Two Stories of Practitioners Sharing Their Wisdom and Awakening the People
(Clearwisdom.net) The District Secretary Awakens to the Truth One day in 2004, Sister Lin was at home, wearing a vest with the words
"Zhen, Shan, Ren" (Truth, Compassion, Forbearance) embroidered on it.
The district secretary came by and brought along the district director and two
other persons. As soon as the four people entered her house, they were all surprised to see
her vest. The district director couldn't help but ask immediately, "Why do
you wear a vest like that?" Sister Lin replied, "I am really doing things according to 'Zhen, Shan,
Ren.' Wearing this vest will help me do it better." Sister Lin then told
these "caring" visitors two little things she had done based on the
principle of "Zhen-Shan-Ren." The secretary listened to Sister Lin's stories and kept nodding her head and
murmuring to herself, "Falun Gong, Zhen, Shan, Ren is good." Sister Lin also told them about the disasters that the Cultural Revolution
and the Tiananmen Square Massacre had brought to the Chinese people. "Those
were all evil deeds that can never be forgiven, even by the gods," she
said. "Today," she continued, "if anyone informs the police on a
practitioner and, as a consequence, the practitioner is arrested and persecuted
to death, the informer would definitely receive retribution--just like those who
were involved in the Cultural Revolution. If the people don't bring the bad
people to justice, the gods will take it upon themselves to punish them." The secretary and the others felt that Sister Lin had made good sense and
went away without a word. The next day, Sister Lin was on the street and saw that the secretary was
following her again. Sister Lin turned around and initiated a conversation with her. She said,
"Madam Secretary, our predestined relationship leads us to meet
again!" The secretary said, "I have something to talk to you about and something
to ask from you." Sister Lin said, "Never mind. I know what you are going to say." The secretary continued, "The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) doesn't
permit your practicing Falun Gong, so you can't practice Falun Gong. Now the
Political and Legislative Membership Committee is asking me for the list of
Falun Gong practitioners here." Sister Lin said, "You are surely not going to give out such a list.
Things that involve selling someone for profit should never be done. I had my
own office and earned 2000 yuan a month before being fired. I lost a
2000-yuan-a-month income for the sake of cultivation and for Dafa, which is
truly good. If you sell a Falun Gong practitioner for 300 yuan or so, it is a
crime against the Heavenly Law! Let me ask you: Do you want your life or
money?" The secretary replied, "Of course I want my life. But I still want to
ask you about the flyers you post. If I don't tear down the flyers, but I ask
the sanitary workers to do it, is that OK?" Sister Lin said, "This will be very bad for you. You already know the
truth. You're afraid of losing your life but ask others to risk theirs. The gods
think of this kind of person is the worst and will eliminate him first." The secretary said, "I understand now. I won't go down that path." Sister Lin said, "Then you are doing a great thing that will bring you a
good fortune." A bright smile appeared on the secretary's face. She seemed to put down a
heavy burden that she had been carrying on her shoulders for a long time. She
happily said goodbye to Sister Lin and kept thanking her for sharing her wisdom. It became known later that the district secretary didn't hand in the list of
practitioners, and the materials posted on the streets were not torn down. One day, when Sister Lin met the secretary on the street, the secretary
joyfully called her over and said she was reading Zhuan Falun.
She said she felt warm and good after reading the book. Now, this secretary has taken up the Fa and follows the principle of
Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance. Hints from Aunt Hui Aunt Hui was on her way home. She saw a cleaning lady holding a broom in both
hands. The lady appeared deep in concentration as she stood near the door of a
supermarket in the Linghe District. She seemed to have many things to worry
about. Aunt Hui walked close to her and asked with compassion: "My dear, what
are you thinking about?" From the way she asked the question, the girl felt Aunt Hui was like a sister
or aunt, and so she told everything on her mind to Aunt Hui, as if she were a
close relative. She said her husband was having an affair with another woman and
usually came home at midnight. She had suppressed all her emotions and didn't
know what to do, although she had thought of killing her husband. Aunt Hui held the girl's hands and told her, "Regardless of what he has
done wrong, you cannot consider killing him. Handling everything with compassion
is the right path. Society's morality may have gone downhill and led to people
doing bad things, but if you can rise above it and handle things with a truly
compassionate heart, things will turn out for the best." The girl listened to Aunt Hui and couldn't help crying. You could tell how
distressed she was from the way she cried. Aunt Hui's words comforted her. The girl listened to Aunt Hui and had an intimate talk with her. While they
were chatting, the girl remembered a dream she had had the previous night and
told it to Aunt Hui. She said: "Last night I dreamed a big Bodhisattva flew
into my room through the window. She was so splendid and pretty! I can see it
clearly. And she was just like you! Today, the first time I saw you, I felt a
sense of kindness. It's really a predestined relationship to see you here." Aunt Hui said, "I am one who believes in the gods. You see, I'm almost
70 and still so healthy and don't have any diseases. I tell you that people who
believe in the gods will treat others kindly. Take it calmly no matter what
happens and don't think of things in a narrow way." After listening to Aunt Hui's advice, the girl was relieved of her worries.
She happily said that she would treat her husband properly from then on. Aunt Hui said, "I tell you now, for your personal safety, quit the
Chinese Communist Party's three political organizations. No matter what happens
in the future, you won't be affected and you will be safe." The girl listened carefully to Aunt Hui's words. She didn't hesitate and said
she would do what Aunt Hui advised. Posting date: 8/15/2006 |
