(Minghui.org) A poem I read in my middle school textbook left a deep impression on me. It described a beautiful, harmonious world. I dreamed that I wanted to be in that world.
Falun Dafa made my dream come true.
Although I came across Falun Dafa in 2009, I did not truly practice it until four years later. I only practiced three of the five sets of the exercises every day, skipping the wheel-holding exercise and the sitting meditation. I finished reading Zhuan Falun, Falun Dafa's major book, once.
Sometimes I only read a few pages in that book. Even with my being lazy like this, Master Li Hongzhi, Falun Dafa's founder, took care of me. My chronic lumbar disc herniation disappeared.
My youngest son, who was four years old when I started practicing, also benefited from Dafa. I taught him to recite often, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance is good!”
He kept reciting this and his severe allergic sinus infection improved a lot.
When he was seven years old, one of his eyes was hurt when he lit some fireworks. It was too late in the evening to go to the hospital, so I told him to recite “Falun Dafa is good” and ask Master to help him. By the next morning, his eye was fine.
I never saw scenes in other dimensions, but what I experienced strengthened my belief in Falun Dafa.
When insulted or laughed at, I would feel lost and humiliated. When practitioners were arrested, I would be fearful. This made me realize that I did not fully believe in Master and the Fa.
Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance are Falun Dafa’s principles. It was difficult for me to follow these principles, and I made mistakes. I felt ashamed, and pushed myself to do better. Gradually, I broadened my thinking, and I improved by leaps and bounds.
I am no longer upset when I face tribulations, and it is easier for me to control my bad moods.
Studying Master’s Fa helped me find the root cause of life’s bitterness – every tribulation was caused by karma. One should pay back the karmic debts as soon as possible. One should also let go of attachments, including to fame, profit, and sentimentality.
Practicing Falun Dafa enabled me to have a peaceful, calm, and fearless mind – just what I was dreaming about.
