(Clearwisdom.net) Once I was searching for my schoolmate, Shu (alias), on the Internet, when I came across another person called Shu. Even thought he wasn't the person I was looking for, nevertheless, I started to speak to him about Falun Gong. As Shu was nearly blind, I advised him that he could download the audio version of Zhuan Falun to listen to. He took my advice and started to study Zhuan Falun. One day while we were talking on the Internet, he answered a phone call. I heard him say to his friend, "I went to a wedding yesterday and had a couple of drinks." After he hung up the phone, I told him, "Smoking and drinking are no good for one's health and can also become addictive! In the book [Zhuan Falun] Teacher talked about this; I will read the words to you." He answered prudently, "I have studied the book several times. How have I missed this information? It looks like I need to pay more attention when I study the Fa next time, and try to focus on quality instead of quantity." When I first met Shu he was always accessing the Internet early in the morning. However, after he started to practice Falun Gong, he didn't go on the Internet until noontime. Jokingly, I told him that he was slacking off; perhaps overslept. He said, "Before I practiced Falun Gong, I gave people massages until the early in the morning, then I would rest (Shu is a professional masseuse). Now, when I finish my work, I rest for a while and then study the Fa first before I go on the Internet." He said he had already studied Zhuan Falun and Teacher's overseas lectures several times, and felt that he had become a different person.

I asked him, "In what way have you changed?" He said, "Actually, before I met you I considered myself to be depressed. I would often go on the Internet looking for stimulating materials and download some horror stories. Then when we met, you said you're looking for your schoolmate, but nevertheless I continued to talk with you because of your politeness, and because I knew that you're a Falun Gong practitioner. The propaganda on television said that Falun Gong is no good, but I had to find the truth for myself. So, after I initially spoke with you I had a basic understanding. After I studied Zhuan Falun, I found that Falun Gong is truly teaching people how to become good people in accordance with the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. I really thought this was a very good guiding principle. Whether Master Li is willing to recognize me as one of his disciples or not, I have already decided to become a practitioner and started to purify myself and enhance my way of thinking." I just kept smiling while I listened to his story.

So that we could communicate better on the Internet, Shu installed a camera onto his computer. It was a difficult process to make it operate properly, but with persistence we both believed that it would work. And, eventually I could see him clearly.

At first, I only taught him the second set of exercises, "Falun Standing Stance," as he was always busy in his shop and never had time to learn the other exercises. He told me that he worried about this too and was eager to learn the rest of the exercises. During the Chinese New Year holidays, I seized the opportunity to teach Shu the other exercises using the camera that we had set up. I would first explain how to do the exercises, then Shu would do the movements while I watched on the camera and corrected him verbally where necessary. Slowly, he followed my instructions and started doing the exercise, "Buddha Showing a Thousand Hands."

He told me that when he listened to the audio version of the book, "The Great Consummation Way of Falun Dafa," he couldn't follow the instructions. But, when I explained the movements to him, he soon understood and performed them accurately. We thought it to be an amazing phenomenon! Clearly, Shu must have had help from higher beings! Whenever he was ready to learn a new movement, I usually had him begin from the first movement in that exercise. After he had learned all the movements of "Buddha Showing a Thousand Hands," he was completely familiar with the entire exercise. We were both very happy and touched because we live a great distance apart and have experienced these miracles together. We must have had this predestined chance to meet each other. I am especially touched that we had overcome these barriers and that I was able to help him with this almost impossible task.

When I e-mailed the exercise music to him, through practice, Shu can now follow all the movements to the exercise music. He told me that when he exercises, he feels the heat flow between his palms and feels very comfortable. I again urged him to listen to the book, "The Great Consummation Way of Falun Dafa," as the meaning on the book will be different from the first time he read it, and he could make sure all his movements were performed correctly.

By the morning of the lunar New Years Day, Shu had learned the third set of exercises amidst the din of the firecrackers outside. As I was teaching Shu the fourth set of exercises, "Falun Heavenly Circuit" I had to stop for a moment and think about how to talk him through the next movement. Shu waited quietly and patiently, and like before, he grasped the concepts very quickly.

I believe the hand movements for the 5th set of exercises, "Strengthening Divine Powers" are more difficult to grasp, even when teaching the person face to face. But when I taught Shu, all I had to do was give him the instructions once and he managed all the movements correctly. He never ceased to amaze me. By 1:00 a.m the next morning Shu had finally learned all five sets of exercises. He told me, "If only I have met you six or seven years ago, I wouldn't have to live through such a chaotic and desolate life!" The entire learning process was so smooth, like a miracle!

Shu said, "When I read the first lecture of Zhuan Falun Teacher talked a lot about the mysteries of the universe. I wish I could have invited people to come and study it with me. The ironic thing is, when people can't see, they don't believe it! The more I read studied, the more it broadened my perspective of life and answered many questions that I always had. This New Year, I that felt everything in my life was finally balanced with a feeling of inner peace and tranquility, which I have not experienced for many years. My friends asked me if I was lonely celebrating the New Year by myself. I told them no! This year my mood is unprecedentedly tranquil!" Shu is now preparing a voice recording to tell all his friends about why his mind is at peace.

Shu continued, "Now, whenever I encounter tribulations, I remind myself that my behavior is not in accordance with the Fa. In the past, I lived a very complicated life. That was why I would look for stimulation and download horror stories from the Internet, when my mood was low. However, now I know that my life experience is a result of my past wrongdoings and so I am faced with the karmic retribution. From now on, I will diligently practice to purify myself. I am so grateful to Teacher and for all the help Xiao Xiao has given me." I smiled and said, "No need to thank me. Perhaps I had promised to help you in a previous life. All things are arranged. We should thank our Teacher for his teachings!"

At that moment, I was so grateful! If anyone wants to learn, they will all have this kind of predestined chance! No one will be left behind!

Shu said earnestly, "Don't you worry; I now have found what I really want in life!" I do believe him because several years ago, I also had such a feeling. Since becoming a Falun Dafa practitioner I have truly felt so fortunate to receive the Fa and sincerely treasure it! I hope that many more predestined people will be as fortunate as I am to enter into the Fa and practice Falun Gong!
