Greetings Teacher!
Greetings Fellow Practitioners!

After a fellow practitioner heard that there was not enough manpower to clarify the truth overseas, he had a thought of going overseas and he invited us to go along. At that time, this practitioner and several of us were "key targets for monitoring." After discussion, we decided to openly go through the process of obtaining paperwork to go abroad. We mainly kept two things in mind. First, do not treat anything which happens during the process as an ordinary matter, but to validate the Fa as a practitioner. Second, we added a thought during the regular sending forth righteous thought to eliminate any interference.

During the process of obtaining our passports, we always looked inward and kept sending forth righteous thoughts. We obtained our passports smoothly. Two days before we left, there was interference caused by the old forces. One of our relatives called me and said, "We all know what you are doing. Don't make trouble, your names are on the blacklist and you would not be able to get out... It is a waste of money and time. Even if you do leave, you don't have much money and your life will be miserable." During the conversation, his words were intense with both persuasion and threats. When he saw that I was not moved, he threw a fit. He scolded me harshly and hung up the telephone. Then, several phone calls from other relatives with the same kind of attitude came and I realized the conflicts were intense.

My wife, also a practitioner, asked me what we should do. I said that we should calm down and measure things with the Fa. I folded up my legs and tried to keep my mind calm. At the same time I tried to recall if I disrespected others during the phone conversation. After eliminating other reasons, I reassured myself that this was the old forces' interference. Moreover, this kind of regional limitation was also one of the evil's persecution methods, because it tried to limit us under its control so as to further persecute us. We decided not to think too much about the result and go with our original plan. No matter whether we could go abroad or not, so long as our action and right thoughts denied the old force's arrangement and persecution, this would turn out to be a significant event. On the day that we left, we sent forth righteous thoughts nearly nonstop from early morning to the evening. With Teacher's support, we arrived abroad smoothly.

Under the loose environment abroad, we should play better roles as Dafa practitioners. Travelers go to the scenic spots: the Malacca Old City, the Black Wind Tunnel, Independence Square, and the lighted night market as well as the Chinese populated areas are important places for us to clarify the truth. We mainly distribute the Chinese Epoch Times newspaper, the truth-clarification materials and the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. Later, we added some truth-clarification booklets from the Minghui/Clearwisdom website.

Teacher has told us in Zhuan Falun,

"Wandering around in society is rather torturous. It must beg for food and meet different kinds of people who will scold, insult, or take advantage of it. It might encounter all kinds of things. It will treat itself as a practitioner and balance well relations with others, always maintaining and upgrading xinxing."

During truth-clarification, we often ran into situations that tested our hearts, especially when encountering people who were brainwashed by the CCP's propaganda. They said many kinds of things - some cursed and some even tried to beat us.

At the beginning, I easily reacted with anger and tried to argue with them, or didn't know what to do and felt they could not be saved, or could not settle my heart. If we could not maintain our xinxing, the peaceful and compassionate environment would be disturbed and the effect of the truth clarification was not good. When these kind of things happened, we normally knew how to handle it. It was a true xinxing test as to whether we could truly keep our heart unmoved and continue to clarify the facts peacefully and compassionately, and eventually resolve their misunderstanding and questions.

Through Fa study, we know that all the sentient beings are here for the Fa. The history of the Three Realms was made to save sentient beings and every sentient being's knowing side all anxiously wanted to know the truth. With this Fa principle in mind, we no longer reacted excitedly when we encountered this kind of people. We directly targeted their knowing side from our hearts and kept our minds on their Buddha side. Another point is sending forth righteous thoughts for truth clarification. For example, before leaving somewhere to clarify the facts, we send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil's interference at that location. While telling people the facts, other practitioners who stood nearby sent forth righteous thoughts. When we left the place, we sent forth righteous thoughts so that the sentient being who received the materials would understand the truth.

Besides distributing materials, we should also eliminate their misunderstanding and questions with clear explanations of the principles. Once we break the blockage in their minds, many Chinese exhibited their knowing side and showed their understanding and support towards us. For example, someone said, "China is very strong now, why do you still talk about the bad things about China?" We told him, "We are from China, we know the true situation there. The impression of a strong China is from the false propaganda. This superficial economical prospect is actually a bubble economy resulting from the excessive plundering of natural resources and morality." Then I would tell him the real examples of some people's suffering. Finally, I mention that the Chinese regime does not care about the overseas Chinese, using a riot that happened in Indonesia in 1998 as an example. Some overseas Chinese's suffering was due to the Chinese Communist regime. We then talked about the persecution of Falun Gong. After listening to all of the stories, most Chinese were shocked and showed sympathy.

Some people said, "That is China, it does not matter to me [here in Malaysia]. If the dog does not bite me, why should I pay attention to it?" We would ask him, "That dog does not bite you today, would you guarantee that it would not bite you tomorrow or the day after tomorrow? That dog does not bite you, would you guarantee that it would not bite your descendants? In history, the Chinese Communist regime supported the Malaysia Chinese Communist Party. Now, since the Malaysia Chinese Communist Party is gone, the CCP has penetrated into Malaysia's economics and culture. It financed the mainstream Chinese media here. The Chinese people like to read the Chinese newspaper. The CCP frequently utilize it to influence their thinking and to communize their thoughts. When the communized people were elected as government officials, they would use the communist way to govern people here. How could you say that the CCP's existence is irrelevant to you? The CCP does not allow its people to value morals and to have spiritual beliefs, but only let them to think of making more money. Therefore, some people would do anything to make money. Some Chinese women came here to be prostitutes and their families were affected." This was often in getting people to think twice about their position.

Some people said, "Why do you talk badly about China?" We answered their questions. "What is true patriotism? If you truly love your country, you would love your people and give them better lives, and offer them happiness and less suffering. Loving China is not to love the CCP, the CCP does not represent China. The CCP has been killing its people during the Great Cultural Revolution and during the June 4^th Tiananmen Massacre. Now they are persecuting Falun Gong. The CCP is a murderer, loving it is like loving a murderer ......" Some people do not understand us and scolded us for betraying our country. We then said to him, "Who is a traitor? You cannot sell out the country, I cannot sell out the country either because we are ordinary people. Only those who control the the national resources and the ones in authority can betray the country. Jiang Zemin gave away approximately 1,600,000 square kilometers (this does not include Outer Mongolia), about the size 40 times of Taiwan, to Russia. That was really betraying the country."

Someone also asked, "Why did you have to tell me these things?" We told him, "We told you the facts but did not ask you to become one of us. Many people have heard the false propaganda from the CCP. They're lies. The CCP has always deceived its people with propaganda first and then started its brutal persecution. If people believed its lies, it would generate an environment for the lies to spread and would help the CCP to persecute kind people, assisting the persecution. We tell you the facts so that you know the real situation and won't be deceived by the CCP. If people no longer believe it, there won't be a place to spread its lies, so the persecution would lessen or no longer continue. Thus it is important for you to understand the truth." Most people understood after listening and seriously said, "I will go back and carefully read the materials."

By studying the Fa, we understand that the whole universe is undergoing Fa rectification but the old forces still think they are doing the Fa rectification and are arranging everything, including the persecution of practitioners, and the salvation or the elimination of sentient beings. Now the old forces are gone but their arranged elements are still in effect. As for how to thoroughly deny the old forces, I enlightened on two points.

Teacher taught us, "The entire cultivation process for a practitioner is one of constantly giving up human attachments." (Zhuan Falun) Whether or not there is any interference from the old forces, we should try to get rid of our attachments according to the standard of the Fa. Looking inward and eliminating our attachments are not walking the path arranged by the old forces or trying to avoid persecution. On the contrary, it is to assimilate to the Fa according to Fa's standard and denying the old forces. When the old forces did bad deeds, they found practitioners' loopholes or used practitioners' attachments as excuses. I understand that we should have a firm attitude on thoroughly eliminating attachments. Many times, it is not because we did not find our attachments or we did not study the Fa long enough, but it is because we could not get rid of the attachments quickly or thoroughly, so we improved slowly and our ability and wisdom of repressing the evil also were restricted.

"Heaven destroys the CCP to end the persecution." This sentence has been said many times. Who is going to disintegrate the CCP, the universe's largest evil? Who is going to end the persecution? Should we wait for the old forces' arrangement for disintegrating the CCP to end the persecution? A while back, prophecies were spread on the Internet such as when the earthquake would happen, the CCP would disintegrate in a disaster before the Olympics and what would happen in the year after next year. The prophecies were even spread among practitioners, which stirred up human notions. The old cosmos and the elements arranged by the old forces must be thoroughly denied. This historical event, disintegrating the CCP, the universe's largest evil, should be led by practitioners with righteous thoughts, because practitioners' righteous thoughts are important components of heaven's wishes.
