(Clearwisdom.net) I began to practice Falun Gong in 1998 and I'd like to share with you about my experience:
1. My sister-in-law's quick recovery from a serious car accident
One Friday evening in April 1999, it was raining. On her way to work, my sister-in-law was hit by a car and then fell to the ground. Her colleague carried her on his back to a clinic. She was in a coma, and blood was coming out of her eyes, noses, ears and mouth, so her family members took her to Haijun Hospital. On Saturday, my father-in-law came to my home and told me about it. He said that she was in the emergency room and her life was in danger. He told me that she recently had a dream. In her dream, a man said to her that she killed his dog. My sister-in-law said no, she didn't, then they got into an argument. She suddenly remembered that she was a practitioner, and thought, 'why should she get in an argument with an ordinary person?' As soon as she had that thought, she saw a big Falun spinning, then she laughed and woke up from her dream.
Hearing this, I came to understand that the creditors came to look for the payment and my sister-in-law was paying that debt. It was nothing like a normal case of someone getting hit by a car and ending up in a hospital. I took a copy of Zhuan Falun and went to the hospital to see her. When I got there, I saw she was on oxygen, and getting injections; her eyes were closed, and she had bruises on her face and congestion. Hearing me call her, she took much effort to open her eyes. She could not talk, nod or shake her head; all she could do was blink her eyes. Th doctor said that they had diagnosed her with a fractured skull and said that they'd give her oxygen treatment. For the time being, her life was still in danger, her situation was critical. At the hospital, I read Chapter Three in Zhuan Falun to her.
First thing in the morning, my husband came to the hospital to talk to his sister about the real reason she got into this car accident from the Fa perspective, and what to do about it. We asked her to blink her eyes if she agreed, and her main consciousness was still clear. The outcome of our conversation was that my sister-in-law wanted to be discharged from the hospital.
On Monday morning, I helped my sister-in-law with being discharged from the hospital and took her to my home. We started playing the recording of Teacher's Fa-lectures to her, and we played it for the whole day. We were sharing with her and asked her to think about nothing but the Fa. On Tuesday, we had been playing Teacher's Fa-lecturing recording for the whole day again, and she managed to stand up for a few minutes and do the whole first exercise. On Wednesday, she continued to listen to the Fa and did the first, third and fourth exercises. She also had half a bowl of rice porridge, and began to talk. On Thursday, she continued to listen to the Fa and was able to finish the four sets of exercises and had half a bowl of rice. On Friday, she continued to listen to the Fa and finished four sets of exercises, she also finished a big bowl of rice. On Saturday she went with us to a park to spread the Fa, and she was the one who drove the motor vehicle to take my child and myself. At the park, she talked about the miraculous changes that happened to her after she had the accident. Hearing this, many people came to learn Falun Gong from us, and they also asked us for Dafa books. On Sunday, she went with some retired practitioners to spread the Fa in the countryside, where they stayed for about a week.
Her personal account made many people feel how miraculous and extraordinary Dafa is, so that many people who had a predestined relationship with Dafa began to learn Falun Gong. People who were at my home studying the Fa also witnessed the process of my sister-in-law regaining her life. They felt very fortunate for having obtained the Fa, and they often went out to spread the Fa and tell others about the beauty of Dafa. Because of her miraculous experience, people from my sister-in-law's neighborhood began to practice Falun Gong as well.
2. People who assisted practitioners were rewarded
The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) has been persecuting us good people who live by the principals of Truth-Compassion-Forbearance" since July 1999. I was put on trial and a fellow practitioner gave us a collection of their hand-transcribed new articles by Teacher. When I got back to my cell, I took it out and read it right away. Soon my actions were found out by inmates and they reported me to guards. Guards quickly came to my cell hastily and told me, “You stand right here, everyone else, go outside.” They also had the inmate in charge of the cell search both my and another practitioner's bag. I quietly told that practitioner that the book was in my bag. While I was standing there, I requested to Teacher not to let them find my book. As I had been held at the detention center for 20 months, it took quite an effort for me to obtain Teacher's Fa, and I hadn't had much chance to read it; I should never let them find it. At that time, I didn't know what sending forth righteous thoughts was, I just kept beseeching Teacher for help time and time again. I watched the person in charge of the cell take out my things one after another, and he didn't find anything even though he had reached the bottom of my bag. I truly appreciated Teacher deep inside.
What had happened was, in front of everyone, the fellow practitioner passed the book to an inmate from the same cell. This person had learned to recite a lot of Fa from us. She understood that our practitioners were following Truth-Compassion-Forbearance and were good people, and that the "self-immolation" incident was staged. Under such a harsh environment, she stepped out and kept the book for us, so that Teacher's Fa did not end up in the wrong hands. Because of her righteous actions, she was rewarded right away. The next day, a guard announced that she was released unconditionally. On top of that, she received a sum of money as compensation from the government. This compensation was for, as stipulated in law, people who were wrongly arrested and held. If you think about it, when does the evil Party ever admit their mistakes to ordinary citizens? There have been many cases where people were sentenced wrongly. Therefore, the evil Party's law counts for nothing. Everything exists for Dafa, practitioners' cultivation and saving sentient beings. People from the same cell all knew that she had received her reward as a result of helping Dafa practitioners and supporting Falun Gong. Some said that they'd practice Falun Gong after they were released.
3. Getting out of a perilous situation
One night about four years ago, as soon as I stopped my bicycle, I was plowed down by a motorcycle. I lost consciousness for a while. When I woke up and saw myself lying on the ground, I was surrounded by many people. I didn't know how long I had been unconscious.
At that time, I had a very strong wish, “I want to stand up.” I said to myself, “I am a Falun Gong practitioner, I will be fine, I must get up.” However, I had a headache, and my legs and shoulders hurt. I couldn't get up no matter how hard I tried. After a short while, my mind became clear, and I came to understand that evil forces had manipulated people to commit this bad deed. I said to the old forces that “Even though I have omissions, I will not let you take advantage of and persecute me. Don't mess with me! I am a Dafa disciple, here to assist the Teacher in validating the Fa, I am made of 'Truth-Compassion-Forbearance.' Whether it is a headache, leg ache, or shoulder pain, none of them belong to me.” I told myself: "I must stand up!" With this one thought, I was able to stand up. I remembered that I shook a little bit and then I was able to stand up steadily.
I told the people surrounding me, “I am telling you, I couldn't get up at all a moment ago, but when I thought to myself: 'I practice Falun Gong, and I must stand up' I was able to stand up.” The place where I had the accident was close to the police station, but none of the people who were surrounding me had any doubt about what I said, nor did anyone decide to leave because I was a Falun Gong practitioner.
I said to the young man who had run into me: “You should be careful when you go to ride your motorcycle again, please slow down. Today you hit me. I wouldn't ask you to take me to the hospital, but I ask you to remember the words "Truth-Compassion-Forbearance." The young man kept saying “Thank you aunty, thank you aunty.” Those bystanders didn't want me to let him go. Some said to me: "What if you incur sequela later on?" Some others said: "At least you should get his phone number."
I was very calm. Because I believe in Teacher and Dafa, I was not concerned about having any sequela at all. I said to those bystanders: “He is a young man, he didn't hit me on purpose.” Someone from the crowd said: “You Falun Gong practitioners are truly kind.” I took the opportunity to clarify the truth to them about the beauty of Dafa, and told them that whenever they run into any calamity, by reciting those three words in their hearts, they'd get out of the trouble and be safe. A lot of people nodded to show their agreement. When I left the place where I had the accident, the bulge on my head had become much smaller. By the time I went to bed, it was completely gone, and I only felt a little bit of pain when I touched my head there.
The next morning, I felt some pain on my abdomen. While having a look, I saw some bruises on the skin. Then I realized how I was hit by the motorcycle: The front of it must have hit my belly, and I was hit so hard that I ended up flying in the air and landed on the back of my head, and as a result, I lost consciousness. Without Teacher's protection, I would have lost my life. Also, there are many organs in the abdomen. With such a strong force, how could I only feel pain on the surface? In addition, the bulge on the back of my head disappeared in a few hours. What if it had broken and triggered something else? I told everyone whom I ran into about this accident, to show them the importance of remembering those three words so they can make it through any calamity later on.
On the path of assisting Teacher to rectify the Fa, we should use our divine thoughts as opposed to human thoughts, and there will be more miraculous things happening. This is my personal experience and sharing, please kindly point out anything inappropriate.
