(Minghui.org) I’m a veteran Falun Dafa practitioner. However, I have to admit that my cultivation state is sometimes good and sometimes bad. For a long time, my attachments to fear and reputation were not eliminated, and I’ve been stumbling along the cultivation path. But, Master never gave up on me. I was a disappointing disciple, yet Master kept giving me opportunities to eliminate different kinds of attachments.

Recently, my husband was not feeling well. After he had a checkup, he was diagnosed with kidney stones by two hospitals. The condition was very serious. As minimally invasive procedures did not work, surgery was required. Surgery was then scheduled for August 10.

However, police from the local police station came to my home to harass us. In the past, police often came to harass us, and each time after they were gone, my husband either fought with me and made a scene, or ignored me and sulked by himself. When that happened, I resented him for not helping me and for controlling me and restricting my freedom. I did not look inward. 

This time, I realized that my husband was depressed and his health and frame of mind had reached the limit. I knew that this was Master using the harassment incident to have me relinquish fear and sentimentality for family members, as well as to cultivate compassion. 

I calmed down to study the Fa more and send forth righteous thoughts. I suddenly realized that my starting point was wrong. I seemed to be sending forth righteous thoughts so I could evade persecution, and then kept being taken advantage of by the old forces. I realized that only after I rectified my foundation could I rectify the people around me. In the past, my thoughts and actions were all from a selfish standpoint. In the future, Dafa practitioners will all obtain great fruition statuses, but I am so selfish – how could I? It’s a shame when I think about it now. When I sent forth righteous thoughts again, I felt that even my capacity became bigger. 

When I got home that night, my husband told me about the police harassment during the day. He said, “I didn’t let them into our home. We didn’t break the law. What they did was trespassing onto private property, and they broke the law. I told them I would call the police if they didn’t leave. They ended up leaving after making a scene for a while.” My husband also told me to be careful. 

I said to him right away, “You did the right thing. You upheld justice. You even prevented the police from creating karma for themselves. It is a heavenly principle that good will be rewarded and evil meets with retribution.”

The next morning, my husband went to the hospital for pre-surgery preparation and had another physical exam. The results showed that the kidney stones were gone and surgery was no longer needed. I said to him that he’d been blessed for defending justice. My husband got so happy that he acted like a child. He also witnessed the power of Dafa. I thank Master for looking after me!

The following morning, when I got downstairs on my way to work, a neighbor stopped me and told me, “The police were looking for you. They said you had a case on file. It’s all pretty disturbing.” In the past, I did not like to clarify the truth to people I knew well, because I was afraid that they would talk about me behind my back. I knew that this was an opportunity arranged by Master to save sentient beings and to eliminate my attachment to reputation. I immediately put down my attachment and talked to her about Falun Dafa and the extent of the persecution. She understood the whole story and was supportive of my actions. 

We chatted for a while until I realized that I had to go to work. I said to her that we would continue our conversation another time because I had to go to work. I ended up getting to work just on time. In fact, I am always able to make it to work on time after I go out to clarify the truth and have never been late. I know this is all due to Master’s arrangement.

I again thank Master for his compassion for his practitioner!
