(Clearwisdom.net) I live in a small city in northeastern China with a population of about 100,000. I have heard many times about non-Falun Gong practitioners talking about how Dafa has widely spread outside China, and about the stories of overseas Dafa practitioners validating the Fa. They are spreading the truth of Dafa to the world's people, just like the "mobile media" that Teacher talked about. I was deeply encouraged after hearing their stories.
The first time I heard about the situation of overseas Dafa practitioners validating the Fa was when the evil persecution was in its maddest stage. A colleague in my work unit publicly spoke about the situation. He said, "My brother is a sailor and has been to many countries. There are many people in foreign countries practicing Falun Gong. Falun Gong is allowed in every country except China. This is strange." His comments made many people think.
Another person who had been to Hong Kong brought back a copy of the "Nine Commentaries on Communist Party". He said a child gave it to him. The book was then passed on to the hands of us Dafa practitioners. We could see that it was a well-made casebound copy, better than the copies we printed.
A while ago, a Dafa practitioner talked to two retired Chinese Communist Party (CCP) members, one male and one female. The practitioner first talked about the evil communist party's history. Then he explained further why the persecution of Falun Gong was wrong. The male party member said that the Party had been good when it was first established. The female party member asked him, "How can you say that it had been good? Falun Gong people have done nothing, yet the CCP suppresses them at full force. I have seen Falun Gong when visiting overseas. They were doing nothing except peacefully appeal with their hands raised up. In what period has the party been good?" The Dafa practitioner witnessed the whole scene. He has seen the awakened side of the world's people. I think that the female party member must have learned a lot of the truth while she was visiting overseas. Her soul must have been deeply shaken for her to be able to speak so courageously.
Recently I heard that a person had been to South Korea. After coming back, he said to another Dafa practitioner, "Falun Gong's truth-clarification materials are everywhere in South Korea." His comments were full of admiration for Dafa practitioners.
The above are the conversations I heard about, of people talking about overseas Dafa practitioners validating the Fa. They might have said even more to their relatives and friends.
All of these happened just like Teacher said:
"When they see the situation with Dafa around the world they'll talk about it when they're in China, talk about it with their family and friends--they're a form of one- on-one media. Regardless of how much they understand about Dafa, whether they're able to comprehend it or not, they'll go back and tell people about the situation." ("Explaining the Fa During the 2003 Lantern Festival at the U.S. West Fa Conference")
"The truth is, Dafa disciples, in supporting the Fa-rectification, your righteous thoughts and righteous actions have already made the persecution draw closer to the end."("Teaching the Fa at the 2004 International Fa Conference in New York")
The reason why I wrote about these stories of overseas Dafa practitioners validating the Fa and positively influencing everyday people is also to remind fellow practitioners who haven't done well. Even people who don't cultivate are spreading the truth proactively, so what should a Dafa practitioner do?
Let us not forget our own vows made in prehistory. Let all practitioners inside and outside China take the initiative to act together to fulfil our grand mission of helping Teacher, supporting the Fa-rectification and saving sentient beings.
