(Minghui.org) Being introverted, I am a person of few words. When there are only two of us, I can easily converse with the other person. However, if even one more person joins, I remain quiet. I seldom visit my relatives or neighbors.

I was in poor health and started to practice Falun Dafa in 1997, when I was 28. Since then, I have become healthy. However, I still felt it difficult to talk to strangers about Falun Dafa and the persecution.

Attachments to Fear and Losing Face Disappear After Breaking Through My Selfishness

From Master's teachings, I knew that clarifying the truth to save people is one of the three things Dafa practitioners should do. Before 2014, I explained the persecution of Falun Dafa to people I had natural connections with when I went out.

I am a housewife in a rural area and seldom leave my home. Thus, I had persuaded less than 100 people to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations within a year.

With studying the Fa a lot and improving my xinxing, I realized that if I continued doing things this way, I would not save enough people. I was wasting the valuable time Master had extended for the world. I felt ashamed when facing a portrait of our compassionate Master.

One day in the spring of 2014, I was determined to step out to clarify the truth to others. I walked down the road, but when I came to a village, I didn’t dare enter it. I had walked over 20 miles that afternoon, passing by one village after another. I only came across two students, whom I helped to quit the Young Pioneers (one of the Chinese Communist Party's youth organizations).

The next day, when I again walked to a nearby village, I had a firm thought that I must get rid of my attachments of fear and losing face.

I arrived at a house. Before I could open the gate, a 50-year-old man came out of the house and walked towards me. He asked, “What are you doing?”

“Elder brother, I'm here to tell you the truth about Falun Gong and bring you good information,” I answered.

He then whispered to me, “I know. We have the same Master, but please be careful.”

He is a fellow practitioner who also had an attachment of fear. But after this interaction, when I entered the village and went into a stranger’s home to clarify the facts, I felt that my attachments to fear and losing face had disappeared.

Later on, I went out with a 70-year-old practitioner from our Fa-study group who also was afraid of talking to strangers. We clarified the truth to people several times together. This veteran practitioner could then do it by herself.

During the last autumn harvest, Deng Ping, another practitioner in our Fa-study group, said, “When you go to other villages to clarify the facts with Han Lili (a practitioner), I'll shuttle you both back and forth.”

With good cooperation in the process of clarifying the facts to people, we genuinely cultivated ourselves. The more we clarified the truth to others, the less attachments we had, the more compassionate we were, and the more sentient beings were saved.

Through our efforts, many people learned about Falun Gong and chose to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.

Removing Notions About Selecting People to Save

I went to another village, and the first house I saw had its door open. Instead of entering this house, I went to the neighbor’s. I persuaded the neighbor and his 70-year-old father to quit the CCP.

After that, I asked them, “It's such a cold winter day. Why does your neighbor have his door open?”

“An old bachelor lives there,” the younger man said. “Please don’t go to that house. We've had no communication with him for more than a decade.”

Feeling hesitant, I remembered that Master had told us that everyone on Earth had come for the Fa. I to the village to clarify the facts to people, so how could I be selective about which people to save?”

I then entered the “bachelor’s” home. The man there looked like he was in his 30s. When I entered the room, I said, “Brother, I'm here to tell you the secret of peace: 'Falun Dafa is good, and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.'”

“I believe in God,” he said.

I continued, “It's good for you to have faith and to do good deeds. You will be blessed by the divine.”

I then asked, “Did you wear a red tie when you were in primary school?” He answered that he did. I continued, “Please quit the Young Pioneers, and gods will erase the imprint of atheism from you. Then you won’t be implicated when the CCP is destroyed by Heaven.” He agreed.

Master’s compassion did not let him miss the opportunity to be saved.

From this interaction, I truly experienced that only without attachments can our compassion emerge, enabling us to help Master save people during the Fa-rectification. We only use our mouths and limbs; it is Master who saves sentient beings.

During the winter, many people in the countryside enjoy playing mahjong. At first, when I clarified the truth to those people, they neither listened to me nor let me speak.

I shared these experiences with Deng Ping, another practitioner who told me that I lacked compassion. She was right. Upon seeing many people in a room with a foul atmosphere, I felt annoyed. How could my compassion come out, and how could I save people in such a state of mind?

Master helped me remove the attachment when I was determined to get rid of it. The next time I came across a group of mahjong players, I entered the room with a peaceful mind, waiting for them to finish a game. I then went to them, affectionately saying, “Big brother (or big sister), may I trouble you for a minute?”

With a truth-clarification calendar in hand, I continued, “Please take a look at the calendar I'd like to give you, and you'll be aware of the facts about Falun Gong and be blessed.”

The people playing mahjong all wanted a calendar, and they read a few pages of it. I briefly told them about the significance of quitting the CCP and its affiliated organizations. All of them agreed they would quit the Party and expressed their gratitude. Some of them shouted, “Falun Dafa is good!”

On the path of saving people, I have encountered all kinds of people. I often come across sick and elderly people, some of whom were unable to go out, and some who had been paralyzed for many years.

After learning the truth, those who were too disabled to speak nodded yes in agreement, and some were not even able to nod. To those too paralyzed to even nod, I say, “If you understand what I have told you and agree to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations, please blink your eyes.” They really blink their eyes. If we don’t clarify the truth to such people face to face, they will lose the opportunity to be saved by Falun Dafa.

While writing this article, I remembered Master’s words:

“Dafa disciples, you are golden light in the mortal world, the hope of the world’s people, Fa-disciples who help Master, and future Fa-Kings. Keep diligent, Awakened Ones that walk the earth: Everything of today will be the glory of the future.” (“Congratulatory Message” from The Essentials of Diligent Progress Vol. III)

I feel my responsibility and mission, and I am very happy to be walking on the path arranged by Master.
