(Minghui.org) The persecution of Falun Dafa was still quite severe in the spring of 2001. Our Falun Dafa coordinator informed us that we planned to gather at a local food court on the morning of a certain day. Each of us would buy some food so we would not upset the shop owners, and sit in the public area to talk and share our thoughts while we ate. This ensured our safety. The gathering was the same as having a small experience sharing conference, where we could discuss ideas and plans for the future. Practitioners could choose to attend or not, but I decided to go because we had not gotten together since the persecution started in July 1999.
The night before the sharing I had a dream, in which many of the practitioners received a notice to attend a Fahui (experience sharing conference) in heaven. Many of us from all over the area traveled in a group and suddenly we floated upward to the sky. We flew over grand rivers, high mountains, and a waterfall. After we went through the waterfall, none of us emerged wet and we assumed the forms of Buddhas, Daoists, and deities. Some of us had lotus flowers or clouds under our feet, and some rode on animals as we flew toward heaven.
After we arrived in heaven, we had a Fahui in a palace. We were in a place that looked like a classroom, where there were tables, Chinese dragons, phoenixes, rabbits, lambs, and birds. The palace and everything in it, including the supporting pillars and animals, were made of gold. The place was dazzling and resplendent. The animals in heaven were also deities, and were sentient and could communicate with us.
Outside of the palace was a lotus pond, in which there were lotus flowers of various sizes and colors. Each of us had our own lotus flower. I entered a flower and sat on it. At night it closed up like a tent and I could sleep inside. In the morning all the flowers opened up and emitted various beams of color, which formed an unparalleled, beautiful scene.
Master Li Hongzhi said:
“Tens of thousands of pure lotus I plantedAll bloom in the bitter cold despite the snowThe sky clears and spring comes, filling the gardenDivine flowers display hundreds of formsFragrant breezes permeating, wafting beyond the heavens”(“Lotus,” Hong Yin volume II)
Each one of us was one of these lotuses.
After the Minghui Editorial published “Call for Articles for the 20th China Fahui on Minghui.org,” another dream came to me. I was sitting in a large stadium full of people wondering why so many people were there. I later realized that I was at a Fahui. After I woke up, I realized that Master was giving me a hint to submit an article for the Fahui.
I have submitted articles to Minghui.org every year since 2007. I also helped other practitioners organize and type up their articles. Only some of the articles I submitted to a China Fahui or World Falun Dafa Day Celebration were accepted for publication. Some of those that weren’t published then were published later as regular sharing articles. The important thing is to take part in the opportunity for experience sharing. When we write, we summarize our improvement in cultivation. I hope practitioners in China can actively participate in submitting their sharing articles.
I thank Master for his constant protection and encouragement. I thank the practitioners for working together as one body.
