When you observe things, you should have the aptitude to understand the situation well; on the other hand, if you cannot apply your mind, then you cannot even witness. Why can't you do it? For example, suppose that a dog in the village is barking loudly. Then you should intentionally go near it and say out loud, "Since the dog is like this, its owner must be bad." Having heard this, the owner will come out. At that moment, you should try to look embarrassed and offer apology, "Oh, I have made a mistake. I have cursed at a dog owned by a gentleman... Although the dog is like that, the owner is surely a fine gentleman." If you say that, then even if the owner was going to curse at you, he will smile... This is how you become friends.

Now, you still cannot be successful in witnessing? How can it still go so wrong when you've got so many nets placed out there? If there are young people in the village, you should gather them and exercise with them. You should do it first thing in the morning. (demonstrating with gestures) Even if you start out doing it alone, since young people like to exercise, they will flock around you.

On top of a hill, on the holy ground, if you can prepare several square meters of space... That won't cost so much money. After you have gathered several people and exercise with much noise, if you beat on a gong loud enough to be heard everywhere in the village, they will rush toward you. You can even bring them to the church to exercise. First, you must like each other and people must like each other. Everyone must feel close. Isn't this so? On the sea coast, you can do it centering on the ocean. On a mountain you can do it centering on the mountain.

Then why can't you still do it? How can you be successful if you are lying down and daydreaming all day? You should run around busily twenty-four hours a day. Even a tiger travels far at night to look for a prey, yet how can a person who is trying to help God's work expect to do it by just sitting down waiting for people to come? Do you think that Satan will just send his children to you? It will never happen.

You must research how to become a friend with someone you have just met for the first time so that you can be closer to him than a life-long friend or anyone else. My witnessing method is that wonderful. (75-132)
