Recently, while sharing experiences of clarifying the truth about Dafa with fellow practitioners, everyone talked about a similar problem they had. Whether it is through mailing truth materials to our friends and relatives or telling the truth to everyday friends, we would always first think this: will this bring danger to them? When we want to clarify the truth during gatherings with friends, we would think: people are chatting happily, would mentioning something about Falun Gong spoil the mood of the gathering? When making an international phone call with the original intention of telling the truth to family members, we become jittery and end up saying only at the end of the conversation: no matter what, don’t believe the rumors propagated by the media in China, or something similar.
We act as if we are not doing the most righteous and best thing, which is telling the truth to everyday people so that they will not be deceived by the lies, can establish righteous thoughts towards Dafa and thus be saved. It is as if we were putting them in danger, bringing misfortune and unhappiness to them. In fact, this shows that we accept this evil persecution, and identify with the evil’s persecution toward Dafa and practitioners.
With this [kind of] thought in our minds when we clarify the truth, how can we speak with justice, act with dignity and be able to sway everyday people? Sometimes, we even lose precious opportunities to clarify the truth. I have learned a lot of lessons with respect to this. I think that it is very important to firmly use our righteous thoughts. If this kind of evil thought comes out when we are clarifying the truth, we should steadfastly eliminate it so as not to let the evil succeed in its interference. We should think that telling everyday people the truth about Dafa it is the most righteous and best thing to do. Everyday people who know the truth will have a beautiful future. When we clarify the truth to the everyday people who live in the wicked environment in China, we have to clear away all the evil in that dimension, let the people have a chance to know the truth, not be surrounded by layers of fearful thoughts and not accept the evil's arrangement.
