(Minghui.org) I have been a Falun Gong practitioner for 18 years. Master has purified my body and guided my cultivation, transforming me from a person covered in karma to a Dafa disciple.
Three Against One and Still Not Able to Harm Me
I yelled out “Falun Dafa is good!” and held up a banner with the same words at Tiananmen Square in 2001. After traveling back home, I was illegally detained for three years at the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp. There, I was tortured by the guards and by three former practitioners who had been coerced into renouncing Falun Dafa.
One day, those three former practitioners took me to a small room. Two of them tried to push me to the ground and beat me. One held my shoulders down, while the other pulled my legs up. At that moment, my mind was very clear with strong righteous thoughts. I recited in my heart one of Master's poems:
“Dafa does not leave the body,The heart harbors Zhen-Shan-Ren;In the world is a great Arhat,Spirits and ghosts fear greatly.” (“Mighty Virtue” from Hong Yin)
As I recited, my body felt still beyond measure. The three tried hard, but were not able to harm me. They became exhausted and said, “How come this newcomer is so strong that even three of us can not hurt her?” In the end they had to give up. “Go back to your room—you are too much for us.”
Master strengthened my righteous thoughts to stop the intense persecution.
A Tamed Hurricane
One afternoon in 2005, I had hung out clothes on a line to dry when a hurricane arrived. My neighbour's chimney was blown down, which fell onto their roof, while their front door was also blown away. There was no time for me to bring my laundry inside.
So I shouted to the hurricane, “Falun Dafa is good! Falun Dafa is good!” The hurricane seemed to understand what I said, and passed by my yard without causing any damage.
My daughter witnessed this event. “'Falun Dafa is good!' is really amazing,” she said. “Even the hurricane, a force of god, could understand.”
My Husband's Story
When the persecution started, my husband was scared and opposed my cultivation. But over the years, he has helped me to improve my cultivation in many ways.
In recent years, after he came to understand more about Dafa, he has benefited a lot from the practice as well. He used to be thin and weak with a sallow face, but now he has a rosy smile. He also used to be narrow-minded, but now he is cheerful with a good state of mind.
Over the years, he has also had many amazing experiences.
After I was arrested and detained in 2008, my husband, an electric tricycle taxi driver, was very depressed. Early one evening, he was driving his tricycle slowly along a street when he saw an old man trying to crash against his tricycle. My husband tried to stop his taxi and he shut his eyes. During the ordeal, he recited “Falun Dafa is Good” in his heart. When he opened his eyes, he saw the old man just walking by as if nothing happened. My husband realized that it must have been Master who protected him.
He told me this story after I had been released and returned home. I realized that our merciful Master is always with us. As long as we believe in Master and the Fa, He looks after not only disciples, but also their family members.
My husband's tricycle was hit by another tricycle in the spring of 2012. The accident was very serious—his tricycle spun around, and the windshield fell to the ground, smashing into the curb. But my husband recited silently many times, “Falun Dafa is good.” Finally, when he recovered the windshield, he was surprised to see it was completely undamaged. My husband said, “Thank you! Dafa Master.”
The tricycle had a large dent. The other driver offered him compensation for repair, but my husband declined. My husband said, “It is alright. Neither of us were injured. Off you go.” The driver went away with many thanks.
After repairing the damage, my husband came home and said to me, “You Dafa practitioners do not take advantage of others. I learned this from you and have become a good person.” I was very happy for him.
One day during the summer of 2014, my husband was driving a woman back to her home. Part of the road was flooded, and another tricycle was stalled on the other side of the water.
Seeing this, my husband thought, “I must get through the water.” He shouted while driving, “Falun Dafa is good! Falun Dafa is good!” While shouting, he drove right through the water.
The woman riding in his tricycle asked what he was shouting.
“I practice Dafa (in reality, he does not),” he told her. “Dafa protects practitioners at crucial moments. And you see, here is the result.”
My husband told me the story, and I asked, “Are you a cultivator?” He said, “At that moment, I just thought that I was a cultivator and that Dafa would protect me.”
I commented, “You are not an average person if you think about Dafa at crucial moments.” I encouraged him to cultivate his xinxing and set Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance as the standard for himself.
