After Fa Conference held in New York, I realized that it was the responsibility for us European disciples to clarify the truth to members of European governments. At the same time, I was also thinking about how I could clarify the truth to them since I am a housewife without being able to access the mainstream society.
Not long after the conference, Eutelsat located in France shut down the signal of New Tang Dynasty TV broadcasting to China. This incident has involved hundred of shareholders in Eutelsat, the French Government, the U.S. government, and over 700 European Parliament members. These organizations and individuals are making an important decision regarding their stance on the issue as these decisions will effect their personal futures and positions. In order to inform people of the Eutelsat Incident a series of worldwide events have been held. Five months have passed since the signal stoppage in June, yet the signal still hasn’t been connected. What is the reason for this and why have only over 100 European Parliament members out of more than 700 signed the petition? Recently I have looked inward and found loopholes in my personal cultivation.
The first time I went to take part in an activity which started three days before the European Parliament in Strasbourg, however I only arrived on the second day. In order to save money, several fellow practitioners and I had bought cheap train tickets together, but we did not arrive there until late on the second day when the news conference hosted by NTD TV was coming to an end. I was told by a co-ordinator that the police who were on duty yesterday felt puzzled when they came and saw nobody at the place which we had applied for. A Parliament member said: “We would like to help you but we do not know what to say for you because there was a little attendance here." It was obvious that Master was giving us a hint by using everyday people to point out our shortcoming’s, Dafa disciples in Europe were not positioning themselves well!
We had decided to stay there for a day. Later on, we were told that the French President, as a rotating EU presidency, would come here and there would be a press conference, so we made a provisional decision to stay. On the same day, there were not many practitioners outside the EU Building. Our arms were getting tired by holding banners, we all drooped in the heat of the sun, and then I started to chat with a fellow practitioner near me. Later, practitioners came across difficulties while clarifying the truth inside the building, I feel I let them down because I did not support them with my righteous thoughts during this critical time. Although I was there, my righteous thoughts were not there, so in another dimension, the evil was not eliminated effectively. If fellow practitioners outside had had stronger righteous thoughts and more practitioners had been there, the situation inside would surely have been different. Fellow practitioners who had clarified the truth inside the building said: “When everything was going smoothly, the MP we wanted to look for was right before us or he or she was waiting for us in his or her office, they would be pleased to sign the petition. When something went wrong, we could not find them, even if we did find them, some said they would sign the petition, but in the end they didn’t. I think that it has something to do with our cooperation.”
On 8th of October, NTD TV was holding a press conference outside the Eutelsat shareholders conference in Caen, France. There were about 200 practitioners from different countries in Europe. The scene of our peaceful protest was so great that IT shocked the shareholders inside. Most shareholders received our special issue of Eutelsat Incident. A number of shareholders came out and accepted interviews condemning the company who has yielded to the Chinese Communist Party. Some shareholders expressed that they would look for politicians in French government and MPs to help NTD TV by using their personal connections. At that time, many French media interviewed NTD TV reporters and reported the incident.
For four months, before the Headquarter of Eutelsat in Paris, there have been over 10 fellow practitioners from France sending righteous thoughts every day in all weather, which has moved employees in the company. A friend of Giuliano Berretta, the president of Eutelsat, often comes and does business with the company. One day, he told our fellow practitioners: “I am going to phone Berretta and ask him: ‘Why have you been hard on them? They are a group of very honest and good people.”
At the end of October, there were still Fa-rectification activities before the European Parliament in Strasbourg. Before each activity I studied the Fa online. The voice of two practitioners were suddenly not clear and some other practitioners became very anxious. After that, all of us realized: We were so anxious like that when we could not hear our fellow practitioners reading the Fa clearly. How about Chinese people in mainland China who are facing the black screen of NTD TV? Aren’t they even more anxious? At that time, seven fellow practitioners who had studied the Fa online not only participated the activity before the European Parliament but also shared experiences with and encouraged fellow practitioners in their own countries to participate as well.
The shareholders of Eutelsat had their annual meeting on November the 6th but I thought 'I was just back at the end of last month. If I went and participate in this activity, would my husband be upset? In addition, I didn’t have enough money with me. I had some other Dafa work to do too, I would not participate in this activity, as no matter where I was, I was still doing Fa-rectification work.' But on second thoughts, I asked myself: " The signal of NTD TV has not been connected yet, the evil is still acting violently, but have you already retreated? Don’t you really have enough money to buy a train ticket to Paris? Can’t you leave the Dafa work here which isn't so urgent? Will my husband really stop you from going there? ”
I imagined myself living in China and thought about the 50,000,000 Chinese people in mainland China who were looking forward to the connection of the signal of NTD TV. I also thought about Dafa disciples who took great risks in installing antennas for ordinary people. At present, there aren’t any means and methods of clarifying the truth to people in mainland as effectively as NTD TV did. The content is excellent and easy to understand and the information is spread easily and has a wide range. The earlier NTD TV resumes its broadcast, the more people will be saved!
Having eliminated all my human notions and thoughts, I told my husband that I would participate in the activity in order to have NTD TV’s signal resumed. My husband accepted it calmly and told me not to forget to bring a raincoat with me. He also bought some food for me as well. At that moment, the pure energy field of a cultivator changed an ordinary person and inspired his kind side.
So far the Eutelsat Incident has not been satisfactorily resolved, I think, we should save sentient beings who haven’t yet be saved through this issue, all the disciples in Europe should work harder to form a whole body, so that we can pass the test arranged by master successfully.
We should encourage each other by repeating what Master told us: “Dafa disciples, you are golden light in the mortal world, the hope of the world's people, Fa-disciples who help Master, and future Fa-Kings. Keep diligent, Awakened Ones that walk the earth: Everything of today will be the glory of the future.” (Congratulatory Message )
Thank you, Master and Thank you, my fellow practitioners.
