(Minghui.org) Falun Dafa is so righteous and so good. How would we allow Jiang’s regime to frame, slander, suppress, and persecute Falun Dafa?
After the persecution started on July 20, 1999, I often went out by bicycle at night and painted “Falun Dafa is good” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” on utility poles to tell people that Falun Dafa is still active and Falun Dafa is good. I sometimes biked dozens of miles away. I sometimes even painted the utility poles near the government compound in our village.
I thought that if I could get a photocopier, I could print many of copies of truth-clarification materials and help more people know the truth.
A practitioner gave me a mimeograph machine in 2003, and my home-based truth-clarification materials production site came into existence. For two decades, I have printed pamphlets, fliers, booklets, notes with messages about Falun Dafa, desk calendars, Falun Dafa amulets, and Falun Dafa books. This site has been running well despite many hardships and difficulties.
The police from the municipal police department came to my village in early 2004, parked their car in front of my house, and knocked at my door. I grabbed a Falun Dafa book, jumped over the back fence and left. The police went to my home on two other occasions after that and said that they would arrest me if I returned home.
I became homeless and owned nothing. I now understood what it meant to own nothing, but I didn’t feel lonely or empty inside because I had the Fa in my heart and a Dafa book with me. Looking at the distant horizon, tears welled in my eyes. I said to Master in my heart, “Master, I will follow you until I complete my cultivation.” I became more determined in cultivation despite the tribulation.
I had a place to stay within a short time thanks to the help of fellow practitioners. They sent me a photocopier. I realized from this experience that I would eventually own nothing, no matter how hard I had worked, struggled, or how many things I had owned. My purpose for coming to this world was to cultivate myself and safeguard the Fa, and these are the only things I need to do in this world.
I have two adult daughters who have good jobs. My wife is a practitioner and always supports me. I have every reason to continue making truth-clarification materials until the Fa-rectification ends. I realized that my fear had caused this tribulation of homelessness. I didn’t study the Fa a lot, didn’t understand the Fa principles clearly, and looked at issues with human notions, hence the tribulation.
Because I was living in a rented room, it was inconvenient for me to print materials due to the noise. In addition, the practitioner who had helped me find the rented room was afraid of being implicated by me. I decided to return home to ease the pressure on this practitioner and also so I had my own space to do what I wanted to do. I came home in the spring of 2006. The police department was far away from my home. I thought they wouldn’t come for the time being.
Some practitioners were arrested when they were distributing pamphlets in 2008. I was told that one of them had given out my name under pressure, and practitioners asked me to be careful. I didn’t believe it and didn’t have any complaints in my heart. I just looked within to see if I had any attachments that had caused this problem.
In 2012, I received a phone call from the local police station and was told that the new director wanted to see me. The new director and several other police officers came to my home. I greeted them and let them into my home. The director asked me whether I was still practicing Falun Dafa. I told him how wonderful Falun Dafa is. He said that what I said proved that I was still practicing and asked me to practice at home and not go out and talk to people about Falun Dafa. I saw them off warmly. They asked me to go back inside so that I wouldn’t catch a cold.
In 2014, a practitioner told me that a municipal police officer had learned that I had bought a lot of paper and planned to search my home, but he turned back when he was halfway to my home because another matter came up that he had to tend to. I realized that I had used another person’s car and that had caused the problem. Materials production sites are targets for the police. I must cultivate myself well and not let the evil take advantage of my loopholes.
I make sure that I study the Fa, practice the exercises, and send forth righteous thoughts every day on top of making truth-clarification materials. I also attend group Fa study. If I have spare time, I study the Fa more and memorize the Fa, so that I can assimilate to the Fa and purify myself. With the Fa in my heart, I can measure everything with the Fa principles, look at things from a practitioner’s perspective, let go of attachments, and walk well the cultivation path that Master has arranged for me.
If I don’t cultivate myself well and make materials with a human heart, everyday people might not accept the materials or might even destroy them. My firm belief in Falun Dafa and pure heart for saving sentient beings will reflect in the materials I make. People will feel it when they receive the materials, and be saved.
Articles in which cultivators share their understandings typically reflect an individual's perception at a point in time based on their cultivation state, and they are offered in the spirit of enabling mutual elevation.
