(Minghui.org) I don’t claim to have a deep understanding of Falun Dafa’s principles, and I cannot see into other dimensions. My notion of seeing is believing and my poor enlightenment quality has affected my faith. I missed Master Li’s (Dafa’s founder) hints many times, as well as his painstaking arrangements for me to make improvements. Despite my slacking off and stumbling along Master has never given up on me, and has compassionately taken care of me. I’d like to tell you some examples of how Master has helped me.
I travel a lot in connection with my work and usually share a room, but I never know what kind of person my roommate will be. I’m always worried that I won’t be able to study the Fa and do the exercises. I asked Master to help me and I had some amazing experiences.
One time I had to go to Beijing for a three-day training. My roommate was another teacher from a nearby city and was about my age. During a nice chat before bedtime, I mentioned Falun Dafa to her and told her some stories in Zhuan Falun. She said, “I have read that book.”
It turned out that her husband was a Falun Dafa practitioner and she told a story of how her husband handled things selflessly. “That’s why I completely understand you. You may do whatever you need to do,” she said. I was able to study the Fa, do the exercises, and send forth righteous thoughts, as usual, all thanks to Master’s arrangement!
I had to attend another training which lasted about ten days. The training was held in a police school in another province. Both the location and the length of time made me hesitate, but the training was mandatory. Once again I asked Master for help.
This time, my roommate turned out to be a teacher from my hometown. We felt close to each other, especially since we both met each other so far away from our hometown. As we chatted, I naturally mentioned Falun Dafa. She didn’t sound negative or surprised about it at all. She told me that her sister-in-law was a Falun Dafa practitioner, and she witnessed the power of compassion through her sister-in-law’s changes. She knew that Falun Dafa was good, but said she couldn’t meet the requirements, so she didn’t practice. She also told me she was confused about the dreams she had about her deceased grandmother. I did my best to answer her questions based on what I learned from Dafa. She praised Dafa and I was able to do what I needed to do without any problem.
I was sent to make a design for college admission exams one year. All the teachers had to stay there for two weeks and weren’t allowed to bring any electronics. I brought a pocket-size Zhuan Falun with me and asked Master to make arrangements for me to stay with someone with a predestined relationship so I could clarify the truth of Falun Dafa to her.
Master knew my wish and made arrangements for me. The roommates were randomly assigned. My roommate was a teacher and the same age as me. We worked together, lived together, had meals together, and had heart-to-heart talks. She shared her confusions that troubled her for years. I explained things to her from the Falun Dafa principles. She not only decided to quit all the Communist organizations but also read Zhuan Falun with me in our spare time. When it was time to leave we finished reading the entire book.
We had three other business trips together with a Buddhist colleague. We respected each other’s beliefs and had a good relationship. Thanks to Master’s amazing arrangements, none of the trips interfered with my Fa study and truth-clarification.
Although I still have a strong attachment to comfort, I felt I needed to write this article on Master’s compassionate care. It validates Falun Dafa and serves as a motivation for me to cultivate myself diligently. I’m grateful for Master’s arrangements and treasure this rare opportunity to cultivate myself. I have benefited a lot from experience-sharing articles on the Minghui website, and I would like to make my contribution as well.
