By a Falun Gong practitioner in Taiwan

Greeting to Teacher! Greeting to fellow practitioners!

Teacher said in "Teaching the Fa at the 2004 Washington DC Fa Conference:"

"such an immense Law--and Fa-rectification--such a major event. That alone lifts you to a lofty place. And what's more, everything that you do in Fa-rectification is for sure the most magnificent, because even history was created for it. So you should try your best to do well the things that a Dafa disciple should do, and every single thing is of utmost importance. I've asked you to do the three things well. You must do the three things well. You should do those things well all the way up to your Consummation. Your mighty-virtue and everything of your future come from those things."

From this I understood the importance of Dafa practitioners doing the three things well, all the while strengthening and improving oneself in the Fa, countering the persecution, and offering salvation to sentient beings.

Because I feel that I am slow in reading and studying the Fa, I get up at 4 a.m., read the Fa for an hour, and then go to a practice site to do the exercises. When I return, I go to the hospital to look after my spouse. In the afternoon, I do some reading and afterwards I clarify the truth. After I take a rest and have dinner, I resume truth clarification until sending forth righteous thoughts at night, before going to sleep.

Though everyone has a different cultivation path, I would like to talk about how I use the computer to clarify the truth. Because my grandson is away at college, the computer at home is available. A class on clarifying the truth via the Internet was held, and I attended. After I joined the computer class in early October 2005, I began to make use of the Internet to clarify the truth and successfully advised a person to quit the CCP. From then on, I recorded each person I successfully advised and today there are over 1,000 names. There are over 16 million people who have withdrawn from the CCP on The Epoch Times website, and behind every sentient being, there are countless lives in the universe being saved. Accordingly, I have made diligently efforts to contribute.

I have been retired for over 20 years, and I had never used a computer. However, when I weighed my lack of computer experience against such a large number of people who do not know the truth, I was undaunted by my lack of experience. When I let go of this attachment, Teacher helped me. Our Dafa practitioners are one body, and fellow practitioners created very detailed instructions on how to use the computer to get onto the Internet and clarify the truth. All of these things are arranged by Teacher.

Once, nobody agreed to quit the CCP after an entire day of chatting. Immediately, I became very impatient and wanted to stop clarifying the facts, but when I thought about how so many people still had not heard about the truth, I kept going, even after I sent forth righteous thoughts at 9 p.m. Suddenly "After passing the shady willow trees, there will be bright flowers and another village ahead!" (Zhuan Falun) Several people wanted to quit, and I was glad that I did not give up. That experience let me realize the importance of persistence.

Another time, a fellow practitioner asked me to help handle some matter that was probably a very simple thing for other practitioners, but for me it would take a long time. Even so, I agreed. Although I was already busy clarifying the truth on the Internet, I still made time to deal with that matter. Teacher saw my heart of sincerely wanting to undertake more work for Fa-rectification, and the next day when I chatted with people to quit the CCP, over ten people agreed to quit. I thought that Teacher was encouraging me. Just like Teacher said:

"Cultivation depends on one's own efforts, while the transformation of gong is done by one's master." (Zhuan Falun)

We only try our best to cultivate well, while Teacher arranges everything else by bringing those people who can be saved to us, so that we can help them to quit the CCP.

Once a person on the Internet asked me to help him withdraw from the CCP. He followed up by asking if I wanted to know who he was. He said that he was a high-ranking military official.

I wanted to share today that as long as we sincerely care, Teacher will provide us with ample opportunities. The Fa-rectification period won't be long, and we can do even better.
