(Minghui.org) As a doctor, I do not feel good when I see the looks of pain on the faces of my patients afflicted with illnesses. However, I understand from the Fa principles that everyone's illness is due to karma. I am not only a doctor, I am also a Dafa disciple. Since they looked for me, not only do I have to try to cure their illnesses on the surface, but most importantly, I also have to tell them the truth about Dafa and help save them. In my career as a doctor for more than a decade, I have encountered different kinds of patients and saved many predestined people.
A rural woman of about 50 developed an unusual ulcer-like condition on her legs and feet. She would have an outbreak in the summer, with blisters that itched and hurt. This occurred every year, and it tended to fester for six months before she recovered. It never got any better, even after spending a lot of money on cures over the course of 20 years. As I treated her condition, I clarified the truth to her. She was very interested when she heard about Falun Gong. She quit the Young Pioneers readily after understanding the injustices suffered by Dafa and Dafa disciples in China. She also gladly took a truth-clarification periodical that I gave her. This occurred a couple of months ago. Recently she came to my outpatient office. Smiling, she said, “My ulcers are cured!” She told me that, after she went home, she got into bed at night and was about to go to sleep. Suddenly, her body started to float up, and it frightened her. When she became frightened, she was unable to float anymore. After that, the ulcers on her legs got better with each passing day, and now it is completely cured. I told her that she has received blessings because she believes in Dafa. She was pleased and said, “Thank you!” repeatedly. I saw the joy of an awakened sentient being after being saved.
There have been good results when I clarified the truth on a one-to-one basis when treating female patients with gynecological problems. When I spoke about the common knowledge of contraceptives, I would mention that one should not have an abortion arbitrarily. I would mention that, as a doctor, I could not do an abortion arbitrarily. I would talk with them about many issues, from why one should not kill to the Tiananmen “self-immolation” hoax. I would also speak to them about how Heaven is going to eliminate the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and ask them to quit the CCP to be safe. Most of my patients were able to understand, and there have been only a handful that refused to quit. Not only this, those sentient beings who have been saved asked their friends and family to come to me for treatment. I know that they were not only here for treatment but also to hear the truth.
A patient came to me for treatment, and I performed a minor operation on her. She was very satisfied that the fees were not high and that I had a good attitude. Most importantly, however, I enabled her to understand the truth about Dafa and her side that is aware was glad. Someone in her hometown had gynecological problems. Persuaded by my patient, this woman went to the trouble of traveling a long distance to come to me for treatment. She spent more than a 1,000 yuan on her travel expenses but only about 200 to see a doctor. She said, “It was well worth it!” I know that for the eternity of her existence, after she knows the truth about Dafa, this trip was priceless and could not be bought with gold.
The doctor and patient relationship became one of saving and being saved. I put my heart into alleviating the patients' suffering and, in the medical setting, validate Dafa. My income from the outpatient services did not decrease a bit; everything follows a logical train of thought when the starting point is correct.
A considerable number of those in my outpatient services who are saved are students. Because the primary school students' minds are relatively uncomplicated, they quit the CCP's youth organizations after a few words. Most of the time, after I finish clarifying the truth to one group of students, another group shows up. A fifth grade girl accompanied her classmates for treatment. After treating their illnesses, I clarified the truth and showed them the truth clarifying DVD. Then I persuaded them to do the three withdrawals. Time and again, this girl would bring her classmates to see me. She said, “The teacher asked me to come.” I smiled because she brought people with a predestined relationship to me. That side of her that is aware is very sacred. As a result, about half of the classmates in her class understand the truth. The world's people are finding the truth, and I am only using my mouth, but it is Master who ingeniously arranged all of this long ago.
There have been many similar examples, but I will not recount them all. While everything seemed ordinary, over time and with perseverance, more than 10 years unknowingly passed, and I do not know how many people I have saved. I did my work dutifully and used Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance as my guide to treat patients, reflecting the mental outlook that a Dafa disciple should have. When I study the Fa well, I am able to look inward when I encounter tensions or conflicts, and generally, these conflicts can be resolved. The results of clarifying the truth to my patients is also good. If I am busy treating patients and study the Fa less and send forth righteous thoughts less, I will not be able to pass the test when I encounter conflicts. One day, a patient came. I asked him, “Where does it hurt?” With a look of distrust, he said, “Are you qualified to treat patients?” I was indignant that he said that and thought, “I have been a doctor for more than 10 years. How could you doubt my ability?” Although I was unhappy, I put a smile on my face and said, “You'll see.” I let him go after treating him and did not clarify the truth to him. I thought to myself that since he did not believe in me, I had nothing to say to him. Thus, due to a preference, a predestined person lost the chance to hear the truth. I regretted it later. After looking inward, I found that it was due to my seeking fame. I had gotten used to hearing praise, and when someone made rude remarks, I became very upset. There was also jealousy. I knew I needed to cultivate this away upon realizing it.
Recently, I encountered a series of situations that bothered me. First, the computer broke down. After it was repaired, the printer stopped working right. Finally, the printer problem was solved, and then my husband got into a car accident. The car was damaged, and it cost more than five thousand yuan to repair it. But the windshield was not installed properly, and it leaked. It still leaks even after having it repaired many times. Suddenly I became vigilant. I realized my cultivation was not diligent during this period of time, and there was also pursuit of comfort. My attachment of sexual attraction and desire has yet to be let go as well as the attachment to doing things. I found many attachments that were on the surface, but I felt that I had yet to find the attachment that was hidden at a deeper level. I recalled carefully that, for the past few years, the biggest goal in my ordinary work was to pay off debts, because I had borrowed hundreds of thousands from friends and relatives to buy a house and car. Other than for living expenses, the vast majority of what I earned was used to pay off debts. I felt pressured to pay the debts early, so when I saw that I only had two to three hundred thousand left to pay off, I was relieved and thought that I could finish paying the debt in a matter of months. As a result, I encountered a series of troubles and did not pay a single cent during these months. Instead, I had to fork out more than one hundred thousand. This was really “haste makes waste.” There were two hidden attachments, the attachments to time and to consummation. There was a fear that I could not reach consummation if I did not finish paying the debts. As this attachment was not let go of in the long-term, it caused a series of interferences. Now that I have found them, I feel very relaxed, as the heavy substance in my head is gone.
My xinxing was tempered at work, and I took advantage of the favorable environment to validate Dafa and save predestined people. In my spare time, I do some Dafa projects, send forth righteous thoughts, study the Fa and do the exercises, and coordinate with fellow practitioners. During these years, protected by Master, I've been able to walk my path. I hope we can progress together with diligence in the time remaining.
