Sydney Falun Gong Practitioners Clarify the Truth to Chinese People during the Chinese New Year Festival

Feb. 17, 2002 |   By a practitioner from Sydney

(Clearwisdom.net) During the Chinese New Year Festival, Sydney Falun Gong practitioners fully utilized this wonderful opportunity to clarify the truth to Chinese people. One after another, they went to Chinatown and the city center to distribute Dafa flyers and to clarify the truth. On February 10, practitioners distributed more than 100,000 Dafa flyers and newsletters. You could see almost everywhere people holding Chinese or English Dafa truth-clarifying newsletters in their hands. "Thank you, I already have one Falun Gong newsletter in my bag!" "Free newsletter? Please give me one!" "Ah! Falun Gong has been persecuted by the Chinese Government. It is too unfair!" "What can I do to help you? What can I do to help Falun Gong? After reading the truth-clarifying newsletter, I am so angry at what the Chinese Government has done. I fully support you!"

1. "You should take the booklets "Journey of Return" (Hui Gui De Lu Cheng) to Mainland China and distribute them there!"

In Chinatown we met a mother and daughter who just came to Australia from China. The mother said to the practitioners, "After looking at those photos, I'm simply astonished. The Chinese police have beaten your people so badly, this is totally opposite to what has been published in China."

The mother said, "I always believed the propaganda in China, especially after I watched the TV program about the self-immolation on Tiananmen Square. I told everyone I met about how bad Falun Gong was. I have created such big karma! After reading your materials, I totally understand. The booklet 'Journey of Return' should be distributed in China. People there have been deeply deceived. We were warned before we went abroad not to accept Falun Gong materials. We even had to promise not to accept the materials. In the tour group, someone was in charge of videotaping or taking photos secretly, so no one dared to pick up Falun Gong materials. However, all these people have been watching and listening. Chinese people will not be saved if Jiang's government continues to act like this. You must persist in revealing the truth and you will win!"

2. "Falun Gong! I'm so eager to learn the truth of Falun Gong!"

An old man just came from Beijing to visit his family and met Dafa practitioners by chance. The old man kept saying, "Falun Gong! I'm so eager to learn the truth of Falun Gong!" The old man gave his address to the practitioner so that the practitioner can send him the truth-clarification VCD.

3. In the end, they all smiled happily.

A practitioner who was distributing Dafa materials went to buy some breakfast. The shopkeeper who was blinded by the evil propaganda from the Chinese government said, "Falun Gong is getting involved in politics. They go to the Chinese Consulate everyday to protest. They really lose face for Chinese people." The practitioner said, "We are only peacefully appealing, quietly sitting there because the Chinese police have tortured more than 300 practitioners to death. Dafa practitioners have to appeal. All the practitioners will not strike back when they are beaten, and they will not curse back when they are cursed at. There are practitioners as old as 90 and as young as 2. What kind of political goals could they have?"

The practitioner continued, "Most practitioners abroad have PhD's or Masters degrees. Some of them are scientists or hold high positions in companies. They have very good working environments, and they aren't attempting to gain political position in China. Just because Dafa is good, practitioners want to say a just word for Dafa and even use their lives to safeguard Dafa. If I gave you 100 million Chinese Yuan and asked you to face Jiang's regime, jail, brutal torture, handcuffs, shackles, broken family, and even death, would you dare to go? Those Falun Gong practitioners have not obtained a single penny from anyone. Why are they willing to use their lives to safeguard this Dafa?"

Looking at the attentive looks on everyone's faces, the practitioner continued, "Through the ages, China has suppressed anyone who has a belief or idea that is different from the ruling party's ideology. They always broke down any opposition in a short time, but why are they not able to break Falun Gong? From July 1999 to now, almost 3 years, the more persecution there is, the stronger Falun Gong becomes. Falun Gong is practiced in 53 countries. Zhuan Falun has been translated into more than 20 languages and is available all over the world. In addition, no Falun Gong practitioner has ever committed suicide or self-immolation in any other country, why are there continuous reports of suicide or self-immolation from only China since the beginning of the persecution? Falun Dafa is the great Fa of the universe. How could it be possible for humans to destroy the Fa of the universe! If humans fight against the heavens, humans must lose. It is heaven's principle that good is rewarded with good, while evil is met with evil. You all understand this, so why would you follow the deceiving propaganda of Jiang's regime?"

The five shop assistants had stopped their work and stood there listening to the practitioner clarifying the truth to them. The puzzled and deluded expressions on their faces gradually changed. They just listened quietly without asking any questions. In the end, they all smiled happily.
