(Minghui.org) Life meant suffering to me. I was on medications all the time but did not get any better. I suffered from severe hemorrhoids, neurasthenia, hypoglycemia, and irregular menstruation.
Then, in March 1999, I started to practice Falun Dafa.
It was my mother who brought home a copy of Zhuan Falun. I had no interest in reading it; I did not believe I could be healed by reading a book. So, I left it on my bedside table. Occasionally, I would read several pages before I went to sleep. I read it on and off.
However, by the time I reached Lecture Four, my hemorrhoids disappeared, and I slept well. Then I noticed my menstruation had improved. I was very excited and amazed by the power of Falun Dafa. My perspective on life changed, as well.
I used to be aggressive. After practicing Falun Dafa, I learned many principles of how to be a good person.
Master said:
"In cultivation practice, there may be two scenarios when dealing with specific conflicts or when others treat you badly. One is that you might have treated this person badly in your previous life. You feel in your heart that it is unfair, 'How can this person treat me like this?' Then why did you treat this person that way in the past? You might claim that you actually did not know it at that time, and this life has nothing to do with the other life. That does not work." (Lecture Four, Zhuan Falun)
Putting the Great Law into Practice
I tried to put these principles into practice. When I met people or was at work, I made sure I behaved according to these principles. I continually worked at changing myself.
I was a supervisor and allocated jobs to over 50 people. I had to make sure everyone was on the right track, and keep the workplace neat and tidy. When I was rough and aggressive in the way I managed them, the results weren't good, and there were often conflicts.
After I began to practice Falun Dafa, I changed. I put myself in their shoes and arranged the extra shifts for them fairly. I would help them solve their problems patiently, and I even shared my bonus with everyone. Everyone got along well, worked efficiently, and monitored themselves. Our boss was very happy with us. When my team saw how different I was, they said that Falun Dafa had changed me.
Before the persecution started on July 20, 1999, I was not diligent. I thought I had plenty of time in the future to study the Fa. Then the persecution started, and I realized how much time I had lost.
I was not scared of the persecution, because deep down in my heart I had a strong sense of responsibility. I started my cultivation in the Fa-rectification period quickly. I told people about Falun Dafa whenever I had the chance during the day. At night I joined a Fa-study group, and then went out to distribute flyers and put up posters and messages to tell people about Falun Dafa and the persecution.
I would like to share some of the many amazing incidents from the past decade of my cultivation.
Two Miles by Bicycle in 5 Minutes
Master said:
“When a practitioner does something specific, it is his or her supernormal abilities that do the work.” (Lecture Nine, Zhuan Falun)
One winter morning, I left home at 5:50 a.m. to put up a “Falun Dafa is good” banner. I went early to avoid rush hour traffic, and I rode my bicycle to a small bridge while sending forth righteous thoughts. I tossed one end of the banner onto a tree near the bridge, but the banner failed to catch. I tried it twice, but with no success. In my heart I asked Master for help. The banner then caught on the tree and hung perfectly.
I thanked Master, then rode back. I got home just in time to send righteous thoughts at 5:55 a.m. When I asked my husband how far I had gone, he said that it was about two miles there. When I told him that I finished it in 5 minutes on my bicycle, he did not believe it and said that it was impossible. But I knew that Master let me witness the miraculousness of Falun Dafa.
Staying Dry in the Rain
Once, I finished work at about 6 p.m. It was time to send forth righteous thoughts, so I started doing so while on my scooter. Black clouds covered the sky, and there was a strong wind. I was going very fast.
It began to pour. The wind was so strong that pedestrians had trouble walking; others got off their scooters to push them. I did not have a problem, and, furthermore, I remained dry—even without a raincoat. When I got home, the streets in the neighborhood were flooding. Seeing the pouring rain and feeling my dry clothes, I knew I had once again witnessed a miracle of Falun Dafa.
Dissolving Sickness Karma with Compassion
I once noticed I had a boil. I thought it was interference—that it interfered with me saving sentient beings. I did not acknowledge it and tried to dissolve it with compassion according to Master's Fa.
I sent out one pure righteous thought to dissolve it, and the next day the boil disappeared. With this, I only became more determined in cultivation.
I've had many other similar experiences. I share them so that others, too, will know how extraordinary Falun Dafa is and how massive Master's saving grace is.
