[PureInsight.org] The company
where Lin Yi is working needed to hire a new staff member and she was
in full charge of the hiring. In the past several days, she has set up
some appointments with a few people to have interviews. Lin Yi just
received a phone call from a woman called Yiyi Lin who is applying for
the position. Through the conversation, she felt the woman had a sharp
mind and was capable of doing the job, so she made a special
arrangement for an earlier interview.
Yiyi Lin came on time. During the conversation, the two felt definite
rapport with each other. Lin Yi felt that Yiyi Lin's smile came from
her heart and was very sincere, and that made the feeling close. Yiyi
Lin told her some experiences in her work that only a person with very
high xinxing could handle.
Noticing the unfilled blank under the "political background" question
on the application form (which was left there intentionally when LinYi
designed the form), Lin Yi tried to ask Yiyi why she didn't write
anything. Yiyi first emphasized that she had not been a party member or
a youth league member since a long time ago. When LinYi further pointed
out that many people had withdrawn from these organizations, Yiyi
agreed and said that the Party indeed had a bad reputation. During the
conversation, Lin Yi also felt a serene field, but couldn't break
through some delicate consideration to express her real thinking in her
heart. So, she intentionally expressed some principles she followed
when dealing with people and taking care of issues, and some details of
her work. Before Yiyi left, Lin Yi shook the mouse in front of her
computer. The screen saver disappeared, showing the newly updated
interface. Yiyi Lin had a look and then they said goodbye with smiles
for each other.
More applicants came afterwards and among them, many were well
experienced. However, compared with them, Lin Yi still thought that
Yiyi Lin's personality was more attractive. Although her previous work
experience was not as great for the projects of the company, Yi Lin
believed that her ability wouldn't fall short. In Yi Lin's eyes, Yiyi
Lin's strong points could obviously cover her lack of experience. On
the day of the Moon Festival, Yiyi Lin received the phone call
informing her of her success in the interview and being accepted to
work.
On the first day Yiyi came to work, she was getting to know the
business. The two of them were talking while doing the work. Lin Yi's
special feeling became even stronger. During the conversation, Yiyi
mentioned a dialogue between her and a customer when she was with her
previous company: "... Then, I said to him: ‘do you know why? Because I
have my belief but the CCP does not allow people to have it...'"
At this point, Lin Yi realized that Yiyi was hinting to her something
and her heart started to jump faster. She asked with a smile: "What is
your belief?"
Smiling, Yiyi didn't answer right away. She was thinking about how she
should answer the question. After a moment, Yiyi said with a smile:
"Belief in God." They laughed happily together at the same time.
The laugh was so natural and from the heart. Lin Yi thought: It is
that, and surely it is. In the environment of China, how could it
possibly be any other belief?
Next, it was still Yiyi who spoke first: "You have heard of Falun Gong,
haven't you?" Lin Yi could no longer control her emotion and tears
filled her eyes. It was truly so touching it could not be described in
words. It was like family members who lost contact a long time ago
being reunited in an environment full of danger and difficulty many
years later.
They calmed down a little, Yiyi wiped her eyes and said: "I knew it on
the first day I came here. I was thinking how to tell you. I told my
Mom on the day of the Moon Festival that my new supervisor is maybe a
Dafa practitioner.
Lin Yi said: "Actually I had the same feeling and told my husband the
same thing. Do you remember the details when we were together? I
intentionally did those things to show you. Think about it, the blank
under the "political background," the marks of software and desktop on
the computer and my attitude in dealing with people and affairs."
"Yes. Why didn't I pay attention...ha ha ha..."
The two talked happily for a whole afternoon and were as happy as the
kids who just started vocation after a long term of hard study and
final examinations. They didn't even complete the work for the day. But
with such a good mood, the job could wait until a little later.
"Buddhas are omnipresent" and nothing is accidental. Gods arrange
everything. As Dafa disciples, Lin Yi and Yiyi of course should be
grateful for their great master.
In Mainland China, the number of Dafa cultivators is as large as
several tens of millions. However, due to the crazy persecution by the
evil, it is not convenient for many of them disclose their identity,
and many fellow practitioners can't recognize each other even when
passing by side by side. Dafa disciples met and got to know each other
in a job interview. What a happy thing it was. An old saying goes:
"meeting with old friends in an alien land" is one of the four fortunes
in one's life. But what can be compared with the happy meeting of the
two practitioners? She was thinking that the magnificent and grand
manifestation of Falun Dafa's displaying in the human world might not
be very far and by then, practitioners from all over the world would be
happily reunited in Mainland China. However, Lin Yi and Yiyi did not
forget that they could not develop the attachment of complacency.
Meeting and getting together with each other in this way was for them
to better fulfill their grand wish and historical mission of spreading
the Nine Commentaries and saving sentient beings.
