(Clearwisdom.net) Master came to Kenli County, Shandong Province to
teach the Fa in February 1994. I was just checking in at the government-run
Kenli County Hotel when I overheard someone talking about Master traveling by
train in our direction. I remember it was around the Chinese New Year's Eve
then. Only now do I understand how Master put every second he had to good use,
took great trouble in stride and endured weariness to save sentient beings.
Master appeared at the restaurant's door in the hotel in the evening. We saw him
from a distance. We felt that we had not been deceived, because Master looked
exactly the same as his photo in the Health and Beauty magazine. The magazine
had published the movements of Falun Gong's first set of exercise with comments
from those who had benefited from practicing Falun Gong.
I remember that a farm woman was cured and no longer needed her traditional
Chinese medications after the first few lectures. She then brought all her
family members to Master's lectures. A young man suddenly fell to the ground
outside of the restaurant after eating. He was foaming at the mouth and was said
to be possessed. Master cleaned up his body right away.
A woman said that after years of marriage she hadn't been able to have a child.
To cure this problem she had learned several Qigong exercises. Once she paid 200
yuan for listening to a certain qigong lecture; but the fee for new students
for the ten-day Falun Gong lecture session only cost 50 yuan. Veteran students
paid half of that. It was so inexpensive. The woman became pregnant, and her
child will soon be a secondary school student.
A few veteran students had previously believed in Buddha. They said that Buddha
had told them that a high-level Master was teaching the Buddha Fa and that they
should hurry up to learn it. So they studied Falun Gong.
Master was temporarily staying at a room on the second floor because the hotel
staff needed to clean his room. Hearing about this, we squeezed ourselves into
the crowded room. I secretly observed Master from among the crowd. Master,
sitting on a sofa, was very compassionate. His hair was black and shiny, and his
skin pink and clear, like that of an infant's - this may sound disrespectful,
but I truly felt this way at that moment. A woman director of a public security
department in Northeast China sat facing Master. She said that she was scared
when she levitated when doing the fifth exercise. Master smiled and said that
this was a good thing.
A qigong master who had treated illnesses thanked Master for letting her know
the harm in treating illnesses. She was sobbing and could not finish what she
wanted to say.
A six or seven-year-old boy called Xiao Hou had attended Master's lectures in
Beijing and then followed Master to Kenli County. He looked like an adult when
he went to the restaurant to dine by himself with a bowl in his hand. The way he
looked after himself was very cute in the adults' eyes, and one could not help
but smile upon seeing him like that. I asked him in secret, "What did you see?"
He told me in a low voice, "These things shouldn't be told to others." Seeing
that my spirits weren't high (as I felt a bit world-weary and depressed) he
comforted me and said that I did the exercises movements very accurately.
I also saw that some veteran students couldn't eat green onions. Also, when
Master did the greater hand gestures, lots of cameras clicked to take pictures.
I remember Master saying that these pictures were taken in vain. We went
together to print the pictures, and saw that the ones we took with Master turned
out fine; only those of Master doing the greater hand gestures did not turn out.
It was truly magical.
At the conclusion of the lectures Master left. We didn't want Master to leave,
but Master's schedule was already filled through the second half of the year.
Except for the days he was lecturing, he was traveling from one place to
another.
Thinking back, these scenes still arise clearly before my mind. After I got out
of a labor camp I revisited the place where Master had taught the Fa. The energy
field was still very strong there, and Master's words again resounded in my
ears, "People here are a little numb." Today, with the persecution at the
Shengli Oil Field being so severe, I write this article in hopes that we will no
longer be so numb.
Apart from teaching Falun Gong during the ten days of staying in Kenli County,
Master gave a few free lectures at the power machine factory and in the Gudao
area. I heard later that Master had originally planned to teach Falun Gong at
Dongying City, but because the local qigong association interfered, Master gave
lectures in Kenli County instead under the administration of Dongying City.
