(Clearwisdom.net) Cultivation requires following the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. Teacher's fashen gave me hints by many means to help me enlighten to this point.
My mother-in-law lived in the countryside. She had never lived with me. After I began practicing Falun Dafa, my husband brought her over. She then settled down and lived in our home. I was not satisfied with her country lifestyle, but I had to tolerate her because I was a practitioner. However, in my heart I was looking forward to seeing her off as soon as possible. The more I looked forward to her leaving our home, the more she wanted to stay. I had hoped she would only stay for a short visit and then return to her home, but things were just against me. One day she said, "I feel very comfortable living here, so I will not return home." One time while I was cooking, I thought, "Why is she still living here?" At this moment, hot oil splashed out of the pot all over me. I suddenly realized my fault: My xinxing was so poor and I was against the principles of Falun Dafa. I corrected myself immediately. Several days later, the same attachment came out again. While I was thinking about this in my heart and reaching to get a pot from the shelf, it fell off the shelf and banged the table. I knew I was wrong again.
One day about half a year later, while I was washing clothes, my mother-in-law came over to me and said, "I do not want to leave and plan to stay here permanently." I was unhappy and thought, "How come you don't want to leave?" As I was thinking this way, the hose in my hands seemed to be handled by someone else and spurted water straight at me. I awakened immediately. I thought, "Teacher, I am wrong. I shouldn't dislike her. She is my elder and my mother-in-law. In traditional Chinese culture, filial piety comes before all other virtues. How can I behave like an unfilial child? Moreover, maybe she came to obtain the Fa. I should take good care of her." From then on I took good care of her whole-heartedly. After a short period of time, her eldest son took her to his home.
I also witnessed the wonders of Falun Dafa in other areas. My brother-in-law was in the military and had been transferred to civilian work. He was in his seventies. Last year he had a prostate operation. I told him to read "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." before the operation. He agreed immediately. Usually in a prostate operation the patient bleeds a lot and needs to be infused with new blood, so the surgeon prepared 400 cc of blood for him. But he didn't use it because my brother-in-law lost only a little blood during the operation. Usually such an operation is very painful, so pain-killers are given to the patient. However he didn't use any pain-killers at all. When others asked him why he was not in pain, he just smiled. But in his heart he was quite certain that reading "Falun Dafa is good" brought him the wonder. Two days later, he saw much blood in the urine drainage bag. He was very scared and called me. I told him, "It's not a big deal. Teacher is protecting you. What are you afraid of? That's your bad blood, which needs to be eliminated." He understood immediately. The next day he was all right again and soon was released from the hospital. The effect of the operation was very good.
I have witnessed and heard of many stories about the wonders of reading "Falun Dafa is good". I told these stories to others. Last year I came across an old lady standing in front of her house. She had a walking stick but dared not walk. I went up and asked her, "What's wrong with your legs?" She said she had fallen and fractured her legs while going downstairs. She has steel plates in her legs. I asked her, "How old are you?" She said she was 82. I told her that she would be all right if she read "Falun Dafa is good". She said, "I do not believe it." I told her, "You should give it a try." She said she could not remember so many words. Then I read it with her three times. And then she could walk again! After she walked three steps, she threw the walking stick away and continued on. She immediately showed the gesture of Heshi (pressed her palms together to show respect) and said, "Thank you." I told her she should thank Teacher and Dafa. She said, "Thank you Teacher." Then she made the gesture again. As I walked away, she continued and said, "Thank you."
I also expressed my great thanks to compassionate Teacher. Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!
