(Clearwisdom.net) Recalling Master's protection on our cultivation path, we are immensely grateful.
The Magical Key
My wife and I obtained the Fa at the same time in 1997. Since then, studying the Fa and practicing the exercises has been the most important thing for us every day. We practiced the exercises in the park daily at 4:50 am rain or shine. Every day, my wife and I went to the park ahead of time to ask the park administrator to open the gate. We cleaned up the site and hung banners. Park hours were from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm. The administrator lived nearby. My wife and I usually went there at 4:00 am to ask him to open the gate, which interfered with his sleep. In order not to affect his schedule, after discussion with him, he agreed to give us a key and let us be responsible for opening the gate.
One morning, we followed our regular routine and practiced the exercises with fellow practitioners in the park. While we were doing the meditation exercise, the administrator came over in anger, "How did you come in? Did you climb the wall?" I said, "We came in from the gate. You gave me a key!" The administrator was not convinced, "That is not right. Yesterday, we changed all the locks. How could you open the lock with the old key?" I handed over my key to him. He tried the key on the lock and could not open it. I then noticed that the locks indeed were changed, but I did not see that at all when I came in. I just used the old key and the gate opened as usual. I realized what had happened. At that moment, no matter how the administrator blamed me, I just smiled and was thanking Master in my heart.
Master Protecting My Wife Going Home
One early morning in March 2004, my wife went to distribute truth clarification materials alone. She fell, was in pain and could not move. She immediately realized: "This is the old forces interfering with me saving sentient beings. What I owe, I will repay, but I completely negate the old forces' interference. I will continue to clarify the facts and do more with diligence." She was trying to stand up, but she could not move.
She realized that it was 4:00 am and pretty soon there would be people on the streets. She thought to herself, "What should I do? I can not let people see me like this. Master, please strengthen me. I need to go home before dawn." After this thought, immediately, she felt as if somebody pushed her, she started crawling forward. She crawled faster and faster as she went. She kept saying, "Master, please slow down." Before she realized, she already reached our residential area. She then crawled up the stairs and arrived home.
The Evil Banner Disappeared
A couple of days prior to July 20, 2006, several dozen banners slandering Dafa appeared on the streets in my city to poison people passing by. Fellow practitioners became worried and started sending forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil.
I had a thought, "Dafa is to save sentient beings. The perpetrators controlled by the evil are people too. They did this merely because they were controlled by the old forces without understanding the truth. If they could use the human approaches to slander Dafa and poison people, why can't practitioners use human approaches to stop the evil people's criminal activities?" I then thought about taking the evil banners down.
I immediately acted. The same night, I went with a fellow practitioner. We individually took down the ones that were easy to remove. Then we worked together to remove the more difficult ones. It was raining that night. There were not too many people on the street, so it went very smoothly. When we reached the hotel, we felt the challenge upon us. There was a huge banner hanging up high on two huge electric poles that were only 20 meters away from the hotel gate, where several dozen cars including police cars were parked. There were hotel security officers by the gate. It seemed that it would be a very difficult task to take off that banner. We would have to climb up the poles in order to take the banner down, but we did not know when the security officers and police would appear to get into their cars. We sent forth righteous thoughts and decided to clean up other places first before coming back here again. After another hour of work, we returned at midnight. Surprisingly, the banner was gone when we were back. We thought, "It must have been other practitioners who did it." We admired the fellow practitioners' courage and wisdom. The next day, we asked around and realized that the other practitioners were all at home sending forth righteous thoughts. Nobody actually went there.
It turned out that Master protected us because that night, the evil was having a conference in that hotel planning another round of persecution of Falun Gong. It was Master who helped remove the danger for us.
We Became Invisible to the Evil
One night in August 2007, my wife and I took the train to another city to distribute Falun Gong materials. It was 1am when we got there. We walked along the streets to distribute the materials and it went smoothly. Two hours later, we suddenly realized that there were two people following us. We did not know at all when they had started to follow us, so we became nervous all of a sudden. It was already too late to try to avoid them, so we had to move forward. We started walking fast. There were very few people on the streets. It was very bright with all the street lights and everything was very clear within 100 meters' range. Most of the stores were closed. After walking for quite a while, we were still not able to find any good hiding places. We sent forth righteous thoughts and asked Master to strengthen us. Luckily, there was a factory within ten meters' range that had its gate open, so we went inside. But we were not familiar with the environment and we could not immediately find any hiding places. It was very bright as well, so we had to turn around and go back. We had a thought, "Master, please protect us and let us be invisible to the evil."
As we were walking back, the two followers entered the gate. They were walking in and we were walking out. I was carrying the plastic bag with truth clarification materials and holding my wife's hand walking out of the gate as if nobody was around. Miraculously, they did not seem to see us at all and went straight into the factory. We walked really fast after we got out of the factory. When we turned around to look, we saw the two of them leaving the factory, but they were not able to reach us any longer. We got rid of the danger with Master's protection.
