Daily Encounters Remind Me to Save Sentient Beings without Delay

I have had many memorable encounters on my path of validating the Fa in the past few years. These truth clarification experiences have made me realize that numerous sentient beings are waiting for us to save them.

Once while staying at a hotel, I noticed a nice young woman who worked there, and I "clarified the truth" about Falun Gong to her. She seemed willing to listen, so I told her that I would bring some truth clarification materials to her the next time I saw her. The next time that I stayed at the same hotel, I was assigned to one of the rooms that she was in charge of. I left a big bag of truth clarification materials with her. She was so delighted that she held the materials in her arms and said to me, "The place where I am from doesn't have any of these materials, and I want to take some back to my family." Several days later I dropped by the hotel to visit her, but her boss said that the girl had resigned and gone home. Another girl, the hotel gatekeeper, also understood the truth about Falun Gong and asked me for more truth clarification materials for her parents and her boss. The boss also had a predestined relationship with the Fa. After receiving the materials, he played the truth clarification VCD for his employees.

Another time I happened to stop by a vendor's booth as I was taking flyers to a fellow practitioner. An elderly lady standing nearby looked at me and asked, "Why do you look so beautiful?" Because I was carrying a lot of materials and didn't want to delay delivering them, I didn't respond to her right away and left the booth after I finished shopping there. The lady followed me as I left and asked again, "Why are you so beautiful?" I realized that I couldn't keep silent any longer, so I stopped and told her that I practiced Falun Gong. She then asked right away, "Where do you practice? I want to practice, too." I asked her to wait for me while I quickly delivered the flyers and brought back some VCD's and flyers for the lady. I reminded her to look at the materials at home, but she opened the package right away and said, "I'm not afraid."

Once a tricycle ran into me as I was going to a mall. A lady older than I was riding the tricycle. We started talking, and I told her the truth about Falun Dafa. She was not only happy to hear about Dafa but also wanted to learn the exercises. When she asked me where she could find me, I said, "We have a predestined relationship and will meet again for sure."

Another time I was asked to be a doorkeeper for two days. I noticed a woman in her fifties looking in at me from the outside, so I asked her, "What are you looking at?" She said, "Why are you so beautiful?" Hearing this, I realized that she was also someone waiting to obtain the Fa. I told her that Falun Dafa is wonderful so that she could understood the truth about Dafa and Teacher, who has come to save sentient beings.

I have found that children are also waiting for us to save them. Whenever I gave truth clarification materials to children, I told them to pass them on to their parents to read. The children took home the materials happily. Not until now did I realize that it is not we who are looking for children to save, but children who have been looking for us.

Once I went to visit a relative who was working overtime. A boy, not yet three years old, came in from another room and into my arms and wanted me to hold him. His mother was surprised, "What's happening to that child today? Normally he doesn't like strangers." The thought came to me that maybe he wanted to listen to me talk about Dafa. I held him in my arms and said to him, "I am a Falun Gong practitioner." He replied, "Oh?" The expression on his face and his voice were like an adult's. Then I told him to say, "Falun Dafa is good." He did say loudly, "Dafa is good" a few times. I could see tears in his eyes. Maybe it was just for this that he came to this world.

We should be responsible to Teacher's merciful arrangements and treasure the time that we have. We should be responsible to our Teacher and all the sentient beings.
