People Learn the Truth of Falun Gong through Dafa Practitioners' Noble Actions

(Clearwisdom.net)

One day I found there was an extra 6,000 yuan (1) listed on my bank deposit card. Somebody must have deposited the money into my account by accident. Because I am a Falun Dafa practitioner, I could not accept this ill-gotten gain, so the next day I went to the bank and asked the employee to look for the owner of the money. The employee was shocked and said, "Only the people who lost something come to sort out such troubles, we have never seen a case like this since our bank opened. It is surprising that there are such good people." I told the employee, "I am a Falun Gong practitioner. Our Teacher taught us to be good people - the best people." Hearing this, the employee looked at me in appreciation and recorded my address and the amount of the money.

A few days later, the owner of the money called to thank me and said, "I have really met a good person! I am working away from home to help my boss with financial affairs and the boss once told me, 'If any mistakes happen, you are responsible for compensating the loss.' But I lost so much money! I was very anxious so I went to the bank to ask for help. They said they had no way to find the money for me, so I worried day and night. Even if I saved every cent, it would take over a year to compensate for that amount of money! I was worried to death! I didn't expect I could ever meet such good person like you. I must come to your home to thank you."

I told him, "You should thank my Teacher, Mr. Li Hongzhi, because he taught us to behave like this. Falun Gong teaches people how to be good, to follow 'Truthfulness, Benevolence, Tolerance," to be compassionate to other people, and to always think of others first. You don't need to come to my home to thank me and I will not accept your gift. This is just how I should behave. Every Falun Gong practitioner would have done the same thing."

Then I clarified the truth to him about Falun Gong and he said, "I am so grateful to you. Thank you for telling me these things. I am off the hook. I will tell all my friends and relatives what happened to me and I will no longer be deceived by Jiang Zemin's lies, or believe their nonsense any more."

On November 2, 2004 at about 6:30 p.m., I was on duty at my workplace when a senior engineer named Mr. Zhang came to the office and said to me, "Your Falun Gong is really good, and I am completely convinced. Let me take you to dinner. I have apologized to you many times. If you don't allow me to treat you, if you don't forgive me, then I will get down on my knees before you."

What had happened was this: some time ago, at 3:00 a.m. in a morning, Mr. Zhang came downstairs and I said 'hello' to him. Maybe he was angry with somebody and my greeting startled him in the quiet hours of night. He gave me a kick, but I said nothing and just watched him walk away. For two months after that, whenever he saw me he always apologized to me.

Mr. Zhang saw that I didn't understand him, and so he explained,

"Recently, my friend and I were driving somewhere to handle some affairs, when my friend drove the car too quickly and knocked down a middle-aged woman. The woman's hand was bleeding and it took her quite a while to stand up. My friend was scared. He was thinking, 'How much money will I have to pay after driving too fast and causing this accident? How big will the lawsuit be?'

My friend and I were trembling with fear and said to the woman, 'You must be hurt; let's go to the hospital for a check-up.' Who would have thought she would reply, ' I am ok. I am a Falun Gong practitioner. You can leave.' The woman's hand was still bleeding, but she covered the wound using a handkerchief and left. My friend stood there in a daze and said, 'We just met a good person. Falun Gong is great and Falun Gong practitioners have really good self-restraint. I am completely convinced.' I said to my friend, 'There is a Falun Gong practitioner in my workplace.' and I told him about you."

Then I became clearheaded and I said to him, "Actually, it was my fault because I didn't consider that my greeting might scare you in the middle of the night. I didn't cultivate very well. My fellow practitioner cultivated better than me."

Mr. Zhang said, "It is not like that. I am convinced because you and your fellow practitioners all did well. All you Falun Gong practitioners have really great self-restraint."

Through this occurrence, I realized that every person is a type of living media. After experiencing Fa-rectification for all these years, we should treasure even more the fruits of this period, for these fruits are composed of the great suffering that Teacher has borne for sentient beings, as well as the great sacrifice of innumerable Dafa practitioners who have lost their lives in order to clarify the truth and save people.

I realized that as Dafa practitioners we should always display our goodness to people, and do better the three things (2) that practitioners should do during Fa-rectification.

(1) Yuan is the Chinese currency; 500 yuan is equal to the average monthly income for an urban worker in China.

(2) Master Li has asked Dafa practitioners to study the Fa (Law and principles, the teachings of Falun Dafa), send forth righteous thoughts, and clarify the truth of Falun Dafa and the persecution to all people.
