Some Stories from Our Small Fa Study Group

Oct. 15, 2007 |   By a Falun Dafa Practitioner from Yueyang City, Hunan Province

(Clearwisdom.net) Since Master has said that Dafa practitioners are getting "more and more mature" ("Fa Teaching at the US Capital") and especially when Master's new article "Thoroughly Dissolve the Evil" came out, practitioners in my area were enlightened to the need to catch up with the process of Fa-rectification. We need to follow what Master has said:

"Particularly the Dafa disciples in each region of mainland China--are to concertedly send righteous thoughts toward those evil places, thoroughly dissolving all evil beings and elements that persecute Dafa disciples, clearing away the evil circumstances under which Dafa disciples are persecuted in mainland China, and saving the world's people, [thereby] fulfilling the duties of a Dafa disciple and advancing toward godhood."

We set up a group Fa study in our workplace, where we have a place to send forth righteous thoughts and help those being persecuted.

Below is our small group Fa-study's sharing, offering some initial suggestions, and upgrading as one. If there's anything inappropriate, practitioners should please point it out.

Every Friday, we have our small group Fa-study from 8AM to 4PM. Whenever it is time to send forth righteous thoughts, we all follow Master's guidance to "Thoroughly Dissolve the Evil" and send forth righteous thoughts to all those forces behind the labor camps, detention centers etc.

In our group Fa-study, a couple practitioners gave us their sharing regarding doing the three things.

One of the practitioners is a 60-year old woman. She had a strong attachment of fear, which made her not want to clarify the truth. After many group study sessions, and reading other practitioners' articles on Minghui.org, she realized that clarifying the truth to villages and rural areas was another way to save sentient beings. Master said,

"All Dafa disciples, students both new and veteran, should get to work and begin comprehensively clarifying the truth. This is especially so for the Dafa disciples in Mainland China: each must come out and clarify the truth, bringing it to every field and valley, mountain and hill, not omitting a single area where there are people." ("Let Go of Human Attachments and Save the World's People").

So she obtained 200 flyers and went with another practitioner to clarify the truth to a town that has been persecuted quite strongly. It gave the evil forces a big blow.

Another practitioner was passing out flyers at night, when she and another practitioner got lost. They didn't have a choice but to call a taxi. The taxi driver wanted more money than usual. The practitioner decided to clarify the truth to him and asked him to resign from the Party. This driver soon acknowledged the truth and resigned.

Another practitioner is a 67-year old villager. She lived in an area that didn't have any Dafa practitioners for more than a hundred miles around. She obtained Dafa a little late, she couldn't read, and her farming work occupied most of her time. Because of this, she asked her husband to read Zhuan Falun and Master's articles to her. At the same time, she was learning it word by word. By now, she can read Zhuan Falun fluently. Since she didn't have time to study and practice the exercises during the day, she would wake up at 3AM to do this. Now, even a 30-40 year old couldn't beat her in picking cotton. Sometimes she will go around passing out truth-clarification flyers and will walk more than 10 li (one li is about 1/3 of a mile or half of a kilometer).

One time, she and her sister (also a Dafa practitioner) went out to distribute truth-clarification materials. When they passed a local police station, her sister said, "We don't need to give truth-clarification flyers here." But this practitioner said, "I have to save sentient beings, they have to know the truth." She left a flyer inside the police station.

This practitioner always uses materials that would suit the needs of a farming village. Every time before she goes out to pass out truth-clarification materials, she will send forth righteous thoughts and ask for Master's help. The truth-clarification materials will be tied on to something a farmer would see (like a cotton plant), there would be one tied on to something for every half li that she walks. When a farmer gathers his crops, he reads the truth-clarification material or brings them home.

Farmers also have a habit of passing news around when they get it. This practitioner does things sincerely, so she is able to finish 10 li. Some practitioners tried persuading her to not hand out truth-clarification materials in her nearby surroundings. She replied, "No, the people that live near me have a greater predestined relationship with me, so how could I not do it? Time is of essence, I need to hurry up and save sentient beings."

After hearing what this practitioner said, we were all very encouraged. We also acknowledged as Master said that sharing can help us upgrade our levels, find our mistakes, and strengthen our righteous thoughts while walking the path towards enlightenment.
