(Clearwisdom.net) I began practicing Falun Dafa about one year ago. With the support of other practitioners, I read all the Dafa books and made up my mind to cultivate Dafa to the end. I have never slacked off in studying the Fa and practicing the exercises. During the course of my cultivation, I eliminated fear and other attachments and kept improving my xinxing. Master Li is always taking care of me, and I appreciate Master saving me from the bottom of my heart. Cultivation has allowed me to obtain a new life and experience the power of Dafa! I would now like to share my experiences with Master and my fellow practitioners.
Falun Dafa Saved My Family
I had big attachments to fame and profit before I started practicing. I was also strongly attached to competitiveness. I thought that it wouldn't do if I was worse-off than others. I put a lot of weight into wanting to earn more money, and that made my life become very bitter and tiring. My mother and father, along with my parents-in-law, all needed me to care for them. I have quite a few siblings, but they all lived out of town. Therefore, everyone relied on me to deal with all of the big and small matters in their lives. My parents and parents-in-law all had bad tempers. Whenever they were unhappy, they either lost their tempers or just stared at me. Sometimes they verbally abused me. I tried very hard to cope with the situation, but I was often unsuccessful and ended up in tears. It was so tiring. I had thoughts of taking my own life, and that it might end my suffering. But after looking at my young son and daughter, I knew I couldn't do such a thing. Meanwhile, my son was not good. Due to the degenerative influences of the communist party culture and bad social phenomena, he was not polite to me or my husband, and did not behave reasonably. If we didn’t do something his way, he would not let the matter go. Seeing my son act like this, I felt that my life was terrible, but there was no one to complain to. My husband was so mad with our son that he chose to leave home and work out of town.
So much stress in my life led to me to develop a variety of illnesses. Although I was only in my forties, I experienced backaches, dizziness, and poor eyesight. I had trouble reading books. I also developed several women’s diseases. With all sorts of ailments, I felt my ability to cope with suffering had reached the limit.
However, after I had the great fortune to obtain Dafa and begin cultivating, I understood what life was meant to be. Through studying Dafa, I understood that as a practitioner I needed to cultivate my xinxing, and that whenever conflicts arise, we must look inward. After cultivating for several months, my body experienced major changes. All of my illnesses disappeared! I looked younger than before, with a healthy glow on my face, and my mood was always light and pleasant. My son followed in my footsteps and also began cultivating in Falun Dafa. At first he only did the exercises and ignored studying the Fa. He also didn’t cultivate his xinxing. Fellow practitioners talked with him about these things, to help him realize the importance of studying the Fa, and he was later able to catch up. Through his Fa study, he changed. My son no longer lost his temper so easily, and he eliminated the bad habits he previously had. It is Dafa that changed him!
Master Takes Care of Us All the Time
One day this past January, we rented a truck to transport some goods we had bought from out of town. On the way back home, the road was not open due to the construction of a bridge. Our truck was stuck in the middle of a temporary, steep road, and it was very dangerous. All the people at the site were stunned, and the driver was even more fearful. Although I had not been practicing for very long, I knew immediately that I should ask Master for help. I then asked the driver to drive the truck in reverse down the hill. The driver stepped on the accelerator and the truck moved steadily backwards as if there was something pulling it. After we arrived safely, the others seemed surprised. I knew Master was protecting us. We then drove forward, but didn’t know the right direction to go. At that moment, a person came by and said, “Pick me up and give me a ride and I will show you the way.” He directed us from the muddy country road to the highway. Without his help, we would not have known where to go. Again, I knew it was Master who arranged everything for us.
This autumn, my parents checked into the hospital one after the other. My father had an enlarged prostrate and lost the ability to control his bowels and bladder. Several days later, he was diagnosed with terminal cancer. During those days, my whole family was in a panic and felt hopeless. My mother was very worried. My siblings came back one by one from out of town. Upon seeing my father mumble and lose consciousness, my younger brother came to hug my father and cried. Everyone else began shedding tears. Later, they looked toward me. I walked up and spoke into my father’s ear, "Dad, please sincerely recite 'Falun Dafa is good', and 'Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good'." The rest of my family spoke out loud along with me, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” After doing this, a miracle occurred-- my father woke up from his unconscious state and started to speak! After he was released from the hospital, I played Master’s lectures on DVD and got all of my family to watch. Several days later, my father returned to the hospital for a checkup and was told that the cancer had disappeared. The doctors said that it was amazing!
My entire family witnessed the power of Dafa through my father's miraculous recovery. My father, mother, brother, sister-in-law, and two sisters have now all begun practicing Falun Dafa. My parents can't read, so they use an MP3 player to listen to Master’s lectures. The others each got a copy of Zhuan Falun. I helped them quit the Chinese Communist Party, the Young Pioneers, and the Youth League. My daughter, who works in a distant town, also quit the CCP and expressed her wish to study Dafa. My husband too came to understand the goodness of Dafa, and began to practice. My entire family wants to express our appreciation to Master! We will cultivate ourselves well, and save more sentient beings to show our gratitude.
My family thanks Master for his mercy in saving us! Thank you fellow practitioners!
