(Minghui.org) I am a Falun Dafa practitioner who started cultivation in 2006. My experience of learning Falun Dafa itself is a miracle.
My son started practicing Falun Dafa in 1998 but often slacked off. One weekend in July 2006, he went to an Internet bar, where he browsed some unhealthy websites. He felt unwell as soon as he stepped out of the building. By the time he returned home, he had a fever of 40 ºC (104 ºF) and was red all over. He lay in bed for three days, didn't eat or drink anything, and couldn't open his eyes. I told him to go to the hospital to get an injection, but he knew that it wasn't a typical illness. He was aware of his mistake and was determined not to go to the hospital. I suddenly thought of the precious book Zhuan Falun and had a feeling that it would help if I read the book to him. I started reading Zhuan Falun from the very beginning.
Even from two inches away, I could feel the heat being emitting from him. At first, he could hardly hear what I was reading, but after about ten minutes, he started correcting my misreadings from time to time (it was the first time I'd read the Dafa book). I remember clearly that after about 40 minutes, when I was on page 32, he suddenly got up and said, “Mom, I'm OK now.” His eyes were wide open. I touched his skin and realized that his fever was gone. I went to the kitchen and fetched a full bowl of rice for him. He ate it all and asked for more. That suddenly, he was completely fine. That same night he taught me how to send righteous thoughts. This was the first time I witnessed the miracle of Dafa. As a result, I started practicing Falun Dafa.
As soon as I started cultivation, Teacher cleaned out my body, and all my health problems disappeared. I often felt Falun rotating in my face, arms, and legs. Many symptoms, such as headaches, leg pain, ear discharge, and hearing loss, disappeared. The back pain that had tortured me for over 20 years also disappeared soon after I started cultivating.
New Practitioners Come
I clarified the facts about Falun Dafa to many people living in our community, and two of them started practicing. Their Celestial Eyes were open, and one practitioner saw wonderful scenery in other dimensions on the fourth day after starting to practice. He later saw Bodhisattvas and Daos flying back and forth, as well as spectacular galaxies.
The other new practitioner was an older man who had practiced other schools of qigong for many years. He was quite well-known in our area and had cured diseases for many people. He was also a renowned fortuneteller. He also had the supernormal ability of clairvoyance. After he started practicing Falun Dafa last year, he found answers to many questions that had puzzled him for years.
He told me that, when he was practicing his previous school of qigong, someone with his appearance would suddenly leave his body. That person went to a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, where an old man with a white beard met him and taught him to do exercises. He practiced like this for several hours a day. At that time he thought it was he himself who was practicing cultivation. After learning Dafa, he knew that it was his Assistant Spirit who was practicing. When he cured diseases for so many people over the years, it was his Assistant Spirit who helped him do it. The situation was exactly the same as what Teacher described in Zhuan Falun.
After he began practicing Dafa, he saw shining golden Buddhas appearing in front of him. He also saw Teacher's fashen next to him, smiling and protecting him. He told me that the face of Teacher's fashen looked exactly the same as Teacher himself--bright and pure, wearing a golden robe, and with blue curly hair.
He now knows that Falun Dafa is a true science and that, because the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) committed the unpardonable crime of persecuting Falun Dafa, only those who withdraw from the Party and its affiliated organizations can survive in the coming retributions. He has actively tried to persuade people to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations and has successfully helped more than 100 people quit in a very short period of time. He has a good reputation in the community, and many people in our area knew that he had been practicing qigong for about 30 years before finally practicing Falun Dafa. As a result, many people have learned the facts about Dafa and believe in Dafa.
Miraculous Events
I once heard that my niece's son had levitated inside his mosquito net while he was reciting Teacher's Hong Yin. He got scared when his head touched the top of the netting, so he came down. This occurred three times.
I met a woman on another occasion who said that someone had told her the facts about Dafa and that she had quit the Party, but she had never seen the Shen Yun DVD. I asked for her address and promised to deliver her a copy. She gladly accepted. When I told her that she would be blessed by often reciting, “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” she said she would do so. Later, I delivered a copy of the DVD to her. The next time I met her, as soon as she saw me, she hugged me and said, “Dafa is so miraculous!” She told me about changes that had occurred in her after she watched the Shen Yun DVD. She had had trouble hearing for a period of time, so she had gone to see a doctor, who could not find the problem. She was a massage therapist and tried massaging herself, but to no avail. After she watched the Shen Yun DVD twice, a hard substance fell out of each ear, and she could then hear clearly! It was really miraculous! She also successfully persuaded her friends to quit the Party.
I found 49 udumbara flowers in June 2011, blossoming on the window of the room where I kept Teacher's portrait. Those white flowers are still there. I think Teacher is encouraging me in this way.
Actually, many more miracles have happened to me and around me, but I will not mention them all. I have not cultivated for long and still have many shortcomings. I will study the Fa more often, constantly improve my xinxing, catch up with veteran practitioners, cherish the opportunities, and become a true Dafa practitioner in the Fa-rectification period.
