(Clearwisdom.net) I accidentally fell in the summer of 1998. Afterwards, my legs were so swollen that I could not walk. After getting treatment from various medical experts and undergoing various tests and examinations such as NMR, I was diagnosed as having an injured knee meniscus. My meniscus had to be replaced and the surgery would cost at least 130,000 to 140,000 yuan. For me, that was an astronomical figure. Since I could not afford the surgery, I had no other choice but to get physical therapy in the hospital and suffer through the pain at home.
One day, a friend who was visiting me said, “Now everyone is practicing Falun Gong. It is really miraculous. Why don't you try it? The book Zhuan Falun and the cassette tapes are sold in bookstores. You can buy them and try it out. If you wish to practice Falun Gong, then call me and I'll ask my colleague to teach you the exercises.” So I asked my family to go to the bookstore and buy Zhuan Falun.
The first time I held Zhuan Falun in my hands and read it, I felt that my body was going through physical therapy. I kept reading every day. On the fourth day, my knees felt warm and painful, and I felt waves of a hot, swelling feeling. Each day as I kept studying the Fa, the swelling in my legs slowly went away. Each time after I read, I felt less pain. I slowly tried to walk, and was amazed to find that I could walk! I immediately called a practitioner to teach me the exercises. After a month, my legs fully recovered, so I went back to work. The leaders at my work place and my colleagues were very surprised and asked, “Didn't you need surgery to repair a bad meniscus? How did you fix it? How were you able to come back to work so quickly?” I immediately said, “I did it by practicing Falun Gong!” Three months later, we had physical exams at my work place. The head of my work place specifically asked me to do an NMR exam. The result indeed showed that a miracle happened. The doctor asked me whether I brought the wrong film because the exam showed that my meniscus was never bad at all. So I gave him the old film which showed the bad meniscus. The doctor was still skeptical and asked me which doctor had done the initial evaluation. I said, “It was Director Wang.” He then called Director Wang. Dr. Wang came over after hearing the background. He looked at the film, then looked at me and kept saying, “Magical! It's magical!”
In the winter of 2003, I went by bus to a neighboring county to deliver truth-clarifying materials. I brought a large suitcase with me. Since the luggage compartment was full, I had to place the suitcase next to the driver. At a busy intersection, the police stopped the bus and said they needed to check all of the luggage. A policeman reached out to my suitcase. I immediately thought, these materials are for saving sentient beings, and nobody should interfere with them. Instantly a miracle happened: I saw golden light emitting from the suitcase and the policeman pulled his hands back.
There is a subdivision in my city that is strictly monitored. Every time I go there I send forth the strong righteous thought: “The electronic monitors are only for watching bad people. I am a Dafa disciple and a most righteous being. You cannot monitor me.” The video surveillance administrator told a practitioner who lives in the subdivision, “My monitors go bad periodically.” It turned out that the times they went bad were exactly the times when I delivered truth-clarification materials. Master said:
“What's happening is that the cosmos is going through Fa-rectification. [What is taking place in] the human world is merely how low-level beings act when gigantic cosmic bodies are being impacted by the Fa-rectification. What could human beings possibly do to gods? If there were no outside factors, would humans dare to do anything to gods?” (“In Fa-Rectification Your Thoughts Have to be Righteous, Not Human”)
One day I cut my hand when I was in a hurry to cook a meal. I cried out and saw that one of my fingers was cut in half with only a little skin still attached. My family urged me to go to the hospital immediately. I said I was okay, I just needed a band-aid. But I could not bear the extreme pain. I was feeling a huge headache and nausea, plus chills and shivering. Then I immediately started a dialogue with the being in my hands, “I'm sorry. It was my attachment to doing things that hurt you. Please forgive me and harmonize with me. We are one body and we are both beings selected by Master.” Before I finished my words, the symptoms all disappeared. The next day, a fellow practitioner said there was a practitioner who was persecuted into having a heart attack by the evil in a prison and almost died. That practitioner was in critical condition again, and was now in the emergency room. I prepared to go to the hospital. After the fellow practitioner left, I asked Master to help me, as I could not help the practitioner with my finger looking like that. The next day before I went to the hospital I peeled off the band-aid, and a miracle had happened again: My cut finger had grown back together. The cut wound was only a red mark. In the hospital I shared my experience from the perspective of the Fa with the hospitalized practitioner. He immediately experienced a huge change. Two days later when I went to see him again, the doctor said he had already recovered and left the hospital. I went to his home and found that he was completely fine. He said he had looked inward and identified his fundamental attachments, which were resentment and marital sentiments.
Looking back at my cultivation path, I was able to come through relatively smoothly under Master's care. Each step of the way, we must not stray from the Fa, as we are powerless without the Fa.
Because from the surface it appears that I had relatively few tribulations, I unconsciously developed a certain mentality during the process of collaborating with fellow practitioners to save sentient beings: I felt that I had cultivated myself better than others. Especially in 2010 when the 610 Office in my city was arresting practitioners, ransacking homes and sabotaging truth-clarifying material production centers, I had conflicts with some coordinators, but failed to look inward. Due to the increase in the quantity of the materials needed and having to take care of my parents who were in the hospital, I had less time to study the Fa. I could not calm down while doing the exercises or studying the Fa. Gradually human notions and attachments to fame, profit and sentiment gained the upper hand. I also developed the attachment of zealotry after listening to fellow practitioners compliments. Thus, I unwittingly strayed from the Fa.
My cultivation state was no longer stable. One day, I rode my electric bike to handle some business. Going down a wide road I suddenly felt the bike tilt sideways and then I lost consciousness. I did not know how long I was unconscious before I gradually woke up. I momentarily did not know who I was or where I was. I only felt pain all over my body and I could not move my shoulders. After a while I slowly remembered my home phone number. I called home and after a few minutes someone from my family came. After seeing how bad I looked, they said, “Let's go to the hospital right now!” I said firmly, “No, I'm not going to a hospital. Let's go home.” After taking a closer look at home I found bumps on my head, and my shoulders were significantly out of alignment. I had multiple injuries to my legs as well. My family again asked me to go to the hospital. I said, “Please don't worry. Please play the videos of Master's lectures.” While I was watching the video, Master purified my body. I heard my bones making sounds as they were being adjusted and a heat current running through my body. I felt burst after burst of sensations including pain, swelling, electricity and feelings like acupuncture. My body recovered quickly. On the fourth day, as I was watching Master's lectures, I suddenly felt like a heavy armor broke away from my body and I felt an unbelievable lightness. I burst into tears, and said, “Master, I failed to do well and became a burden to you.”
During this process I kept looking inward. I realized that the most fundamental reason for this persecution was because the evil took advantage of my attachments. I still had a lot of human notions and my first thought was not on the Fa when I encountered things. This showed me that when we stray from the Fa, Master won't be able to protect us. After I found these fundamental attachments, I rooted them out and completely disintegrated them. I recovered almost completely after I finished watching the all of the nine lecture videos. With Master's beneficent care, I continued to study the Fa, do the exercises, assemble truth-clarifying materials and send forth righteous thoughts. The injury I sustained would take an ordinary person months of hospitalization. But as a Dafa practitioner I recovered in little more than ten days. Thank you Master!
