(Clearwisdom.net) I attended eight of Teacher's Fa lecture classes. Going from having no understanding of the Buddha Fa to comprehending it - from not understanding the principles of the Law to stepping onto the path of cultivation - it's been thirteen years. Whenever I look back on those encouraging days I feel incomparably blissful, wonderful and magnificent. Each time I remember those occasions, tears stream down my face.
First, I'd like to tell you about the class Teacher gave in Guan County, Shandong Province in November 1992. On November 11 Teacher came to Guan County to teach the Fa. At that time the people here were not familiar with Teacher or Falun Gong. In order to help people have a preliminary understanding of Falun Gong, and with the help and participation of the County Qigong Association leaders, Teacher presented a "qigong report" at the Guan County Movie Theater. Teacher also offered consultation and treated illnesses for three days at the Old Cadre Activity Center (hereafter referred to as the Center). At that time we witnessed many miracles. All kinds of diseases, including serious heart diseases, cancers, cerebral vessel diseases, hypertension, comas, and so on were healed by Teacher's touch.
It was a little chilly on the morning of November 14, 1992, and the north wind was blowing. People started arriving for treatment at the Center around 8 o'clock in a continuous stream. Among the people that day there was a middle-aged woman who worked at the Transportation Department. She had many health problems, and she'd taken a lot of time off work since 1988 to recuperate at home. She'd tried everything she could think of to treat her illnesses. She had repeatedly visited several hospitals, including the Liaocheng Specialty Hospital, the Shandong Provincially Established Hospital, the Beijing Harmonious Hospital, and the Beijing 301 Hospital, among others. She had also looked for witch doctors, sorcerers and "the fragrant table." Nothing had helped, and her condition was gradually getting worse and worse. Even standing up on her own was difficult. She was only 5' 3" (1.6m) tall, and she weighed only 71 pounds (32 kg). She was fighting for her life on a daily basis. She'd come that day to see what would happen.
Her turn came after 10 o'clock. Teacher looked at this woman from head to toe for a while at the west entrance of the building. Then He asked her to close her eyes and bend her upper body slightly. We saw Teacher use his right hand to pat her from head to toe, hard enough to make a clapping noise. In about two minutes we saw beads of sweat on the woman's face. She said she could see many exquisite scenes in other dimensions. She came to understand many things all of a sudden, and realized the magnificence of Teacher. She could not restrain her excitement. Her body felt hot, but her heart felt even hotter. She looked at Teacher, and she was so excited that she didn't know what to say.
After staying like that for a while, she told Teacher that it had been five or six years since she had ridden a bicycle. Teacher told her, "Get on the bike, and the faster you ride the better." She rode on the bicycle that her husband had brought, and circled around the big flower pond in the middle of the courtyard. She was so delighted that she seemed like a child. Then she rode the bike home.
There was also a man who was a staff member at the County Hospital who had fallen from a bridge and was in a coma. He'd been in bed for several years. After learning that Teacher was treating illnesses at the Center, his family drove him there. We saw Teacher patting him a little over his whole body and head, and then He grabbed him several times. This fellow could then sit up and move his arms and legs. His family was elated, and they knelt, crying immediately and kowtowing to Teacher. They stayed kneeling for a long time. The people standing by all said excitedly, "There truly is a living Buddha in the world!"
On the morning of November 16, 1992, I learned that Teacher was going to present a report at the Guan County Movie Theater. I'd had a backache and stayed at home for three days. After learning that Teacher could treat illnesses, I had a relative take me to the movie theater. I was sitting in the second row, and was very close to Teacher. Teacher gave a three-hour report, and treated illnesses twice. As soon as Teacher waved his hand, I felt the backache yanked out of my body. After listening to the three-hour report, my back didn't hurt anymore, and I was even able to walk home by myself. My family said, "This qigong teacher is truly a living deity. You should go and learn from him!" That afternoon I walked three miles by myself to the Center and registered. In the evening I attended Teacher's class. When the seven-day class ended, all of my illnesses, including hypertension, Meniere's syndrome, severe neurasthenia, and arthritis were all gone. There's been no sign of them for the past thirteen years.
The second class I attended was held in Linqing City in Shandong Province, in mid-May 1993. There were twelve students from Guan County who went there, and I was leading the group. Among us was Ms. Chen (alias), who hadn't participated in the Guan County class. Every organ in her body had problems, and her digestive system was the worst. For several years she'd only been able to drink gruel. Teacher gave lectures and taught the practice in the evening to accommodate the students who worked during the daytime. On the second morning, four of us from Guan County sat and waited in the lobby of the boarding house, hoping to meet Teacher when he came down from the second floor. Soon after we sat down, a practitioner from Beijing who stayed with Teacher called out to us, "Students from Guan County, please come upstairs. Teacher is calling for you!" We eagerly ran upstairs. Teacher was waiting for us at the door! When we saw Teacher we all cried bitterly, but we didn't know why. Teacher had us sit on the sofa and asked with concern about the practice situation in Guan County. Only then could we stop weeping. Then Teacher peeled an orange for each of us. At first I was embarrassed to take it, but Teacher said with a smile, "Eat, eat, I will peel one for each of you." The student from Beijing said, "It's given by Teacher and you don't want to take it?" I took it and ate it. After we had eaten the oranges, we immediately felt wonderful beyond description. Ms. Chen perspired all over her body, and felt totally relieved. After I reported the practice situation of Guan County to Teacher, He said, "Study the Fa more, and practice well."
In Linqing we were incomparably lucky to be able to eat with Teacher twice. The first time was on the second morning of Teacher's stay in Linqing. That morning, at around 6:30 a.m., while we were waiting for our breakfast in the boarding house, we happened to bump into Teacher and the Beijing students, who were leaving the boarding house to go to a park. As soon as we saw Teacher, we stuck to him. Teacher was walking in the front, and we were following close behind. When Teacher walked near a woman who was brandishing a sword and saying something that I couldn't hear clearly, Teacher stopped, but told us to keep walking. Later on Teacher told us, "There was a fox possessing her body. I have taken care of it." I realized that Teacher's purpose for going to the park was to clean up the field in that area.
After we left the park Teacher led us to a vendor stall that was selling breakfast. Teacher said, "We'll eat breakfast here together." Before we finished eating, Teacher had already paid the bill. At lunchtime of the third day, Teacher invited us again to eat vegetable dumplings.
The sixth day of the classes was on Sunday. All the Dafa students from Guan County were hoping that Teacher would come to our county again. Teacher satisfied our wish. After he arrived in Guan County on Sunday morning, Teacher didn't rest, but went directly to the big assembly hall, where over 500 students from Guan County were waiting! Teacher gave another lecture for the Dafa students of Guan County. When we had lunch with Teacher at the Guan County boarding house, Teacher said, "I lived one of my lifetimes in Guan County." At that time we couldn't understand it. Only by studying the Fa afterwards could we understand some of the implications. Teacher picked up and ate all the rice grains that fell onto the table, and we learned from it. Finally, when we finished eating and were about to leave, Teacher came to me at the entrance and told me, "Go pack up the leftovers, don't waste them." I immediately complied. From then on I no longer wasted food.
Whenever I think of those happy times tears stream down my face. They truly are tears of happiness and tears of shame. Today, regardless of the dirty tricks used by the evil to persecute and suppress Falun Gong, nothing can change the students' strong belief in Teacher and Dafa. The facts have proved that this group of Dafa practitioners can't be discouraged or broken. I can only do my best to diligently fulfill the three things required by Teacher, and practice righteously and successfully in the final stage. Let us treasure this eternally auspicious chance!
