Clarifying the Truth with a T-Shirt

March 8, 2002 |   Australian practitioner Ming Qing

(Clearwisdom.net) One day I was walking down the street with my child. I was wearing a white shirt with "Falun Gong," "Truth, Compassion, Tolerance," and "I support Falun Gong" in both Chinese and English printed on both sides. Seven or eight people who looked like they were from Mainland China walked toward me from another street. I heard someone say, "Look, Falun Gong is here too..." I walked up to them and greeted them. They seemed to suddenly become very nervous.

I said, "You're traveling abroad. Here you can see the facts that one cannot see in China and listen to the truth that you do not have a chance to hear in China. There are people who practice Falun Gong in over fifty countries all over the world. The self-immolation incident reported in China was staged." They looked at each other and quickly walked away. I still warmly wished them a nice trip.

When I turned back, I saw that one person in the group was lagging behind the others while putting his camera away. I walked up and greeted him. He told me that they came here to attend a conference regarding Taiwan. I said to him, "There are over one hundred thousand people who practice Falun Gong in Taiwan. What would be their situation if Taiwan were reunited with China?" He seemed very surprised and saw my shirt printed with "Falun Gong." He asked me in a very nervous tone, "Is it true that Taiwan has so many practitioners? Are there Falun Gong practitioners here?" I told him, "That's right. As a matter of fact, not too long ago there were western practitioners from many countries who went to Tiananmen Square to appeal for Falun Gong." He was amazed by what he heard. Suddenly someone from the group called his name. He thanked me and quickly caught up with them.

The poor Chinese people! They know nothing about the truth of Falun Gong. Even a T-shirt printed with "Falun Gong" shocked them, and they dared not to say one word. Only when they are by themselves can they talk briefly about it. I truly feel sad for them. I remember what one old man said to me when I was spreading Dafa. He said, "I read every issue of your Dafa materials. How vicious Jiang's regime is! There are so many Chinese people who are fooled by the propaganda. Fortunately I've come here. Otherwise I would be fooled too." Therefore it is our priority to clarify the truth to our precious Chinese people. One flyer, one copy of a newspaper, one VCD or one T-shirt printed with "Falun Gong" will save lives that would otherwise be ruined forever. Every righteous thought of ours will suppress evil, and awaken and save more people.
