My Choice to Experience the Blessings of Falun Dafa

May 7, 2007 |   By a Falun Dafa practitioner in China

(Clearwisdom.net) After believing in my religion for three years, I sincerely wanted to return to heaven. I had weak kidneys and had to use the toilet many times a day. I was very perplexed and could not sleep at night. I felt weak and no medicine could alleviate my problem. When I was desperate, I went to visit a friend whom I had not seen for a long time. I noticed that she was in good spirits and was full of energy. Although she said that her job was very tiring, she was very energetic. It seemed strange and I asked her about her secret. She smiled at me and said that she had been practicing qigong. She had been practicing for over a year and all her illnesses had disappeared.

In the past, I had also practiced many forms of qigong. Then why did my illnesses not go away? I asked her, "What qigong are you practicing?" She replied, "Falun Gong. Its fundamental belief is Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance." At that time, I was attracted by these three words and in my heart I liked "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance" very much. Despite this, I did not want to leave my religion because I did not have a good impression of qigong from my prior experience. Nonetheless, my current illnesses were still not cured in spite of the medical expenses I paid. After chatting for a while, I went home and was sad that she had left our religion.

One night I heard a voice in my dream telling me to cultivate Dafa, and I was given some books and tapes. When I woke up, I thought this was instructions from gods. On the second day, I went to my elder sister's house and borrowed the book and tapes about Falun Gong from her. I wanted to gain a deeper understanding about Falun Gong. As I was very attached to my religion, I found it difficult to accept the contents of the book and tapes. Just when I was about to return them, suddenly I heard these words from the tape,

"If you are free from this sentimentality, nobody can affect you. An everyday person's mind will be unable to sway you. What takes over in its place is benevolence, which is something more noble." ("Lecture Four" from Zhuan Falun, 2000 translation version)

I was moved by these few words. It shook me from the inside of my soul. The door to my heart had opened.

So I went to my sister's house again and asked her to teach me the exercises. When I came back home, I sat in the double lotus position and in less than two minutes my legs were in unbearable pain. I stopped practicing. My younger sister watched me and was interested. She learned how to meditate from me. She endured the pain and did the meditation exercise for half an hour. She happily told me, "It was really miraculous. I saw the acupuncture points on the soles of my feet. They were like little white spots." Upon hearing this, I quickly resumed the meditation exercise. I wanted to persist for a longer period than my sister. After one hour, I did not see anything and the pain almost killed me. At the moment when I was confused and lost, a Falun as big as a fan appeared in front of me. It was shinning and very beautiful. I was delighted. This was real. Buddha Fa appeared before my eyes.

I finally found my way home. At the start, Master purified my body. I had fever for two days and I had firm belief in Master's words and knew that it was karma elimination. I did not take any medication and recovered after two days. I persisted in my practice of Fa study and exercises every day. I could sleep better and I did not have to use the toilet as often as in the past. One month later I saw a flash of light. In the light, there was a big eye. It had long eyelashes and was very pretty. I knew that this was the Celestial eye that Master had given me.

Three months later, one night a screen like that of a television monitor appeared in front of my eyes. There were mountains and water and I was riding on a horse and rushing forward. In a short time, the image disappeared. Six months later, in my dream, Master gave me a golden ring. I grabbed hold of the golden ring and in a while I drifted up into the clouds. I wanted to go up higher but could not. So I returned to my original position. I knew that my gong was only that high.

Within six months I had interference from the other dimensions. One night, I saw the Queen Mother of heaven. She told me that she would give me gong. I knew that it was important for one to practice only one cultivation way, and I told her that I did not want her gong. One day when I was doing the mediation exercise, a demon told me, "Now you can make it, your gong has gone up." I was not moved. There was another time when a demon came to scare me by making an ugly creature appear in front of me. A demon's head also appeared. But again, I was not moved.

As I studied the Fa more and did the exercises, I felt that Falun Dafa could help one elevate very quickly. The book Zhuan Falun contains many secrets and helped me to elevate myself level by level and return to my true self. The cultivation path is full of tribulations. Tribulations are here to test me and I had to suffer both physically and mentally. After overcoming them, my cultivation level elevated and my body underwent changes. My skin became fairer and I walked with energy. I seemed younger and when I was in the streets with my daughter, people could not believe that we were mother and daughter.

When my husband was unfaithful, my compassion won over my resentment and grudges. We had a peaceful separation and divorced. When he was in trouble, I sincerely helped him. He was moved by my kindness and saw the value of being a good person. Later in my life, he helped me a lot with my finances and I knew that he had also chosen a good future for himself.

I wish that all people with predestined relationships will get to know Falun Dafa. I hope they don't miss this chance after waiting for Dafa through many rounds of reincarnation. The real thing is right in front of you. Treasure this predestined relationship that only comes once in thousands of years.
