By an overseas Dafa practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net)

"I will definitely learn it in the future."

I live overseas and am close friends with my roommate; he knows the facts about Dafa quite well. Whenever he has a chance, he tells his friends about Dafa. One time when he went back to China, he talked to his friend about Dafa. The friend's parents became very nervous and suggested that talking about it was all right, but learning Dafa was not. He said: "Falun Gong practitioners neither smoke nor drink, and are extremely loyal to their loved ones; they try not to kill even flies and mosquitoes but instead find a way to drive them out of the room. Many people would like to learn but are not qualified." When asked why he didn't learn, he said: "I still have a lot of bad habits that I haven't gotten rid of yet. If I practice Falun Gong now, I may discredit Falun Gong's reputation. I will definitely learn it in the future."

My former colleague and I are very close friends, and he knows that Dafa is good. He said to me, "Actually, there is no need for me to read the books of your practice; I can tell just by watching your behavior that Falun Gong is good." He frequently clarifies the facts about Dafa to his friends. Sometimes, when he cannot convince others, he will arrange opportunities for me to talk to his friends. One time before he returned to China, he read all kinds of different Dafa truth clarification materials. During his trip to China, he talked about Dafa to many friends in the judicial system.

I have told them that anyone who supports Dafa will receive blessings. However, they told me that they tell others about Dafa out of their conscience, and they did not think of any reward.

In the past, I felt sorry for those who do not practice Dafa. Later, Teacher's lecture helped me understand that when we are righteous, people around us will feel that Dafa is good and will tell others.

"When they see Dafa's situation around the world they'll talk about it in China, talk about it to their family and friends¡ªthey're a form of one-on-one media. Regardless of how much they understand Dafa, whether they're able to comprehend it or not, they bring it back and talk about this type of situation." ("Explaining the Fa During the 2003 Lantern Festival at the U.S. West Fa Conference")

In the past, when Dafa was being spread in China, one person spread the word to ten, ten to a hundred, person to person, and heart to heart. We should clarify the truth in the same way, so that we can achieve the result of clarifying the truth on a large scale.
