"Young Man, You Think About Things So Thoroughly" - Several Short Stories about Sending Forth Righteous Thoughts and Clarifying the Truth

By Weilizi

(Clearwisdom.net) I can see nothing while sending forth righteous thoughts. Nonetheless, I really feel that sending forth righteous thoughts has brought about significant changes in the surrounding environment. The following are a few small stories:

One of my college roommates previously did not believe that Jiang's regime could ever commit such cruel and sinister crimes. Not long ago, she found me and talked with me for a whole evening. After that, she realized that her past views were wrong. She came to understand that it is indeed true that Jiang's gang has been brutally persecuting Dafa practitioners. She then asked me to tell her more about Falun Gong and the persecution. She also asked me a lot of questions about the contents of Dafa books. She further acknowledged that Dafa books are something different. She then expressed that she would definitely read Dafa books carefully once she gets the chance.

An elderly member of my family has come to know the goodness of Dafa and has also read many Dafa books. However, being worried about my personal safety, she often finds some excuses to try to prevent me from doing Fa-rectification work. At the beginning, I felt unhappy and helpless. Later, through fellow practitioners' reminding me and through my exchange of views with them, I realized that I should treat this issue with a righteous mind. So when I met her again, while sending forth righteous thoughts, I explained to her the principles from different angles, and also clarified the facts about the persecution. Finally, she said, "You are so determined. I am just unable to convince you. I will not try to do that anymore."

My brother's girlfriend did not understand Dafa. I told her, from an ordinary person's point of view, about the persecution of Dafa practitioners, and also asked her to make her own judgment. I said, "People want to learn and practice Falun Gong by their own will, and they have done no bad deeds whatsoever. In fact, Falun Gong has brought a lot of benefits to society. It has uplifted people's morality. Why did the government have to beat people to that extent, and even kill them?!" She then raised questions about the Jiang regime's lies about killing people, as it was aired on television, and also about the staged "Tiananmen Square Self-immolation" incident. I explained to her the various doubtful points of those fabricated cases. After that, she said, "It appears that politics, in order to achieve its goals, is indeed very dirty. People just practice the exercises and have done nothing wrong. Why lie so much about them? Without a doubt, this is wrong! People are tortured so terribly. Such good people's lives were ruined." So she thus began to think of things with a clear mind.

Once I sent forth righteous thoughts together with a fellow practitioner. We both noticed that the effect was many times better than when we did it separately. We were in a very good state of sending forth righteous thoughts. Dafa disciples as one body are really powerful. If conditions permit, we should try to send forth righteous thoughts together.

I have a friend who is a Christian. There are many Dafa practitioners in her neighborhood. She said that she had personally witnessed many Dafa miracles. Although she has not learned Dafa yet, she and many other Christians in her area believe that Dafa is really magnificent and is a righteous way of cultivation. She further said, "No one believes in the Party. It only tells lies, and none of what it says is true. It has done too many bad things."

A person that I met through the Internet is a construction worker. After reading the truth-clarification website that I pointed him to, he said, "It was well written, and I feel that it is good. Thank you." There was another person I met on the Internet telling me that although he still did not believe in Dafa, he was surprised that Dafa practitioners can persist for such a long time in such a cruel environment. He also did not understand why there are more and more people coming to learn this cultivation practice and why there are so many practitioners. He said that if he had a chance, he would really want to read the books and see for himself what is inside and why people are so attracted to it.

Once an older lady in the countryside was talking about the staged self-immolation. I asked her, "Please think about why, among so many people who practice Falun Dafa, there were only those five people staging the self-immolation? Furthermore, Tiananmen Square is so big, and where did the fire extinguishers come from all of a sudden? That man was burnt very badly, but why was the plastic gasoline bottle in his chest area still perfectly intact?" Listening to my words, she suddenly understood and said to me, "Young man, you think about things so thoroughly. After listening to your words, I now understand. The self-immolation was fake! I will no longer believe it. What they are doing is really ruining people!"
