(Minghui.org) I began practicing Falun Dafa 16 years ago. At work I use Dafa’s principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance as my guide, and I treat everyone with compassion. I declined the opportunity to be named outstanding employee along with a corresponding pay raise. When the co-worker who was nominated in my place did not know how to create the Powerpoint presentation, I helped him. I even helped him prepare to go onstage and deliver his speech.
My colleagues gradually realized that I was a Falun Dafa practitioner. At first, everyone was surprised, as they had only heard about Falun Dafa but never expected to meet a practitioner. They were curious and asked many questions. I answered all of them. They gained a deeper understanding of Falun Dafa and why the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is persecuting it.
My co-workers later all downloaded software that can help them circumvent the CCP’s Internet firewall. After reading overseas websites their understandings about the true nature of the Party and the persecution deepened.
They learned how the CCP deliberately damaged China’s ancient culture and killed millions of people during its political movements.
Two colleagues wanted to know more about Falun Dafa, so I helped them obtain the book Zhuan Falun. After reading it, they said that Dafa and Master are great. During every festival, such as the Mid-Autumn Festival and Chinese New Year, some co-workers asked me to help them convey their holiday greetings to Master by sending them to the Minghui.org website.
Our department leader heard us talking about the evil nature of the CCP and fully agreed with us. He said, “You can believe anybody but the CCP.” We also often watch the New Tang Dynasty television programs and read the Epoch Times. They all understood the truth and quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.
After the release of the movie “Coming For You,” a colleague and I used three lunch breaks to watch the movie. Afterwards, he asked for Zhuan Falun. This environment set a stable foundation for my cultivation and Fa validation at work.
New Employees Quit the CCP
Last year, the part of our department I was in charge of expanded and we needed to hire more people. We hired more than 10 people. Due to the high intensity of the job, only 6 people stayed on. Before the other 4 left I helped them quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations. They also understood the truth about Dafa. Some of them are still in contact with me.
I am in charge of mentoring new employees. I patiently guide them through the job requirements and help resolve their difficulties. They respect me and even ask my advice about conflicts they have in life. I use the Fa principles and talk to them about my understanding of their problems.
Young people nowadays are frivolous and have no sense of responsibility. One co-worker was thinking of getting divorced. His wife had a bad temper and was not attractive—but their child was only two years old.
I let him listen to the traditional culture segment on the Minghui Radio broadcasts which talk about ancient people’s view of marriage, which revolves around affinity and trust. He enjoyed listening to it. I then told him about the conflicts at home with my family and what I understood from the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. His mindset gradually changed. His attitude towards his wife changed and he learned how to show concern for her. He also gained a sense of responsibility towards his family and his child.
New employees are willing to interact with me. The familiarity and trust between co-workers gradually increased. Under Master’s arrangement, I clarified the truth to them. After understanding the truth, I helped them to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.
I showed them how to circumvent the CCP’s Internet firewall. Everyone gathered around and we logged on and searched for the truth about the Tiananmen self-immolation hoax. We even watched the documentary “Now and for the Future.”
One colleague clarified the truth to his wife after he quit the CCP. His wife also agreed to quit the Party. The next day, he told me his wife’s name and asked me to help her post her withdrawal on the online Global Service Center for Quitting the CCP.
At work I am free to study the Fa, log on to the Minghui website, or listen to Minghui broadcasts. Everyone feels very normal about it. One colleague even asked me if I have the mp3 audio recording of Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. I said yes so he connected his bluetooth device to my device and we all listened as we worked. We also listened to the mp3 of “The Ultimate Goal of Communism.”
When some colleagues meet with problems and are unhappy, they ask me for the mp3 recordings of Master’s lectures to listen. They say that this helps them to “cleanse their soul.”
Everyone’s salary is a secret. However, when I got a pay raise this year, my co-workers knew about it and were happy for me. No one was jealous.
“I Want To Follow You”
When I practiced calligraphy, a few colleagues joined me. When I watched the New Tang Dynasty television programs, they also watched them. The other workers talked about buying a projector so that we could watch the New Tang Dynasty television programs on a big screen during our lunch breaks.
Some employees installed the software on their mobile phones so they could watch New Tang Dynasty television live broadcasts whenever they wanted to. They also watched some movies that I suggested. However, no one ever watched the movies produced by the Party, as they all know they are fake. Sometimes when I became tired and took a break I practiced the first set of exercises. The other employees noticed and asked me to teach them the exercises.
My co-workers noticed that I engraved, Falun Dafa is Good, Truthfulness-Compassion-is-Good, on my cup. Some of them said, “I want a cup like yours. I want to follow you. I want to engrave the Nine Words on my cup.”
I said, “You do not need to engrave the words. Just remember them in your heart.” One co-worker contacted the cup supplier and asked if he could engrave words on the cup. The supplier told him that they will engrave whatever words he wanted. After getting his cup, the colleague was very happy, and he uses it every day. The other colleagues were surprised and said, “They really engraved it for you? We thought they would not be willing to do it.”
A Festive Gathering
Due to the pandemic, our company did not allow us to leave the city during festivals and longer holidays. Those colleagues who were from distant cities and provinces could not go home. A few days before the festival, they asked if I was celebrating the holiday. I said, “Of course! You are all welcome to come and celebrate with my family. The pandemic is not serious in our area and my family welcomes you. I plan to make a stew and have a barbecue at night.”
My colleagues insisted on paying for the supplies. I refused but they insisted. With the extra money I was able to prepare several special dishes. One co-worker came to my home the day before to help prepare the meal.
Everyone came the next day and some even brought their wives and children. Our department in-charge, the manager of our canteen, and the chef all came. Altogether, there were more than 20 visitors that day. They all brought presents. My neighbors noticed that I had many visitors and came over to help. My aunt also volunteered to come and help prepare the meat skewers. After they ate they watched the New Tang Dynasty television programs. They admired the truth-clarifying couplets and window decorations which we hung on the walls and windows.
My colleagues’ wives all know that I practice Falun Dafa. One said, “I clicked a ‘like’ for you on my social media.” They chatted and enjoyed themselves and had a good time. After they went home, my neighbor came over again to help us tidy up.
Conclusion
Our department recently welcomed a new employee. The others asked him, “Have you heard of quitting the CCP and its affiliated organizations? All of us have already quit.” I took the opportunity to tell him why millions of people quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations. I also told him the truth about the persecution of Falun Dafa. The other employees helped by saying, “You need to listen to him, he is not asking you to do anything bad. He just wants you to truly understand. He is truly doing it for your own good.” After understanding the truth, this man agreed to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.
