Encouraging Fellow Practitioners to Go Out to Validate the Fa and Save Sentient Beings

(Clearwisdom.net) On the evening of July 20, 2005, my fellow practitioners and I had a group study. Upon finishing, I was leaving to go back home when I remembered that today was the sixth anniversary of the persecution of Falun Dafa. Teacher had said that practitioners have matured from cultivation and assisted Teacher in validating the Fa. We have to conduct ourselves well to deserve the title that Teacher had given us. I inform new practitioners of the evening activities if they want to attend. When they asked what kind of activity, I said, "Go out to hang banners and distribute truth clarifying materials." They then wanted to join.

As we prepared, we sent forth righteous thoughts on the hour, shared with new practitioners our experiences doing truth clarification work, and gave tips on how to get better outcomes with firm righteous thoughts. Teacher said that Dafa practitioners only have the duty of saving sentient beings through truth clarifying work while simultaneously eliminating the evil, validating Dafa, and saving beings. With this new useful information, the new practitioners were full of confidence.

At around 10:00 p.m. that evening, the practitioners and I left in groups. We worked on several streets and visited some villages where we distributed Dafa materials to each family. We hung up banners such as "Falun Dafa is Good," "Falun Dafa is the Righteous Fa," and "Bring Jiang to Justice" on the main routes to the villages. While we were working, we constantly sent forth righteous thoughts with one thought, "Let everyone in the world know that Falun Dafa is good, and choose a beautiful future for themselves." As a result, the entire process went smoothly.

Every time we hung up the banners, I used a bamboo stick to hang them up. However, for the last few banners, I was not able to hang them up. Later a new practitioner volunteered to help and hung the last few banners without any problems.

On our way home, practitioners shared their experiences. A new practitioner said, "At the beginning, I did not feel well but I understood it was evil's interference as they didn't want me to validate the Fa. Also I was nervous because it was my first experience in validating the Fa. However I thought, "What was the point in coming here if I didn't do anything?" After I finished the work, I had an indescribable feeling of changes in my body and physically experienced Dafa being magical and supernatural." Another new practitioner said, "Don't forget to tell me when there are more activities like this."

New practitioners in our area have improved. After they go home, they are able to proactively clarify the truth of the persecution to others in their area and save many beings.

I think that Dafa practitioners during the Fa-rectification period have the responsibility to lead their fellow practitioners who have not come out to validate the Fa, to encourage them to save sentient beings.

Let us all improve together and advance ourselves as a whole. It is essential we don't let down the expectations that the teacher has given us, and use these opportunities to eliminate our attachments and human notions. At the same time, from the angle of validating the Fa, we can clearly view the current situation, eliminate every single thread of bad thoughts in our minds, and reach the standard that is expected of us.

Above is my own understanding that I would like to share with fellow practitioners, so please kindly point out anything inappropriate.
