(Minghui.org) The environment around us changes when we improve on our Falun Dafa cultivation path. Two Falun Dafa practitioners recently shared their stories of the changes brought about by their “one thought.”
I went with three practitioners to help local practitioners in another town set up a truth-clarification material production site. In our van we had a printer and several boxes of copy paper.
Facing the Police With Righteous Thoughts
We were stopped at the highway exit by five police officers doing vehicle checks. I reminded myself that everyone came to the world with the belief that they could be saved by Falun Dafa during the Fa-rectification. My heart was steadfast. I recited Master’s teaching in my heart.
Master said,
“When people show the appropriate respect and reverence toward Dafa as it manifests here in this world, they, their race, or their nation will enjoy blessings or honor. It was Dafa—the Great Way of the universe—that created the cosmic body, the universe, life, and all of creation. Any life that turns away from Dafa is truly corrupt. Any person who can align with Dafa is truly a good person, and will be rewarded and blessed with health and happiness.” (“On Dafa,” Zhuan Falun)
As the officers began to inspect our van, I continued to recite the Fa in my heart.
I felt positive Fa energy surround us. It was so pure. The police were also immersed and seemed moved by the energy.
An officer smiled and said to us, “You are a small business, correct? One of your rear wheels is a little loose. You should have that fixed. Drive slow and be safe.” I replied, “Thank you for your kind and helpful advice.”
We arrived in town and set up the production site for the local practitioners. We cooperated well as one body to fulfill our mission in saving people.
Resentment Disappeared After Looking Within
I cherish my family and have a good relationship with them, but recently some problems came up. I thought that I had been sincere with them and it was they who were wrong. I did not look within, and believed that they were not being fair to me.
The more I thought about it, the bigger the gap between us became. My resentment began to grow. I found it disturbing and exhausting.
I thought that I'd better step up my cultivation. With such enlightenment, Master’s teaching kept showing up in my mind. I recognized the selfishness within me. I have been kind to my parents and sisters, but it was mistakenly based on my belief of their trust and respect for me. Was I following the standard of a practitioner?
At that moment, the Fa manifested in my mind at many layers. It was sacred and wonderful. My heart was filled with compassion and all the resentment was gone.
As for my parents and sisters, although they are struggling for fame, interest, and emotion, they too came down to earth to attain the Fa. As a Dafa practitioner, I must cherish them. How then could I hold any resentment toward them?
