Practitioner Clarifying the Truth Leads to His Supervisor Learning the Truth and Resisting the Persecution
A Dafa practitioner in China
(Clearwisdom.net) I used to work in a company with a high salary and
admirable benefits. Two years ago, after being released from a forced labor
camp, I was demoted and sent to work in a subordinate department because of my
insistence on practicing Falun Dafa. I was suspended for several weeks and then asked to work at the front desk
for three months. I was very diligent and responsible with my duties with no
complaint, as well as being polite and kind to my co-workers. Because of that,
my supervisor arranged for me to go to a new post where I had to do a job that
normally took three employees (according to insider information I learned later,
it was actually a plot to "transform" me -- keeping me busy all the
time with no time to think about Falun Dafa). Even though the work was very
tiring, with wisdom from the Fa, I was able to fulfill the duty along with my
cultivation. I also paid attention to Xinxing improvement in all
circumstances, and always reminded myself of a practitioner's mission. With
righteous thoughts and righteous actions I was also able to overcome the block,
as well as send forth righteous thoughts once an hour to eliminate any
interference. My outstanding performance and accomplishments soon brought trust and praise
from both my supervisor and colleagues. Especially my supervisor, he often
expressed deep trust in me. At work, I tried to use good opportunities to
clarify the truth to my supervisor and people I met. The appropriate manner I
had when clarifying the truth made my supervisor and co-workers have a positive,
deeper understanding of Dafa. In this way, many people were also saved. When I first started to work there, based on "transformation"
quotas from higher managers, my supervisor talked to me twice about my practice
of Falun Dafa. In the following two years, although higher managers requested
brainwashing many times, my supervisor and related personnel never interfered
with me. Instead, they found excuses and evaded it. A few days ago, a higher
manager called saying that headquarters required the department that I work in
to transform all Falun Gong practitioners prior to a specified date and those
who insisted on the practice would be fired. It was also emphasized that it
could not be postponed. Upon this, my supervisor thought he could no longer find
excuses to evade it. So he talked with me, hoping me to write a fake
"transformation letter" to give up my practice and deceive the higher
mangers. He said, this way both the department and myself would no longer be
bothered, and things would end there. I felt it was another opportunity to clarify the truth. Instead of being
disturbed by this situation, with compassion and wisdom I calmly told my
supervisor and co-workers the principle that a Dafa practitioner had to be
consistent in his words and action, particularly my direct supervisor, who had
understood me well due to my performance. With mutual support and respect, I
provided him with some Dafa materials so that he could understand me better and
learn the reason why I would not write a fake "transformation letter." My supervisor then said to me, "You have clarified to the [Communist]
Party that the practice of Falun Gong has no political aspirations, nor is it
harming society or anyone, but instead helps you to become better people.
Furthermore, you have been working hard with no complaints, and do not care
about personal loss. For a good person like you, why have to write a letter to
forsake the practice? Let alone being fired... we will work on trying to keep
you." Several days later, my supervisor came up to me said, "Things are OK
now. You can continue to work as you usually do." After saying that, he
left, as if nothing had happened. Those few days, which might seem quite frightening to anyone else, made me
once again witness the magnificence and greatness of Falun Dafa. On the surface,
it was an upright supervisor who helped to keep and protect a Dafa disciple. In
reality, it was Falun Dafa that, through a Dafa disciple's righteous thoughts
and actions, made him come to know the truth and choose a wonderful future!
