Personally Experiencing the Difficult and Arduous Job of Delivering Falun Dafa Materials

Several days ago, I assisted a fellow practitioner in delivering Falun Dafa related materials to the countryside and personally experienced the difficult and arduous job of delivering those materials. This extraordinary experience made me appreciate each piece of Master's¹ scripture and the "Minghui Weekly" even more.

Before we left, the fellow practitioner reminded me to wear extra clothing. After I was bundled up, we got on the motorcycle and began our journey.

That day was warm and sunny; it was the warmest of recent days. But as soon as we started the motorcycle, I heard the wind whistling. Cold wind soon penetrated all layers of my clothing and cut into my face from around the rim of the helmet like a knife.

My righteous thoughts soon overcame the cold. I silently recited over and over again the following poem of Master's:

Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Actions

A Great Enlightened Being does not fear hardship
Having forged an adamantine will
And with no attachment to living or dying
He walks his path of Fa-rectification openly and nobly

We arrived safely, smoothly finishing our work. After we arrived home, I could not feel the foot I put down on the ground first. The other leg was also frozen stiff. It took great effort to get off the motorcycle.

I looked at the fellow practitioner who came with me; he stood there looking at me with his good-natured smile. I expressed my appreciation, "What an arduous job you've been doing!" He replied: "It is no big deal. It is a good thing for a practitioner to bear some hardship." His brief reply reflected his character and his level.

After I went home and lay down, I turned the electric blanket on high and still felt as if I were in an icebox. It still felt the cold wind penetrating the three layers of bedding. I truly experienced the difficult and arduous job our fellow practitioners have been doing.

I have been practising Falun Dafa for two years and this was the first time I had delivered any materials. For me it was only one day but other Falun Dafa practitioners have been delivering materials for several years consistently, rain or shine, as long as there is a need for such materials, and as long as the roads are passable. Some of the practitioners have frostbite on their feet, and skin peeling off layer by layer. Some have chilblains on their hands, and bleed from the cracks in their skin.

I solemnly express my appreciation to fellow practitioners: Take good care of yourselves. What an arduous job you have been doing!

I want to tell every practitioner who receives Falun Dafa materials: Please appreciate every piece of Master's scripture and the "Minghui Weekly." Live up to our fellow practitioner's arduous work and Master's compassionate salvation.

Let us do the best we can and walk well the rest of our journey.
