(Clearwisdom.net) Today, I'd like to take this opportunity to share the experience of how my husband and I distributed flyers, clarified the truth, and offered salvation to sentient beings during the period of preparation for the Chinese New Year Spectacular show.

1. Overcoming All Difficulties to Pass Out Flyers on the Street with the Will to Save Sentient Beings

My husband and I are both in our 70's, and we cannot drive or speak English. How do we pass out flyers and save more sentient beings? Master said, "The difference in one thought leads to different results." (Zhuan Falun). We should hold righteous thoughts instead of hesitation or fear.

After some discussion, we decided to distribute flyers at busy locations, such as street corners, supermarkets, Chinatown, and Quantong Square. Every time, we carried hundreds of flyers both in our backpacks and in our hands. We passed out flyers to people we saw in stores, at gas stations, and during the three-hour bus rides back and forth. Master told us to save sentient beings. As practitioners, we should follow what Master told us. We sent forth righteous thoughts every time before we leave, so that everyone with predestined relationships can receive this gift.

We arrived at Colorado Blvd at Pasadena. Each of us stood on a street corner, so we rarely missed anyone passing us.

On the first day, we had a lot of doubts in our hearts, including questions such as "Would people accept us?" With this in mind, almost ninety percent of people said, "No, thank you!" I was concerned and
thought that we should change the situation to keep the evil from taking advantage of this loophole. So I immediately thought, "We came with an important task, with Master and the Fa. People should definitely accept the flyers." I realized that we should improve ourselves and also change our
approach. It was around New Year's time, so I should say "Happy New Year" to people. When people came by, I immediately smiled and said, "Happy New Year!" while keeping eye contact
with them. They responded politely with "Happy New Year to you, too," and accepted the flyers. Suddenly, about half of the people accepted the flyers. In my heart I gave thanks for Master's support and for the assistance from righteous gods.

Although the situation changed, I realized that this sentence alone was not enough. So I thought about other greetings. Soon people around me noticed us. Thus, about seventy percent of people accepted our flyers. Sometimes, a group of young people were waiting at the traffic lights, so I smiled, greeted them and said "Hi! Have a nice day!." Then I handed them flyers, which they accepted. Then, about eighty-five percent of the people accepted flyers. After several days, even the security guards recognized us and greeted us when they walked by.

Once, a mother and her daughter were dining in a nearby restaurant. They noticed us and were moved by seeing us smiling and bowing to everyone who accepted our flyers. The mother bought snacks and drinks for us and asked her seven-year-old daughter to bring them to us. My husband was very touched and bowed to them deeply. Suddenly we had tears in our eyes. What a kind-hearted mother and daughter! They read our flyers carefully. We developed a deeper understanding about this precious opportunity. During this period, some people tried to give us food, and others tried to give us money. We declined all of them. There was a westerner who spoke perfect Chinese. He said he grew up in Beijing. He asked me, "Are you the hostess of the show? You speak so well!" I said no. I thought in my heart, "You should look at my gray hair. I am almost seventy years old. How could I be the hostess? Our hostess is very pretty, young and capable." I thought it was a great opportunity, so I introduced to him that Chinese culture is very deep and has a long history, and he should watch the Chinese New Year Spectacular show. At the same time, I clarified the truth about the persecution against Falun Gong in China. I also told him about the detention my husband and I suffered in China. He was shocked and indignant about what had happened to us.

2. Do Not Forget to Persuade People to "Quit the CCP" When Passing Out Flyers

When passing out flyers about the Chinese New Year Spectacular (CNYS), we should not forget to clarify the truth and save people.

One Chinese lady, after hearing the introduction to the CNYS, organized fifteen friends and family members to come see the show. She said, "I could not fall asleep after watching it. It is very worthwhile, and I want to come again next time!" Her elderly mother especially asked her to thank me. She watched the show and also decided to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

To help us pass out flyers, fellow practitioners made us a banner, which was one and a half meters wide and three meters long. We carried it to busy street corners and supermarkets with lots of Chinese people. We tied one end of the banner to a tree so that only one person is needed to hold it. The banner was very eye-catching.

During this period we also hosted a booth at the Chinese American Expo to introduce Falun Gong. A reporter from a Chinese newspaper came and asked us several questions that he was puzzled about, such as Falun Gong's "involvement in politics," financial situation, and whether we could see doctors etc. We answered them one by one. I smiled and asked him, "Can you tell that I used to have cancer and doctors announced that I would die very soon? In the past dozen years, I followed 'Truth, Compassion, Tolerance' in my daily life. Falun Gong is a very good practice that teaches people
to improve their moral and physical health. You are a reporter. Your pen can save people, and it can also kill people. We hope you understand the truth and write good articles." He listened to me and said, "After getting to know you, now I know what Falun Gong is." He said that the Chinese New Year Spectacular is a very good show and that he would go to see it. We became friends. I invited him to come to our future events, and he agreed. Eventually I helped him to quit Communist Party Youth League.

During this period, we passed out more than 10,000 flyers and helped more than 40 people quit the CCP. To date, I have helped a total of 555 people quit the CCP.

We did so little, and we did not even do well on these things. We are still far from Master's requirement. In the future, we should be more diligent.
