(Clearwisdom.net) Thinking of my fellow countrymen in Beichuan County (the area of Sichuan Province most devastated in the recent earthquake), I felt sad because they did not hear our truth clarification before the earthquake. When I remind myself that many fellow Chinese citizens do not understand the truth about Falun Gong, I cannot help shedding tears out of a sense of urgency. My countrymen, I love you and I wish you all to have peace, safety and a bright future. Please think about it. If we did not believe that the truth of Falun Gong is important to your futures, why would we keep clarifying the truth and hand you Falun Gong materials over and over again, risking brutal persecution by the Chinese Communist Party.
Falun Dafa is here to save all sentient beings. The Clearwisdom website has published many cases showing that Falun Dafa has miraculous powers to rescue sentient beings from dangerous situations. However, many people still have not accepted the truth about Falun Dafa and the persecution and continue to be poisoned by the CCP's slanderous propaganda, giving them misconceptions and even hatred about the practice. To tell people the truth and to save them, many practitioners have put forth a lot of painstaking effort and sacrificed a lot of money, time, and even their lives.
For example, in Beichuan County, which was hardest hit by the disaster, local practitioners have done a lot to save sentient beings, but due to very limited number of practitioners and severe persecution, many people have not yet accepted the truth. Practitioners in nearby regions had gone there to help clarify the truth. For instance, several young practitioners from Mianyang City, including Zhang Chunbao, Yin Huajie, Gao Yan, Feng Wei, Ming Zhu and Yue Bin, went to Beichuan County to distribute Falun Gong truth-clarifying materials on the evening of April 28, 2005. They were arrested by the local police, beaten and interrogated. Later, they were sentenced by the Beichuan County Court to prison terms ranging from three to eight years.
Fellow citizens, do you know how much Falun Gong practitioners have sacrificed in order to let you know the truth? During the past few days, I have donated several hundred yuan through my company and community relief funds for the disaster-hit region. I have also donated several thousand yuan to my relatives and friends affected by the earthquake, and they are very grateful. These donations are the easiest efforts I have made.
When we practitioners see our fellow practitioners being arrested, heavily sentenced and even tortured to death for clarifying the truth, we let go of our attachment of fear and go out to distribute truth-clarifying materials at the risk of losing our lives.
Practitioners living in rural areas have spent countless hours late into the night learning how to use the Internet and how to print materials. They hold their hoes during the day and their computer mice at night.
Practitioners have saved every penny they can to buy printer toner, at the risk of being arrested by plain-clothes police. When some elderly practitioners were sentenced to prison terms for distributing truth-clarifying materials, they were still worrying about people who have not yet heard about the truth of Falun Gong yet. Young practitioners save their allowances and lunch money and give it to their mothers so they can make a few extra copies of the truth-clarifying materials.
When family members of practitioners know that they are going out to clarify the truth, they worry about the safety of their relatives and are in tears when they see the practitioners leave. Even the relatives of practitioners endure tremendous hardships.
Relatives and friends, you probably know that the money given by practitioners to rebuild your homes is invaluable. However, do you also know that the truth about Falun Gong that practitioners are trying to give you is more valuable by a degree that cannot even be measured?
Fellow citizens, in face of tremendous disasters brought about by the CCP, please seek the truth about Dafa and cherish it. Please sincerely believe that Falun Dafa is good and recite "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance are good." Also please quit the Party and its associated organizations, such as the Youth League and Young Pioneers. In recent days, Clearwisdom has published many cases in which those who know the truth and who quit the Party have remained safe and sound or made a narrow escape during the disaster.
Precious compatriots, the truth of Dafa is the magic protection to save yourselves and to save others. Please cherish the truth of Dafa; cherish our message and bring yourselves a bright future.
