A Person's Good or Bad Thoughts Can Bring Different Consequences
In Yueyang City, Hunan Province, my friend's son told a Falun Dafa practitioner a story that he had experienced himself. One day, he received a truth-clarification flyer about Falun Dafa and thought that it was good, so he gave it to his neighbor, the owner of a hair salon. The neighbor tore up the flyer as soon as the young man had turned around. Since then, the hair salon's business became worse day after day. Soon, the salon went out of business. Hating Dafa will bring tribulations and treating Dafa kindly will bring good fortune. It was sad that this man pushed away his good fortune when it was coming from the heavens. Actually, he accumulated this fortune himself in his previous lives; however he rejected it when it returned to him in this life.
Later my friend's son again received two Falun Dafa truth-clarification flyers. In the corner of the page, the flyer said:"Please give this to the people you care about." He thought about giving them to a classmate, whom he had not spoken with for a long time. The next day, his classmate really came to meet him. After his classmate read the flyer, he said, "It's very good, it's very good." When he was going to return the flyer, my friend's son said, "You should give it to the people you care about." My friend's son is an employee in a hotel. About a month after receiving the flyers, he was promoted to department manager. My friend asked the Dafa practitioner as he was thinking about it, "Is your Master a Tathagata Buddha?"
Understanding the Truth Can Save One's Life
This is a real story.
There was a dark red coffin in a farmer's yard outside an industrial city in northern China. More than 30 people were coming in and out to make preparations for bereavement. The old man, Mr. Wang, was 76 years old and had not eaten or drunk anything for more than 10 days as he lay in bed. The people assumed that he was waiting with no food or drink for death to come.
Mr. Wang's children announced that their second aunt was coming, and indeed a peaceful and kind looking elderly woman (Dafa practitioner) arrived. She spoke into Mr. Wang's ear: "Hello my third brother, have you heard about Falun Dafa? Our Master has come to save people. Falun Dafa is a cultivation practice for the salvation of sentient beings. It is also a practice that gives a person eternal longevity. Remember 'Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance' is the great Buddha Fa." She also talked to him about a human being's birth and death process, samsara (reincarnation), karmic retribution, why human beings suffer hardships, and more. While she was talking, the old Mr. Wang calmly took a breath, opened his eyes slowly and said: "I believe what you told me, I believe it completely. Falun Gong is good. I've only come to repay my debts in this lifetime.'' He got out of bed as he was speaking, put on his clothes, and then went outside. The 30 people who had come to prepare for the funereal were shocked. How could he get out of bed? People were exclaiming, "Falun Dafa is really divine, it can bring people back to life."
Mr. Wang talked with his second sister, the Dafa disciple, until the next morning.
