尊敬的师父好！
各位同修好！
我今年已70岁出头，是1996年得法的大法弟子，下面就我走过的修炼路向师尊汇报，和同修交流。
Greetings Revered Master!
Greetings fellow practitioners!
I am a 70-year-old Dafa disciple who obtained the Fa in 1996. I would like to report to Master and share with fellow practitioners about my cultivation journey.
一、紧跟正法進程救度众生
Steadfastly following the Fa-rectification pace in saving sentient beings
明慧网编辑部于2000年9月26日发表了《严肃的教诲记师父最近一次谈话》：师父说：”一个神在正法中，他们对大法的一念就决定了他们的存与灭。那些得了大法的还能和常人一样对待吗？得了法却不能证实法，还配当大法弟子吗？无论他们怎么在家里所谓的坚持学法炼功，都是被魔控制着，走向邪悟。”
On September 26, 2000, Minghui Net published the editorial “Serious Teachings”. In the article, Master said: “In the midst of the Fa-rectification, a god’s single thought about Dafa determines his existence or destruction. Can those who’ve obtained Dafa regard things as everyday people do? If a person has obtained the Fa but isn’t able to validate the Fa, does he still deserve to be a Dafa disciple? No matter how he persists in studying the Fa and doing the exercises at home, he is being controlled by demons and is enlightening along an evil path.”
我把师父的话牢牢记在心里，我必须出去证实法，否则我就不是大法弟子。在以后证实法的路上我一直做着大法弟子该做的事，紧跟正法進程。
I kept Master’s words in my mind. I told myself that I must persist in validating the Fa; otherwise, I couldn’t consider myself a Dafa disciple. Since then, I have been following the Fa-rectification steadfastly, and doing all the things that a Dafa disciple ought to do.
2002年来到澳洲后，就一直在讲真相发资料，打国内电话，揭露迫害；2004年《九评共产党》发表，我就发《九评》；2005年”三退”开始，我就打电话先给亲朋好友做三退，接着打电话给世人做”三退”。我不想错过任何一个”三退”救人的机会，不管是走路、坐车，还是出外吃饭碰到的有缘人，我都会上去和他们讲真相劝三退。
Since my arrival in Australia in 2002, I have taken part in clarifying the truth, distributing materials, and making calls to China exposing the persecution. In 2004, the “Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party” was published, and thus I began to distribute the “Nine Commentaries”. In 2005, “Quitting the CCP” began. I started to call friends and family, persuading them to quit the Chinese Communist Party and its affiliated organisations. Later, I began making these calls to others also. Savouring every precious opportunity, I clarified the truth to predestined sentient beings upon going for a walk, catching the train, bus, or when dining out.
师父说：”他们敢于来，不就是在证实正法和把希望寄托于这次正法吗？所以我说，我们不能落下他们，我们就是要救度他们，想办法去救他们！尽管他们一时糊涂，或者是长期被这种中共邪党文化造成的观念的变异不能认识真理、不能够认识真相，我们也要想办法救他们。”（《二零零五年曼哈顿国际法会讲法》）
Master said: “Wasn’t their bravery in coming here a way of validating the Fa-rectification and placing their hope in the Fa-rectification? That’s why I have said that we cannot leave them behind, and that we must save them and think of ways to save them! Even though they may be confused at the moment, or they may have lost their capacity to recognize truth or reality, owing to their concepts being warped by the Party culture over time, we still have to find ways to save them. (“Teaching the Fa at the 2005 Manhattan International Fa Conference”)
那时，向大陆同胞讲真相做”三退”，还没有现成的电话号码提供，我就从网上找电话号码，一个号码打完，就把这个号码的尾数变个数字再打，直到尾数不能再变为止。开始打电话时，总觉的与对方有距离感，后来我就把”你们”怎样怎样，改成”咱们”怎样，说”咱可不能跟共产邪党绑在一起，邪党是邪恶的，咱们是善良的，善恶要分开，邪党遭恶报的时候，咱不受牵连”，跟人拉近距离就好讲话，退得也多了。
As no ready-made telephone numbers were provided at the time, I found phone numbers online and clarified the truth to Mainland Chinese. Then I would change the final digit of every number to reach even more people. Earlier on, upon making these calls, I felt a sense of distance separating me and the person on the line. Later, I began adopting the inclusive term “we”, rather than “you”, saying: “We shouldn’t tie ourselves together with the wicked CCP, they are evil, we are good. Good and evil should be separated, and when the wicked Party receives retribution, we won’t be implicated.” I found this means of communication much easier and more effective in regards to their quitting the CCP and drawing me closer to them.
我打真相电话一直坚持到现在，期间碰上很多感人的事情。有三次分别碰上党支部开会，每次一退就十几个人；有一次给5个男青年起名字三退，他们都要求和我同姓；有的一打电话就说”我已盼您好久了，”接着，给他破网软件，他高兴的答应给自己家人都做”三退”；还有一接电话就喊”法轮大法好，真善忍好”的。当然也接触过歇斯底里骂人的，但我不动心，来回几次去电话，心平气和的讲真相，当告诉他”我是为你好”时，那人前后判若两人。帮他做了”三退”他还一个劲的说”对不起，谢谢你。”
I have continued to making truth-clarifying calls to this very day, and along the way, I underwent many touching experiences. On three occasions, I actually managed to contact CCP members while they were having their branch meetings. This enabled me to get dozens to withdraw in one go. Once, after persuading five young men to withdraw from the CCP, they all chose my surname as their alias surname. In another incident, a man, after receiving my call, exclaimed: “I have been waiting for you for a long time.” I gave him the software for unblocking the Internet censorship; he agreed to persuade his family members to quit the CCP. Some upon answering would even say: “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness Compassion and Forbearance is good.” However, on another occasion, a man cursed me hysterically, but my heart remained unmoved. I simply persevered, called him several times more, and calmly told him: “I am doing this for your own good,” and he became a completely different person. He then withdrew from the CCP, and repeatedly said: “I’m sorry. Thank you.”
自从师父给我们讲过救人急、要急迫的去救人的法理后。我想光在家打电话还不够，师父急，我就得急，我要到旅游点面对面讲真相救人。开始是周末两天去景点，自从2009年先生从国内来到澳洲后，我就有条件每天去景点讲真相救人了。
Ever since Master mentioned the urgency of saving sentient beings, I decided phone calls alone wouldn’t suffice. If Master was feeling a sense of urgency, I should too. I decided I would travel to tourist sights and begin clarifying the truth face-to-face. At first, I only went on weekends, but after my husband’s arrival in Australia in 2009, I have managed to clarify the truth at tourist sites on a daily basis.
二、在旅游点讲真相，帮导游三退
旅游点真是救人的好地方，车来车往，每天都有几百人。旅游车一到我们这些义工都笑脸相迎，赶紧发资料，讲真相，劝三退，不敢浪费一点时间。游客待在这个景点的时间很短，又忙着照相，跑来跑去的。我们就要找机会跟他们一起跑。心里发着正念，嘴里讲着真相，眼睛看了这个看那个，恐怕落下一个有缘人。他们有的很快就能退，有的一家人一起退。有的退完还喊”法轮大法好”；有的竖起大拇指说”你们辛苦了。”真为这些得救的众生高兴，我越做越有劲。
Clarifying the truth at tourist sites & helping tourist guides quit the CCP.
With cars coming and going, and hundreds of people passing by, tourist sites are truly a great place to save sentient beings. As soon as the coach arrives, we volunteers greet the passengers, distribute materials, clarify the truth, and persuade them to withdraw from the Party. We dare not waste any time. It is common for the tourists to only stay for a short while before proceeding to take photos elsewhere, thus we look for opportunities to run with them. Sending forth righteous thoughts in our hearts, simultaneously clarifying the truth through our words, we meanwhile seek others to speak to, so no predestined beings will miss their opportunity. Some agree to quit in an instance, sometimes even entire families quit at once, and others shout: “Falun Dafa is good!” Others gesture with a thumbs up and say: “You have worked hard.” I am truly so happy for all these sentient beings who have been saved, and the more I do, the more energetic I become.
我们也跟导游讲真相，救他们，我给好几个导游都做了”三退”。这很重要，因为导游还影响着游客。做过三退的导游还能帮助其他人”三退”。有次我跟两名游客讲”三退”，他们不敢表态，因为导游站在他们旁边。这导游说，退了吧，我都退了，这两人就高兴的退了。
We also target tourists guides when clarifying the truth, and I have pursued several to withdraw from the CCP. Saving them is very important, as tourist guides have a great influence over their tourists. I found that those who had withdrawn would help others to. Once, as I was persuading two tourists who dared not make a comment, their tour guide beside them said: “Quit it. I have quit already,” and the two men then proceeded to happily withdraw from the CCP.
有一个导游，开始表现的很邪。下车他打着邪党的小旗，胸前挂着邪党的东西，还唱着邪党的歌。因他也是北京人，我就以老乡的关系跟他拉近距离讲真相，可是他不听，还不让游客拿资料。他对我油头滑脑的。我对他不急不躁，见面就打声招呼，讲一讲真相。
There was once this tour guide who seemed very wicked. After getting off the bus, he always had the evil Party’s flag in hand, the evil Party’s thing on his chest, and he often sang the evil Party’s song. As he was also from my home town of Beijing, I drew closer to him in clarifying the truth, but he wouldn’t listen and stopped tourists from taking our materials. He was very mischievous with me, yet I wasn’t anxious, and continued to clarify the truth to him on every occasion I saw him.
一天，突然听到有人喊：”给我一张报纸，”我找不到是谁在喊，他从车里探出脑袋来。是他！我赶紧跑过去给他几份资料，接着对他说”快退了吧，”他说”我没入过党”，我说”把团、队退了”，他点头说”行”。整整两年哪，这个生命终于得救了！真的为他高兴啊！现在他不说坏话，也不打邪党小旗了，我们跟游客讲真相，他也不管了。
One day, suddenly I heard someone shouting: “Give me a newspaper!” Unable to find him, I suddenly saw that tour guide stick his head out of the vehicle. It was him! I quickly ran to him, handed him the materials and said: “Quickly quit.” He replied: “I never joined the Party”. I responded: “Then quit from its youth league and young pioneers organisation,” and he nodded “OK”. It took two years, but now he had at last been saved! I was truly happy for him! Now he no longer says bad things or holds the evil Party’s flag. During our truth clarification to tourists, he now no longer interferes.
三、正念闯关，真修自己大法显神威
去年我在身体上的承受较大，我否定干扰，靠着大法的威力闯过来了。去年六月开始，先是好多天夜里睡不着觉，接下来就是困倦；白天夜里忍不住的困，回家就睁不开眼睛，吃着饭都快睡着了。我就加强学法，发正念。一段时间后，困劲过去了，咳嗽又来了，嗓子和胸口象裂开一样的痛。折腾了一个多月，更厉害的又来了。肚子和胃开始痛了，吃了就吐，夜里疼的无法睡觉。吃得越来越少，越来越没力气了。疼起来真是一点劲儿都没有了，透不过气也弯不了腰。真难受啊，觉的这关怎么过的那么苦啊。我轻声喊着”师父”，心里想着”紧紧抓着师父的手”。
Overcoming tribulations with righteous thoughts, Dafa shows Its mighty power when we truly cultivate ourselves
Last year, my body bore a heavy hardship, but with the power of Dafa, I denied the interference and overcame the tribulation. Since June last year, I found it very difficult to fall asleep at night, and this was followed by drowsiness that kept me feeling sleepy all day and night. As soon as I would arrive home, keeping my eyes open was a challenge, and I would almost fall asleep during dinner. I thus began to strengthen my Fa study and sending forth righteous thoughts. After some time, the drowsiness vanished, only to be replaced by coughing, and splitting throat and chest pains. After one month’s suffering from that, even worse things happened. My stomach began to ache, I couldn’t keep any food down, and the pain kept me awake all night. My appetite diminished along with my physical strength. As soon as the pain struck, I would lose all of my strength. I felt suffocated and found bending over difficult. The suffering was so intense, and I was finding this tribulation very difficult to overcome. I cried softly: “Master,” and the thought in my heart was “holding onto Master’s hands tightly”.
我知道，修炼人没有病，我身上带着无比强大的法轮，病是不敢靠近我的，这就是邪恶的干扰，我不能承认它。面对这些磨难，我白天黑夜抓紧时间学法，向内找自己还有哪些放不下的心，五套功法天天炼。心想哪怕我有执着也不准邪恶干扰，我有师父管着，我会在法中归正。
I knew that cultivators should have no illnesses. I thought to myself: “I have the powerful Falun within me; no diseases should dare approach me. This is evil interference, and I shouldn’t accept it.” In the face of these hardships, I studied the Fa day and night, and looked inward for any possible human attachments. During this time, I also kept performing the 5 sets of exercises on a daily basis. I thought, even if I had attachments, I shouldn’t accept any evil interference. I have my Master taking care of me. I will rectify myself with Dafa.
这样大约疼了三个星期，一天凌晨突然醒来，想到师父要求我们大法弟子在修炼中，要放下人的东西，才有神的东西。是啊，身体难受的过程不就是把人的东西洗掉的过程吗？从那天开始身体逐步恢复了。人瘦了，但精神很好。回看这三周，我每天只吃一点稀的芝麻糊，有时还吐掉。去景点要坐火车，下了火车，还要走半小时。路不算近，但每天走起来浑身是劲，两腿两脚都是劲儿。之前咳嗽时，一到家就说不出话，但上景点讲真相就能说出话来，也能劝三退。这是师父给的，是大法的神威在我身上的展现。
Three weeks later, upon waking up in the morning, I recalled that Master required Dafa disciples to let go of things of humans in order to have things of God. Wasn’t the process of my suffering a means of sifting these human things from me? From that day onward, my body gradually recovered. I lost weight, but nonetheless, I was in good spirits. Looking back at those three weeks, I had only eaten a thin sesame paste every day, and sometimes I had trouble even keeping that down. I needed to catch the train and then walk for half an hour to get to the tourist site, but I was full of energy; my legs and feet were never tired. When I started coughing, I was not able to talk at home, but I could talk at the tourist site when clarifying the truth and persuading people to quit from the CCP. I knew that it was Master giving me this strength; it was the mighty power of Dafa reflected in me.
这些关过去，下一关又来。不久，早晨为了赶上去景点的车，我下楼就跑，过马路时一下绊倒了，一个大跟头摔得脑袋都发蒙。心里想：师父，我没事。赶紧爬起来吧，还得赶车呢。可是爬不起来了，有两人赶紧过来扶我，我冲他俩摆手，不让他们扶我，我要自己起来。我慢慢爬起来，慢慢移动脚步，扶着墙慢慢走。看见胳膊肘流着血，我还是那句话：挡不住我救人，我跛着腿追上了下一趟火车，照样到景点劝三退。
Just as these tribulations passed, another arrived. One morning, I ran to the station to avoid being late. As I crossed the road, I tripped over and fell down hard on the road. My first thought was: “Master, I’m fine. I must get up quickly, I have a train to catch”, yet I couldn’t get up. Two people hurried over to help me, but I waved my hands saying no, as I wanted to get up by myself. I slowly got up, moved my feet, and managed to walk, leaning my body against the wall. I found my elbow bleeding, but still I had the same thought in mind: “You can’t stop me from saving people.” Finally, I caught up to the next train on my lame legs, and clarified the truth at the tourist site as usual.
回到家一看，右腿膝盖肿的很厉害，两条腿都紫了，左脚呈黑色了。第二天上山上景点就比较吃力了。那我也得去。我就想，邪恶干扰不了我救人，越不让我去我就非得去。身体上的磨难一关一关的全都连上了，可是凭着信师信法的正念，我闯过来了，并且一天都没耽误上景点讲真相。事实上，从2009年至今，去景点劝”三退”救人，我几乎没落下过一天。
Once at home, looking down at my legs, I found my right knee badly swollen, my left foot was black, and both legs were a purple complexion. And the following day, going to the tourist site was more difficult. But I had to go. I thought to myself: “Evil interference can’t stop me from saving people; the more it tries, the more I need to go.” Though I was undergoing physical tribulations one after another, righteous thoughts of believing in Master and Dafa allowed me to overcome it. I didn’t let it stop me clarifying the truth at the tourist site. In fact, from 2009 to this day, I have never missed a day of going to the tourist site, persuading people to quit the CCP.
修炼至今，我没有放松过学法。作为大法弟子，首先要多学法，学好法，用正念努力的做好三件事。每天我早晨炼好五套功法，上午去景点，下午打电话，走路听法，晚上静心看书学法，每天生活紧凑又充实。
Since starting my cultivation, I have always taken Fa study seriously. As a Dafa disciple, doing the three things well, studying the Fa deeply, and performing righteous thoughts is a must. My day consists of doing the five exercises after waking up, then going to the tourist site, making calls to China in the afternoon, listening to Master’s lectures on the way, and reading Dafa books at night time. Every day, my time is well-used and my life enriched.
我先生对我出去讲真相救人非常支持，在生活上照顾我，解决了我的后顾之忧。后来我们又搬到交通便利的地区居住，我去景点更加方便了。大法弟子的修炼路都是师父安排的，看到弟子有了想要多救众生的愿望，师父就给我机会，给我创造了非常有利的条件。
My husband has shown great support for my effort in clarifying the truth and saving people. He takes care of everything in our daily lives so I don’t have to worry about anything else. Later, we moved homes to a place with close-by transport. Now, going to the tourist site is much more convenient. Master truly arranges Dafa disciples’ cultivation path. As I had the wish of saving more sentient beings, Master provided the opportunity and created favourable conditions for me.
在景点，同修之间的配合很重要，我们都配合默契。如果有的人看了展板，举横幅的同修就会告诉其他同修去劝”三退”，往往比较容易退；如果有的人不退，就让另一个同修上去试试，有的真又退了。我们都互相通气，不落下有缘人，也不重复退。有时谁身体不舒服了，就互相打电话嘱咐，要多学法呀，赶快出来救人啊等等。总之，在同修的配合下才能更好更多的救人。
At the tourist site, smooth coordination among practitioners is very important. Therefore, we cooperate very well together. As soon as there are tourists reading the information on the display boards, practitioners who are holding the banners will tell other fellow practitioners to persuade them to quit the CCP. Oftentimes, it is relatively easier persuading them to quit. If one is not successful, another practitioner will have a try, and then the person will quit. We also share information so as to not miss any predestined sentient beings, and to avoid the occasion of a person being asked to quit twice. Sometimes when a practitioner is physically uncomfortable, we call that person and remind them to study the Fa more, and hurry out to save more people. In short, when we coordinate well, we are able to save more sentient beings.
In “Fa Teaching at the 2009 Greater New York International Fa Conference”, Master said: “Saving sentient beings is first and foremost. Just try to save more and more people.” I know that every day we have is in exchange for Master’s huge suffering. The Fa-rectification is reaching its end, and time is limited. I thus must seize the time to save more people, fulfil my prehistoric vows, and ultimately return home with Master.
谢谢师父！
谢谢同修！
Thank you Master!
Thank you fellow practitioners!
