(Minghui.org) I was fortunate to be able to start practicing Dafa in 2017. Master purified my body and family environment, and Dafa washed away my dirty thoughts. It was Master who compassionately blessed me and enlightened me, so that I could walk happily on the path of cultivation to return to my origin.
When I hear about, see, or come into contact with Dafa, I often burst into tears, feeling that Master is by my side. It is Master who changed me, a self-centered person who had only cared about myself since I was a child, into a person who is considerate, is willing to do good things for others, and someone who would rather suffer losses than hurt others. I am extremely grateful to Master and Dafa.
I will now write down some short excerpts from recent years to report to Master and to share with fellow practitioners. I ask that practitioners compassionately correct my shortcomings.
Strengthening My Faith in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance
In 2017, under the guidance of my wife, I read Zhuan Falun and went to a nearby Fa-study site to listen to Master’s lectures. When I read Zhuan Falun, I didn’t have any distracting thoughts or any sense of laziness, and my whole mind focused on the book. I was deeply moved by Dafa’s principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. I took four days to finish reading the book. After reading Zhuan Falun, I felt as if I had a severe cold. I coughed up a lot of phlegm, excreted a lot of blue-black liquid in my stool, and I felt hot and cold, sore and painful. I understood that Master had begun to help me purify my body.
In less than two months of practicing, my physical condition had changed a lot: I quit smoking, and the abnormal sound in my chest disappeared. All my sports injuries miraculously disappeared.
After studying the Fa, I understood why practitioners believe in Falun Dafa so firmly amid the brutal persecution. Falun Dafa is righteous and is an extraordinary science. Every practitioner I have come into contact with has been sincere, kind, and tolerant. Learning the Fa and practicing the exercises are free of charge for everyone. Zhuan Falun removed my doubts and I understood many principles.
Dafa Changed My Temper and Personality
Before practicing, I had been selfish, grumpy, and easy to anger. I valued fame and fortune. After graduating from university, I worked in different industries, but I didn’t work anywhere for more than three years. I was intolerant of people and things at work that I didn’t like. I was grumpy and arrogant, and I tried to protect my personal interests. I hit walls everywhere and achieved nothing.
After I started cultivating, I regarded myself as a practitioner, conducted myself according to the standards of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, cultivated myself in every thought, word, and deed, and maintained a peaceful attitude. I let go of ego and became approachable. I measure everything against Dafa. After a long period of practice, my personality underwent a fundamental change. My temperament became gentle, and my mentality at work became calm. I can endure hardships, my willpower is super strong, and I put others first.
Dafa Resolved My Resentment
Dafa restored my kind nature, and my outlook on life and values changed. I understood that cultivators should be good people according to the standards of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance.
I found a service job at an auto parts factory close to my home. For more than eight years, I have been working in the dustiest and most physically demanding workshop. I let go of personal interests, and I am the only employee who has not asked the factory for a salary increase since the establishment of the factory. Sometimes the factory receives a lot of orders, and the factory has me do several times the usual workload, challenging the ceiling of my productivity.
In the early days, I resented the boss for squeezing everything out of the employees and I would complain. Through continuous Fa study, my mind assimilated to the Fa, and I often used the sentence “Let joy be found in hardship” from Master’s poem “Tempering the Will” (Hong Yin) to encourage myself. This helped me let go of my resentment, the fighting mentality, and attachments to personal interests that I’d held dearly. I became able to thank my boss for providing me with the opportunity to improve my character.
Repeatedly Practicing Forbearance in Everything
Before I started to practice Falun Dafa, I thought that “Forbearance” was to endure. After obtaining the Fa, I realized that perseverance is Forbearance, and enduring more hardships, suffering more losses, and not competing for profit is also Forbearance. I use the wisdom given by Dafa to resolve conflicts in my work and life.
For example, in February 2025, my village tried to plant trees. Without informing the owner of the homestead in advance, they broke ground behind our ancestral house and destroyed our ancestral hall house. They used part of the homestead of my house as a road, filling the soil slope and planting trees on the homestead. As a cultivator, I didn’t fight with the village cadres. Three days later, due to opposition from the villagers, the village committee canceled filling the soil slope and planting trees on my homestead, and the village cadres took the initiative to apologize to my family.
If we do things according to the standards of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, bad things will definitely become good things, and miraculous things will definitely appear!
Epilogue
I had struggled for most of my life in this troubled world before I finally started practicing Dafa and embarked on the path of cultivation to return to my life’s origin. Only by cultivating myself and doing the three things well can I become a true disciple of Master and fulfill my prehistoric vow. I once again thank Master for his guidance, enlightenment, and care along the way! Thank you, Master, for your compassionate salvation!
