(Minghui.org) My mother introduced me to Falun Dafa when I was 12 years old. I did not gain a deep understanding of Dafa at the beginning, but after studying the Fa over a period of time, I learned that Dafa is very precious.
My mother was the first person in my family to practice. Soon, all her illnesses disappeared and she no longer needed any of her medications. After seeing her health improvements our entire family began to practice Dafa, one after another.
Practicing Falun Dafa taught me how to be a good person. I followed the principles Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, and no longer started conflicts with my classmates.
I had coughed a lot since I was very young, but the coughing disappeared after I took up the practice. My back had always been slightly bent. By practicing the Falun Dafa exercises it straightened on its own.
I developed some painful bumps, which were filled with puss, which I understood were a karma releasing condition, so I ignored them and they went away on their own.
Master said:
“The root of your health problem has been plucked out now, and only that little bit of black qi is left, coming out on its own, so that you have a little hardship and go through some difficulty. If you didn’t bear anything it really wouldn’t work.” (Zhuan Falun)
Even when the persecution was at its worst, my entire family remained steadfast Falun Dafa practitioners.
I studied Master’s new articles and came to understand the reason for the evil persecution and the mission we practitioners shoulder. I knew I had to clarify the truth in order to save people. So I took the opportunity to tell the people around me the facts about Dafa.
One of my high school classmates, whom I met in elementary school, was also a practitioner. We often cooperated to clarify the facts about Falun Dafa to our schoolmates. I brought materials from home and we distributed them when we had the opportunity.
One day the school was holding a flag raising ceremony. Both of us stayed behind to avoid participating in it. We picked several classrooms in which to distribute Dafa materials, while the students and teachers were outside.
While we were distributing the materials, a student, who was also a former classmate from elementary school, suddenly came into the classroom. He asked what we were doing. I handed him a copy of the flier we were distributing so he could read it and learn the truth. I later learned that he believed the facts about Dafa and supported our effort.
After graduating from high school I attended a university in another city. Fellow practitioners worried that I would lag behind in my cultivation without my family’s cultivation environment. They often called to remind me to be diligent.
When I arrived at the university, I was assigned to a dormitory with five roommates. I bought a phone card in the dorm office. I paid for a 30-yuan card but was given a 50-yuan card by mistake. I immediately corrected the mistake.
One of my roommates heard about it and asked me if I practiced Falun Dafa. I was surprised that he would ask such a question. I figured that he must understand the truth about Falun Dafa or at least knew that practitioners would not take advantage of others’ mistakes.
This incident helped me clarify the facts about Falun Dafa to all my roommates at once. I told them that Falun Dafa is good and that the Tiananmen self-immolation was staged by the government. They agreed to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliates. From then on, I studied the Fa and did the exercises in my dorm room.
On my way back to school I brought several dozen copies of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party and other truth-clarification materials in a bag. When I got off the bus at the university, neither the bus driver nor I could find the bag.
I went to my dorm room and immediately sent forth righteous thoughts. I also looked within and found that my human attachments had caused this problem.
I called my family and told them about the incident. I knew they would send righteous thoughts to help eliminate any evil interference. The bag was returned to the bus company and I was notified.
At that time, the persecution of Falun Dafa was severe and bags were often searched at the bus station. It would be dangerous for me to go retrieve the bag. My family reminded me to strengthen my righteous thoughts.
I went to the bus station to retrieve my bag. The materials were all there and no one had checked the bag.
Several years ago I was driving our car to my hometown with my parents and sister. While passing under a bridge, a big truck hauling rock was coming toward us from the opposite direction. Another car was trying to pass the truck using our lane.
To avoid a head-on collision I moved to the edge of the road. Our car plowed into a drainage ditch, flipped over, and landed upside down in the ditch.
My mother shouted, “Master, save us!” In the ditch, the engine kept running and made a horrible sound. I was worried that the car would explode and wanted to get out, but I could not open the door. We all asked Master for help.
Fortunately, there were people nearby who witnessed the accident and came to pull us out. My father’s head and eyes were bleeding and there were bits of broken glass sticking to his face. My sister had a deep cut in her head that was bleeding profusely. My mother and I had no injuries. A passing truck stopped and took us to the county hospital.
My father and sister stayed overnight in the hospital. My father decided to check out the next day, even though the doctor said his left eye would be blind if he did not have proper medical attention. However, my father understood clearly that his damaged eye was caused by the evil elements in other dimensions and that the hospital could not heal it.
My father listened to the Fa and did the exercises every day, and the wounds closed within a week. My sister’s wounds also healed very quickly.
My car was totaled. A tow truck pulled it out of the ditch and took it to the junkyard. Even the steering wheel was bent and twisted.
The people who witnessed the accident said that they did not understand how I could have possibly survived, let alone be uninjured. We dared not imagine what would have happened to us without Master’s protection.
