(Clearwisdom.net) I am from Northeastern China and work in household management. The family that I work for all practice Falun Gong. After the persecution started on July 20, 1999, the male head of the household gave up the practice out of fear. The entire family, including his wife, tried to persuade him to continue the practice, but without success. Several years later, he was diagnosed with cerebral thrombosis. My job was to look after his well-being and to read a lecture from Zhuan Falun to him every day.
When I first started the job, I could feel the hostess's kindness. During our meeting, she openly and sincerely described her family's situation and asked me to consider the position seriously before making a final decision. At that time, I truthfully informed her that it was out of necessity that I came to work. A family's belief had nothing to do with the job's duties. My work responsibility is to look after the patient.
Through working with this family, I had two personal experiences that provide profound testimony to the supernormal nature of Falun Dafa. These experiences also changed my outlook on life. My previously indifferent, numb attitude and mentality toward Falun Gong changed.
The first incident happened this past summer. Around noon one day, I was preparing lunch. When I realized that I had run out of soy sauce, I hurriedly went downstairs to purchase more. In my rush, I missed a step, stumbled, fell and rolled to the bottom of the staircase. I sprained my ankle. I could see the injury beginning to swell up. While I was sitting on the floor, I tried to stand but to no avail ¡V I couldn't place my foot on the floor because of the excruciating pain from the sprained ankle. There was also no one around to help me. I sat on the floor for more than ten minutes. I suddenly recalled what the lady of the house once said to me. She said, "During times of danger while traveling outside, remember to recite 'Falun Dafa is good' and the incantation can dispel disaster."
Initially, I did not believe this at all. However, my situation couldn't afford me much time to think, and quite naturally I yelled out, "Falun Dafa is good! Let me stand up, it's not painful, it's not painful!" Repeatedly, I chanted the phrase and tried again to stand up. The result was amazing. Not only was I able to stand up, move around and take a step, but I did not feel any pain. I found the incident amazing and quite mysterious. Since I am a very introverted person, I kept the story to myself; I did not mention this amazing incident to anyone.
A few days later, another unexpected mishap occurred. While I was returning home from work on the bus, I prepared to get off by standing near the door when the bus was nearing the stop for my house. Before the bus came to a complete stop, the door suddenly swung open and, caught off guard, I was thrown outside the vehicle. I fell heavily to the ground. That same ankle was sprained once again. The pain was so intense that I nearly fainted. Unable to get up, I sat on the ground for some time. Two bus employees saw the mishap and rushed from the bus to help me. They asked where I was injured. I pointed to my ankle. At the same time, I silently started to recite "Falun Dafa is good! Falun Dafa is good!" The two bus drivers helped me to stand. I tried to take a step and the pain wasn't there, so I assured them that there was nothing wrong. I urged them to return to the bus since there were other passengers to take care of. "Are you sure you are really all right?" they inquired again. "Yes," I responded, "Please go ahead."
The next morning when I arrived at work, I narrated this to the lady of the house. Later I also told all my friends and relatives about this incident. Quite a few people started to practice Falun Gong because of this.
Lies and deceit can no longer hide the truth. These incidents have awakened me to the truth that after seven years of relentless persecution by the CCP, people's hearts have remained unmoved. At the same time, Falun Gong practitioners have maintained their unshakable faith in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, their determination, their persistence in clarifying the truth, their firm, rock-solid belief and their unshakable faith in Dafa under the cruelest, most inhuman persecution in history. Knowing this often causes tears to stream down my face. I realized how fortunate and blessed I am. I express my heartfelt gratitude to Master Li, as well as to Falun Dafa, and the family and lady of the house where I was employed. I am very happy that I found Dafa and became a new Falun Gong practitioner!
