(Minghui.org) I am 74 years old and have a five-year-old grandson. I have been practicing Falun Dafa since 1997. I used to suffer from several illnesses, including a heart problem and high blood pressure. I regained my health after I started practicing Dafa.
High-Risk Pregnancy
When my daughter was two months pregnant, she started to have pain and began hemorrhaging after going on a long bus trip. She was admitted to a hospital, but the hemorrhaging did not stop after a week. She became extremely worried since she was also in the high-risk pregnancy group because of her age.
When she called me, I said, “You’ll be fine, don’t worry. We'll ask Master Li (Dafa's founder) for help. Sincerely recite 'Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.'”
She called me the next day and said she could go home. It was a miracle!
After that, my daughter began reading Zhuan Falun and several of Teacher's lectures. She often read the Fa out loud to her unborn child. From then on, her pregnancy went smoothly and my daughter gave birth to a healthy boy.
Beginning Cultivation
I often played Master's lectures and Dafa music to my grandson after he was born. He was a happy baby.
At three years old, he most enjoyed watching Dafa's exercise demonstration DVD and listening to Fa lectures or Dafa music.
At four, my grandson was able to recite more than 80 poems from Master's Hong Yin books. I do not know how he learned so many difficult characters by himself. His communication skills, memory, and comprehension ability amazed everyone.
On the days that I took care of my grandson, we would first say our greetings to Master after we got up and before doing the Falun Dafa exercises. Afterward, we went out to talk to people about the practice and the persecution. In the afternoon, we studied the Fa together. For the rest of the day, I found many Dafa related materials for him to read and study.
Many people often praised my grandson, so I remind him to not be attached to zealotry or showing off. I also encouraged him to be a good person who lives up to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance wherever he goes.
During group study, he participates and takes turns reading Zhuan Falun. He can read the Fa smoothly, do all of the five Dafa exercises, and recite the verses for each exercise.
Clarifying the Truth
My grandson likes to talk to people about Dafa. He usually greets a stranger and says, “Please remember 'Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!' Are you a Party member? What's your name? Grandma, remember the name to help this person withdraw from the Party and be safe.”
I will then talk to the person and talk about Dafa, the persecution, and doing the three withdrawals. The results are usually positive.
My grandson memorized many stories from the Minghui Weekly and retold them word for word to family and friends. He once asked for a set of truth-clarification pamphlets to read. He would then recount some of the articles to his mom.
In his preschool class, he wanted to recite classical literature such as Standards for Being a Good Pupil and Child, Lunyu, and Mulan, while his classmates recited simple poetry or nursery rhymes. He would then explain the meaning of the passage after he recited it.
