(Minghui.org) I’m in my 70s and began practicing Falun Dafa in 1996. After beginning cultivation I experienced many sickness karma tests and tribulations. Thanks to Master’s compassion and protection, I have continued to walk on the cultivation path.
I was recently hit by a motorcycle. This was more difficult than any tribulation I had previously experienced, and it took a long time to overcome it. I’d like to take this opportunity of the 23rd China Fahui on Minghui.org to share my cultivation experience with fellow practitioners and report it to Master.
A Sudden Accident
I accompanied my husband for a walk after sending forth righteous thoughts on the evening of October 8, 2025. My husband suffered from multiple chronic diseases so he took a walk every day. He had already crossed the road and was waiting for me on the other side. When I saw the red light on my right side and that the cars were stopped, I quickly crossed the road. When I was nearly on the other side of the road, a motorcycle suddenly approached and hit me.
I was thrown into the middle of the road. My husband hurried over and helped me get up and walk to the side of the road. It was getting dark, but I vaguely saw that the two people who were on the motorcycle were laying on the ground. They were four or five meters away from my right side, and they slowly stood up.
My husband asked if I was okay. He wanted to talk to the person who hit me. I said, “I am okay. Please don’t bring any trouble to them. It was a bit dark and they didn’t see me. They didn’t hit me intentionally. Let’s go.” I thought to myself, “It’s not convenient for me to clarify the truth to them, which is regrettable. I should remember ‘Falun Dafa is good and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good’. I hope that they stay safe and happy.”
While talking to my husband at the accident scene, I felt that the right corner of my mouth was swollen, and I couldn’t speak clearly. I stood up and found that my left knee wasn’t functioning properly and my right knee was bleeding. My pants were wet and hands didn’t function well. I was is great pain. The moment I felt myself falling, I kept saying “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
I didn’t want my husband to know I was injured, so we continued our walk. After a while, my left knee no longer hurt and the right knee had stopped bleeding. But my wrists were in excruciating pain and I felt dizzy. My husband said, “We won’t go to the park. Let’s go home.”
The light was brighter at the crossroad, and he saw that my face was pale and that I was injured. He tried to help me walk. I said, “I’m not sick, you don’t need to help me.” I thought, “I am a Falun Dafa practitioner. This is a test that I must go through. Master is taking care of me.” I repeated “Falun is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” as I walked, and I asked Master to strengthen me. I felt like I was going to pass out, but thanks to Master’s protection, I came home without any drama.
Looking Within and Considering Other People First During Tribulations
I couldn’t sleep that night. My wrists hurt so much that I didn’t know where to put my hands because they were painful in any position. Sweat soaked my hair, shirt, and back. I kept repeating “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” I asked Master to help me.
I wanted to change my clothes and wash them, but I couldn’t open the cupboard to get my clean clothes. I couldn’t wash them by myself either. I couldn’t lift a glass to get water or even lift a piece of tissue. I wanted to listen to the recordings of Master’s lectures, but I couldn’t turn on the player. I wanted to do the exercises but couldn’t move my hands.
This sudden tribulation reminded me that I had omissions in cultivation and needed to look within. I found my attachments, including resentment, seeking comfort, fear of hardships, being attached to myself, and wasting food. My husband bought fruit and vegetables, and when some of them were rotten I threw them away. I didn’t pick out the good ones before throwing them away. I felt he had not bought good quality fruit and vegetables.
I had strong resentment towards my husband for scrolling on his cell phone, watching TV, and not doing any house chores. The old forces took advantage of my attachment and caused me this hardship. If Master hadn’t protected me, I might have died on the spot. I was very thankful to Master for saving me again, and I regretted that I hadn’t been strict with myself or behaved according to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.
I sometimes had to do so many house chores that I didn’t have time to study the Fa. I accompanied my husband to physiotherapy. I used currency bills which had truth-clarifying messages printed on them when I bought groceries, and I clarified the truth to people in the market. I met with other practitioners in the morning, and then returned home to prepare lunch for my husband. He scrolled on his cell phone after a nap in the afternoon while I studied the Fa and did house chores. Sometimes I had so many chores to do that I didn’t have time to study the Fa. I then made it up in the evening.
When I accompanied my husband for a walk for a longer time, I felt tired after we came home. He sat on the sofa watching TV. I then cleaned the kitchen and other rooms. When I picked up Zhuan Falun to study the Fa, I felt so tired that I couldn’t keep my eyes open. I fell asleep while I meditated or sent forth righteous thoughts. I couldn’t change my incorrect state. I hoped that my husband could help do some housework such as taking out the wash, cleaning the rooms, or mopping the floor so that I had time to study the Fa. But he seldom helped. I felt unbalanced and that I was the house maid. My resentment became stronger.
Master said:
“To truly cultivate, you must cultivate your mind. This is called xinxing cultivation.” (Lecture One, Zhuan Falun)
I hadn’t behaved according to Master’s Fa. I admitted my mistakes to Master, “Master, I am wrong. I don’t want to have resentment. I don’t want to fear hardship and hard work. Master, please strengthen me. I will rectify my incorrect state and truly cultivate.” At that moment, I felt Master remove my resentment.
Actually, my husband is kind and responsible. He respects the elderly and looks after the young generation. He lives a frugal life and is not against me practicing Falun Dafa. But he was not used to doing housework. His behavior provided opportunities for me to improve my cultivation, so I should thank him from the bottom of my heart.
I looked within and cultivated my heart. I felt calm, and the pain in my hands lessened. I told my husband at 11 p.m. that I felt better and asked him to go to sleep. He switched off the TV and went to his room.
I started to send forth righteous thoughts with a calm mind. I couldn’t sit with my legs crossed and couldn’t do the hand gestures. I sat up straight and sent forth righteous thoughts. I communicated with the beings in other dimensions who were hurt by me before. I recited Master’s Fa regarding “benevolent solutions.” I hoped that they adopted benevolent solutions and had a good future.
I sent forth strong righteous thoughts to dismantle the old forces’ arrangements and eliminate the dark minions and rotten demons who intended to take advantage of my cultivation omissions to persecute me. I am a Falun Dafa practitioner and I only follow Master’s arrangements. I didn’t accept any other arrangements. I would rectify myself in the Fa if I had omissions. No one deserved to test me or persecute me. Whoever did this was committing a crime.
I started to practice the exercises, and tried my best to do the movements. I couldn’t open the CD player or Dafa books, so I recited Master’s Fa. I had to meditate while sitting on a chair. When I felt very sleepy, I sat on the chair beside my bed with my arms and head on the bed and slept for a little while. That whole night, I did what I could do. I felt better in the morning. My swollen mouth felt normal again.
My husband got up and helped me wash my face and brush my teeth. He asked me to go to the hospital. He said we could ride the subway and he would buy some breakfast. I said, “I can walk with my arms down. I don’t feel very pain though I still can’t do anything. Please give me some time. I don’t need to see the doctor yet. I’m a practitioner and Master takes care of me.” He said firmly, “Give you several days? I will not give you even several hours. You delayed seeing the doctor. We should have gone to the doctor last night. You shouldn’t have let the motorcycle people leave. If you don’t go to the hospital, I will no longer take care of you. You can’t look after yourself. Let’s go and have you checked to see where you were injured.”
He always had the final say in everything, so I knew he wouldn’t easily change his mind. If I insisted on not going to see the doctor, I would hurt his feelings. If my daughter and other family members knew what happened they would support his idea. It was hard for me to clarify the truth to them in the future because everyday people don’t understand how practitioners think.
In order to save my family members and friends and not let them misunderstand Falun Dafa because I didn’t go to see the doctor, I went to the hospital with my husband. After an X-ray, the orthopedic surgeon said that my hands had comminuted fractures. I insisted on not having surgery or taking any medication. The doctor just reset the bones, put them in casts and sent me home.
Believing in Master and the Fa and Not Moved by Illusions
The casts protected my hands, but because they were heavy it was hard for me to practice the exercises and send forth righteous thoughts. The casts had some weight. When I did the second and third sets of exercises, my left hand felt sour and painful, and needed some support from my right hand. But the fingers of my right hand couldn’t be touched. I couldn’t use the fingers of my right hand to turn the pages of the book. I used my right arm to support my left arm. Though it was hard, I practiced the exercises every day.
I recited Master’s Fa:
“When it’s difficult to endure, you can endure it. When it’s impossible to do, you can do it.” (Lecture Nine, Zhuan Falun)
I also recited the poem “Tempering the Will” from Hong Yin while I was doing every movement of the exercises. My family member rang me when they learned that I got up at 3 a.m. every morning to practice the exercises and said, “Your hands have comminuted fractures. Please don’t move them. You’d better rest.” They had good intentions and they were worried about me.
I believed in Master and the Fa and I realized the situation was an illusion. My hands in the other dimension were not injured. Master said that our bodies in other dimensions played the roles when we practiced the exercises. The Minghui website published many sharing articles about passing tests with righteous thoughts. I am a Falun Dafa practitioner. This accident showed that I had omissions in my cultivation, and also indicated that there were elements which wanted to take my life because I owed a life to other people. Master bore most of it for me. I only needed to bear a little bit.
No matter how hard it was, I practiced the exercises, sent forth righteous thoughts, and studied the Fa every day. I went for a check-up two weeks later as advised by the surgeon. The doctor on duty looked at the X-ray and said that the casts were too short and should be extended. Two weeks later after the doctor changed the casts, my fingers kept trembling. I couldn’t turn my hands.
I went to the hospital for another check-up. The doctor found that the bones in both of my wrists were severely displaced (by about two centimeters). He checked the previous X-ray and asked my husband why I didn’t see a doctor immediately, because the injury was serious. I told him that I didn’t want to see a doctor. He noticed that my forearms and fingers were trembling and said, “If you don’t have surgery you might become disabled. Because you waited it’s more difficult to operate. We will put your arm in a cast and see if it helps.” He told my husband that the surgery for one arm would cost 20,000 yuan.
My husband was worried about me and said my arms might be disabled and I Wouldn’t be able to look after myself. The next day, which was in November 2025, he said, “I will prepare 20,000 yuan for surgery on your right arm to prevent it from being disabled.” I firmly believe in Master and the Fa and I knew Master was taking care of me, and my arm would not be disabled. I agreed to go to the hospital for a checkup because I worried that my husband couldn’t bear it. But, I wasn’t up to a practitioner’s standard and I knew I had omissions in my cultivation.
I told my husband, “I used to be sick all the time and I spent a huge amount of money on medications. No doctor or hospital cured my illnesses. Master helped remove all my illnesses after I practiced Falun Dafa. This is my personal experience, and you witnessed it. I went to see the doctor this time because I didn’t want to anger you. We spent time and money, but my arms became worse, so I won’t go to the doctor again. You don’t need to worry that I’ll be disabled. Master is in charge, not the doctor. You can hire a part-time cleaning lady to clean our home. You don’t have time to see the doctor for yourself, because you do all the house chores and you’re also looking after me. You work hard. Please hire a cleaning lady.” He didn’t say anything but he also didn’t ask me to have surgery again.
I was not focused when studying the Fa that afternoon. It took me some time to turn a page because I couldn’t bend my fingers. I knew my cultivation state was not right. This was not arranged by Master. He had extended the time for us to cultivate and save people through his huge suffering. But I was trapped in tribulations. I missed appointments with other practitioners again and again. I couldn’t do the things I should be doing to save sentient beings. I couldn’t practice the exercises or send forth righteous thoughts properly, and I couldn’t look after myself. This was the old forces’ persecution and I knew I shouldn’t acknowledge it.
I pleaded with Master to reset my bones so I could overcome this tribulation. I cried when I thought of my situation. I felt that my hands were frozen and couldn’t move. I also felt pain—I could bear it but I couldn’t move my hands. I realized that Master was resetting my bones. I couldn’t stop my tears and was very thankful to Master.
Two hours passed. My husband called me to have dinner. I came to the dinner table with two arms supporting each other in front of my chest. I sat down and put my arms on the table. Normally I pick up the fork with my left hand. But now I couldn’t move my left hand. My husband didn’t understand so I said, “My hands have been frozen since 3 p.m. Master has been resetting my bones.” If I said something like this before he would have said that I had a mental problem. But that day he was quiet and he silently fed me.
I felt that my hands were released after I finished sending forth righteous thoughts at 6 p.m., and I felt lighter. I opened my laptop (I hadn’t opened it since I fell) and was able to open the Minghui website successfully. I saw Master’s photo and felt so happy, as if I had seen a family member who I hadn’t seen for a long time.
My Cultivation Environment Changed
My fingers didn’t tremble after Master fixed my bones. I could visit the Minghui website myself and I could turn the audio player on and off. My exercise movements became increasingly correct. When I sent forth righteous thoughts, I could hold my forearms at the same level. But I couldn’t keep my hand in position. I couldn’t do the Heshi position correctly. But I could eat and brush my teeth.
I can now do everything by myself. My husband no longer needs to do all the house chores. Going through this tribulation, I cherish even more the time that Master has extended for us via his huge suffering, and I make time to study the Fa every day.
My xinxing has improved. I no longer complain about my husband. Instead I am very thankful to him. He didn’t wash the wok after cooking meals, so I washed it for him quietly. He never cooked anything before. Now he was cooking dishes event though it was not easy for him. He likes to put dried pepper and a lot of lard in vegetables, so I asked him to use less. But he didn’t change. I just smiled. As long as he’s happy, I’m okay.
As my xinxing improved and I no longer had resentment, my husband changed as well. Before when I bought groceries home, he did not help put them away, but now he does. Before I was busy with cooking breakfast after I finished sending forth righteous thoughts. He came to have breakfast after he got up and washed. Now he cooks after I send forth righteous thoughts. Before when I asked him to bring in the washing when it rained, he said, “You don’t need to instruct me to do such trivial things. You can do it yourself.” Now he brings in the wash.
He supported me in cultivation. When I can’t put my legs in the lotus position, he helps me. He helped me to turn on and off the audio player and he charged the player. He waits until I finished sending forth righteous thoughts after midnight and helps me take off my clothes and get in bed before he goes to sleep in his room.
When my friends and relatives called me, I told them my situation so as to let them know how great and miraculous Falun Dafa is and how great Master is. Before my husband stopped me from clarifying the truth to them because he worried that I would bring myself trouble. He saw how the police officers took me from our home and detained me. He couldn’t let go of his fear, so he was frightened when I clarified the truth to people. I avoided doing this in his presence. This time when I told my relatives how miraculous Falun Dafa was in front of him, he didn’t stop me. My home environment improved. I dreamed about this before and now it is a reality.
Thank you, Master! Thank you, fellow practitioners!
