(Clearwisdom.net) I am a Dafa practitioner from Jilin Province. During over seven years of cultivation I have always been on the road that Master arranged for me. One day in August 1998, I fortunately encountered Dafa. I was so happy. Afterwards I went to the practice site and joined the group to study the Fa every day. I was very diligent.
When I was young, I suffered from polio and was disabled. Because my family was poor, I was always undernourished and lagged in physical development. Later I developed chondropathy and could hardly walk, so I could not go anywhere. Because I was disabled I felt inferior. I did not want to talk with people. After I started to practice Dafa I changed a lot. When I met with unhappy things, I could talk with my fellow practitioners, and they would help me. Before I did not want to talk too much. Particularly when there were people around, I couldn't even speak one sentence. My biggest shortcoming was that I was not decisive. My ability to adapt was very limited. Now I have changed. I know I am a practitioner and I must be stronger. I cannot rely on other people. I can feel my Master's compassion every time I study the Fa or practice the exercises. For several years I have benefited profoundly from Dafa. The following are some examples.
My husband is also disabled, and he is very old and sick. He suffers from bone tuberculosis, a duodenal ulcer, stroke sequella and severe tracheitis. We used to work in the same unit. When the factory closed, we lost our jobs and our income. Our lives became very hard. We could only sell fruit. Then I started to cultivate in Dafa. I have studied Zhuan Falun every day since then. I also attended group practice and experience sharing conferences. During the daytime I could do some housework. I was satisfied with this arrangement and I did not think it hard any longer. I felt life had meaning.
But after July 20, when the persecution of Dafa began, the environment changed. I could not join group practice or experience-sharing conferences anymore. How good Dafa is! But we are not allowed to practice. One night in the second half of 1999, I was very upset. I went out to walk, but when I crossed the road, darkness suddenly overcame me and I could not remember anything. When I woke up again I saw a doctor and my relatives around my bed. They kept asking me, "Are you okay?" My whole body was in pain, especially my head. It turned out that my head needed eight stitches. My pelvis, legs and arms were broken. My younger sister said to me when I woke up, "You are so strong! When we sent you to hospital, the doctors said it was miraculous that a weak person like you would still be okay after such a serious car accident." Of course only I could understand that it was Master who really protected me. Dafa protected me.
They still tried to convince me to be hospitalized. I said to them, "It's okay. I am a Dafa practitioner. I will be all right." So I went home. I read Zhuan Falun every day in bed. When I could sit, I started the sitting meditation even though I could not sit in the lotus position. Soon thereafter I recovered.
But more troubles came. Although I recovered, I couldn't go to work anymore. I could just do housework. We did not have money, and we still had many loans to pay off. When my son wanted to do some business, he not only did not make any money, he also lost money in the business transactions. By then we were desperate.
Then I remembered my Master. Soon I had regained my trust in the future and I also convinced my husband and my son to face the truth bravely. We could not be negative or pessimistic. Eventually I helped my son to find a job. Now he is an employee in a corporation and is doing well in his job.
Things like these happened to me frequently. I do not want to list them all. I just want to tell you that Dafa changed me and that my understanding has continued to improve from continuous Fa study and communication with other practitioners. My conviction will not waver. Now I go to many places to distribute truth clarification materials or send these materials to fellow practitioners and communicate with them. I want to use my own experiences to clarify the truth and validate the Fa, to let everyone know that Dafa will save them.
