(Minghui.org) After I read the Minghui Editorial, “Call for Articles to Commemorate World Falun Dafa Day: Share the Beauty of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance,” I began reflecting on my experiences—how I assimilated to Falun Dafa’s teachings and eliminated my human notions. I had a few tentative ideas, and I asked Master Li to give me wisdom and a pure heart to write down these stories. Falun Dafa gave me so much, physically and spiritually, that I want people to know how wonderful Dafa is.
The writing process was smooth, but not easy. When I recalled my efforts to follow the divine path instead of human notions, I once again had the feeling Master mentioned, “After passing the shady willow trees, there will be bright flowers and another village ahead!” (Lecture Nine, Zhuan Falun).
I struggled and wanted to give up, but I knew those thoughts came from my attachments, not my true self. So I persisted and completed the article. I felt it was another round of purification and cleansing from Master.
I’m grateful to Master for showing me Dafa and looking after me on my cultivation journey. Master eliminated my huge karma and human attachments. So for me, the process of writing the article is a cultivation opportunity. When I recall all the experiences I wrote about, I gained a new understanding. Those tribulations might have seemed complicated when I was experiencing them, but compared to my entire cultivation journey, they were nothing and my heart was filled with gratitude.
The process of writing about my experiences increased my compassion and strengthened my righteous thoughts. I know this will prepare me to do better as I walk the next chapter of my cultivation journey.
The submission deadline is April 15. Let us make the best use of this opportunity and leave no regrets on our cultivation paths.
