(Minghui.org) After I began practicing Falun Dafa, I often shared with my family how I benefited from it and what the practice was all about. They identify with the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and support my belief in spite of the harsh persecution of Falun Dafa. Their kindness and integrity have, in turn, brought them blessings.
My sister Hua lives next door to me. She had a stroke last year and was hospitalized for a week. The doctor said she would not live much longer. Back home, she had to use a walker to get around. I recommended she recite, “Falun Dafa is good, “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” She heeded my advice and often recited the phrases to herself.
Instead of dying, Hua has recovered quickly and no longer needs the walker. When someone said bad things about Dafa, she stopped them and shared her own experience.
I have another sister, Hui, who also knows Falun Dafa is good. “The propaganda that slanders Falun Dafa on TV is all lies. Let me tell you what Dafa really is,” she often tells people. “My sister (referring to me) is a practitioner, and she took good care of our parents all by herself. After our parents died, their employers gave our family over 100,000 yuan to cover funeral expenses as a fringe benefit. My sister did not take a penny—she divided her share among the rest of the family.”
Hui is a farmer. The highest point on her terraced field is three meters off the ground. Once when she was cultivating the field, she fell from the highest point after the rope she was holding suddenly broke. She was in her 60s at the time.
“She’s done for,” her husband thought. “She probably broke her neck or a leg.”
“Come and pull me up!” Hui called.
It turned out she was not injured at all. She knew it was Master Li (the founder of Falun Dafa) that saved her.
Another time when she was seeding soybean, she fell down from the terraced field again. Covered in mud, she looked like a clay figurine with only a pair of eyes that moved. Again, she was not injured at all.
“This is another miracle,” she said while thanking Master Li for protecting her.
I am a real estate agent. One of my clients, Yang, used to be a tough woman. She talked loudly and often yelled at other people, especially her husband.
Yang and her family later moved to another city and wanted to use her former residence as a rental property. But she did not have time to manage it so she contacted me for help.
Looking at the old apartment, I wondered if any tenant would want to live there since there was no water, no electricity, and no furniture. “I know,” Yang shared my concern. “I have run an advertisement for it for a long time, but no one wants to rent my apartment.”
I suggested she renovate it. She agreed but said she was too busy and asked me for help. I agreed and then found a tenant after I helped her renovate it.
After some time, she came back for a visit. “It’s like new! Thank you so much!” she exclaimed. “How did you do it?”
I told her I was a Falun Dafa practitioner and that Master Li, the founder of Falun Dafa, told us to be considerate of others.
She seemed confused, saying the television programs always said bad things about Falun Dafa. I smiled and said that was slanderous Chinese Communist Party (CCP) propaganda. I said I used to often go out and play cards or dance and was hardly ever home. “It is Falun Dafa that turned me into a good and responsible person who cares about my family and my clients,” I added.
She nodded and asked about the staged Self-Immolation Incident on Tiananmen Square. “Those were lies, too,” I said. “Looking back in history, whenever the CCP intended to target any group it deemed a threat, it would make up lies to deceive the public. Wang Jindong, one of the self-immolators, was all burned. But his hair and the Sprite bottle with gasoline in it between his legs were intact. How could that be possible?” I asked.
She was convinced. I then explained that, since the CCP had suppressed innocent people during its numerous political campaigns, it is better to sever ties with the regime instead of sinking with it one day. “Do you want to quit the CCP organizations?”
“Sure!” she said. She then talked about her bad temper. “Can I improve my temper too?” she asked, “I want to be a good person, too.”
“Of course,” I replied. “Keep reciting ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good’ and that will help you.’”
A few months later, Yang visited me again with a friend. She looked much nicer—and healthier.
“What happened? You are almost like a different person?” I asked.
She said it was because of the phrases I told her to say. “My temper did improve. Sometimes when I was about to yell at my husband, I would say ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good’ in front of him,” she said. “It worked. Both my husband and I are happier than ever. I really want to thank Master Li for that.”
Hearing all this, her friend decided to quit the CCP organizations, too. I offered them a New Year calendar with phrases about Falun Dafa. They both thanked me repeatedly with big smiles.
