(Minghui.org) From the Fa, we know that the cultivation path to divinity walked by Dafa disciples is to be left for the people of the future. Therefore, it is important to walk well our paths in ordinary society. Because of my steadfast cultivation in Dafa, the evil persecuted me and forced me into bankruptcy. By the end of 2006, with help from fellow practitioners, I managed to secure a professional position that paid a monthly salary of only 600 Yuan. At that time fellow practitioners reminded me that I must remember that this was arranged for me to validate the Fa. A year later, I was tranferred to another unit and was appointed project leader. In 2009, I became the regional person in charge in another company, drawing an annual income of a few hundred thousand yuan. I quietly clarified the truth about Dafa there.

1. Lost and Covered in Karma, I Was Saved by Master to Return to the Origin

In August 1995, when I was 30 years old, a Dafa practitioner presented me with a set of Dafa books. I read from 9 a.m. To 4 p.m. and finished the entire book Zhuan Falun. In an instant I knew I had found what I had been searching and waiting for. I advanced quickly in my personal cultivation, as my main consciousness was able to remain clearheaded when faced with tribulations. I was frequently able to identify and eliminate bad thoughts as soon as they emerged. I ensured that I studied the Fa for at least 6 hours daily, or copied Zhuan Falun by hand if I was unable to concentrate. To date I have copied Zhuan Falun a total of four times. I also read Essentials for Further Advancement every day.

We started seeing signs of the evil persecution in 1998 and 1999. In 1998, I went to the provincial Department of Propaganda to clarify the truth and correct the distorted media reports on Dafa. I realized on that day that Buddhas have the role of protecting the truth of universe. Master has greatly strengthened my supernormal powers, and since then I have walked the path of validating the Fa, clarifying the truth, and safeguarding the Fa.

2. Saving Sentient Beings

At the start of the persecution, my heart was unstable, and I suffered greatly from the persecution. But I knew Master was constantly by my side.

One morning, a female guard saw me exercising and dragged me out to handcuff me to a freezing cold iron post. The temperature then was minus 16 or 17 degrees as she proceeded to remove my overcoat, leaving me with just a wool sweater. I clarified the truth to her, and she hit me across my face around 10 times or so, though I felt no pain. After a while, she asked if I felt any pain. When I replied that I was in no pain, she told me that her hand hurt so badly that she could not lift it. She also told me her mother practiced Falun Gong, and from then on she took special care of me.

The compassion shown by Dafa disciples can move sentient beings. One night we were caught talking by the guards, and the whole room was made to stand up as punishment. I said, “Since everyone is standing, why not join me in my exercises?” The seven of us ended up practicing 40 minutes of ‘Holding the Law Wheel’ exercise. I copied Dafa books, and someone softly recited it lecture by lecture.

It took a long while for me to break through the persecution and openly study the Fa and practice the exercises. During this time I copied Zhuan Falun and passed it on to other practitioners. I also wrote many articles on the goodness of Dafa, sending them to various departments at all government levels. I remember being sent by the labor camp, in April or May 2000, to a hospital for a medical examination and their drawing my blood. Accompanying me were a dozen other practitioners who were also on a hunger strike. Thinking back, I believe this examination was likely for testing to see if we were candidates for organ harvesting.

In early 2001, an official from the Ministry of Justice came specifically to meet me. He barred the head of the labor camp and his lackeys from entering the room. I talked about the things I saw at the prison, and he made a record. He then asked me about my understanding of the “self-immolation” incident, and I replied that it was a government setup. He then asked me why I picked up Falun Gong, along with many other questions, and I tried my best to answer him based on my own level of understanding. Finally he said, “You may take your belief and leave this place.”

One winter, I was imprisoned in a small cell when a patrolling duty woman happened to see me from outside the window. Later she excitedly said, “You really are a cultivator for Buddhahood. I saw you sitting within a golden circle of light, your entire body was shining and there was a golden beam directly above your head!” Master uses various methods all the time to save sentient beings. Quite a number of people released from the labor camp actually went to find my husband for a copy of Zhuan Falun.

In March of 2001, I came down with a fever and was brought to a hospital, where I was cuffed to the bed and hooked up to an intravenous drip. I noticed the female team leader behaving very strangely then.

I believe the substances meant for normal people have no effect on me. I clarified the truth to the male team head who sat beside me, supervising me, and he said that this sounded like a message from heaven, before spilling his heart out to me. From the symptoms I experienced later (loose gums, damaged memory, difficulty controlling my emotions, feeling that many poisonous insects were biting me within my body, etc.), the evil must have injected me with a drug, intending to destroy my nervous system.

3. Being a Particle of Fa Rectification

One day in 2004, I read Master’s latest lecture and decided to validate Dafa and become a true Dafa disciple.

Because of the persecution, for a period of time I had difficulty making ends meet. Before the persecution, I used to introduce Dafa to people in the middle and upper class of society. Now I could only spread the Fa to the lowest level in society. Master mentioned in His Fa,

“This is especially so for the Dafa disciples in Mainland China: each must come out and clarify the truth, bringing it to every field and valley, mountain and hill, not omitting a single area where there are people.” (“Let Go of Human Attachments and Save the World's People”)

I believe this allowed me to release all my human attachments, elevate in levels, and save sentient beings with a purer heart. Master said,

“Cultivation practice is magnificent and solemn. Whether you can abandon your particular human notions is a major test that you will have difficulty passing, yet you must pass. After all, as a disciple truly practicing cultivation, you must abandon these attachments since you can never reach Consummation without abandoning these notions.” (“Abandon Human Attachments and Continue True Cultivation” in Essentials for Further Advancement)

I was determined to cultivate solidly and started by distributing flyers before finally managing to hand out CDs and flyers to people face to face.

With each accomplishment I felt boundless happiness within my heart, and I felt myself merging into the flow of Fa rectification.

I realize Master helps practitioners fulfill their wishes. I have always had the wish to show the world the dignity of Dafa. After all, in accordance with the human laws of this world, the persecution conducted by the evil is illegal. Master must have seen my heart, as He arranged for me to visit Beijing to hire a lawyer. On the way there, I listened to Master’s lectures. On my arrival in Beijing, I spent half an hour sending forth righteous thoughts at Tiananmen Square before heading off to meet with the lawyer. This lawyer had a strong sense of righteousness and later did a lot of things which shocked the authorities, although he also suffered severely from persecution. Along the way back, I clarified the truth as the entire car full of passengers listened quietly. I understood from this that when practitioners' hearts are pure, Master can arrange for everything to be done well.

Miracles occurred regularly during cultivation. But sometimes our own attachments can cause unnecessary trouble, from lighter instances which only affect oneself, to more serious cases which affect the entire surrounding environment, all of which compassionate Master helps to resolve. Once, because of my long standing attachment to competition and jealousy, I quarreled with my fellow practitioners in front of a non-practitioner. The next day a dozen police officers raided my home and arrested me. I had planned to edit an article on the persecution of Dafa practitioners in the region, but that morning my computer suddenly malfunctioned. With the arrival of the police, I realized that Master had done this to protect me. At that point I sent forth a thought, asking Master to hide my Fa-validation materials from the eyes of the evil. In the end, the policemen did not find anything. Instead, like a teacher teaching her students, I raised my voice to tell them the facts, and all ten of them listened in silence. I knew I did not want to acknowledge this persecution. So when I was sent to brainwashing sessions, I constantly sent forth righteous thoughts and examined myself internally while asking for Master’s help. Four hours later, my fellow practitioner and I walked out of the evil’s den.

During the 2008 Olympics, as our district was relatively close to Beijing, we became one of the key areas persecuted by the evil. Although I was busy with work, my righteous thoughts were strong, and I would study the Fa every day after work. When a head from the 610 Office came to look for me, I had just been preparing to find him to clarify the truth to him. I persuaded him to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations, and he arranged for his family to quit as well.

Because I did not remove my attachments to fame and happiness, including emotional attachments when dealing with fellow practitioners, I was sentenced to labor camp for a year around the start of 2009. On the way to the labor camp, I did not firmly deny the situation till I suddenly realized the need to reject this persecution. Only then would I be walking the path arranged by Master. I felt that Master was by my side, so I sent forth a thought, “I will walk the path arranged by Master.” When I underwent a medical examination at the labor camp, measurements showed that my heart was almost not beating, with a blood pressure of 180/240. The evil still did not give up and constantly monitored me from morning till night before finally sending me home.

4. Walking Well the Path of Cultivation

Because of the evil persecution, I was forced into bankruptcy. By the end of 2006, I managed to secure a professional position with help from fellow practitioners. Drawing a monthly salary of only 600 Yuan, I was working with freshly graduated colleagues in their early 20s. The people I came in contact with treated me well and were willing to help. They also had a righteous attitude towards Dafa, with many quitting the CCP and its other organizations. A year later, I was promoted to another unit and was appointed project leader. In 2009, I became the person in charge of a region in another company, drawing an annual income of a few hundred thousand yuan. Because of my excellent work, I won a national prize and became a somewhat well-known professional specialist.

This year Udumbara flowers grew on my car, and I knew this was Master encouraging me. My development along the road to becoming a professional specialist was a miracle and showed the mighty virtue of Dafa. Under Master’s compassionate protection, almost a third of the people working within my unit have quit the CCP.

Because of my achievements in my area of specialty, my university classmates have come to respect us. As a couple, close to half of our classmates have quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations, and some have helped their family members quit. The majority of them are executives or high ranking industry professionals. In 2012 my husband and I became executives in separate high-end industry enterprises. Wherever I go, I will clarify the truth and spread the pure goodness of Dafa to sentient beings.
