(Clearwisdom.net) Greetings, Master! Greetings, fellow practitioners!
I obtained the Fa in 1996 and 14 years have now passed. When I look back over the path of cultivation I have walked, words cannot describe my feelings. Over these years, sometimes I was able to pass the xinxing tests well, and sometimes I was not. However, with faith in Master and Dafa, I was able to forge ahead to validate Dafa and clarify the facts. I would like to take advantage of this opportunity to share with everybody my experiences in truth clarification in Osaka and New York City.
Clarifying the Facts in Japan
In April 2002, my daughter brought me to Japan. At first I could not adapt to the peaceful new environment overseas right after getting out of the very harsh environment in mainland China. I gradually adjusted and became immersed in clarifying the facts to save sentient beings. I eventually found a good spot to do this: Osaka Castle Park. I've gone there for eight years now.
At the beginning when I tried to convince people to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), I would tell them directly that heaven was eliminating the CCP and they needed to save themselves by quitting the Party. The tourists from China did not understand and swore loudly. I was not compassionate and would immediately respond with anger. I did not watch my xinxing and did not have even a little bit of compassion at the time. Thus I was not able to convince many people to quit the CCP. Later, with more intensive Fa study and sending forth righteous thoughts, the effect of my truth clarification became better and better. I studied two to three lectures each day and sent forth righteous thoughts whenever I had time, in addition to the four regular time slots. No matter how bad or good the weather, I clarified the facts in Osaka Castle Park.
Clarifying the Facts to Tour Guides
Each time a tour group arrived, I would first clarify the facts to the guide. If the guides did not know the facts, they would call everyone in the tour group to get on the bus and would not allow them to take any truth-clarification materials.
Once I asked such a guide whether he was from China. Instead he answered, "I am a tour guide." I joked with him and said, "A guide is also a living being and each living being only has one single life. You will not be given two lives because you are a tour guide. Heaven is now eliminating the CCP. You can secure your life by quitting the CCP." He said, "I have not joined the CCP." I explained to him, "Joining the Youth League and the Young Pioneers also counts. You are a member of those organizations, and, since you are the guide, the lives of all the tourists on the bus are in your hands."
In a similar manner, I have convinced 33 tour guides to quit the CCP. Some guides have said, "You try to convince me to quit the Party each time I come here." I replied, "It shows that you are very blessed and you truly have a predestined relationship." One of the guides was not willing to quit the CCP even after I talked to her 33 times. She would not quit no matter how I explained the facts to her. Very recently I saw her again and this time, she agreed. Due to cosmic changes, people are becoming more and more aware of the truth.
Clarifying the Facts to Tourists That Work for the Public Security Bureau
Once I met two tourists who said they were officials from Heilongjiang Public Security Bureau. Fellow practitioners had previously tried to clarify the facts to them and sent forth righteous thoughts. However, they would not listen at all. They stubbornly closed their ears and said many bad things.
One day I happened to run into them and said, "You did not really hear what that lady was telling you. We are both from the northeast. My husband is also from Heilongjiang Province. Northeasterners are all very kind and they have very good hearts. However, they are stubborn. My husband is one of those stubborn guys. There is a saying from our region that, 'One will do well in his life if he is open to other people's suggestions.' Please just listen to me, an old auntie, and quit the CCP to secure your life. I practice Falun Gong and I sincerely do things that are good for you. Good meets good and evil meets evil. The CCP has killed 80 million Chinese and they harvest the organs from Falun Gong practitioners while they are still alive. The United Nations is aware of what is taking place and has done an investigative report. Thousands of Falun Gong practitioners have been persecuted to death and hundreds of thousands of them are now imprisoned. They all cultivate Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. The gods will not allow this misconduct to continue with so many innocent and good people being persecuted. It is for certain that Heaven will eliminate the CCP, and I hope you can make the right choice for a bright future by quitting the Party. I would like to suggest for each of you a pseudonym, Zheng Yi (integrity) and Liang Zhi (conscience), that you can use to quit the regime. Does that sound good?" They both nodded and said it was good. I told them to remember: "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." They shook hands with me and asked me to give them my pen that people used to sign to quit the CCP as a souvenir. They also repeated, "Falun Dafa is good."
In Osaka Castle Park, over 3,500 people that I talked to have agreed to quit the CCP and its affiliated associations. Of course, that is not a result of my own efforts. The cooperation and coordination of all the practitioners in Osaka played a key role. The better the coordination, the better the results, and thus more people agreed to quit the CCP.
Clarifying the Facts with Fellow Practitioners in the US
In July 2010, I thought about going to New York City to clarify the facts. After I made the decision, I kept sending forth righteous thoughts to eliminate all the dark minions and rotten ghosts in and around my field. Just as I lifted my suitcase down, suddenly a lump appeared on my left leg. It quickly became swollen and it was very painful when I walked. I knew that the old forces did not want me to go to New York to clarify the facts and save sentient beings. I then sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the interference and asked for Master's help.
I flew to New York and went to Flushing. Flushing is one of the major places in the U.S. where Chinese people live together. Many tourists from mainland China also visit Flushing. It is a very special place. The headquarters for quitting the CCP is also located there. There are six spots in Flushing where fellow practitioners talk to people and ask them to quit the regime. Many of the CCP's special agents are there as well. The CCP spends tons of money in Flushing to get people who do not know the truth to support them. As many other practitioners have experienced, I felt very intense pressure as soon as I got there. It seemed that even the air was filled with evil particles. In such a challenging environment, our fellow practitioners have saved large numbers of sentient beings and eliminated large amounts of evil elements despite how harsh the environment is.
I arrived in Flushing on July 12. On July 14, I went to a subway entrance to talk to people about quitting the CCP. Many tourists and students from mainland China were there. Many parents had come to the U.S. to send their children to colleges. I met a father who came to send his son to a college and gave him a leaflet. He said, "I know about you Falun Gong. I live in Fuyou Street in Beijing. Many Falun Gong practitioners went to appeal in Zhongnanhai and they were very quiet and peaceful." I said, "I lived in Xiwai in Beijing, and I also went to Zhongnanhai on April 25. You know, Heaven will eliminate the CCP. Please sever your ties with the regime and secure your safety!" He nodded in agreement. I then helped him and his son choose a pseudonym to quit the CCP. They thanked me.
That day, 38 people agreed to quit the CCP and I did not feel the pain in my leg until the evening. I then repeated "Falun Dafa is good" and on the second day, I returned to that spot in Flushing to clarify the facts.
One day at the entrance of the subway, a strong guy who looked really fierce showed up. It was clear that he wanted to start a fight. When he saw our display board, he started to curse loudly. I calmly said, "I'd guess you are a Northeasterner from your accent. Am I right?" He said he was from Heilongjiang Province. I told him that my husband was from Hailun City in Heilongjiang. He told me that it was only about six miles from his hometown. I then said, "It seems that you have been in the U.S. for many years. You must have made a fortune." He said he had been here for 12 years and owned two companies. I then said, "But you need to secure your life while making money. Otherwise, who will spend the money even though you have earned a mountain of gold?" He told me he had joined the Youth League years ago. I said, "Well then, isn't it time to quit it? How about using the name 'Sun Mingli' (to be clear-minded and have rationality) to quit? And also remember that Falun Dafa is good and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." He agreed.
One day six Chinese government officials came by. I talked to them about quitting the CCP. Three of them said that they had already done so in Japan. I then started to talk to the other three men. One of them said they were division-level officials. I told them my husband was also such an official but that he had quit the regime. "You guys should quit, too, as it is our predestined relationship that I've met you here today." Three of them all got new names: Zhou Zhengyi (integrity and righteousness), Li Liangzhi (conscience), and Wang Tianshui (conduct according to the will of the heaven) before they left.
There are many Chinese restaurants in Flushing. One day I went to a Chinese restaurant nearby to have lunch. The restaurant advertised that they cooked northeastern style food. I praised them and told them that their food was really delicious and that was why so many people came to the restaurant. The owner and the employees were very happy to hear my compliments. I then started to chat with them and directed the conversation to quitting the CCP. It turned out that about eight of the employees and the owner all agreed to quit the Party. They also asked me to come to dine there again next time.
Not far from a truth-clarification spot in Flushing, fliers and banners slandering Falun Dafa were on a table set up by the people working for the CCP. Those people deluded by the regime also use sneaky ways to get people who did not know the truth to gather together to curse at and provoke Dafa practitioners. They also defend the CCP. These unfortunate people want to use the regime to gain some small advantage or use it to make a profit, so they go along with it. When I talked to them about quitting the CCP, some would not listen and some even left the spot immediately. I realized I needed to use righteous thoughts to save these people and eliminate the evil factors from the CCP.
Therefore, each time I went to that spot, I would play the song "Pudu" ("Universal Salvation") to eliminate the evil elements. Once the music started, some of their expressions were no longer that fierce, some seemed about to cry, while others stood there listening and did not want to leave. I knew Master was helping us. Some of those who listened to "Pudu" also listened to the facts about the persecution of Dafa, the magnificence of Dafa, how far and widely Dafa has been spread, and how many people are practicing Dafa all over the world. Fellow practitioners sent forth righteous thoughts for them and told them that Falun Gong is all about Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, that Heaven would eliminate the CCP, and that good meets good and evil meets evil. We asked them to keep away from the evil so that they could be safe. All the things Falun Gong practitioners do for them are purely out of compassion. Of those people, five of them have quit the CCP.
This is how I clarified the facts in Flushing. One day I convinced 48 people to quit the CCP. Most of the time, an average of 20-30 people would agree to quit. Up to now, over 600 people have quit the CCP after I talked to them. The pain in my leg stopped after the Washington D.C. Fa Conference. I knew that compassionate Master was cleansing me.
I have been in Flushing for almost two months now, and I will go back to Osaka Castle Park in Japan in a few days. This has been a precious time period. I saw many merits in our fellow practitioners and I've benefited a lot from this experience in these two months. After I go back to Japan, I will share my experiences with fellow practitioners in Japan. We shall all do the three things diligently and forge ahead together, walk the last leg on the path of cultivation well, and save more sentient beings to meet Master's expectation.
Thank you, Master! Thank you, Fellow Practitioners!
