Keep Sentient Beings in Mind and Clarify the Truth Wherever You Go

Aug. 15, 2009 |   By a practitioner in China

(Clearwisdom.net) Many fellow practitioners have told me that that they do not know how to clarify the truth, and, since I have helped many people to withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), could I give them an example. Actually, it is not difficult to clarify the truth, provided that we study the Fa well, eliminate fear, keep sentient beings in mind, and cherish their lives as we cherish ourselves--then you can explain things effectively .

If I do not speak about the truth of Falun Gong to people for several days, I feel a sense of loss and loneliness. One day I had a dream. There was a main road going from east to west, with people calmly walking on it. However, they could not walk on the section of road on the edge of our county. Mountains on both sides of the road had collapsed, and there were no people, grass, or road. Just one person emerged the debris, and half of his body was still in the mud.

After I woke up, I thought that this was a true picture of our efforts to save sentient beings. The mountains that collapsed represent the places where we had not saved people, and I anxiously tried to find a solution to how to rescue people there. This was difficult! Several good fellow practitioners were arrested while attempting to save people there. While we were trying to save people in the southwest mountainous area, we did not coordinate well; one team had already distributed materials in the area, but another team doubled up and were stopped by villagers. The faces of the village cadres were full of anger, and they shouted, "Go home! Get a spade and kill them. Call 110!" We tried to explain the truth to them, but they would not listen at all. A female practitioner and I were sending forth righteous thoughts as we ran away, and a good-hearted family protected us. Another male practitioner was arrested and was sentenced to six years of forced labor. Two other practitioners were arrested when we went to the northern mountainous area. Authorities gave orders to station eighty to ninety security officers in every village. These officers were responsible for arresting practitioners and were given a 1000-yuan reward for every practitioner apprehended.

We must save people no matter how difficult it is! We can't leave any gaps. Teacher said:

"not omitting a single area where there are people." ("Let Go of Human Attachments and Save the World's People," September 1, 2004 )

I suddenly understood that the places where we hadn't explained the truth were actually places for the evil, which was extinguished where we had gone. At night I could see that the truth-clarification materials in my hands were fluorescent and transparent, emitting golden, sparking light to every household.

How could we save them? It is easy to be seen in the daytime, but the roads are hard to find at night, and they're very far away. In meditation, a thought came to me: "Distribute media on the public transportation system on the way there!" This was the way that Teacher gave me a hint. I made fine, colored packages. On the front I wrote: "Friends, as you value your life, please seize this precious opportunity. Here is a precious gift that it is a predestined for you to see. Understand how fortunate you are, respectfully circulate it for others to read, and receive boundless beneficence." I put a colored design on it and wrapped a copy of Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party inside. I put them on the seats or handed them out.

I explain the truth to people mostly face to face, and use different ways for different people. Wherever I go, I talk about the truth. I have made special trips to mountainous areas, rural fairs, community squares, recreation areas, school playgrounds, streets, and markets. I speak to every household as if I were selling a spring festival couplet. These are good places to explain the truth. Besides, every person passing by is someone you must save. I'll give a few examples for practitioners who think that they aren't able do truth clarification.

Once, a fellow practitioner and I went to a mountainous area, distributed materials, and visited every household. We arrived at an elderly woman's home, told her about the beauty of Falun Dafa, and taught her to recite "Falun Dafa is good." She asked me to write down the words, so that she could have her son read them, since he was ill. She said repeatedly as she unexpectedly bowed to us, "You are the Bodhisattvas. No wonder I dreamed the Bodhisattvas came to my home." Then, she took out the only pasta she had and wanted to cook for us. I quickly said, "We have already eaten." Actually, only after we were tired did we sit on a stone near the riverbank for a rest, had a few bites of dried food, and drank water from the river. When we saw how peoples' hearts longed for salvation, our hearts were warm.

Another time I accompanied a fellow practitioner on his appointment with a dentist. I sat there, reading an electronic copy of Zhuan Falun, which caught the attention of the dentist and his nurse, and they asked me, "Older Sister [In China, this is a traditional way to greet a female slightly older than yourself.], what are you reading?" I said that I was reading Zhuan Falun and that I was not an "Older Sister." I said, "In fact, you should call me 'Auntie,' because my son is about your age and attends graduate school.' They asked, "Can that really be true? You look so young." I replied, "I am a Falun Dafa practitioner. Anemia and many other diseases in the past had turned me into a yellow-faced old woman. I have been practicing for ten years now, and I am healthy and happy, and become younger and younger. You look like knowledgeable people. That's great! Back in my day, you needed a recommendation to go to school. Poor peasants' children had first choice, and I did not have the opportunity, because my family were middle class. You would suffer if you were literate at that time."

I continued, "My school academic record was very good, I was always first or second in the class, but because of my family's status, I could not go to college. I finally went to an agricultural high school. Schools at that time were all 'studying agriculture and supporting agriculture.' They did not have a literacy class, so I studied newspaper editorials in class, just to keep up with the rest of the class. Luckily, my brain was good, and I studied some English, literature, and mathematics on my own. The CCP always harms people. Have you heard of 'June 4?' The CCP slaughtered students with guns and tanks--it was really brutal! Can you tell me how such a Party could not be extinguished by heaven? Quickly withdraw from it!"

"Thank you, Auntie! Please help us all to quit!" A young person grasped my hand and expressed gratitude.

Even when people quickly pass by on the street, I stop them and get straight to the point: "Have you ever joined the CCP and its affiliated organizations? The CCP will be extinguished, because it has killed so many people and opposed heaven and earth. If we are one of its members, we will be buried along with it! Quit from it right away. Using a childhood name or alias is fine."

There are many more examples of how I have persuaded people to quit the CCP. I only listed a few for your reference. There are also many instances of amazing things happening to people after they quit: some people recovered from sickness, some improved their academic records, some felt that their bodies were clear and light, and some had prosperity in business.

My understanding is:

"Cultivation depends on one's own efforts, while the transformation of gong is done by one's master. It is good enough if you have this wish." (Zhuan Falun)

As long as you go out to clarify the truth, Teacher will give you wisdom and lead people with predestined relationships to you.
