I would like to share practitioner Alian’s cultivation experience and her amazing encounters. When assisting Master in Fa-rectification in this chaotic world, she has experienced the harshest hardships. Yet, she still behaved righteously. Her compassion has moved people’s hearts. Her dignity has subdued the evil forces.
Helping Practitioners in Other Villages and Forming a Better Cultivation Environment
The persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners was launched soon after Alian started practicing Falun Dafa in 1999. She was not frightened. Instead she went out to distribute Falun Dafa truth-clarifying materials, and talked to people about Falun Dafa.
In the beginning she distributed the materials by herself. Gradually, she met some local practitioners, and they distributed informational materials as a group. Later on, she read sharing articles on the Minghui website about talking to people face to face about Falun Dafa. The local practitioners decided to clarify the truth to people face to face. They did this two to three days a week for more than a decade. Many local people learned that Falun Dafa is good. The local practitioners formed one body as well.
Methods Used in Forming One Body
Clarifying the Truth to Every Household in the Village
Several practitioners went to the village as a group. They visited every household, talked to the people and distributed brochures. When they met people who were poisoned by the Chinese Communist Party’s propaganda, they talked to them as one body. This achieved a good result. Many people learned the truth.
Clarifying the Truth to the Village Officials
The village officials were the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) local cadres. They were the frontrunners in persecuting practitioners. Practitioners who held a good cultivation state went to the cadres’ homes, talked to them about Falun Dafa, the persecution, and let them know that Falun Dafa is good and practitioners are good people. The village cadres learned the truth. Every time orders from above were given, they didn’t comply and at the same time protected practitioners. During all the years of persecution, practitioners didn’t suffer any losses.
Clarifying the Truth to People in Neighboring Villages
When practitioners in neighboring villages were harassed or persecuted, Alian and her fellow practitioners visited them, went to their village cadres’ homes, and clarified the truth to them. At the same time they clarified the truth to every household in the village. Thus, they formed a good environment for the local practitioners in the neighboring villages.
Forming a Good Group Fa-study Environment
Studying the Fa is fundamental for cultivation improvement. Most of the practitioners in the villages only had a basic education, and some were illiterate. They were not able to understand the Fa well. Besides, they lived far apart from each other. The Fa study environment was not good in the beginning. In order to help practitioners have a good environment for Fa study and group sharing, Alian and other practitioners helped establish over 20 Fa study groups. There was at least one Fa study group meeting every day.
This started with one village, and gradually more and more villages used the same pattern. Now many villages and towns have joined in. The one body grew larger and stronger.
Facing the Evil and Dissolving Tribulations with Righteous Thoughts
More than 20 practitioners studied the Fa in Alian’s home one day in August of 2021. She left the door open so that more practitioners could come in. This was a loophole. Three policemen broke into the house. They were surprised when they saw so many practitioners. Alian stood up and said to the policemen with dignity, “Today is my birthday. I have invited them all to come here. Don’t touch them.” The policemen were shocked, and didn’t dare to say anything.
One of the policemen pointed to the truth-clarifying couplet on the door and asked, “Are you all practicing Falun Dafa?” Alian replied, “Yes. You see that the couplet is very good. It teaches people to be good and kind. Police are supposed to punish evil and reward kindness. We are good and kind people. You’d better do good and accumulate virtue for yourselves.” The policemen calmed down and said, “We will not arrest you because it is against our will.” Before they left, they said, “Please do not gather together with so many people.”
The practitioners visited the local cadre that night and clarified the truth to him further. The cadre said that the policemen had come to see him and rebuked him. The police asked him why there were still so many practitioners in his village during the “zero-out” campaign (a recent campaign to force every Falun Dafa practitioner on a government blacklist to renounce their belief). The cadre spoke very well of the practitioners and told the police that they were good people and gained good health after they practiced Falun Dafa and that their family relationships had shown improvement. Besides, they were involved in many charitable activities. He said to the police, “If everyone says they are good people I cannot say they are not good. Right?”
Master (Master Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Dafa) requires that Dafa practitioners form one body, and establish a cultivation environment where every practitioner compares with each other and cultivates with each other. These practitioners are truly following Master’s requirement.
