On the Effectiveness of Letters and Phone Calls from Overseas Practitioners


(Clearwisdom.net) I called home and talked to my family about withdrawing from the Communist Party, Youth League and Young Pioneers League. Since my hometown is a small, remote village, little news from the outside world ever reaches there. Also, father seems to blindly worship the evil Communist Party. I thought that it wouldn't be possible to convince them to withdraw. However, soon after we talked, to my surprise, they agreed to do so. Later, I knew that this occurred because overseas Dafa practitioners had previously called my hometown, and many people knew that withdrawing from the Communist Party could save their lives.

Later, I talked to one of my classmates living in another city. He agreed to withdraw as well. He had read this kind of information in a chat room on the Internet, where another practitioner was "clarifying the truth". After hearing only a few sentences, the person who was listening immediately wrote down his real name and said that he wanted to quit the Communist Party. He also said that he had more than 100 business clients who wanted to withdraw and inquired of the practitioner how to help them to do this. He said that he had received many emails with this information and that he had read every one of them and, therefore, understood the situation quite well.

Last winter I went back to my hometown. Someone in the village received a phone call from an overseas Dafa practitioner. Another person said that he would be very happy if he could receive this phone call also. He had always wanted me to put his telephone number on the Internet. In fact, many people who live in the countryside are quite curious about the phone calls from overseas.

When we clarify the truth, some people may not be happy initially. They will not listen or read. But as they learn additional information, more evil factors will be eliminated. As a result, it becomes something very natural for them to accept the truth. I remember an analogy that one practitioner once shared, "It is like eating pancakes. It is not the last pancake that makes one full. It is those that he has already eaten. When he has the last one, he will say.... I'm full."

Master once said,

"Don't overlook any of the things that Dafa disciples do. Your every word, every flyer, every keystroke, every telephone call, and every letter is having a huge impact." ("Teaching the Fa at the 2003 Midwest-US Fa Conference")

In my opinion, Dafa practitioners both inside and outside of China should cooperate with each other even better. Those in Mainland China can do the collecting of telephone numbers and email addresses and then send them to overseas practitioners, who can then use them to clarify the truth. This should work well.

This is my personal understanding. If there is anything inappropriate, please correct me.
