(Minghui.org) Whenever I recall my experience of attaining the Fa, my heart is filled with gratitude to Master Li Hongzhi (Falun Dafa’s founder) for his compassion.
I began to practice qigong in my childhood. No matter which form of qigong I practiced, I seemed to easily develop supernormal abilities. One time I levitated. My body hit a high-voltage line, and I passed out. I woke up over half an hour later, sweating all over. I didn’t dare to practice my supernormal abilities from then on.
In 1996, I took care of my sick mother who was in the hospital. I talked to the son of the patient in the next bed about qigong. He said, “You know so much about qigong. Now, I recommend that you read a book about the most advanced qigong.”
Then he handed me the book Zhuan Falun. I wanted to reject it because I had practiced so many different qigong exercises, and I didn’t have any interest in continuing any of them. But since he put the book in my hand, I opened the cover and took a glance at the Master’s picture and the contents page. However, with only that glance, my supernormal abilities of the celestial eye, clairvoyance, and precognition and retrocognition were all developed.
Predicting the Death of My Mother
My mother was in a coma at that time. I told my family members that she would pass away at 8 a.m. the next day. They didn’t believe me. The next morning, my older brother touched my mother’s pulse, while looking at his watch. Our mother’s heart stopped beating exactly at 8 a.m.
Then, I told the other two patients in the same ward that one of them would leave the hospital in four days, and the other would leave in nine days. Their releases went exactly as I had said. Hence, the doctors, nurses, and patients regarded me as a “deity.”
When we cremated our mother’s body three days later, her body was still soft. I told my family members that her spirit had gone to heaven. My mother had such good fortune because she had been kind all her life, and she indirectly helped me attain the Fa.
Finding a True Cultivation Practice
After the funeral, I went to the bookstore to look for Zhuan Falun. Before I stepped into the bookstore, I found Zhuan Falun at a bookstall outside the gate. I picked it up and turned to a random page. It was Lecture Two, which talks about the celestial eye, clairvoyance, and Precognition and Retrocognition. I stood there and read through the whole lecture, and found that the book explained the principles behind those supernormal abilities so clearly. I thought about how I developed those supernormal abilities at the hospital after simply viewing Master’s picture and the contents page. My heart was full of admiration. I thought I finally found the true Master! I immediately bought the two books: Zhuan Falun and Falun Gong. From then on, I started cultivation practice.
Master is so compassionate. In order to help me connect to the Fa, he had me get the supernormal ability after glancing into Zhuan Falun. Then he guided me to read the book and help me realize Falun Dafa teaches people high-level cultivation.
Being Persecuted
After the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started its persecution of Falun Dafa in 1999, I was sentenced in 2000 to three-and-a-half-years of imprisonment. Right after I entered the prison cell, four inmates rushed over and started beating me. Oddly, the more they punched and kicked me, the more comfortable I felt. I didn’t feel any pain. I smiled and chuckled, “Come on, come to beat me!” They asked, “Why do you laugh when we beat you?” I said, “I didn’t feel any pain when you did; instead, I felt very comfortable when you beat me, so why shouldn’t I laugh?” They became scared and didn’t beat me again.
At the detention center and at the prison, I was frequently asked who told me to learn Falun Dafa. I always answered, “So you want to listen? Then please give me half-an-hour, and let me tell you the story.” Then I precisely told them the process of my attaining the Fa. They were all amazed, and none of them dared to persecute me. I was the only one in the cell who didn’t wear the prison uniform, and I didn’t have my hair shaved. The director over our area specifically warned the inmates not to persecute me.
Steadfast Cultivation
After I was released from prison, my workplace was granting “early retirement” to some people who wanted to retire. When others were bribing those in charge to be able to retire early, my superiors had already done all the necessary procedures for me to retire early. I didn’t have to put in any effort.
Last year, the CCP launched its so-called “zero-out campaign.” Officials at the residential management office called and asked me to go there to sign a guarantee statement. I said, “Sign what? I never even signed anything like that in prison! Please come and give me that so I can tear it up!” They never came to my home. Later, the director of the police station called me and asked me to visit them. I went there, and the director said, “We know you won’t sign it. However, if you don’t sign, we will imprison you.” I said, “I will never sign it!” The director finally said, “OK, fine, let it be. You can go home.”
I have always conducted myself in a dignified manner all these years. When I study the Fa, sometimes I forget everything except for the Fa. I feel myself fully assimilating to the Fa, and every single word of the Fa is imprinted into my heart. I even forget the existence of myself; what is left is only the Fa, only the Fa.
