A Christian becomes a Falun Dafa Disciple

(Clearwisdom.net) I started practicing Falun Dafa in late 2006. Before then, I was a Christian. In September 2006, I read a news article on BBC. Its title was "The Industry Built on Death in China." It reported the horrifying crime that the Chinese Communist Party is harvesting organs from living Chinese citizens. In the following days, I read through many related news articles. My eyes swelled with tears. After the shock and pain I felt, I started to read materials about Falun Gong, and decided to start doing something to stop this kind of evil.

After I read Zhuan Falun the first time, my soul told me that Master was the highest God who came to save human beings. He is the "Savior who will come again," as mentioned in the Holy Bible. My soul believed this firmly, and I became very excited. My soul repeated that Falun Dafa is so good! So wonderful! I also wanted to practice, but the notion formed in religion was an obstacle for me. I had always prayed to heavenly God the father in the name of Lord Jesus before. The question of loyalty bothered me. I became puzzled, and I struggled because I was not clear about the relations among gods. If I followed Master, would those gods, whom I had formerly believed in, become sad? They were all gracious to me. Thus, I struggled with this human attachment for two whole weeks. One day, I suddenly had a thought: it did not matter if I was not clear about the relations among gods. The most important thing is that Master is now saving people and Dafa is so magnificent. In the future, after we cultivate well, and we all return to our homes in the heavens, won't it all become clear? Our feeling grateful to and loving our human parents did not hinder our recognition of the true heavenly father. Our following Master, who offers genuine salvation to us, does not affect our gratitude for other righteous gods who helped us before. Master, being the teacher for one day, becomes the father for a lifetime. Master is also the father. I will remember all that the gods in religions did for us, and will not forget them all my life, but at present, the evil Chinese Communist Party is persecuting Dafa and people who cultivate their hearts. Master is saving us. I should do something to help my fellow countrymen in China; I should help Master with Fa-rectification. I could choose to stay in my religion, which was very easy and comfortable, but my soul and conscience would never be in peace. We should go out and follow Master in Fa-rectification. That evening, Master gave me a Falun and accepted me as a Dafa disciple. I felt very fortunate and very grateful to Master. I also felt grateful to gods in my former religion, just as I had always been grateful for my parents. I decided to follow Master wholeheartedly in Fa-rectification.

I prepared to go back to China to spend Christmas with my parents. Therefore, I needed to prepare some truth-clarification VCDs during the two months before my return. In addition to studying Master's articles, practicing the sitting meditation in full lotus, and sending forth righteous thoughts, I squeezed in a lot of time every day for reading articles on Clearwisdom.net, Epoch Times, PureInsight website, and so on. I collected all articles about live organ harvesting, lots of articles about prophecies, lots of photos showing the beauty and goodness of Dafa, all the digests about international support, all the articles on natural disasters and man-made disasters, and all software tools to break the CCP's internet blockade. I sorted everything by topic.

During my one month visit to China, I helped most of my relatives to withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party, and clarified the truth to almost all former friends, colleagues, and clients. In the evenings, I also made use of all shopping opportunities to distribute truth-clarification VCDs. While traveling, I distributed VCDs in taxis. In one month, I distributed nearly 100 VCDs. I also got up at 4:40 a.m. every morning to send righteous thoughts on the hour.

One month seemed like one year to me. Every day there were different missions to save sentient beings. I passed through the days hour by hour. Every time I developed the mentality of seeking comfort, I tried to eliminate it. In China, there was a big outbreak of infectious disease. After going back there, I had headaches and a stuffy nose for nearly two weeks. When clarifying the truth in taxis, I also encountered many problems because of my neglect of sending righteous thoughts. With Master's strengthening, I kept doing truth-clarification until the day of my return.

After coming back from China, I started doing truth clarification to China via the telephone and the Internet. Most of the time, I could keep on doing the exercises, studying the Fa, sending forth righteous thoughts, and clarifying the truth every day. Sometimes I also slack off, but as soon as I slack off, the evil interference catches up. Either I feel uncomfortable in my body, I become sleepy and sluggish, or I would have xinxing problems, or other problems. Therefore, I try to be strict with myself as much as possible. Since the evil is constantly trying to exploit our loopholes, we should cultivate diligently forward while denying the evil persecution.
