(Minghui.org) Several of our local practitioners went to a marketplace today to distribute information about the persecution of Falun Gong. We met a woman who was about 40 years old. We handed her a wall calendar that contains information about Falun Gong and started speaking to her about quitting the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations.
She took it, smiled, and said, “I've already quit. I've read all the truth-clarification materials that you've distributed, such as Falun Dafa brochures, the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, and Shen Yun DVDs. You've used your savings to produce these materials and given them to us for free. This is remarkable! I admire you so deeply. These past few years, I've met a lot of Falun Gong practitioners like you here who have persisted in distributing these materials. Not everyone could do this. What are you after?”
I smiled, and replied,“We aren't after anything. We only want you to know the facts, quit the CCP, and choose a bright future for yourself. Falun Gong is a high-level cultivation practice. I hope you will obtain a copy of Zhuan Falun and read it yourself."
She said that she would. Then, another woman, who had been listening nearby, walked over and said, “I totally agree with her.” I told her that I'd like to give her a wall calendar. She answered that she needed a few more because she wanted to help us distribute them. So I gave her three. She immediately handed the calendars to two women nearby and came back. She said, “I've already given them to my friends. Please give me more. I want to give them to people in that hospital.” She took two dozens from me and headed toward the hospital.
My heart was touched, and I gazed at her as she walked away. This made me recall an occasion when I was handing out Shen Yun DVDs on the street a few years ago. I saw three men in their early 30's sitting on the edge of the road. I went over to them and said, “Young men, I'd like to give you a DVD of a world-class show, in which the performers, costumes, and the content are top-notch. This is something you've never seen before.” The young men took the DVDs, and one of them asked, “Please give us a few more. We'll help you distribute them.” So I gave them a dozen. Within just a few moments, they'd handed them all out.
They waved to stop oncoming cars and told the drivers that the DVDs were of a world-class show, and then asked if they needed a tint for their glasses. I realized they were selling clip-on sunglasses. The next day, I saw them again. They asked me for truth-clarification brochures to hand to the drivers.
Another time, I gave a truth-clarification magazine to a 60-year-old man. He said, “Please give me more copies. The CCP is simply too wicked and phony. After I read your truth-clarification materials, I realized how great Falun Gong truly is and how evil the CCP has been. I want to help you spread the information.” He took truth-clarification brochures from my bag and started passing them out on the street, while shouting “Falun Dafa is good!” Worried for his safety, his daughter-in-law asked him to leave, but he ignored her and returned to me for more brochures.
There are many people who have open hearts like these people. And there are more and more people who are gradually awakening. During this special historical period, they are choosing a bright and glorious future for themselves.
