(Minghui.org) As a child, I enjoyed sitting outside in our yard on summer nights, listening to the elders talk. They said that every star in the sky was a person’s soul. When a person died, that star would turn into a meteor and fall. They also told us stories about foxes that became humans through cultivation. At that time, it was amazing that this universe was so big. I wondered: Why are we born into this world? What is the meaning of a human life?
After I began to practice Falun Dafa in 2003, I truly understood that the real purpose of human life is to return to one’s original nature and return to one’s true home in heaven.
Miraculous Changes in My Body Since Cultivating Dafa
When I was in high school, I got rhinitis. It almost always broke out when I caught a cold. Then it lasted for two or three weeks each time. I felt discomfort due to the headache that came with it. Each time, I took a lot of medicine. The headache and distress directly affected my schoolwork. My mind was rarely clear, and my memory declined. In that condition, I was unwilling to study, and my learning efficiency plummeted. My grades quickly dropped from the top of the class to the bottom. As a result, I had to repeat the last year of high school to get admitted to a university.
After I started working, the rhinitis continued to accompany me. Whenever I caught a cold, it triggered the rhinitis, and I had to take cold medicine, painkillers, and anti-inflammatory drugs for several weeks. So, my mental state was not good, and I felt dizzy every day. At that time, I felt deeply pessimistic and hopeless about life.
One specific time, I again caught a cold. I had a headache and pain in my temples and brow bones, along with dizziness and chills. It was so distressing that I had to take anti-inflammatory drugs again. However, the symptoms didn’t improve after a long time. I became annoyed with taking medicine, thinking the medicine didn’t work. So I thought I should stop taking it. After a few days, I got better. At the time, I felt this was very strange, wondering if I would get better without taking any medicine.
After that cold, the rhinitis never came back. I didn’t think about the reason behind it or pay attention to when it got better. From then on, I had a clear mind and lived a happy life. After I started practicing Falun Dafa, I realized that the experience occurred because I had read Zhuan Falun at that time. Master had taken care of me and cured my rhinitis even before I started cultivating.
One night, after I started to practice Falun Dafa, I suddenly had a stomachache. My stomach hurt so much that I tossed and turned in bed all night, unable to fall asleep, and I went to the bathroom many times. The following day, I was fine. This happened again when we visited my husband’s family during winter vacation for the Chinese New Year. One night, I similarly had a severe stomachache. I got up twice to use the bathroom, and was fine the next day. Since then, this situation has never happened again. I am now in my 50s and can eat any food. Master healed my stomach problem. It is really a blessing to practice Falun Dafa.
When my daughter graduated from junior high school, we climbed Mount Tai together. Unfortunately, I injured my knee during the hike. On the way down the mountain, the pain was so intense that I could barely walk. The discomfort lasted for a long time. However, I reminded myself I was a practitioner and believed I would recover without issue. To my surprise, my knee entirely healed without my realizing it.
Sometimes, I feel uncomfortable, but I know I am a practitioner and that I am not sick. For a practitioner, this is eliminating karma. I recite the nine-character mantra: “Falun Dafa is good; Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” I also studt the Fa and practice the exercises, knowing I will feel better soon.
Since practicing Falun Dafa, my health has improved, and I feel light when I walk. One day, as I returned from the market after shopping, I felt light, as if I had no weight. As I was walking, I felt light, but the vegetables and fruits in my hands were very heavy. My mind was very clear, and everything around me was so beautiful.
The Temperature Around Me Increases When I Practice the Exercises
I am generally not very sensitive. Since I have been practicing Falun Dafa, I have not felt any energy in my body, like others have. I did notice some time last year that the room temperature would rise while I was practicing the Falun Dafa exercises. I have two residences. On weekdays, I stay at the one that is about 90 square meters, and the bedroom is about 10 square meters. My bedroom clock has a thermometer and a hygrometer. I get up at around 4 a.m. to do the Falun Dafa exercises.
During the 30 minutes of my practicing the first, third, and fourth sets of exercises, I noticed that the temperature in the bedroom was gradually rising. It can increase by about 0.5 degrees in cold weather and 0.7 degrees in spring. One time, I sent forth righteous thoughts in that large living room for 15 minutes, and the temperature rose by about 0.2 degrees. On weekends, I live at another residence, which is larger, about 113 square meters. When practicing the first, third, and fourth sets of exercises in the living room, I found that the temperature rose by 0.2 degrees every time.
While doing the exercises, we emit a significant amount of energy, which can raise the temperature around us. Of course, this energy can kill harmful germs and viruses around us, thereby helping to cure diseases and improve our overall health. As a result, we are less susceptible to plagues, and if we do become ill, our symptoms tend to be milder. This is a fascinating phenomenon that I have discovered.
Getting Rid of Attachments to Self-Interest in Work and in Life
Since entering Dafa cultivation in 2003, I have strived to do things according to Master’s requirements and be strict with myself. I work at a school library. There are a large number of books in the library, as well as various electronic notebooks for students. It is not a big deal to use a notebook when working in the library, but I know that I am a cultivator and must act according to the requirements of cultivators. Therefore, apart from the notebook I use for work, I have never taken a notebook from the library for my personal use.
I once wanted to hand-copy Dafa books, so I bought some notebooks to take to my workplace. A colleague in the same office said, “We have so many notebooks here, why do you buy them yourself?” I said, “I am a cultivator and live according to the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. To gain, one must lose. I cannot take what is not mine.” She later told other colleagues that I bought all these notebooks myself and did not take advantage of the library. My colleague later retired, and I was the only one left in the library. I followed the principles and did not take any school items.
The school has a lot of magazines, newspapers, old books, etc., and some have to be disposed of after some time. When my colleagues were around, we sold scraps of paper and gave the money to the school’s finance office. Later, when I was the only one left, I didn’t handle it alone. I asked the supervisors to send someone to watch me sell the scraps, and all the money was handed over. If I handled it myself, no one would know whether I kept a portion for myself. But I wouldn’t do that because I am a cultivator. The person who helped me said, “Those who sold the scraps of paper in the past were not like you (meaning they kept the money for themselves).”
I also don’t use the school’s notebooks for personal purposes. I buy anything I need for personal use on my own. I also sold other items we scrapped and turned in all the money. I feel happy and blessed to be able to cultivate Dafa.
Once, a parent of one of my students called me and said she was downstairs at my home. She asked for my floor and unit number because she wanted to visit me. She tried to give me a gift, hoping I would take good care of her child. Of course, I didn’t tell her where I live. As a cultivator, I hold myself strictly to the principles of the Fa and do not accept gifts from students. I told her, “Your child makes great effort in his study, and I will continue to care for him. You don’t need to give me gifts. I won’t accept any gifts from anyone.”
The Miracle of My Aunt Surviving Late-stage Lung Cancer
In the fall of 2019, my aunt had a cough that had become unbearable, and she had difficulty breathing, so she went to the hospital for a checkup. She was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. Her daughter works in a hospital in Beijing, so she took her to Beijing for a second opinion, but the diagnosis was the same. My sister told me that my aunt had late-stage lung cancer, and the cancer had already spread to her bones; however, my aunt didn’t feel much pain at the time, except for the discomfort of coughing.
Someone with her advanced-stage lung cancer typically does not have much time left. Regardless of how good the medical care is, she may not have much opportunity for improvement. However, we believed that Dafa could save her. My aunt had read Dafa books previously. So her daughter and my sister persuaded her to resume practicing Falun Dafa. She started reading the books again and practicing the exercises. However, all kinds of bad thoughts and notions often disturbed her, making her feel that her body had not changed much. She often had doubts, “Does Master really take care of me?” She could not firmly believe in Master and Dafa. She often asked us, “How can you tell if Master is taking care of me?” We told her that it is said in Zhuan Falun that as long as you want to cultivate in your heart, Master will take care of you. She still could not truly believe it.
But Auntie tried hard to break through, saying, “Why can’t I believe it? How can I believe it?” She insisted on reading Zhuan Falun for two hours every evening and reading Master’s other lectures and practitioners’ experience sharing articles during the day. Because she had the heart to try to believe in Master and the Fa, Master took care of her. Although Auntie does not eat well and has back pain, she is still alive and doing well six years later. This is a miracle, and her family got to witness the miraculous nature of Dafa.
I am grateful for the chance to practice Falun Dafa. I hope more people discover Falun Dafa, practice it, and return to their true home in heaven.
