(Minghui.org) When I watched the New Tang Dynasty (NTD) TV series “Whispering Life,” a series about witnessing Dafa's miracles, sometimes I couldn't help but burst into tears.
They reminded me of some of the wonderful things I experienced after I obtained Dafa.
Practicing the Exercises Barefoot on a Concrete Floor in Winter
My sister brought me a revised copy of Falun Gong one night in the early winter of 1993.
She held the book in both hands and said, “This gong is miraculous, extremely miraculous! It teaches people how to improve their moral standards and physical health.”
She said it so solemnly and with such a sense of conviction, and her eyes shone so brightly. These subtle feelings touched me, and I decided to take a look at the book.
When I read it, an extremely powerful thought came to my mind: “I want to practice this!”
It was late November, winter in the northeast. There was no Falun Gong practice site near my home and I couldn't find anyone to teach me the exercises.
My sister lived far away, and transportation was very inconvenient. I could only learn the exercises by following the instructions and Master’s teaching chart in the book of Falun Gong.
The floor of my house was concrete. When I started to practice the exercises, my feet were hot and I couldn’t wear slippers or socks.
I stepped on the concrete floor in my bare feet. Although the temperature of the room was low, my body was hot and I sweat profusely.
I had severe rheumatism, and my knees were swollen after my child was born. And my legs and feet were sensitive to cold. But when I started to do the exercises, like millions of other practitioners, Master purified my body, and my rheumatism was wiped out without my realizing it.
Because of my rheumatism, I used to be afraid of the cold. Now my feet felt as though they were on fire when I did the exercises, even in winter. Dafa is miraculous.
Big Waves Hitting the Shore in My Body
One day after I'd been practicing Dafa for about half a year, during the lunch break at work, I leaned back and closed my eyes to rest.
I seemed to be in a trance and to suddenly enter my own body and see huge waves hitting the shore and hear the boom of crashing waves!
It was shockingly loud, as wave upon wave pushed higher and higher. In that instant, I felt like I was empty.
The roar of the waves was so loud that I wondered if the surface of my body could bear it, so I opened my eyes and took a look at my body to see.
When I saw that the surface of my body was calm, I fell asleep. After I woke up, I realized that I'd seen Master purifying my body from the most microscopic to the superficial level.
I just happened to see it. In fact, Master has done so much to purify practitioners' bodies, most of which we are not even aware of.
Experiencing the Heavenly Circuit in Meditation
When I first obtained the Fa, I couldn't cross my legs at all; especially the right leg and the right hip. They both sat high while I did the sitting meditation.
So while I did the sitting meditation during my lunch break at work, I wrapped square cement bricks used to pave the road with paper and put them on the inside of my right knee every day. At home, I placed bags filled with rice on my right knee.
One day during the sitting meditation, I really felt what Master said:
“Another heavenly circuit that is neither called "the small heavenly circuit" nor "the great heavenly circuit" is a form of heavenly circuit for practicing cultivation in meditation. Starting inside one’s body, it goes around niwan and comes down internally to the dantian, where it goes around and moves up. It is an internal circulation. This is the real heavenly circuit for practicing cultivation in meditation. After this heavenly circuit forms, it will become a very powerful energy current which then brings hundreds of energy channels in motion via one energy channel, so as to open up all other energy channels.” (Lecture Eight, Zhuan Falun)
At that time, a strong energy flow circulated from my head to my lower abdomen, as if my whole body was driven by this energy flow to rotate at a uniform speed, which was very beautiful and comfortable.
It lasted for about a minute. Because I was particularly surprised at the time, the uncontrollable excitement made that feeling disappear.
At that time, my legs wouldn't even stay in a single crossed position, but the heavenly circulation was already so strong. If it weren't for Master making me feel it, I wouldn't have even thought about it.
Master said:
“Here we will provide you with Falun, qiji, and all the mechanisms for cultivation practice and so on—more than ten thousand of them. They will all be given to you like seeds being planted in your body.” (Lecture Three, Zhuan Falun)
I understand with all due seriousness that as long as we are sincere about cultivating Dafa, regardless of whether our surface body feels it or not, Master has given us everything that should be given and has done everything for us.
Cultivation depends solely upon ourselves.
