In a Touring Play, a Practitioner Ends Each Performance by Telling the Audience "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance Is Good"

By a Falun Dafa practitioner in China

(Clearwisdom.net) This year during the Lunar New Year in China, an older Falun Dafa practitioner in Northern China used the opportunity during an arts performance in a village to tell the audience, "One must behave according to "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance;" "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!"

On the eve of the Lunar New Year, an artist from this practitioner's village invited her to participate in the local performance. The practitioner thought that this was a good opportunity to clarify the truth to the villagers, so she agreed. With the support of a few local practitioners, together with another practitioner, they edited the play's plot and changed its ending. They changed the ending of "making the evil person suffer his own retribution" to "the wronged good person forgave the evildoing person and the evildoing person had a change of heart." During the performance, this practitioner elaborated on the spot and told the audience, "I advise people to do more good deeds; one must not be an evil person; one must behave according to "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!" Then she thanked everyone, with her palms held together in front of her chest and went off stage. The audience gave her a loud round of applause.

This performance started on the third day of the first lunar month. Thereafter, every night they went on tour to the neighboring villages to perform until the twenty-eighth day of the first lunar month. This practitioner ended every performance with the same words as above.

As the local practitioners cooperated closely and many of them were present to send forth righteous thoughts, every performance went well and was very successful. The audience benefited from the performance and was full of applause and enthusiasm. During one particular performance on the sixteen day of the first lunar month, certain lawless personnel seemed to have sensed something and the local police arrived in three police cars. The practitioners on stage and among the audience all immediately sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil. In this way, this practitioner managed to say the same words at the end as usual. When the performance ended, the police also got into in their cars and drove away. It was as though nothing happened.
