Walking a Smooth Path by Refusing to Acknowledge the Old Forces


(Clearwisdom.net) I have practiced Falun Gong for more than ten years, and have walked a smooth path due to Master's protection. I have not suffered severely from the persecution, but I encounter small tribulations and difficulties. When the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began its persecution of Falun Gong, the cultivation environment changed, but I never thought that I would be arrested or persecuted. Whenever important holidays and sensitive dates occurred, negative notions never existed in my heart. I always remembered,

"Dafa is what you carry everywhere,
Zhen Shan Ren, rooted in the mind;
A great Arhat walks the earth,
Gods and demons fear with awe."

("Benevolent Might" from "Hong Yin", version A)

One day, I went to post truth-clarifying materials on local street lampposts. An individual witnessed my activities, and attempted to call the police. I had no fear, and although he tried calling the police on his cell phone several times, his calls never connected. Eventually, he suggested that I return home. As I headed for home, I continued posting materials.

I have not attended school, but can still read. I began learning to read when I started practicing Falun Gong. I understood the Fa slowly, and have relatively few thoughts. I only think that I am a Dafa disciple, and should never forget to save sentient beings. I usually buy something while on the street carrying the truth-clarification materials, then distribute these materials face to face or place them on store counters. If the opportunity presents itself, I talk directly with people. These are natural activities for me. I don't become concerned about people's attitudes - I just save them.

There are few practitioners where I live. Thousands of sentient beings are waiting for us to save them, and I feel that these are difficult and important responsibilities. I have sent practitioners' letters and truth-clarification materials to members of the 610 Office families, and to those police officers who participate in the persecution. I have also sent these materials to hospitals, schools, markets and shops. When I distribute the truth-clarification materials, I have no fear or thoughts. On one occasion I was reported to the authorities when I distributed truth-clarifying materials to government offices. After a while, officers approached me and asked if I had distributed the materials. I didn't cooperate with their interrogation, and instead told them the facts about Falun Gong, and then they simply went away.

I know that I have avoided dangerous incidents due to Master's protection and my righteous thoughts. From this moment forward, I completely refuse to acknowledge the old forces, and will walk a smooth path.

I cannot drive, and at times distribute truth-clarification materials quite a distance away, but I don't get tired. Once I distributed the materials without first doing righteous thoughts, and fell down along the way, although I did not feel pain at the time. When I returned home, I knew that my leg was injured, but I could still work and distribute the materials.

My family members often worry about me when I clarify the truth out in public areas, and they always ask me where I'm going. I simply tell them that I am going to save sentient beings. They don't say anything else to me, and I know that these are righteous words.

I always remember that I save sentient beings, and that nothing can interfere with my efforts. I always have strong righteous thoughts, and live strictly within the standards of the Fa. However, I know that I am far from meeting Master's wishes. I can't compare myself with fellow practitioners who save many sentient beings. I am writing about my experiences to help gain a deeper understanding. I never recognize the old forces and completely refuse to acknowledge them. I follow the road which Master has arranged for me.

Please kindly point out anything inappropriate.
