An Unforgettable Summer Vacation

Nov. 19, 2007

(Clearwisdom.net) I am a 12-year-old practitioner who began practicing Falun Dafa last year. I'm writing about several experiences I had in this past summer vacation to share with fellow practitioners.

My third aunt practices Falun Gong. Whenever I am on vacation, I always enjoy visiting her to listen to her talk about cultivation. This is how I came to establish a karmic relationship with Falun Dafa. This past summer, my mother arranged for me to take an English class outside of school. It just so happened that my third aunt called and said that there was an English Learning Center near where she lived, so I went and stayed at my aunt's home. I was very happy because I could practice Falun Gong with my aunt. I knew this was Master's arrangement, because Master does not want to leave out any Dafa disciples. I must do well and not let Master down.

We studied the Fa, practiced the exercises, and sent righteous thoughts without skipping a day. In only a few days I started to experience the elimination of sickness karma. I started to develop very painful canker sores. A few days later, my lips healed. I have had a liver disease since I was very little, and I had taken medication for it for 12 years. After I obtained the Fa, my illness disappeared and I no longer have to suffer. I thank our compassionate and great Master for everything he has done for me.

Both my second and third aunts are villagers with a lot of farm work to do. Her work had started to get in the way when my second aunt needed to study the Fa or practice the exercises. I saw in another dimension Falun Dafa practitioners flying like a flock of little birds. Those who were cultivating well were flying upward, whereas my second aunt was falling downward. I was very concerned and told her about it. She was ashamed when she heard what I had seen. She said she would definitely be more diligent from then on.

One day, my third aunt took me to a fellow practitioner's home. After entering the house she pointed to a photo on the wall and said, "This is Master Li." What I saw was a very tall Master emitting a shining light. Master took fellow practitioners with him and flew upward. I seemed to be floating in the sky. I looked down and saw a lot of people. Some of them were crying, and some were in a daze. Those evil people were on their knees begging Master for forgiveness. I instantly understood the reason why Master wanted us to clarify the truth.

Although I spend some time every day studying the Fa and practicing the exercises, I have not fallen behind in school at all. Instead, I have made rapid improvements. I scored the highest in a test conducted by the learning center I attended. My improvement showed the miraculous effect of Falun Dafa. I had even more faith in Falun Dafa. On the second day, several boys in my class started to make fun of me. Somehow I could not understand why. After returning home I told my aunt about it. She said, "Isn't that a good thing?" I immediately remembered what Master said in Zhuan Falun:

"Accordingly, in your future cultivation practice you will run into all kinds of tribulations. How can you practice cultivation without these hardships? If everyone is good to one another without conflicts of interests or interference from the human mind, how can your xinxing make progress by your only sitting there? That is impossible."

I understood that this unexpected, sudden conflict must have been arranged by Master in order for me to improve my "xinxing." How could I be mad at them? On the contrary, I should thank them. Teacher says:

"If you can actually do it, you will indeed find: 'After passing the shady willow trees, there will be bright flowers and another village ahead!'" (from Zhuan Falun)

Those classmates have not made fun of me since then and have even become friends with me.

I truly feel that this was the happiest and most meaningful vacation I have ever had. I understand now how to become a good person. After going home, I will do the three things well so that I can reach consummation and follow Master back home.
