(Clearwisdom.net) On the evening of April 30, 2005, at an intersection in the city of Zhengzhou, I was just about to ask for directions when an elderly man with a kind face walked straight toward me. I greeted him, and inquired about directions. After the man explained the routes for me, I thanked him and was just about to go on my way when he called me back.
I turned my head. He said to me with great sincerity, "Do not believe the reports on TV about Falun Gong. They are all lies made to frame Falun Gong!" I immediately replied, "I really do believe what you said!" Then he said, "Thank you!" I responded, "I should thank you! You told me the truth. I was wrong for not telling you the truth!"
Ask we spoke, tears ran the old man's cheeks. I was ashamed and started to comfort my fellow practitioner, "Master hopes that we are even more diligent! If our fate permits, we will see each other again!"
The shadows of night had arrived, and I had to go, so I bid my farewells to the elderly fellow practitioner. As I walked away, he urged me, "Walk your path well! You must walk well!"
That is so right. On the road, following Master home, on the road of Fa rectification, we must walk our paths well!
My fellow practitioner is a mirror for me. Facing him, I saw my shortcomings. At an intersection in the provincial capital, a place where people don't stop moving, a place where everyone is in a hurry, he clarified the truth, and he left me with compassion. This was a selfless and courageous act. This is the first time that I have met a practitioner who clarified the truth to me. I truly felt that we are a whole body, relatives in the same family. We all came out of the same door, we all learned the same Fa, and we all do the three things. Only Master and Dafa can enable us to become enlightened to the existence of predestined relationships in this broad horizon of the sky.
When I came home, I told this to practitioners close to me. They all cried and were very moved. I felt the deep bond between myself and my fellow practitioners, and the predestined relationships between us. Prior to this experience I felt I didn't know how to cherish the predestined relations between us. I was controlled by selfishness, and I lacked forbearance and a forgiving heart. I will certainly do better from now on and further validate this ancient and holy predestined relationship and teacher's compassion. My fellow disciples encouraged me to submit this story so that other practitioners can learn from it.
