(Clearwisdom.net) Looking back over the twelve years of my cultivation, I have really been staggering and tumbling along. However, I want to share my experiences from the perspective of what Master has given to me.
Starting from July 20, 1999, Jiang Zemin employed the power of the Chinese Communist Party to attack Falun Gong. He defamed Master and Dafa, and lied to the world's people. His lies were all over the place. As a Dafa disciple, I should seek justice for Master and to restore the reputation of Dafa. Several fellow practitioners and I went to Beijing and were stopped at the railway station. Later on at my workplace, I was monitored. At midnight on December 21 of the same year, I left home and went by myself to Beijing to appeal for and to validate Dafa. I was detained at the Tiananmen Police Substation. My workplace's local office in Beijing sent a vehicle, and I was put in the trunk of that vehicle. At the local office, because of the happy expression on my face, they pushed me into the courtyard, where I was frozen for the whole afternoon. Usually I was most scared of the cold, and on that day, it was especially cold; however, I did not feel cold at all. Master blocked the part of myself that fears cold. It was really so. I did not feel cold at all.
On April 22, 2000, in order to validate Dafa, a fellow practitioner and I went to Beijing again. The moment we went into Tiananmen Square, the two of us were forcefully dragged by the police to the police vehicle. There were two fellow practitioners who came from Henan Province, and two others from Heilongjiang Province. The two policemen who were inside the vehicle were very cruel in beating people. One of them was so tired after beating us that he fell down. I was also beaten and I fell down. This time when I came home, they stopped my pension. Two months later, I told the supervisor at my workplace that I would go to Beijing to beg for food. Thus, they finally gave me part of my living expenses. In May, the same year that Master published "The Knowing Heart" on the Minghui website, I was extremely encouraged. I knew I was correct in walking my own path. I went two more times to Beijing to validate Dafa, and each time I had a different experience.
In November 2001, my children and I went to Tianjin to visit my family. When I was clarifying the truth to people on the street, I was reported to the police, who illegally detained me at the police substation, the public security bureau, and the Drug Rehabilitation Center. All the while, I used Master's Fa, "My roots are all deeply planted in the universe, and if someone could affect you, he could affect me, and to put it directly, he'd be able to affect the universe." (Zhuan Falun) to calm my mind. At the time, I truly feared nothing.
At noon on the same day, there were over twenty people waiting for me at home for a family gathering. I would not allow this situation to affect my mind. I did not think of anything. At the police substation, there were continuously five policemen who asked me to tell them my name and address. I chose not to cooperate with them by saying nothing. One of the policemen told me as a threat: "Auntie, you are right to say nothing. You should hold on to the last minute," and so on. I still stayed calm and collected. They took me up to the police vehicle that headed for the police substation. In the afternoon, I was again sent to the Drug Rehabilitation Center, where the section chief and some other official came to talk to me several times. They said they would not stand for it if I did not give in. I did not know whether I would make it out of there or not. I thought only: I came here to save you. I felt very strong energy. It is Master who strengthened me. On the tenth day, I was released. In fact, they did not truly release me. I was followed by a dozen people. It is Master who protected me. Half a day later, I was freed. This incident had a great impact on my family, those around me, and my workplace.
"With Teacher guiding the voyage, the Fa saves all beings, One sail is hoisted, one hundred million sails follow."("The Knowing Heart", Essentials for Further Advancement II ) I am a Dafa disciple. I am one of the one hundred million sails. In order to save sentient beings, my fellow practitioners and I distribute flyers and hang our hand-made banners. I have used as much as eight hundred yards of silk fabric to make them. Once, I checked the road in the daytime and then at night, and I rode my bike to a railway bridge in a suburban area to hang two big banners. On the way back, I kept reciting the Fa, and I was not interfered with. I later learned that people said it must have been done by two young men. They never suspected that it was done by an old lady over sixty years old.
Later on I bought a copy machine to prepare truth-clarifying materials. I also learned how to use a computer. For the past two years, an old lady like myself has done this on her own. In order to save more sentient beings, the material centers are everywhere, and I am also one of them.
The above is only a summary of what has taken place, and there is much more. Only Dafa practitioners have dared to do all of these kinds of things. These are the magical things which have happened on my path to godhood, and it is the manifestation of the mighty power of Dafa. Had I not assimilated to Dafa, these things wouldn't have happened, and I wouldn't have made it. Without Dafa, there is nothing.
