(Clearwisdom.net) I started practicing Falun Dafa in January 1999. Teacher taught me to cultivate my heart, emphasize virtue, and always consider others first (from the book Zhuan Falun). Therefore, I always think of others first. In the past, I suffered from all kinds of diseases. Because of my severe heart condition, I was declared to be “impossible to cure.” However, I miraculously became very healthy after I started to practice Falun Gong. I now have a tolerant heart, a pure spirit, and a healthy physical body. Everyone who knows how my health has improved says, “Falun Dafa is truly great!” Even some strangers asked me, “Do you practice Falun Gong?” after seeing my selflessness and kind deeds.

For more than ten years, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been brutally persecuting Falun Gong. However, all the righteous deeds of true practitioners have made people realize that “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” and that the CCP is the true cult. The facts speaks for themselves. One righteous thought suppresses hundreds of evils. This is the best way to validate Dafa and save sentient beings. In other words, only when Dafa practitioners cultivate themselves well can they truly save the sentient beings they come into contact with. The following are some examples.

I work in a company cafeteria, and I am in charge of cooking and cleaning. The manager checked the finances only twice when I first started working there, and he never bothered to check after that. He said, “I have worked here for so many years. This is the first time I have come across such an honest, righteous, and kind person like you.” I said to the manager, “I am what I am today because I practice Falun Gong. Otherwise I would not be like this.” He smiled.

In 2002, my mother went to seek medical treatment when she was ill. Being absent-minded, the doctor gave her the wrong medicine, causing a medical emergency. My mother was severely overdosed and had difficulty speaking and eating. She passed away eventually. It also caused me pain and misery while I had to take care of her. Many people advised my family to sue the doctor. When our family was talking about what to do, I thought of Teacher’s words and said, “Let’s put an end to this. Regardless of what happened, the doctor didn't intentionally harm mother. Everyone makes mistakes. If we sue him, he would be arrested or have to pay a large amount of money. Wouldn't we then be bringing harm to his family?” My family listened to me and didn't sue the doctor. We didn't ask him to pay one penny.

In the winter of 2004, I was reported to the police while I was distributing materials clarifying the truth about Falun Dafa. As a result, I was arrested and held at a detention center. The head of the detention center was angry and attempted to sentence me to a forced labor camp. However, I didn't have any hatred and only felt sympathy for him because he was being used by the CCP. I said to him, “Officer, I hope you will come to know the truth and be safe in the future.” Surprisingly, he smiled and repeated my words, saying, “Wish me to be safe.” After that, his attitude changed. Twenty-two days later, I was released unconditionally. While I was being detained, there was a sixteen-year-old girl who was also detained there. She didn't have warm clothes and there were no more quilts available in the detention center. No one cared for her in her cell. I thought to myself, “I practice Falun Dafa. No one cares for her, but I have to. I need to validate Dafa with my kind deeds.” So I gave her my quilt. Other inmates commented, “She is nice. She is a true Falun Gong practitioner!” I heard their comments because I hadn't fallen asleep. I thought, “The first of the three things that Teacher requires us to do is to study the Fa. The purpose of studying the Fa is so that the Fa can guide us to cultivate well.” Therefore, no matter how busy I am, I always keep the Fa in my heart and never forget that I am a practitioner. In every situation, I always consider others first and think of the needs of others before myself.
