(Minghui.org) I was fortunate to obtain Dafa on the eighth day of the first lunar month in 1998. Reading fellow practitioners’ sharing articles on the Minghui website was touching. Regardless of what their situations were, the practitioners believed in Master and the Fa. Compared with these practitioners, I felt ashamed that I didn’t think of sharing the amazing things I experienced in my 20-plus years of cultivation. I would like to share a few of them now.
Stepping on the Cultivation Path
Before I obtained the Fa, I believed in those people who were possessed by animals. If anyone in the family was sick or something happened, I would go ask them for help. Because I often asked for favors from those unclean things, I would sometimes cry or laugh for no reason.
Every night after my family members came home from work, I started to yawn 25 times consecutively, which was very uncomfortable. One time those things said to me: “Someone in your family worships a certain immortal, bring some offerings and incense when you go there.” I listened to what they said, and on the sixth day of the first lunar month, I brought offerings to my sister-in-law’s home. After offering incense, my eldest nephew’s wife was unhappy, saying that she felt uncomfortable when I offered incense to the immortal. I told my daughter’s mother-in-law about it, and she said: “You should practice Falun Dafa (also called Falun Gong), and those things won’t come to you.” So I stepped on the cultivation path.
On the first day I learned the exercises, my movements were not accurate. I could only do the exercise movement once, while the other practitioners did them three times.
My in-laws gave me a copy of Zhuan Falun. I read Zhuan Falun when I got home, and felt that the content in the book was exactly what I was looking for. It was really amazing, and I stopped yawning that night.
Amazing Occurrences
When Spring came, the practitioners went outside to do the exercises. I also went there. Some practitioners taught the exercises, and I learned them all over again. Since then Falun Dafa became a part of my life.
I remember one time when I was doing the second exercise of holding the law wheel, I saw a fairy flying in the sky, wearing ancient clothes. At a distance, it was red, then light blue, and when it reached my eyes, it was yellow. I watched for a while; then I blinked, and the fairy disappeared. Another night, when I was practicing the fifth exercise, I saw a stair-like avenue leading to the sky, with water and flowers on both sides of the avenue. The scene was very beautiful. I was standing at the bottom of the avenue. At that time, I was thinking it would be great if I could go up there!
Another time I did the sitting meditation, I saw a bridge. On the bridge, many people wearing black cotton-padded jackets with blue lining and black cotton shoes, were walking from the south side of the bridge to the north. I thought this might be Naihe Bridge. After I finished the exercise, I thought this must be Master giving me a hint: If you want to practice Dafa, you can walk up the avenue that leads to heaven. If you don’t practice, you will be like the people on that bridge, walking down to hell.
I usually practiced the sitting meditation at night. Because I thought the exercise music could disturb my family members’ sleep, I did not play the music. Instead, I used an electric clock to remind me of the time. I used that clock for more than 10 years. One night, after I practiced for a while, the clock did not light up. I thought it might be broken, so I thought of buying a new one. The next day I went to buy a new clock, and happened to see another practitioner. I told her about it, and she said: “Everything has a spirit, and you can communicate with it.” I said: “Why didn’t I think of that? I won’t buy a new one; I will go home and talk to it.” When I got home, I said to the clock: “My old friend, you have been with me for so many years, and I know you are very tired, but you must persevere. When I have consummated, you will definitely go to a good place; don’t give up halfway.” After I finished, the clock worked normally again.
Eliminating Karma
My husband, son, and daughter-in-law all work. My granddaughter is six years old, and my grandson is 17 months old. I took care of them, and cooked meals for them. No matter how busy and tired I was, I didn’t skip studying the Fa and doing the exercises. Master saw that I didn’t have time to eliminate karma during the day, so Master arranged that for me to do so at night.
For example, I came down with a fever at night, and it was gone in the morning. I recall one time I felt like I had a bad cold and a severe fever. I didn’t eat for two days. The third day, my husband bought raisins, and I had some. At night I started to vomit and had diarrhea. In the middle of the night, my husband said: “Why is your temperature not high anymore?” I said: “I’m fine now.” He said: “Amazing! You didn’t take medicine.” I said: “Of course, I have Master to take care of me.” In the 25 years since then, I have not had any cold symptoms.
Another time, I went to the morning market to buy vegetables. A tricycle knocked me down. My feet were against the wheel, but the woman driver kept driving. I shouted in my heart: “Master, please save me!” I heard someone saying: “Stop quickly; you hit someone!” The driver then stopped the tricycle. After I got up, the driver asked: “Are you hurt? Let’s go to a hospital.” I said: “It’s okay, you can leave.” The driver went to the fish stand and bought a big fish for me. I said: “Take it back. I am a Dafa practitioner. If you had hit someone else today, you would have had to pay hundreds of yuan just for an exam at a hospital.” Later I told her about quitting the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and she was very happy and said: “Thank you, my friend.” I said: “You don’t have to thank me, you should thank my Master.”
One day during the Chinese New Year, I was cleaning the kitchen. I couldn’t reach a high place, so I stacked two stools together, with the small one underneath. When I came down, I forgot that there were two stools, and I toppled over and fell to the ground. At that time, my head was buzzing, but my mind was clear. I thought to myself: “It’s okay!” And I got up right away. I’ve had this happen three times, and I was fine every time. If a regular person fell to the ground, they could break a bone, let alone from such a height. Compassionate Master protects me all the time.
Thanking Master for his Compassion
In this special historical period, I am fortunate to be a Dafa practitioner, and I really feel that I am the happiest person in the world. I thank Master for his compassion. Heshi.
