(Clearwisdom.net) At the final stage of Fa-rectification, genuine Falun Dafa practitioners are all diligent, looking inwards, doing the three things well, and doing their best to fulfill their own responsibilities. However, I would like to relate several incidents, as encouragement to fellow practitioners that only read at home and do not come out to do the three things.
A man that used to practice lives near my home. Before his retirement, he always exchanged views with young colleagues and fellow practitioners. He also took and read Teacher's new articles, the "Minghui Weekly," booklets, and all sorts of truth-clarification materials. After he retired, he took another job as a security guard in the city, where the work environment favored his practice very much. After July 20, 1999, he had not dared to practice the exercises at home. However, since he had a job working at night, he was able to practice the exercises and study the Fa, as well as go out to hand out materials. He thought that Teacher had arranged this practice environment for him and that he had to cherish it, but then he decided he had gotten it with the help of his relatives. Later he had a grandson, became busy at work and with housework, and no longer paid much attention to practice. He stopped picking up and reading different materials, and he slowly left the practice environment and moved back home. Sometimes he came to look at his vegetable garden but did not pick up any materials. I met him once and asked about him, but he seemed to be afraid others would see him, so he said a few simple words and left in a hurry. Since I had been arrested by the police during that time, he said a few things that came from his enlightenment on an evil path. I was really sad when I watched him walk away.
Then he developed illness karma but still did not enlighten, and as a result he went to the hospital, which meant that he already led the life of an average man! He was not the only practitioner who was afraid of taking materials. How worried Teacher must be!
I know another practitioner that often comes out to clarify the truth. I want to tell about her in hopes that those practitioners who are staying at home and are unable to step out will study the Fa more and will use their wisdom given by Teacher to tell the truth, and distribute materials. It is really not difficult; the key is whether they have the heart and wish to do so.
When I went to this practitioner's home, she told me about the many miracles that occurred when she distributed truth-clarification materials. One night at about 3 a.m., she carried a big bag of materials and went to the neighboring countryside on her bike. She left materials at several homes, and it was relatively quiet. When she went into the village, she saw a group of teenagers playing hide-and-seek. She wondered: "It is already 3 a.m. How come so many children are not asleep and are running around? What do I do?" She originally had planned to go home after handing out all the materials. For safety reasons, she thought that she would just go again the next night. She was about to turn back, when, after only a few steps, she felt that it was not right, and thought: "Haven't I come in vain tonight? No, people here are waiting for me to save them. This must be an illusion, and I do not acknowledge the old forces' arrangements." As soon as she had this thought, she looked back and noticed that all the children were gone and it was very quiet in the village. She felt warmth in her heart and knew that Teacher had helped her, so she quickly left materials at every household, until all of them were gone. After she returned home, she recalled her point of view in distributing materials: the first one was caused by her fear, and the latter one was a practitioner's righteous thoughts.
One time when she distributed materials in her village, her husband, who cares about her, quietly followed her when she went out. When she noticed him, she kept going, although she noticed that he had stopped and was looking around in all directions. In the center of the village, the dogs in every home suddenly started to bark wildly, but she kept distributing materials while sending forth righteous thoughts. She thought: "I must finish distributing these materials." Regardless of how much the dogs barked, she distributed materials until they were gone. She returned home, and her husband said: "You are back. It is strange. As soon as you left, I followed you, but I could not see you out there. I looked everywhere, but I did not see you--you walked so fast." Only then did she understand why her husband had looked in all directions--it was because he could not see her, but she could see him. She knew Teacher had helped her. She was very stable and pure at that time, did not have any bad thoughts or human notions, and only wanted to save people. The following day, people in her village talked with the materials in their hands. One said, "I heard dogs barking wildly last night. I feared it was a thief, but when I opened the window, I saw nobody." Another one said, "I also came out to look, but saw nothing." Still another one said, "I saw three people passing by my home, one man pushing a bike, and two women walking together." When this practitioner heard them, she again experienced that Teacher was beside her and had protected her.
I hope this practitioner's miraculous experiences encourage other practitioners who have not come forward, because time waits for no one. We are practicing such a universal Dafa, which does not appear in thousands of years, even ten thousand years. From Teacher's lectures, we also know that the Fa-rectification process has come to its final stage. There is not much time left: what attachments can't we let go of? If we do not grasp it now, when we lose this opportunity, regrets will be useless. Fellow practitioners, let's strive forward together! Do not be idle again, do not be numb, do not wait for anything, and quickly awaken! Solidly study the Fa well, improve, and do the three things well. Let's honor our great wish to come here. Please treasure and grasp the final opportunity and move fearlessly ahead!
