(Minghui.org) During Chinese New Year I heard about the coronavirus and the subsequent lockdown of Wuhan City. I also noticed that few people were on the once-busy streets.
I didn’t know what to do. It was hard to clarify the truth to people even before the outbreak. How could we continue doing it under these conditions? I knew that many people still hadn’t been saved. From reading the experience-sharing articles on Minghui.org, I saw that I needed to do better, and I sensed the urgency of stepping forward and saving people. Master has always asked us to do this; we just need to do as Master asked.
On the fifth day of Chinese New Year, I went out. There were few people outside, and everyone kept a distance from each other. But I wasn’t discouraged. I was determined to tell people the miraculous stories about the epidemic that I had read on Minghui.
I was able to talk to one person, then two people. Each day I talked to more people. My legs started aching before the Chinese New Year and hurt even when I accidentally touched them. A few days ago I walked for nearly three hours while distributing brochures. Afterwards I was shocked that my legs no longer hurt.
I felt that I had poor enlightenment quality. I immediately knew this was encouragement from Master that I needed to go out to save people. As long as we have the heart to save people, Master will arrange for us to meet those who are predestined.
Yesterday another practitioner and I met an elderly man. I smiled and said, “You’re not wearing a mask. Aren’t you concerned?” He smiled back and said he had one but it was too hard breathe with it. I reminded him that he should still wear one just to be safe. He agreed.
Then I asked whether he’d joined the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) or any of its affiliated organizations. He said he had joined the Young Pioneers as a child. I asked whether he had heard that millions of Chinese had withdrawn their memberships in the Party. Since he had difficulty hearing, I had to talk into his ear. I said, “Many people have found that by saying, ‘Falun Dafa is good’ and ‘Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,’ they’ve been blessed.”
He said that he believed in Buddha. I said, “Even though you believe in Buddha, you still need to withdraw from the Party [because the CCP persecutes those who believe in the divine]. Then you’ll be safe when the CCP is brought to justice for its crimes.” He agreed.
On my way home, I noticed an older woman who had difficulty walking. Every few steps she had to stop and lean against the wall. Two people passed by but stayed far away from her.
I hurried over and asked, “Hi, are you okay?” She said that she didn’t feel good and her legs were a little weak. She was afraid she’d fall and hoped someone would help her cross the street to a place that had a railing about 100 meters away. She would be fine if she could hold onto the railing, but no one would help her.
I took her arm, and we chatted while we walked. She said she was 72 years old. She kept thanking me and said, “You are really a good person. Everyone else is afraid to help me.”
I told her, “I’m a Falun Dafa practitioner. Can we say, ‘Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good’ and ‘Falun Dafa is good’? There are Buddhas and Gods behind these words. If you acknowledge them, they will help you.”
I said the words again, and the lady repeated them after me. As she kept saying the words, her steps became steady. After walking another hundred steps, she was able to straighten her back and walk by herself. She didn’t need to hold onto me or the railing! She was ecstatic and kept saying, “You are really a good person! A really good person! Thank you so much!”
I handed her a little keepsake and suggested that she ask her whole family to say, “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” and “Falun Dafa is good.” She happily smiled at me and promised she would.
