said, “Tonight, other practitioners are coming to study the Fa at our home. Let’s discuss with them how we can remove the banner.” I agreed.
After other practitioners arrived, I explained the situation and sought their opinions. One practitioner said, “You should handle this. You know the location and what tools to bring. After we finish studying the Fa and go home, we will send righteous thoughts for you, asking Master to strengthen your righteous thoughts.” I replied, “Tonight, I will remove the banner; you can expect good news from me!”
After Fa study, everyone went home. My wife and I sent righteous thoughts, asking Master to strengthen our righteous thoughts. After midnight, I gathered my tools and left for the location where the banner was located. Along the way, I continued to ask for Master’s help. As the night grew quiet, I quickly found the bank where the slanderous banner was hanging.
Upon arrival, I first observed the surroundings. The banner was within reach, without needing to raise my hands too high, but there was a camera on each side of it. There was also a security person walking back and forth on the other side of the window, making it difficult to remove the banner without being noticed. With no other options, I had to wait for the right moment.
I glanced at the banner, then at the cameras, and watched the security person pacing inside back and forth. My mind raced with various thoughts. What if the security guard spots me during the operation tonight? What if the cameras capture me? The consequences would be unimaginable.
The more I thought, the more frightened I became. My mind was overwhelmed by fear-inducing substances and negative factors, and the thoughts in my mind were all about my own safety.
My legs began to tremble, and my entire body started to shake. I remembered Master and asked Master to strengthen me. Suddenly, I felt my mind swiftly turning over, and I immediately thought, why was I just thinking about my own safety and ignoring the safety of others? If I don’t remove it tonight, how many sentient beings would continue to be harmed by it? It must be removed immediately. With Master and Dafa by my side, what do I have to fear? The one who truly fears is not myself. It’s the evil fearing the exposure and destruction of its fabricated illusions. I am a Dafa disciple walking the divine path—why should I fear them? Can a fearful heart accomplish the mission of assisting Master in rectifying the Fa and saving sentient beings?
I asked Master to cover me with a shield so the cameras couldn’t see me and the security person couldn’t see me either. I asked Master to strengthen me. It’s truly miraculous that my legs stopped shaking, my body stopped trembling, and the fear in me disappeared. I looked again and saw that the security person had walked away. Master saw my change and saw that I was thinking about saving sentient beings, and paved the way for me.
I walked up to the window, used a knife to cut down the slanderous banner, and disappeared into the vast night.
Reflecting on the situation afterwards, I realized: As a Dafa disciple cultivating during the Fa-rectification period, I must have complete faith in Master and Dafa in order to have righteous thoughts and actions. Only then can I walk correctly and well on the divine path paved by Master.
