Singing the Song "Falun Dafa is Good" to Tourists from Mainland China

By A Hong Kong Practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) One night I learned the song "Falun Dafa is Good" from our Dafa group study site. The music was so pleasant to hear and had such a serene feeling. It caused a certain sensation beyond words and it was so touching that it brought tears to my eyes. I could not help but remember Teacher's recent article "Foretelling the Fa's Rectification of the Human World".

The next day I went to distribute truth-clarifying flyers at a place where Mainland Chinese tourists would stop for lunch.

I came to a restaurant in the morning. There were about 20 to 30 Chinese tourists getting off a bus and coming to the door. I went up to greet them with the flyer. Most of them took it. Later tourists coming out of the second and third bus all refused to receive the flyer. They wore a cold and indifferent face. I knew in my heart that they had been instructed and misled by their tour guide to ignore me. Then a good idea flashed over my mind: "Why don't I sing the songs composed by Dafa practitioners!"

I took action right away upon having this thought and began to sing,

"Falun Dafa is Good. Falun Dafa is Good.

Falun Dafa is the Righteous Fa. Buddha's Light Shines All Over..."

I tried my best to sing using my purest thoughts and from the bottom of my heart.

At first my fellow Chinese people attempted to ignore me and avoided eye contact with me. Continuing to sing the song "Falun Dafa is Good", I just followed behind them, walking without stopping. Finally they turned around and smiled at me. I continued the singing and smiled back while passing the flyers over to them. Some started to take the flyer. Then more and more of them came to pick up the material. I kept singing and passing out even more flyers to them, while at the same time my mind was becoming more and more serene. Some hesitant ones, after I told them that Falun Gong is legal in Hong Kong, changed their mind and received the flyer. Some helpful ones also took more copies for others staying in the bus. At seeing this, my tears overflowed. Over the next few days their sincere smiles were deep in my memory. I know that they understand Falun Dafa is good and now they have created the opportunity for their lives to last forever. Their fear and uneasiness under the suppression of the evil forces are disappearing.

Later other local practitioners came. Although we didn't speak mandarin fluently, we clarified the true facts about Falun Gong as much as possible to the Mainland Chinese tourists in their native dialect. Due to the limitation of our mandarin vocabulary, we had some difficulty with our communication. As I apologized for it, a tall tourist patiently listened while constantly nodding and smiling to encourage me to continue speaking. After that my concern about the Chinese language barrier was gone.

We also opened our display book and exhibited the true facts of Dafa to them through the pictures. Some of them appeared to be very interested and kept turning the pages and asking related questions. Unfortunately, they were only able to stay briefly at this location. For those who did not get a flyer or did not have a chance of seeing the photos we brought, we held the picture book aloft next to the bus window for their viewing while they were boarding the bus. As they looked they kept nodding and gestured to me to turn to the next page. As the bus was leaving, their glances were still on the picture book. We closed the display book and waved our goodbyes to their satisfied smiles.

Seeing their change from the initial fearfulness, avoidance, and passiveness to their final benevolent smile, we realized the awakening of the human good nature. All parties involved in this encounter were fully satisfied. Dafa's magnificence was shining brightly.
