(Minghui.org) In the southwestern border of China, there’s a beautiful region called Xishuangbanna. It’s characterized by scenic mountains and rivers, ancient forests, and a rich culture. The population consists of hardworking, kind, and honest people from 12 different ethnic minorities. For generations, people in this area have been waiting for the spread of Falun Dafa, hoping to receive salvation during the end times of the universe’s cycle of destruction.
A fellow practitioner, Amei, and I traveled by car to Xishuangbanna to share information about Dafa with predestined people. This journey brought us immense joy and left a lasting impression that we’ll never forget.
It was a sunny, breezy day, when we arrived at Jinghong City, the capital of Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture. We stayed at the spacious, bamboo home of Yi Jin, a Dai woman. Her family consisted of five members who were very kind and hospitable. Everyone smiled and greeted us by pressing their palms together in front of their chest and saying “welcome!”
They then served us prepared dishes, which included glutinous rice wrapped in banana leaves. I said, “Thank you so much sister! I would like to share a secret that can help you avoid calamities. Please remember, ‘Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!’”
I gave everyone in the family an amulet and said, “The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has done so many bad things, and the divine will soon settle accounts with it! By understanding the truth, you can stay safe and have a bright future.” Amei then talked about the “Hidden Character Stone,” the staged “Tiananmen Square Self-immolation,” the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre, and how Jiang Zemin, the former head of the CCP, betrayed China.
Yi Jin’s family listened attentively. After discussing the importance of quitting the CCP, the entire family decided to withdraw from the CCP and its youth organizations. Yi Jin’s husband, who had been a member of the CCP during his time in the army, expressed, “After listening to you, I understand everything. Our Dai people have believed in and respected Buddha for generations. The CCP slanders and harms people who believe in Buddha. I want to quit!”
We came across several girls wearing colorful, embroidered belts. We approached them and asked, “Girls, the colorful clothes you’re wearing are beautiful. Did you embroider them yourselves?” They replied, “Yes, we made them ourselves.” I took out some amulets from my bag and gave each of them one, “We embroidered these ourselves. They’re inscribed with ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’ If you wear one and sincerely recite these nine words, you’ll be able to stay safe and have a bright future.” They looked surprised and exclaimed, “They’re so precious! Thank you so much!” I also told them to recite the auspicious phrase often. They replied, “Of course, of course, we will!”
Five more girls then stopped by. Amei told them about how withdrawing from the CCP and its youth organizations will ensure one's safety. They all agreed to quit using their real names. They pressed their palms together in reverence, “Thank you!” We replied, “It’s actually our Master who asks us to save people. You should thank him.” They pressed their palms together again, “Thank you, Dafa’s Master!”
As we were talking, a young man came over. He was neatly dressed and looked exceptionally handsome. He carried an embroidered bag on his back and wore an embroidered scarf. I inquired about his ethnicity, and he replied, “I’m from the Aini ethnic group and live in the Aini village. I overheard everything you just said. It was great! I know you’re here to save us. The Master of Falun Dafa asked you to come and save the ethnic minorities here. We cannot miss this opportunity. My family and best friends are in the Aini village. Can you help them?”
I responded, “Of course. Please call them and share the information. As long as they understand the truth, they can be saved.” The man then made several phone calls and spoke in the Aini language. Afterward, he said, “My friends and family are very willing to withdraw from the CCP.” In total, five people wanted to declare their withdrawals.
Although Xishuangbanna is full of breathtaking sights, we had no intention of exploring them. The next day, we went to the market and the streets to spread the truth and save more predestined people.
The market was filled with vibrant costumes and daily necessities from various ethnic groups. The vendors were very hospitable and enthusiastic. I overheard them saying: “Two friendly northerners have come today.” We greeted them warmly. They responded, “Welcome and be our guests!” We told them about the importance of withdrawing from the CCP organizations to ensure their safety and gave them amulets. They eagerly accepted the gifts and reminded us to be careful. I replied, “Thanks for your concern!”
During those days, we also had met an older man from the Yao ethnic group, an older woman from the Yi ethnic group, someone from the Lahu ethnic group, as well as sisters from the Achang ethnic group. They were all kind and friendly. Many of them chose to withdraw from the CCP. Amei and I were happy for them from the bottom of our hearts.
During this trip, we experienced an indescribable joy in our hearts. We understand that all of this is made possible by Master Li, who is compassionately saving the predestined individuals in Xishuangbanna. We merely perform our duties and share the message. Each step we take is supported by Master's compassionate protection.
This journey has deepened our understanding of the extraordinary nature of cultivating Dafa and the joy of assisting Master in saving people. We must cherish this precious time, fulfill our responsibilities, and do the three things well.
