(Minghui.org) I began practicing Falun Dafa before 1999 and am now in my 80s. For more than 20 years, under the compassionate protection of Master Li, I have steadily made it through the storms and hardships of cultivation. My infinite gratitude to Master is beyond words. I want to share a few stories that moved me on my cultivation journey.
A Surprised Physician
I was in my early 50s when I started practicing Falun Dafa. I looked much older than my age. I suffered from heart disease, migraine headaches, and breast hyperplasia. No medication seemed to help with these problems, and I was anxious and worn out.
As a Falun Dafa practitioner, I abide by the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. Master purified my body, so all my ailments are gone. I feel so light, healthy, energetic, and happy.
During recent a routine physical checkup, my blood pressure was 119/64. The doctor was impressed that someone in her 80s had such perfect blood pressure. When I handed over my card to pay for the exam, the doctor was shocked to see a balance of 60,000 yuan. “I have worked in this clinic for over 20 years and have never seen anyone with that amount of unused medical funds—you haven’t even used 10,000 yuan. People usually use up their quota by the end of the month for one illness or another. You truly have a healthy body. It's unheard of! Amazing!”
I Found Life’s Purpose in Dafa
My parents were honest farmers who worked hard and lived in poverty all their lives. They worked all day, every day, and never went to school or learned how to read. What were their goals in life? I was puzzled by this since I was a child.
By practicing Dafa, I found the purpose of life and the answers to many questions, such as who am I, where did I come from, why am I alive, why is there suffering and disease, and so many other mysteries.
Master told us,
“I’ve told you to study the Fa a lot, to study the Fa, study the Fa, study the Fa …” (“Fa Teaching Given at the 2004 Chicago Fa Conference,” Collected Teachings Given Around the World Volume IV )
Whenever I think of this teaching, my eyes fill with tears, and I feel that Master is by my side. I resolved to listen to him, learn more Fa, and memorize the book Zhuan Falun in its entirety.
It took me nearly three months to memorize it the first time, and then I memorized it again in even less time. I have memorized it at least a hundred times so far. I can recite the poems in the six Hong Yin books from beginning to end and in order. With the Fa guiding my cultivation path, I am confident I will always assimilate to the Fa.
I respectfully and carefully copied Zhuan Falun eight times, following the format of the printed version. The entire copying process was also a process of letting go of attachments, cultivating my mind, tempering my will, and improving. I noticed my improvement each time I read, memorized, and copied the book.
The Life-saving Power of Informational Materials
Someone on the Minghui website suggested setting up Falun Dafa informational material production sites to help clarify the truth. I also wanted to set up a production site at home, but I knew nothing about computers. With Master’s blessing and fellow practitioners’ help, I learned to get online, download. and print. I have run my home information center safely for the past 15 years. Especially during COVID-19, it fully demonstrated its power to save lives.
During the pandemic, people were confined to their homes, resulting in fewer opportunities to speak with people face-to-face, so I prepared more flyers and booklets, distributed them more frequently, and also supplied some to fellow practitioners who also distributed them in their areas.
I download all the materials from Minghui.org, a huge treasure-trove that has everything I need. It is inexhaustible, and we should make full use of this precious resource. I visit Minghui every day to download and print materials. I also pack each flyer or booklet in a transparent self-sealing bag.
Before I went out to distribute them, I sent righteous thoughts: “You [materials] are all here for the Fa. It is an honor for a Dafa disciple to choose you. Work with me to save all living beings so that everyone who receives these materials will want to see the truth, understand the truth, and choose a better future.”
I then asked for Master’s blessing so things would go smoothly. I have the Fa in my heart and always feel peaceful and calm. I distributed the packets to people’s doors, the baskets of their bikes or motorcycles, or under their car windshield wipers. I often recite, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” and I do it all quickly. Occasionally, I encounter interference, but under Master’s care, I evade danger every time.
The routes I took to distribute the truth materials were not fixed, and every time I finished, I carefully recorded the building numbers, unit numbers, and so on in my book when I got home so as to avoid distributing to the same location and wasting Dafa’s resources.
Articles in which cultivators share their understandings typically reflect an individual's perception at a point in time based on their cultivation state, and they are offered in the spirit of enabling mutual elevation.
