(Minghui.org) I am a Falun Dafa practitioner who works in a restaurant business that employs nearly 200 people. I have a happy family, and two well-behaved and thoughtful children. Although my husband does not practice Falun Dafa, he supports me.
When Falun Dafa was defamed and persecuted, I was fortunate to become a Dafa practitioner. I was moved by the profound principles taught by Dafa. In this chaotic human world, I feel peace and security, and I am fortunate to experience Master’s protection.
Three years after the pandemic, when the rest of the world was no longer on lockdown, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) still held the country under tight control and lockdown. The methods were extreme and absurd! The results were bankruptcy, unemployment, and restriction of personal freedom. The people’s endurance was stretched to the limit.
In December 2023, a fellow practitioner stayed at our house while on a business trip. As soon as she arrived, she experienced the symptoms of a fever. She was a new practitioner and had been practicing alone, so we seized the time to study the Fa, do the exercises, and exchange experiences based on the Fa.
The following day, we did the Falun Dafa exercises as usual. When she was doing the second exercise (Holding the Wheel), she suddenly sat down and said, “I can’t hold it any longer!” I patted her shoulder, and encouraged her to finish the exercise. I realized that she covered in a cold sweat. She made some adjustments and persisted in finishing the exercise. The cold sweat turned into hot sweat. She said with ease and joy, “Thank goodness you were here, and I held on. I’m fine now!” She went to work as usual that day.
But then, my husband and son got a fever! Then, it was my little daughter, the nanny, and then I seemed to be “infected” too! The symptoms were a heavy head, fatigue, and fever. It was quite severe. I could sense that it was not something from our dimension since it showed no emotions from our dimension. It invaded my field. Suddenly, it became extremely cold, and then, it was extremely hot. Sometimes, it was like a fire dragon that could melt steel; sometimes, it was extremely cold. I could see with my celestial eye that wherever it went, it left a pile of white jellyfish-like things like mucus, which would multiply infinitely. Ordinary people could not avoid it at all! No wonder people would feel so much pain if they were infected.
At that time, my righteous thoughts were powerful, and I immediately recited, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” Through the entire night, I sent forth righteous thoughts to destroy it. That thing was ferocious, but given my righteous thoughts, it disappeared before dawn. Then everything in my body returned to normal!
When I recalled the experience, I realized it was a battle between good and evil in another dimension. If it weren’t for the strength and protection of Dafa, an ordinary person would have to lie in bed for many days. In the environment of large-scale infection around me, I continued working as usual. I was able to recover quickly and take care of my family (my family members also recovered soon without taking any medicine). The practitioners in our Fa-study group did not let their children get vaccinated, and the children were all healthy and had completely benefited from Dafa!
During these years of cultivation, I have experienced many miraculous things and seen many miraculous scenes. Once, I came back from work at 11 p.m. I was exhausted and drowsy and wanted to sleep. Suddenly, I remembered that I had not recited “On Dafa” yet, so I decided to read it first before sleeping.
I picked up Zhuan Falun, the main text of Falun Dafa, and read it silently (because I was too tired and not very focused). Suddenly, a shocking scene unfolded: an airtight “wall” suddenly appeared before me. The “wall” was composed of various life forms without any gaps between them. I didn’t know when they had quietly gathered together, standing in front of me so pious and respectful, listening to the Fa. I was shocked! How dare I slack off in front of such a scene?! I woke up instantly. They were so eager to hear the Fa, so I quickly read it out loud. Because of nervousness, I read it haltingly. I cleared my mind and reread it from the beginning, thoughtfully and respectfully.
This experience made me realize that beings in all dimensions are eager to obtain the universal Dafa and listen devoutly. Fellow practitioners, we must not slack off when we study the Fa and we must treat the Fa thoughtfully and respectfully!
During that time, I was having conflicts with my family, work, and fellow practitioners, which was very vexing. But I remembered that I am a Dafa practitioner and must quickly reverse this situation. I realized that nothing I encountered was accidental, and I should look inward. I happened to have a copy of Minghui Weekly, so I flipped through it and saw a passage from a fellow practitioner in an article titled “Talking about Mentality and Dance Training.” It said, “Those who feel they have worked very hard and are extremely tired but believe that others are not good enough and owe them something are in a dangerous state. It is important to look inward. If you feel wronged and dissatisfied, that signals that you are not aligned with the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. That is precisely the aspect you need to address and cultivate away. However, if you do not take this opportunity to look inward and express your dissatisfaction, aren’t you treating negative thoughts as part of yourself and allowing yourself to be disturbed? If this continues, aren’t you being self-defeating and willingly moving toward bad substances that do not qualify to go to the new universe?”
I was shocked and thanked the fellow practitioner for sharing this understanding. This passage hit the nail on the head. I did many things during this period but showed a lot of resentment and dissatisfaction toward my family. I did not pay attention to cultivating my speech when I spoke and insisted on my own ideas, which was inappropriate. Because of prejudice, I could not kindly and in a timely manner remind and help fellow practitioners when encountering problems. I feel deeply ashamed of this! I realized that the unsatisfactory things I encountered recently were all caused by human thoughts and acquired notions. I did not clear them out in time, but nourished them! This is not cultivating well based on the Fa!
Because I could not keep up with studying the Fa, I could not always be immersed in the Fa. When I encountered problems, I was always used to looking at and solving problems with human thoughts and acquired notions, but that was not my true self. Isn’t cultivation about returning to our original nature? How can I forget the heart of cultivation I once had?
After correcting myself based on the Fa, I felt so relaxed. Suddenly, I saw a chubby baby boy running towards Master along a beam of light that led to the celestial body (I knew that the baby boy was me). I saw Master there, smiling and waving at me. I was so happy!
Master compassionately cares for every practitioner. When I cultivated earnestly, I received such encouragement, allowing me to see such an incredible scene.
In my future work, life, and interactions with others, including getting along with fellow practitioners, I will uphold high standards and remove the parts not in line with the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. I will listen to Master’s words, cultivate myself, and follow Master home.
