(Minghui.org) I began to practice Falun Dafa on July 20, 1999, the day the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) launched its campaign to eradicate the practice.
Having experienced the persecution firsthand, I started to make phone calls to my fellow citizens during the second half of 2012 to let them know about Dafa and the persecution. It is important that they understand the facts about the persecution of Dafa so that they will not believe the CCP’s lies and propaganda.
Improving My Xinxing Makes a Difference
Making phone calls was no easy task. Some people would curse at me, and very few chose to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations on any given day. I realized that I had to look inward if I wanted to do better and save more people.
By studying the Fa a lot and reading the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, I realized that my way of thinking was a product of the CCP’s indoctrination. The mission of Dafa practitioners is to save people. How can we save them if we are still governed by elements of the CCP?
After I identified my problem, fewer people cursed at me during phone calls and more people quit.
Refusing to Acknowledge Interference
Physical interference was another problem I had to deal with. My legs suddenly started to really hurt when I was about to make phone calls.
I thought: “I am a Dafa disciple. I will not acknowledge any interference.” But my situation only worsened.
My legs hurt so much that I couldn't put them in the full lotus position to do the sitting mediation. But that didn't stop me. I tied them together in the position to do the one-hour sitting meditation. I also continued to make phone calls to people when I had time.
My legs gradually recovered.
Master Arranges Everything
I continued to make phone calls to people every day, including on my holidays, as our time is very precious and we can't slack off in saving people.
I went to Beijing for a few months, where I continued to make calls on my cell phone. Then I ran out of phone cards.
In China, you have to use your real name to purchase phone cards, which makes it easier for the police to find you. We were told that it was especially difficult to buy phone cards in Beijing. For me to go home and buy new cards would take a few days, which was not an option.
When things seemed hopeless, we ran into other practitioners who were distributing CDs with Dafa information on them at a supermarket. Although we talked about making phone calls, we didn't mention our phone card problem.
To our surprise, they gave us four phone cards when we met again and promised to provide us with more. They reminded us not to purchase the cards ourselves as it was not safe.
I had tears in my eyes. How could they have known that we were in urgent need of phone cards? It was Master who arranged this.
Master said,
“As you know, the surge of people quitting the Party since the Nine Commentaries was published is a matter of people choosing their futures, so everyone has to take a stance.” (Teaching the Fa in San Francisco, 2005)
I decided to phone people in remote rural areas as they also need to take a stance. I always sent forth righteous thoughts before I made the calls and said to myself, “The old forces and evil factors are not allowed to interfere. People need to hear the facts and know right from wrong.” Under Master's protection, everything went very well.
Good Fa Study Allows Thoughts to be Righteous
I memorized Zhuan Falun in 2002 and recited two of Master's lectures every day. I also read Master's other publications.
With a strong foundation in the Fa, I understand that our own attachments are our biggest interference on our cultivation path. The more we study the Fa, the less our attachments can interfere. Our thoughts are righteous when we study the Fa.
Situation Changes Because of Righteous Thoughts
I was making phone calls near a railway line, when a police car stopped less than 20 meters away. Five officers stepped out of the car and one of them said loudly, “The signal was here.”
I was startled for a moment as they walked towards me, but soon calmed down and told myself that saving people is the right thing to do and that no one should persecute us.
As they stood in front of me, one of them pointed at the railway signal. It turned out that the signal was broken.
I'm sure they were initially looking for me, but with my righteous thought, everything changed. The result would have been completely different if my thoughts were not righteous! Nothing can interfere with us if we study the Fa well and do what Master asks us to do.
There are close to 1.4 billion people in China, and many have not yet withdrawn from the CCP. Whether they've joined the Party or not, they all need to give their stance.
Master has extended the time and given us this precious opportunity to warn people about the CCP's demise.
