By a practitioner in Guangdong Province

(Clearwisdom.net) My school's language class has an activity called "A three-minute speech." Every day, a student goes to the front of the class to give a short speech. In the past, each talk more or less promoted the evil communism. Then I realized that I needed to use this opportunity to clarify the truth and save sentient beings.

The day before my speech, I became unusually sleepy. The next morning, I woke up at 5 o'clock and I could not go back to sleep again. I felt sleepy and tired, and I had a headache. I almost fell asleep when sitting in the classroom with my eyes open. I also became agitated. I realized that this was interference from the evil, and the purpose was to stop me from clarifying the truth. I began to recite Hong Yin and send forth righteous thoughts. With my righteous thoughts, I regained energy and felt warm in my heart. I knew that things would be all right as long as I had righteous thoughts.

At noon, I went to a practitioner's home. I told her what happened to me, and asked her to send forth righteous thoughts to help me. After returning to school, I studied Fa for a while, and read the Minghui Weekly. As the bell rang for class, I asked from my heart for Teacher to help me. Then I walked to the front of the room and began my speech:

"Today is a beautiful day with nice sunshine. Standing here, I have a feeling of peace and happiness. Right now, I am simple and happy. But did you know that in the past I was selfish and obsessed with fame? Whenever there was something I wanted but could not obtain, I complained and suffered. That lifestyle was very difficult. However, when I was almost hopeless, I met a Teacher who taught me the three words of 'Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance'."

Then, I wrote the three words on the blackboard, "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance."

"... Today, I would like to recommend these three words, 'Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance', the most sacred words for me, to you. I would also like to send my best regards to my Teacher far away. Teacher, with compassion and tolerance you have accommodated me, a selfish child, as a student. You have also given the best to your students. Deep in my heart I will always remember and cherish the three words of 'Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance', and live my life well. ... I hope that through the words of 'Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance', each of you can also find true happiness. Thank you very much!"

With warm applause from my classmates, I walked back to my seat with tears. The class instructor then told the students, "We were just told the three words 'Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance', which are so precious. We can imagine that anyone who could act according to these words will have a perfect journey in life. Let's give another warm round of applause to this student."

More applause came, which showed the real attitude of these sentient beings toward Dafa. The three words 'Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance' were saved on the blackboard until end of that day.

Later, a classmate who already knew the truth of Dafa told me, "When I heard you give the speech, my heart was touched and filled with warmth. It was so great!" I told her, "That is the power of righteousness. All Dafa practitioners in the world are one body, and we firmly believe in Dafa."

We already began practicing Falun Dafa in this human life, is there anything that can prevent us from being more diligent?
