(Clearwisdom.net) I was fortunate to learn Falun Dafa in 2004. After I obtained the book
Zhuan Falun from my oldest sister, I spent two consecutive days reading it around the clock. Learning how Teacher said that we need to release all out attachments and become good people further convinced me that the state-controlled media had been lying about Falun Gong. So I decided that I would cultivate steadfastly no matter how the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) persecutes us.
Before I learned Dafa, I had all sorts of illnesses. I had neurasthenia, gastritis, enteritis, cholecystitis, sciatica, endometriosis, insomnia, and dizziness. I had seen numerous doctors but no one could help me and I was desperate.
When I learned Dafa and told my husband about the practice, he approved of it because it could help my health. The first time I read Zhuan Falun, I heard loud heavenly music filling the whole courtyard. I was caught off guard and wondered who was playing the music. But when I went out to look, I saw no one around. I suddenly realized that it was the manifestation of Buddha law and it meant that Teacher had brought salvation to my family.
From then on I trusted Teacher and Dafa steadfastly. I did the exercises and Fa study diligently. I repeatedly read Zhuan Falun, and the more I read it, the more I liked to read it. I asked my children to recite "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good," and "Greetings to Teacher." My children said: "Mom, the Fa that Teacher taught us must be good, otherwise so many people wouldn't be practicing it."
Since I began to cultivate, my health improved a great deal. All my illnesses went away. It has been six years since I have had to take any medicine. I went through tribulations with my righteous thoughts. I know that Teacher helped rid me of my karma. I always keep in mind Teacher's words: "When disciples have ample righteous thoughts, Master has the power to turn back the tide" Hongyin II, "The Master-Disciple Bond")
Later I learned how to send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate all the rotten demons. The articles on the Clearwisdom website inspired me greatly and I learned that I needed to do the three things well. I began telling people the truth about the persecution. Most people I spoke to quit the CCP and its associated organizations. Many sentient beings were saved and in our area many people have become practitioners. We shared cultivation experiences and elevated together and got many people to quit the CCP. I know that all of this was achieved with the help of Teacher. He inspired and cared for us all.
I feel that Teacher was also taking care of practitioners' family members. My husband said: "You should go to the United States to see your Teacher." I said: "Definitely." He is very supportive of my work in Dafa. When the evil interfered with my financial situation, I was not bothered. Through sending forth righteous thoughts, the evil dared not persecute us any more. My husband's attachment of fearing the economic persecution disappeared. My daughter was admitted to a very good university. We opened a small restaurant and business got better and better. I knew that Teacher was helping me. My restaurant has been a good place for me to tell people the facts and save sentient beings. Principals, directors, managers and many other people who had predestined relationships all liked to listen to me talk about Dafa.
One night, I dreamed that my husband said to me: "We have too many guests in our home. I need to find them a new room." I went over and saw that there were five immaculate rooms. When I awoke, I saw with my celestial eyes a golden flash going from my courtyard to the gate that pushed all the evil out all the way. On the gate there was a silver net that prevented all bad things from coming in.
I got up in a hurry and swept the courtyard. Then Teacher's fashen came to my living room and sat. I put down the broom and rushed inside. I knelt in front of the benevolent Teacher and cried out loud: "Teacher. I am kowtowing to you." I cried harder than I had in years. I finally met with Teacher! Thank you, Teacher! Thank you for saving me! I will cultivate steadfastly. My will is as solid as steel."
Let's review Teacher's article in "Fa-Lecture During the 2003 Lantern Festival at the U.S. West Fa Conference":
"Do well what you should do. This predestined opportunity is hard to come by. Cherish all of this, there won't be a next time. Developing any attachment will ruin you halfway along! Don't entertain or get attached to any human thoughts, and just do what a Dafa disciple should do. Everything that's wonderful, that's the most magnificent, and that's the most glorious awaits you!"
