(Clearwisdom.net) It is the custom in a certain area of Mainland China to hold a yearly village folk activity to worship the gods around Chinese New Year's Day. This activity is extraordinarily lively, and many people who work far away hurry back to their hometown to reunite with family members, worship the gods, and pray for a new year full of happiness.
Last year, after Dafa disciples displayed two Falun Dafa truth clarification banners saying, "Life needs Zhen-Shan-Ren," the hometown people welcomed them wholeheartedly. Many everyday people came to understand the truth and were saved by Dafa. This year the person in charge, who has understood the truth, personally invited Dafa disciples to participate in the parade activity. He told them to embroider their best words of blessing. Practitioners realized they should tell people directly that "Zhen-Shan-Ren" is the genuine Buddha Fa, so they embroidered "Buddha Fa in the World" on one side of the banner and "Zhen-Shan-Ren Persists Forever" on the other. All the characters were done in glittering gold. It was indeed "Buddha's light shines everywhere."
The entire parade procession lasted two days and passed through more than 18 villages. Many everyday people, policemen, and village cadres as well as public security personnel saw the magnificence of "Zhen-Shan-Ren." Some of the spectators read out loud, "Zhen-Shan-Ren Persists Forever," and also ran around to see the other side of the banner, "Buddha Fa in the world." They exclaimed, "Your banner has really deep meaning. If everybody truly practiced 'Zhen-Shan-Ran,' how wonderful it would be!"
Some students, after they understood the truth revealed by Dafa disciples, helped to hand out the blessing cards.
Seeing so many beings coming to understand the truth, the Dafa disciples felt really happy for their having a glorious future. They also were even more aware of Dafa and Master's boundless compassion and mighty grace.
