(Minghui.org) When I went to college in 2005, my mother gave me a copy of Zhuan Falun, the main text of Falun Dafa, an ancient spiritual and meditation discipline. Before I went to bed each night, I read a few paragraphs. After studying the book for a while, I realized that I had been very selfish in the past. I especially felt remorse about my attitude towards my grandmother.

My grandma became a widow at 49, after my grandpa died of tuberculosis at 55. She had three sons and three daughters. The oldest daughter was sent to another family. The second daughter died when she was seven. She couldn’t afford to buy new clothes or new shoes for her children. Sometimes she even picked up watermelon rinds left by others and pickled them. Due to the family’s extremely poor financial condition, my father began to work for a fishing business when he was a teenager.

My mother is three years older than my father. Because she had poor health, most families thought she wasn’t a good match. She chose my father in the end, as she was impressed with how capable and hard-working my father was. The only thing she struggled with was the poor relationship she had with my grandma.

I was raised by my grandma since I was three months old. I did not live with my mother until I was eight. Because I was the first grandson in the family, I received great love from everyone. My grandma took great care of me. When I had to get to school to prepare for a dance performance at 5 a.m., she got up at 3 a.m. to prepare breakfast for me. She washed my costumes every time I wore them and they were always ready for the next time. Although she lived a frugal life herself, she provided school supplies and delicious food for me.

After my uncle got married, the family conflicts intensified. They often fought with each other over money issues. My mother wasn’t good at handling conflicts and became emotional at times. My grandma was also very direct and said things that angered my mother. Although both of them were kind people, they fought with each other very often and no one was willing to give in. Because of the grudges between my grandma and mother, my grandma did not seem to love me as much. I started feeling resentment towards her.

Dafa Changed Everything

I started practicing Falun Dafa in 2005 and my life completely changed.

My grandma came to visit us during my winter break in 2006. I apologized to her, “Grandma, you treated me so well when I was little. My selfishness hurt you. I apologize and please forgive me.” I gave her a gift of 100 yuan. She cried.

I also apologized to my mother, who saw the changes in me and came back to Falun Dafa cultivation practice as well. The relationship between my mother and grandma significantly improved. My mother bought a new house for Grandma and also made contributions to her retirement account.

When the neighbors slandered Dafa, my grandma said, “Who said Falun Dafa is not good? My daughter-in-law became a better person because of it.”

I had a dream in 2020. I saw Grandma and me standing together, looking at countless sentient beings on the other side of a mountain, with white flowers on their heads. They seemed to be welcoming Grandma. There was a voice saying to send forth righteous thoughts for her.

Six months later, my grandma was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, which had spread to her liver, kidneys, head, and spine. She experienced a great deal of pain and we were all very sad. I begged Master to save Grandma. But I understood that Grandma came to this world to hear about Dafa. My mission was to let her know Dafa is good. After she understood the truth, her life would be taken care of by Master Li.

We asked Grandma to repeat the auspicious phrases often, “Falun Dafa is good and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” Her physical exam showed that the cancer was controlled. She no longer felt any pain. Grandma said, “Falun Dafa’s Master has blessed me!”

At the end of her life journey, my grandma was very calm and peaceful. I held her hand and told her, “Remember Master and let Master handle everything for you!” She nodded.

I remember once when I was chatting with Grandma, she said, “Your mother always found fault with me for very trivial things. What made her change to such a good person?” I said, “She reads Zhuan Falun every day. Master taught her to be good.” Grandma said, “Master is so good! Only good Masters will have good disciples!”
