(Minghui.org) I would like to share a few cultivation experiences that I have encountered involving physical problems. They may appear to be trivial health concerns at first glance, but in reality they afforded me valuable opportunities to improve in my cultivation of Falun Dafa. By recognizing human notions that were obstructing my development, I was able to eliminate attachments and elevate my cultivation level.
My Foot Problem
My heels, ankles, and the tops of my feet began to have a burning sensation and ache, rendering me unable to walk. Why? I hadn’t bumped or injured them in any way. It happened unexpectedly. Yet, nothing occurs in cultivation without a cause! I became alert and began to look inward. Where had I gone astray or become misaligned with the Fa?
This condition had manifested while I was at the home of practitioner Ling, and it was directly connected to her. Since Ling and I spent a great deal of time together, we had become quite uninhibited with one another. Over time, I grew increasingly critical of Ling’s temper and personality. I developed a mindset of looking down on her. A sentiment that would sometimes flare up openly and at other times leaving me feeling resentful internally. I had previously recognized that this attitude of looking down on her was wrong and needed to be corrected. However, my efforts to change had been halfhearted and inconsistent. Sometimes I would do better, and other times I would slip back into my old ways.
Today, Master Li, the founder of Falun Dafa, used this ailment to awaken me, as I had not been walking my path of cultivation right! Consequently, my feet, the very human instruments that carry me along this path, had developed a problem. I immediately acknowledged my attachment to Master and resolved to correct it. All the people of this world are his kin. How could I possibly look down on Master’s own family members? I promised to correct myself.
After this, my feet quickly returned to normal. Ling, too, witnessed this miraculous event.
The Wart on My Grandson’s Finger
My grandson came home for the holidays, and I noticed a wart growing on his finger. Whenever he had nothing else to do, he would pick at it. As one holiday season passed, another arrived, and my grandson visited me again. But by now, the wart had grown quite big. Furthermore, a tiny “baby wart” had sprouted on another finger on the same hand. Sometimes he would pick at them until his hand was covered in blood—a sight that pained me deeply.
I mentioned this to someone nearby, who offered a suggestion. A family member of theirs once had warts but was cured by applying an herbal medicine called Yadanzi. He advised me to buy some and let the child try it. I agreed. However, as I turned away and gave it further thought, I stopped myself, “Buy Yadanzi? No, that won’t do! The warts on the child’s hand are a manifestation of karma!” The child had, after all, studied Dafa with me. In that instant, I completely dismissed the idea.
The next day passed without incident. On the morning of the third day, the child exclaimed, “Grandma! The wart on my hand fell off!” To my astonishment, I saw that the skin on his finger was now perfectly smooth. Even the small wart on his other finger had vanished without a trace.
This seemingly trivial incident, the disappearance of a wart the size of a grain of rice, shook the atheistic notions still lingering in my mind to their very core. It was truly profound. It felt as though this wart had appeared solely to facilitate my elevation in cultivation. And once my understanding had risen to the occasion, it simply departed.
A Hard Lump on My Leg
I am not sure exactly when it started, perhaps about six months ago, but a hard lump, roughly the size of a wild apricot pit, appeared on the lower part of my shinbone, right over the bone itself. The skin turned red, and hurt whenever I touched it.
A thought occurred to me when I felt the lump a few days ago. While it manifested on my body as a lump, in another dimension, it existed as a spiritual entity—a living being. The fact that it appeared on my body, allowing me to see it and feel the pain it caused, must surely have a reason. Perhaps it came seeking help. Consequently, I communicated with it through my thoughts, “Perhaps in a past life, or even in this very life, I have wronged you or incurred a debt to you. If that is the case, I offer you my sincere apologies, I am truly sorry. I promise to cultivate diligently, and in the future, Dafa will surely bestow blessings upon you. Furthermore, there is a vital message I wish to convey to you. The entire cosmos has now reached the final stages of the Formation, Stasis, Degeneration, and Destruction cycle.
“My Master has come to impart the universal Dafa, ‘Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance’ in order to save all sentient beings from destruction. You, too, are a precious life within this universe, and you, too, deserve to be saved. I want to share this rare and momentous news with you, provided that you do not interfere with the Fa-rectification process, a proper and benevolent arrangement will be made for you. I earnestly hope that you will remember these words, ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’ Now, please leave my body. The new cosmos created by Master is incomparably beautiful, and I wish for you to have a wonderful future.”
Five days after this communication, I discovered that the red lump was gone. The skin there was dark and wrinkled, resembling dried-up hide, but the lump had vanished.
Although this was a minor incident, I felt deeply moved. The Fa principles taught by Master are truly profound yet clear. However, I had previously failed to enlighten to them, as I was obstructed by human notions. Through this experience, I felt as though another layer of my acquired notions had peeled away. At the same time, I rejoiced for that sentient being—it had been saved!
Articles in which cultivators share their understandings typically reflect an individual's perception at a point in time based on their cultivation state, and they are offered in the spirit of enabling mutual elevation.
