(Minghui.org) I began practicing Falun Dafa in 1998, and my chronic gastritis disappeared. The deformed index finger on my right hand became normal. I treated everyone with sincerity and kindness, and our small family business flourished.
After the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) launched the persecution of Falun Dafa in July 1999, I was afraid and stopped contacting other practitioners. I practiced secretly at home. Eventually, my xinxing dropped to the level of everyday people or even lower. As a result, my stomach problem flared up again and the pain lasted for two months. Everything seemed to go wrong. My husband injured his finger, he was in a car accident, and our family business gradually declined.
I told my husband, “I must resume cultivating and study the Fa again. Please don’t try to stop me.” He didn’t say anything.
I went to see another practitioner and told her that I wanted to study the Fa again. She was pleased and said that many practitioners returned to cultivation. Since then, I have been walking steadily on the cultivation path with fellow practitioners. Once I was back on track, our family business improved, and my stomach pain went away.
Telling People About Falun Dafa
I often sell goods in various markets. I went to a market early and set up my goods when a car crashed into my stall and damaged about 200 yuan worth of goods. The driver got out of the car and started complaining loudly, “Why did you place your goods in the middle of the road?”
I calmly said, “Look again, my goods are laid out neatly within the defined limits.”
His wife got out of the car and told him, “You damaged so many of her goods. How can you talk to her like that? Let’s see how much we need to pay her to compensate.”
I asked the wife to come to the back of the stall with me and told her, “I’m a Falun Dafa practitioner. Our Master always tells us to be good people and not take advantage of others. Don’t worry about what happened today. Also, let me tell you something good and important.” My words got her attention.
“A person will be safe if they quit the CCP organizations.” I explained why, “When people quit the CCP organizations they joined, they negate the oath they made to give their lives to the Party and they will be protected by the divine.” She quietly listened and agreed. I told her to call her husband over, and I repeated what I told his wife. He also listened quietly.
I said, “If I hadn’t practiced Dafa, I would have treated today’s incident very differently. I could have asked for 300 yuan for the losses. But I’m a Dafa practitioner. I won’t ask you to pay for the damage. I only hope that you quit the CCP organizations and remember to be good people.” They were happy to hear what I said, and they both quit the CCP organizations they joined.
I often went to the markets early. Before setting up my stall, I distributed truth-clarification fliers to nearby houses and handed them out to people I met. I also encouraged people to quit the CCP organizations. By the time I returned to the market, other vendors had already set up their stalls and were selling goods.
Customers began lining up even before I unloaded my goods. The other vendors often said, “You’re so lucky. Why is your business so good?” I told them, “If you sincerely recite ‘Falun Dafa is good,’ you’ll have good fortune too.” One of them treasured the pamphlet I gave him and read it with keen interest. He said he would show it to his family. He received blessings, and his business boomed.
Treating Everyone With Kindness
I met a woman who pretended to be a victim so she could extort money from people. She sat on one of the small folding chairs I was selling, fell to the ground. She complained that the stool was unstable and made her fall. She then asked how much it cost. I told her 45 yuan (it cost me 35 yuan).
“That’s too expensive. I will pay 20 yuan for it,” she said.
I thought, I’m a Dafa practitioner and I shouldn’t argue with her over such a small thing. I agreed to sell it to her for 20 yuan. She paid me and left.
I ran into the same woman at another market. She said that her back still hurt from falling off the stool and her son worked for the police. I didn’t argue with her and offered to give her some money as compensation, but she refused to take it.
When I went to other markets she came to my stall and complained about her back pain. I looked within and found that I still had an attachment to fear because her son worked for the police.
The last time I met her, she asked me for 100 yuan. I realized that I must let go of my fear, and told her, “I know your son works for the police, but I’m not afraid of you. I will give you 200 yuan so that you can get yourself some medication for your back.” As she took the money, I also told her to recite, “Falun Dafa is good” so that her back would quickly get better.
“Is that true?” She asked me. “Yes, just try it,” I said kindly. The old lady has not bothered me since then.
