(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Gong practitioners, a group of people who act in accordance with the principle of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, have been enduring this terrible persecution for 13 years, often chased by local police officers who are unaware of the truth. Many practitioners have been forced to leave their homes to avoid persecution. In the midst of all this, strangers have invited them to stay in their homes. The following are several such examples.
1. “Come to my home. You can share my daughter's room.”
One practitioner could not go back to her rented house because her roommate had been illegally arrested and she did not return for several days. The girl was pushing her bicycle with her sleeping mat and covers on it and wandered aimlessly on countryside roads one spring day. Two women who were on their way to dig up vegetables came along. One of them asked the girl about herself and then said, "I know Falun Gong is good because my father who lived in Yanggu City learned it. I live in this village. If you have no place to live, you may come to my house and stay in my daughter's room."
2. “As soon as Falun Gong regains its good reputation, we will come to your house to have a meal to celebrate.”
A lady who worked in an education department visited a Falun Gong practitioner and told her that many of her friends were thinking about her. When she saw this girl, she said sadly, "It's hard to imagine how you have lived through all of the troubles. Once the Fa-rectification time arrives for Falun Gong practitioners, we shall all come to your house to have a meal to celebrate! If you have no place to live, you can either stay at my mother's house or at my mother-in-law's house." Only people like this woman, who know the truth know in these times, know that many practitioners have been secretly taken away. Many practitioners have been jailed and dismissed from their jobs.
3. "Falun Gong practitioners are all good people. If even 100 practitioners come to stay, I don't believe that is too many."
There is a little house in the countryside that is not very fancy, but it is very warm and peaceful. Many homeless Falun Gong practitioners have stayed in the house, and many of them recounted their experiences of being severely persecuted. After hearing these practitioners' stories, the homeowner, an old lady in her 70s, said angrily, "What's wrong with the Chinese Communist Party? Why do they persecute good people and force them leave their homes!"
In order to avoid trouble, practitioners who stayed in her house arrived in her village after dark. When she heard a knock at the door, the lady would immediately call her husband to open the door and then she would get busy cooking for the guests. Upon seeing new faces, she avoided doing or saying anything that would scare them or make them feel in any way ashamed. She asked no questions, and always said, "I would not take in a murderer, robber, or a thief, not even one of them. But Falun Gong practitioners are all good people. If even 100 practitioners came to my home, that wouldn't be too many!"
The lady's son and grandson also had sympathy for the Falun Gong practitioners. They kept quiet to outsiders about their hosting practitioners in order to keep them safe. Although they hosted many practitioners, even their wives did not know about it. Several years passed, and many of the practitioners who had previously stayed in her house came back, one after another. They came back to visit the lady and her family. The lady has since died, but the younger generation in her family still warmly welcomes practitioners and shows them kindness. They recall that when the old lady was still alive, she had kept repeating, “Where are you?”
4. They chose good futures for themselves
In one village, the head of the village never helped arrest even one Falun Gong practitioner. When the persecution was very intense and the local police were staying in his house, he would say that he had to go to buy cigarettes, then rush to the Falun Gong practitioners' house in his village to give them a message. Later he said, "How long shall I remain as a village official? Why would I persecute the honest and kind Falun Gong practitioners who are also my neighbors and village folk!"
One countryside police station chief showed his deep regrets and sympathy toward Falun Gong practitioners after he realized that Falun Gong practitioners were acting in accordance with the principle of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.
One officer from the city police department said after he learned the truth, "Now I understand that nowadays, such things as burning books and killing scholars are still happening!" From then on he stopped participating in the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners, and instead protected them.
To all kind people everywhere: You are choosing a good future for yourselves. You won't be forgotten by history, and your descendants will receive good rewards due to your kind deeds. You protect kind people because of your good conscience. Compared to you good people, the officials should feel ashamed because they treat the citizens as if they were dirt. This includes those officials who blindly follow the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) and those who want to get promoted by persecuting those who believe in Falun Dafa!
Falun Gong practitioners distribute pamphlets. What they do does not to cause "trouble" for anyone. They know the CCP is very rotten, that it does all kinds of bad deeds, and that its time is almost up. The CCP will be wiped out by higher beings. These Falun Gong practitioners risk persecution, use their own money to print out informational pamphlets, and tell the truth to everyday people, including you. We hope that you can distinguish the truth from the lies, keep your kind thoughts, and walk your own life paths honorably!
