The Climate is Changing

Hurry Up and Tell Them

I have practiced Falun Dafa for several years, and I run a small restaurant in a North American city. I have often had copies of Dafa books sitting on the bar in view of many customers, yet for a long time, it was as if most of them never saw the books. If they did see them, they never expressed much interest in knowing what they were, or what they were all about. Until recently, that is.

Since my return from the activities in Mexico last week, things seem to have dramatically changed. Every day, people ask me about the books. Many have picked them up and started to read them. Regular customers and employees have long known that I practice Dafa, but haven't expressed much interest in it, until now, as they too, now participate in discussions about Dafa and pick up the books that seemed to have been invisible to them in the past.

Last weekend, a regular customer who knew that I'd been travelling to appeal, brought the issue up in front of six of his friends, asking me to explain where I'd been and what I'd done. He returned last night and saw the book on the bar and began asking about it, so I offered it to him. A speed-reader, he immediately read the first couple of chapters of Falun Gong [Introductory text of Falun Gong] and remarked, "Wow. This is amazing. I've got to read more of this book!" He then engaged me and other customers at the bar in a conversation about Falun Gong and the persecution.

Many similar incidents have occurred in the last week since my return. A journalism student has called wanting to conduct interviews for an article. New people are coming to the practice site to learn the exercises. It seems that now, more than ever before, people are not only ready to hear the truth, but stepping forward and asking about it themselves.

My own understanding is that the result of practitioners' worldwide concentrated efforts at sending forth righteous thoughts [using powerful thoughts to purify the environment] is profoundly dramatic. Maybe we can't see the change directly, but a change has occurred. So a lot of bad things that have obstructed our truth clarification efforts, and blocked people's ability to hear what we say, have been cleared away.

My own understanding, then, of the current cosmic climate, is that we should not slack off, that we must continue to diligently send forth righteous thoughts. Also, as Teacher Li has written:

"Hurry Up And Tell Them
As Dafa disciples tell people the facts,
It's like sharp swords shooting out together from their mouths,
Shredding apart the rotten demons' lies.
Lose no time and save them, hurry up and tell them."
