(Minghui.org) I live in northeast China. During the summer and winter school vacations, I take care of my grandson in one of the area’s big cities. Dafa practitioners is this city have been severely persecuted, so, to save people in this area and do the three things well, I had to get rid of my attachment of fear. Below are some of my cultivation experiences.
Eliminating My Attachment of Fear
I first met practitioners in this city a few years ago. To get truth-clarifying materials, I had to go to a practitioner’s home that was far away. Sometimes I ran out of materials before I could get more. Although I knew it wasn’t right to rely on other practitioners for materials, I didn’t dare produce them myself due to my fear of being persecuted.
I knew that the attachment of fear was preventing me from saving people. It was a stumbling block on my cultivation path. I asked Master to help strengthen my righteous thoughts to disintegrate my fear. After repeatedly sending strong righteous thoughts, I clearly felt that the evil interference had reduced and the dimension was clearer.
My daughter and her husband have been very supportive of my Dafa practice, so I shared my thoughts with them. When my son-in-law realized that I wanted to produce my own materials, he bought me a printer, paper, a paper cutter, plastic bags, and other materials. From then on, the printer was an important tool in the Fa-rectification.
Making My First Trip
The first time I printed my own truth-clarifying materials, I felt a mixture of happiness and fear. I was happy that I could make the materials on my own, but I was afraid that my whole family might be persecuted if the police found my printer. It didn’t matter where I hid it, I still felt uneasy leaving it at home. The printer became a burden to me.
The first time I stepped into our building elevator with the materials in my bag, my heart grew heavy with fear. But I immediately thought of Master’s poem “What’s There to Fear,” and summoned my courage to keep going.
Master said,
“If you have fear, they will grab youOnce your thought is righteous, evil will collapse...”(“What’s There to Fear,” Hong Yin II)
I reminded myself that saving people is a Dafa practitioner’s mission, and I was suddenly no longer scared. I walked quickly into each high-rise building and left a package of materials at each apartment. I distributed more than 20 packages on my first trip. With Master’s protection, I felt safe and calm on the way home.
Leaving the Printer on My Desk
The second time I went out, I looked at my printer, wondering where I could hide it. I felt better after I hid it in a cabinet. This time, I took more materials with me, and my heart wasn’t as heavy.
Along the way, whenever a thought about being persecuted appeared in my mind, I immediately sent forth righteous thoughts to deny it. I felt my attachment of fear lessen, and I became wiser about saving people.
I understood that the printer is an important tool in the Fa-rectification. If anyone took it, they would suffer retribution! After my third trip, I no longer felt scared, and from then on, I just left the printer on my desk when I went out.
Handing out Materials Without Feeling Scared
There are many high-rise buildings in the area where my daughter lived, and each one has more than 30 floors. I would walk straight up to the top floor and then come back down, distributing the materials floor by floor as I went. I was able to successfully distribute the materials every time.
If the electronic door to the high-rise building was closed, I calmly thought, “I am a Dafa practitioner in the Fa-rectification period. I have a mission to help Master rectify the Fa. People here are waiting to be saved.” Shortly after that, someone would either come out or go into the building and I was able to go through the door.
On one occasion, I arrived at a high-rise building and waited a while, but no one came to open the door. Then I saw a woman by the window on the first floor inside the building. I had no fear, so I tapped on the window and asked her to open the door for me. And she did.
Another time, I saw a young doorman in the reception area. Smiling, I knocked on the door and asked him to open it. He didn’t say anything, but just opened the door.
Saving people is the cultivation path that Master has arranged for his disciples, and no one can stand in the way. But from time to time, I still found my fear surfacing, although not very strong. Yet I was able to send righteous thoughts to eliminate the fear each time that happened.
I have truly experienced the beauty and wonder of Dafa. Sometimes, I felt that I was floating from door to door, without even touching the floor. Sometimes, the electronic door opened automatically when I got close to it. Whatever was needed would happen.
As Dafa disciples, we must study the Fa more, practice diligently, constantly improve ourselves according to the Fa, and do the three things well. We should live up to Master’s compassionate salvation and fulfill our sacred vows so that we can return home with Master.
