An Older Practitioner: I Learned to Look Inside

July 13, 2009

(Clearwisdom.net) I am an older practitioner and have difficulty writing articles and typing. Here, finally, I have written down some cultivation experiences, including how Master gives me hints to remind me to move ahead more diligently and cherish this opportunity and walk well and righteously the last part of the Fa rectification and follow Master home.

In August 1997, my whole family cheerfully obtained Dafa. Before obtaining the Fa, I had high blood pressure, congenital heart disease, and many other illnesses. After obtaining Dafa, all these diseases disappeared and I became physically and mentally healthy. I would like to sincerely thank Master for his compassionate salvation.

In the past few years of cultivation, my husband and I sometimes argued with each other on certain issues, and occasionally argued strongly, which got quite serious. Therefore, I calmed down, studied Dafa, and meticulously copied Dafa books word for word. Master's hint scared me. I have cultivated for over a decade, and I knew I was a Dafa disciple, but I hadn't cultivated myself well and always focused on other people's shortcomings, criticized and complained about others, worried about this or that, argued about right or wrong on particular issues and was attached to other people's attachments.

From the Fa, I clearly understand that Dafa is evaluating everything and every sentient being is within Dafa and Dafa has different requirements of every being at different levels. As a cultivator, whether we run into something good or something bad, we should treat all of them as good things. These are good opportunities to improve our xinxing. If a problem occurs to me, there must be some attachment for me to remove. He is my husband, and our largest pre-destined relationships are with fellow practitioners. I should have compassionate thoughts and look at his merits and difficulties. He will turn 60 in a couple of years and still has to work which is not easy for him. I should look inside and cultivate unconditionally. Only when we look inside and cultivate great tolerance and compassion can we remove the separation in the old cosmos.

After steadily studying the Fa and rectifying myself, I indeed removed many human attachments and notions. In the course of cultivation, the cultivated part has been separated and what is left is the part that has not been cultivated. I still need to keep improving xinxing and enlarging my capacity. Once when I sent forth righteous thoughts, I saw in my celestial eye some water-like fluid that flew out of a container. I enlightened to the fact that Master was giving me a hint to enlarge my capacity and cultivate greater compassion and tolerance.

After I cultivated my mind, Master did everything for me and also gave mighty virtue to us. After studying Dafa peacefully, I see two totally different results when I look inside compared to looking outside.

If there is anything inappropriate, please kindly point it out. Heshi
