(Minghui.org) I was introduced to Falun Dafa in 2009 when I was 40 years old. The first 40 years of my life, I didn't really know what I was doing. After encountering Dafa, I felt I had been given a second life. I thank Master for saving me and bringing me into Dafa cultivation at the end of Fa-rectification. Since then, I have become one of the happiest beings in the universe.
Looking for a new home
Last year, the residential area that I lived in was to be demolished and everyone had to find new a place to live. So many people lived there, and so many were afraid that they wouldn't be able to find a new home. At the time, our family consisted of my husband, our child, and my mother-in-law. My husband was very busy at work and had no time to take care of things at home. I was working and had to take care of the family and do the three things. So I was very busy, too, but I wasn't anxious. I thought, “I am a Dafa practitioner and Master will arrange everything for me. My mission is to save all sentient beings. Wherever Master arranges for me to be, I'll go there and save sentient beings.”
Moving is not easy. I said to Master, “Master, I do not want to waste my time moving. I want to spend the time validating the Fa and saving sentient beings. Please help me.” My husband saw that all our neighbors were moving away and got a little nervous. He said to me, “Where are we going to find a house? Where are we moving?” I said to him calmly, “No problem. Do not worry. Master Li will arrange it for us. You can go online and look around and see if there is any place that you'd find acceptable.” My husband had not started cultivating at the time, but he really supported me in Dafa.
After a few days, my oldest sister called me and said they'd found a place near their home for us, as the present owner was about to move away. It had just been renovated a couple of years before, had some furniture, and was pretty clean. So we didn't have to move much of our furniture over, and it was very easy to clean up. We were very happy. I knew that it was our compassionate Master who had arranged this.
The afternoon before moving, my husband went over to clean it up. The next day, we both took a day off and hired a moving company. My brother-in-law drove his car over to help us. With my oldest sister, we moved very quickly. I knew that without Master's arrangements, this job could not have been done so easily!
The next morning after I did the exercises, I looked outside while standing on the balcony of our new home. It was such a large residential area. I knew that Master had given me a very important responsibility. I said to Master in my heart, “I will do my best to talk to all the sentient beings here so that they can know the true facts about Falun Dafa and they can be saved.” I began making truth clarification materials in my home and have now distributed materials to each household in the area at least once.
Putting up Shen Yun posters
Before the 2013 New Year, I shared with my older practitioner sister that we should put Shen Yun posters up before the DVD came out. It would leave an impression in people's minds, and then when we distributed the DVDs, they would recognize them and want the DVDs even more.
In the past when we put up posters, some buildings were old and the walls were very dusty, making it hard to stick anything to them. This time we wanted to clean up parts of the wall before putting the posters up. It was a very cold night. My husband and I went out together, and I asked Master to help me. When I walked into the building, I saw that someone had put a white bulletin board on the wall, making it much easier to display our posters. I was very happy and said to my husband, “Look, we had the heart and Master arranged everything for us perfectly.” I felt surrounded by warm energy and wasn't cold at all that night. As long as our hearts are tied to saving sentient beings and as long as we believe in Master and the Fa, Master prepares everything for us. All we need to do is go out and do it.
The power of righteous thoughts
In the hallways of the buildings, I put up stickers that said, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” and two pink lotus flowers below the white stickers. They looked beautiful. Although I couldn't see it, I knew that in other dimensions, they would be eliminating evil factors in that area.
But after just a few days, someone had torn the stickers down. I put up another set, and they were again removed. I did it again and then searched within myself. I realized that I still had the attachment of fear, competitiveness, and resentment. After finding these attachments, I sent forth righteous thoughts to clear them away.
I also sent out a strong thought: "I will not allow evil factors to control sentient beings to commit crimes against Dafa. These stickers are for saving sentient beings and I want to support them with my righteous thoughts." I tried to clear away all the evil factors and spirits behind the sentient beings, so that those who had torn down the stickers be punished with pain in their arms and hands. It has been several months now, and those stickers are still there. It helped me to see that Dafa disciples' righteous thoughts are indeed powerful.
Over the past several years of cultivation, with help from our compassionate Master and fellow practitioners, I've tried hard to do the three things well. Using the ability of “searching within” that Master has given to us, I've tried constantly to cultivate myself to eliminate attachments. Although I still have many attachments, such as fear, fame, gain and reputation, jealousy, and lust, I will follow Dafa to correct myself and gradually eliminate these attachments and notions. After tens of thousands of years of waiting, our compassionate Master has awakened me to remember who I am. In these last moments, I will do my best to catch up.
