(Minghui.org) Several practitioners in our city were arrested at the end of 2015 when they filed lawsuits against Jiang Zemin, the former head of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), for launching and directing the persecution of Falun Gong in China.

Other practitioners were so harassed that they stopped going out to tell people the facts about Falun Gong.

My Mind Becomes Clear

At that time, a practitioner made some Falun Gong calendars and gave me several to distribute. However, I was told not to distribute them immediately, but wait until he had finished printing a certain number. I noticed his apprehension, and so I agreed to wait.

I then heard about yet more practitioners getting arrested, so I began to complain to him. I already had 3,000 calendars and did not ask for that many.

I said, “You should know that I also sued Jiang Zemin. I asked you to give me 1,000 copies. Why have you given me so many? Did you give me all the calendars no one else wanted?”

I soon realized this thought was wrong. A Dafa disciple should consider others first when doing things.

I realized that I should have righteous thoughts and cooperate well in helping rescue other practitioners, as well as reaching out to help save sentient beings.

Master said,

“Didn’t I say at the beginning of the persecution that just by staying unmoved you would be able to handle all situations?” (“Fa Teaching Given at the 2014 San Francisco Fa Conference”)

Taking Truth-clarification Materials to Villages

We once took over 700 truth-clarification brochures to distribute in local villages. It was very cold and windy, with the temperature being around -25 F.

I told myself not to be afraid of hardships. It was very cold, but later on, I just forgot about it.

Another time, it was snowing, and the road was slippery. We didn’t realize it, slid off the road, and got stuck in a snow-covered ditch.

Immediately, we started to send forth righteous thoughts to disintegrate the old forces' interference. And with Master's help, we were finally able to get out of the ditch and get home safely.

After that, we would send forth righteous thoughts any time we went out, and we also always made sure to look inward.

Our distribution now goes very smoothly. Since December of 2015, we have distributed over 10,000 brochures to more than 30 villages without a hitch.

In the winter, our hands and faces were numb; in the summer, mosquitoes bit us. But at dawn, when we saw how excited those people who got the brochures were, we were really delighted. We knew it was our sacred mission to save people!

Learning to Install Operating Systems

I am in my 60s and was ignorant of cell phones. Other practitioners had set up all our cell phones used for truth clarification, and I never thought about installing the operating systems myself.

One day, a practitioner brought over a dozen cell phones and asked me to learn to install the cell phone system. He showed me how to do it and gave me a lot of encouragement. I learned how after installing it only once!

I know Master helped me and gave me wisdom.

My understanding is that, as long as we believe in Master and Dafa and get rid of all human notions, we can do anything!

When other practitioners needed truth-clarification cell phones, they would come to me. Another practitioner helped to buy the phones, and I would install the system as soon as I got them.

I paid for the phones, and the practitioners who came to pick them up would reimburse me.

One practitioner picked up three phones but never paid me back, and I was embarrassed to ask him to reimburse me.

But someone else encouraged me to collect the money, so I finally brought it up with the person who had gotten the phones. He said he was sure he had paid me back.

I felt ill at ease about arguing with him, and after I got home, I started to look inward. I noticed I still had an attachment to money and had become obsessed with him paying me back.

I soon got over it and rectified myself. I got rid of many notions during this period!

Persuading People to Quit the CCP Over the Phone

In 2015, I started to make truth-clarification phone calls for the first time. I was so nervous that I felt cold all over and had a hard time getting the words out.

When no one quit after a few days of my making calls, I gave up.

I was so ashamed, thinking, “I have been cultivating for so many years, studying the Fa every day and working to save sentient beings. How can I behave like this when there are more people waiting to be saved?”

I had five truth-clarification phones and made many calls every day. Some of the people even listened for over two minutes, but nobody agreed to withdraw from the CCP.

As I worried about it, I realized that I still had fear and the attachment to saving face and that I lacked compassion.

Many human notions were interfering with me, so I studied the Fa more and was determined to get rid of those bad things.

On January 1, 2016, it was extremely cold. I rode my bike to make phone calls, and six people quit the CCP in an hour.

I knew that Master was helping and encouraging me. What I needed to do was just to get rid of my notions and pick up the phone.

After that, I became confident at clarifying the truth over the phone.

Our phone team now makes phone calls two hours a day. As our xinxing improved, the number of people who quit the CCP increased sharply.

From January to September 2016, I helped about 2,000 people quit the CCP and helped our team help withdraw over 5,000 people.

I truly feel that, as long as we put our hearts into it, Master will ensure the best outcome.

When I spoke to people on the phone, they truly felt my compassion; I could also feel their joy at being saved.

I once talked to a policeman who was unaware of the true situation, so I patiently explained the facts about the persecution and he then understood.

He said he would no longer persecute Falun Gong practitioners, and he even quit the CCP. He ended up wishing my family well.

Some of the recipients shouted, “Falun Dafa is good!” Others even texted me, “I wish you health and happiness every day!”

At the beginning, I would often argue when I heard the other person say anything negative about Master, and I would warn them about karmic retribution. But other practitioners cautioned me about being overzealous.

I then realized I had the attachment to competitiveness. I knew that I should save sentient beings with my compassion.

After I got rid of my attachments, few people insulted me.

Once a phone call came through, and the other party said, “I work in the police department. Is this your phone number? I will find you if you continue to call me.

“Watch out for the police and the 610 Office staff! We will be there shortly!”

Although he threatened me, I did not waver. I talked about the spread of Falun Gong and how the government sanctioned the murder of practitioners for their organs.

Finally he understood and quit the CCP.

Every day Is Precious

Master said, “This instant is precious beyond measure.”(“Teaching the Fa in the City of Chicago” from Teaching the Fa at the Conference VII)

I will cherish the remaining time that Master has given me. Every day that is granted to us comes out of his great suffering.

Thank you, Master! Thank you, fellow practitioners! Heshi!
