(Clearwisdom.net) I work in a government department in China. As I often go out for business trips, I have been fortunate enough to have opportunities where I've received quite a lot of Falun Dafa truth-clarifying materials, including CDs, brochures, fliers and cards. Whether practitioners have given them to me personally or by other means, my attitude toward them has always been very clear: I accept all of the materials, and sincerely and politely say "thank you" to them while practitioners send me their best wishes.
I do this because I don't think they have done anything wrong.
One day during lunch time, when I walked to the end of a bridge, a bicycle quietly stopped beside me. A middle-aged woman took out a CD from her handbag and said to me, "Please read it well, the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party has exposed the evil nature of the Chinese Communist Party [CCP]. As of this moment, from ordinary people to senior officials in both the military and the government, almost 20 million people have declared their withdrawals from the evil party on the overseas Epoch Times website. Please make sure to remember that one will be saved when he quits the party." I thanked her and accepted the CD, and then put it in my pocket.
Just when I was about to leave, I had a look around. I noticed a pair of eyes not far away, intently staring at her. At that moment, the Falun Gong practitioner was not aware of this at all. I was acutely aware of the situation and was worried about her. I immediately walked towards her and reminded her, "Please hurry up to leave here, as it is not safe." She then followed the direction that I pointed out to her and left safely.
Then, I openly and calmly walked towards the young man who was watching the practitioner a moment ago. It seemed he was aware of my noticing him, and said, "The Falun Gong practitioners are playing politics, they spread these materials everywhere." I stopped for a while and said to him solemnly and calmly, "I know quite a lot about these materials. The Nine Commentaries has exposed the evil nature of the CCP layer by layer, and has stripped off its false mask. Meanwhile, the principle of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" advocated by Falun Gong practitioners is restoring the compassionate nature of humans, purifying people's hearts, improving people's morals and bringing health to people. The CCP defames Falun Gong as superstitious, staged the "self-immolation" incident, and attacks Falun Gong practitioners as playing politics. These are their excuses to confuse right and wrong and to maintain their persecution. These are also their evil fabrications, at the brink of their end. The CCP is pushing people into hell while Dafa practitioners are saving people from being eliminated. In other words, the CCP is killing people and those practitioners are saving people. Where is there politics here? Are there any people in the world playing politics like this? The CCP is deceiving both the people and themselves. What do you think?"
He nodded his head in agreement, and kept silent. I went on to say, "Some people who do not know the truth even now are still helping the evil to commit crimes, watching and reporting on Dafa practitioners. Such crimes are, to give an analogy, like when one falls into a river and is about to drown, someone hurriedly brings a pole and puts it into his hand to save him. However, he grabs the pole and violently knocks the helper on the head with the pole. The moral of the story is that such inhuman and immoral people are not only lamentable, but are also looked down upon by the world's people. I remember a story about the suffering of Jesus, where there were two prisoners who were hammered on crosses along with Jesus. One of them insulted Jesus, saying, 'Aren't you Jesus? Save yourself and also save us!' The other criticized this prisoner, 'We are all tortured in the same way, aren't you afraid of God? We are tortured because we are being punished, because we committed crimes. But he did not do anything bad.' He further said to Jesus, 'Jesus, when you become the Lord, I beg you to please remember me.' Jesus said to him, 'I tell you, today you are going to be with me in Heaven.' This story is telling people that though each situation is different, one should have a compassionate heart at all times, maintain their conscience, and only then will they have a bright future."
The young man seemed to have understood something, and was deep in thought while saying that he agreed.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with Falun Gong practitioners shouting out "Falun Dafa is good!" from the bottom of their hearts when they resist the persecution. There is nothing wrong with appealing peacefully to request the restoration of the reputation of Falun Gong and its founder. There is nothing wrong with exposing the deceit of the "self-immolation" case. There is nothing wrong with exposing various brutal torture methods that practitioners have suffered in the prisons. There is nothing wrong with exposing and stopping the organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners by the evil party. There is nothing wrong with spreading the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, guiding people to withdraw from the party to save themselves, awakening people's inner nature, and going towards a new life, happiness and safety.
What's wrong is the degenerated Party culture and the distorted notions of human beings.
