(Minghui.org) Once I ran into a person in our city square. He was in his 40s, well-dressed. I guessed that he was a government official. I spoke to him and tried to tell him about the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)’s persecution of Falun Dafa. He refused to listen, shaking his head and waving his hands, and then left. I came across him again in the square a few days later, and said, “We meet here again. I have some important things to tell you.” He did not want to listen either.
Later, I saw him for the third time at the square. At that moment, I couldn’t hold my tears, feeling sorry for such a precious life to refuse the truth. He was touched and shed tears too, “Don’t cry. I understand that your intentions are truly for my well-being.” I was happy for his change of attitude and clarified the truth to him. Not only did he use his real name to quit the CCP, but also told me where he worked and gave me his cell phone number. He asked me to call him if I needed any help in the future.
This gentleman was one of more than 200,000 people I had successfully persuaded to quit the CCP and its two junior organizations during the past ten some years.
I am in my 60s. I took up Falun Dafa in 1997 and all of my illnesses disappeared shortly afterwards. My body was light and energetic. Master also opened up my wisdom, allowing an illiterate person like me who could not even write my own name, to read more than 40 books of Master’s teaching and recite the book Zhuan Falun, Falun Dafa’s main book.
After the CCP began the persecution of Dafa in July 1999, I firmly upheld my belief in Dafa and have persisted in doing the three things Master asked us to do, never slacking off. Since the release of the book Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, I went out to tell people the facts of Dafa and exposed the evilness of the CCP every day, rain or shine. I persuaded them to withdraw from the CCP and its two youth organizations for the past ten-some years.
To effectively clarify the truth to people, I purify myself and eliminate the interference by studying the Fa well, doing the exercises diligently and sending righteous thoughts with concentration.
While talking to people, I always maintain a compassionate and peaceful mind. I set for myself the following regimen: doing all five sets of Dafa exercises every day with accurate movements (if I’m unable to do it occasionally, I will make it up the next day); studying one to two lectures of Zhuan Falun every day and find time to study Master’s other lectures if possible; and sending forth righteous thoughts four times every day without missing any. I also try my best to play my role in daily life well, doing my household chores well and balancing relationships well with other family members.
I use all of my spare time for saving people. On days with good weather, I talked to people on the streets, or other outdoor public spaces; on bad weather days, I went to the bus station waiting rooms, stores, or workers’ rest areas in construction sites. When I participated in special occasions of relatives or friends, I talked to people on the way, and the guests at the events.
I am an ordinary housewife with an average look. But I always pay attention to my appearance before walking out of the house to make sure I look tidy and presentable. I remembered Master’s teaching and treated everyone I met the same, regardless of their gender, age, or profession. I took the initiative to say hello and directly spoke about the beauty of Dafa, and the CCP’s evil doing. Normally, people would understand me after a short talk and many were receptive to what I said to them.
When they clearly stated that they wanted to withdraw from the CCP and its affiliates, I told them that their statements were for heaven to witness their hearts and were valid with their real names or pseudo names. Most people actually used their real names. When some government officials were afraid to give out their real names, I expressed my understanding of their concern and created nice pseudo names for them. I did not pay attention to the number of people quitting the CCP organizations, but rather strive to make sure people to fully understand the meaning behind it. Most people happily thanked me when we parted. I did not feel complacent, and knew that Master was the one who saved them.
Once, I met a young man. I told him about Dafa, stories of evil doers receiving retribution for persecuting Dafa, and the CCP’s history. I urged him to quit the CCP for his own safety. He said, “I understand. You are doing an extraordinary good deed. Do you know what my job is? I am an officer for Domestic Security Division, targeting Falun Gong practitioners like you. You made your point today. I’ll do what you ask, quitting the CCP and its affiliates. There are often plainclothes police on the street. Stay safe.”
When encountering people who did not want to listen or even cursed me, I remained unmoved and did not resent them. I knew that they were also Master’s relatives, and just lost in delusion for now. I silently sent out compassionate thoughts, hoping that they would understand the truth in the future. At the same time, I calmly looked within to find my shortcomings and improve myself.
Saving people is my mission, my top priority in life. I don’t want to miss anyone Master brings to me. I set a goal for myself: I must save 40 to 60 people every day, and I will not go home until I fulfill it. Sometimes I missed the goal because I had to attend group Fa study, then I would make up the next day.
With the wisdom bestowed by Master, I learned to use the computer and access the Minghui website. I also learned to send the list of people who I helped quit the CCP to the Dajiyuan website and have been doing it every night. I wait to receive the withdrawal certificates and keep them as records, as the conclusion of my day. I consider this whole process as sacred work and pay close attention to each step.
Last year, I was arrested while studying the Fa with other practitioners. When I was held in a detention center, I was not worried or afraid. My only thought was that I did not belong here since many people were waiting for me to save them. I calmed down and looked inward for my loopholes. I found out that I had developed the attachments of showing off, zealotry, treating truth clarification as a task to be completed, and being unable to face criticism from other practitioners, since it had been smooth sailing for me in doing the three things over the years.
I sent powerful righteous thoughts to clear my bad thoughts and clean up my space. I kept reciting the Fa, and refused to memorize the detention center rules or watch their TV programs.
An inmate threatened me but I was not afraid of her. I treated her kindly and clarified the truth to her. In the end, she agreed to quit the CCP and its affiliates. I also talked to other inmates about Dafa and the CCP, and six of them quit the CCP as well. They changed their view of me, respected and protected me.
I did not give out any information during interrogation and treated the police officers with compassion. They did not treat me aggressively. When they raided my home, they did not find anything. So I was released after 30 days of detention.
After I got home, I studied the Fa intensively, did the exercises, sent forth righteous thoughts and looked inward, to clear my fears. I caught up in my cultivation and went out again to save people. The number of people understanding the truth and severing ties with the CCP remained above 40 every day, sometimes reaching more than 60.
I began to clarify the truth to people since the beginning of 2005, and have been doing it almost every day. I did a rough calculation and determined that I helped more than 200,000 people quit the CCP. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Master on behalf of them.
