(Minghui.org) I began practicing Falun Dafa in 2019 and would like to share some of my cultivation experiences with you. I always feel Master is beside me, and is guiding me.
I Begin Practicing
I had many illnesses, including herniated disks and other problems with my spine. In the winter of 2018, my back hurt so much that I was unable to move. I even thought about death. The diagnosis was a displaced vertebra that was pressing on a nerve. I underwent many treatments, but nothing helped.
My sister practices Falun Dafa and gave me some information about it. I was quite moved after I read it. I talked to my daughter and son-in-law about reading Zhuan Falun. I told my daughter, “Look at the state I’m in, I want to give it a try.” She agreed.
My sister invited me to stay with her and we studied the Fa every day. My condition improved and I was soon able to stand.
My sister taught me the exercises, and when I did them I felt a Falun spinning like a small fan in my belly blowing warm air to my back and legs. The warmth engulfed my entire body. My body felt light and comfortable. All my aches and pains disappeared.
Two weeks later, I returned home. Seeing the change in me my daughter was happy and asked, “Mom, you got better?”
I laughed and cried at the same time and said, “Yes, I’m fine now, Master Li Hongzhi has helped me become healthy again.”
My daughter said, “Falun Dafa is amazing, you recovered just by reading a book and doing exercises! Falun Dafa is indeed good, but the TV says it’s bad.”
I said, “The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has done a lot of evil deeds, especially when it tells Chinese people not to believe in God. The CCP is surely here to destroy us.”
My son-in-law also witnessed the power of Dafa and Master’s great compassion. He is supportive of my cultivation. He and my daughter quit the CCP organizations they joined. I want to thank Master for helping me endure the pain that I was supposed to suffer. No words can describe how grateful I am. I can only show my appreciation by strictly adhering to the standards of a cultivator, and cultivating diligently.
Understanding Our Mission
I moved to the city where my daughter lives. It was a new environment and I did not have any friends there. I studied the Fa every day, did the exercises and tried to be a good person. I did not know how to cultivate or how to tell people about the goodness of Falun Dafa. Eventually, Master guided me to a local practitioner, who helped me acquire an entire collection of Master’s lectures. I read these precious books every day.
Through Fa study, I came to understand that a practitioner’s mission is to help Master save people.
Master said,
“Dafa disciples, don’t forsake the magnificent responsibility that has been bestowed upon you in Fa-rectification, and even less should you disappoint those beings, as you are now their only hope for entering the future. For this reason, all Dafa disciples, students both new and veteran, should get to work and begin comprehensively clarifying the truth.” (“Let Go of Human Attachments and Save the World’s People,” The Essentials of Diligent Progress III)
Someone reported my sister to the police when she was talking to a passerby about Falun Dafa. She was arrested, sent to a brainwashing center and sentenced to prison. I was worried that I’d also be reported. Then I thought about how Master told us to let go of human attachments and help him save people. I knew I must listen to his words.
I gathered up my courage and headed out with a bag of Falun Dafa pamphlets. I paused at a bus stop where a high school student was waiting. I politely greeted him and told him about Falun Dafa.
He said, “Don’t you know Falun Dafa, isn’t allowed in China? Our textbook teaches us that it’s bad.”
I said, “The CCP slanders Falun Dafa. This practice teaches people to be good by following the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. The CCP is committing unbelievable evil deeds: taking organs from live practitioners. Do you think heaven will allow the CCP to continue to exist? We cannot let ourselves be part of this evil organization. Only by distancing ourselves from it can we be safe. I’m telling you this because I wish you and your family happiness and peace.”
The student listened with a serious expression and said, “Thank you. I will quit the Young Pioneers!” We waved goodbye to each other. I thanked Master in my heart for saving this precious life. Since that day, I go out every day to talk to people about Dafa. No matter who I meet, I will let them know the truth.
I recently noticed I was slacking off in my cultivation. My head was not clear when I read the Fa and sent forth righteous thoughts. Discovering one’s cultivation issues requires searching within. I found that I had strong sentimentality toward my children. Their father passed away when they were young, and as their mother, I believed I ought to provide more to make up for the father’s love they missed.
No matter how tired I am, I do not complain. I wasted quite a bit of time cooking a variety of dishes for them. Even though I was doing the three things, I did them like a job. Compassionate Master pointed this out to me many times. On one occasion, I smelled unpleasant odors in my home. I finally realized that what smelled good in this dimension actually smelled bad in another. My mind was occupied with how to make dishes smell and taste good, and I cooked whatever my children liked to eat. Isn’t this an attachment to food?
I will be a more diligent practitioner, and do the three things well, help Master save more people and live up to his expectations.
