(Clearwisdom.net) I am so fortunate to have obtained the Fa in 1999. The following is my cultivation experience sharing. Please kindly point out anything improper.
Dafa has brought health benefits to my whole family
When qigong was at its peak in popularity, many people suggested that I practice Falun Dafa, but I refused. Then when I accompanied my husband to a practice site one time, I was deeply moved when I saw the video of Master teaching the Fa in Jinan City. It was then that I decided to practice.
Master cleansed my body, and all of my illnesses soon disappeared. After about four months of practicing, my eyesight improved tremendously and I no longer needed to wear presbyopic glasses, which I had worn for the past four years. My husband's coronary heart problem, lower back pain and high cholesterol levels all returned to normal. My grandson also benefited from our practicing Falun Dafa, as his doctor said that he had fully recovered from congenital heart disease and no longer needed to have an operation. The miracles were truly amazing!
Another grandson of mine was hit by a motorcycle while he was playing on the road. However, he was not hurt at all. Both my grandsons liked reading Zhuan Falun, reciting Hong Yin and watching videos of Master teaching the Fa. They could also see Falun rotating around them. My husband and I always taught them to follow the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance to be good children.
I know how precious the Fa is and the importance of Fa study. So I carefully study the Fa every day. Every word in Zhuan Falun looks very colorful, golden and shiny.
I continually gain wisdom with Master’s help. Some people didn’t believe the importance of quitting the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), but after I explained the facts about Falun Dafa to them, they agreed to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations. Some people were very stubborn and did not want to listen, but I maintained a compassionate heart and persisted in clarifying the facts to them. Master has created all kinds of opportunities to bring predestined people to me. As long as we have the heart to save people, Master will help us.
Clarifying the facts to the people I meet
I have clarified the facts to my relatives and friends, old acquaintances and people with predestined relationships. I smile to all that I meet, and through conversation, I let them know the facts about Falun Dafa. When I tell people that I am in my 70s, they are surprised at how energetic I am. I tell them how I have benefited from the practice, and how widely Dafa has spread around the world. I am often moved to tears when I see sentient beings longing to be saved.
Master said:
“The power of true compassion can dissolve all deviant factors, and when you talk with a person you will be emitting energy outwardly that dissolves evil things, and the evil in other dimensions will not dare to approach or control that person anymore. When you then reason with that person, he will listen, and you will be able to purge the lies infused into him by the wicked CCP, thus removing the block in his mind.” (“Fa Teaching Given in Manhattan”)
I spoke to a middle-aged woman on a bus about Falun Dafa. At first she didn’t want to listen. After I explained the facts in detail, she understood that Falun Dafa is good, but still did not want to quit the CCP. I calmed down and sent forth righteous thoughts. I said to her, “I am telling you this for your own good; I want to save you. It is my benevolent Master that is helping me to save you. Please do not miss this chance. Just quit.” She immediately replied, “Okay, I will do as you ask. Please also help my family members to quit.” As she began to thank me, I said, “My Master teaches me to be good and to save you. If you want to express thanks, please thank my Master!”
An 85-year-old distant relative who suffered from emphysema and heart disease could not walk without the aid of a walking stick. I asked him to recite every day: “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” The next time I met him, he was moving around without any support. The third time I met him, his wife said, “Let me tell you something wonderful! For several days he had severe pains in his abdomen. I asked him to see the doctor, but he refused to go and continued to recite 'Falun Dafa is good.' That night, he had a dream. Someone came to him. It must have been Master Li. Master opened his abdomen and pulled out a few stones. Then Master sewed him back up again. When he woke up the next day, there was no pain in his abdomen. He cried out, ‘Master Li Hongzhi really is good and great. Thank you, Master!’”
When I clarified the facts to a 52-year-old woman who suffered with severe heart disease, she recited “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” every day. Two months later, she went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor asked her son, “What special medicine did your mom take? Her illness has disappeared.” The woman respected Dafa and Master very much. When I met her two years later, I asked, “Do you still recite those two sentences?” She said, “Yes! I will never forget them!”
I once attended a relative’s party, and we all sat around two big tables for dinner. When I spoke to the people around my table about Falun Dafa, the people on the other table stopped eating and started to listen to me. I then stood up and explained the facts to everyone at the party. They all agreed to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations. When I met a couple from the party a few days later, the man said, “Dafa is really good. I’d like to study Dafa.”
My husband and I get up at 3:30 a.m. every day to do the five sets of exercises, and we never miss any of the times for sending forth righteous thoughts. We go out to clarify the facts every morning, and we study the Fa in the afternoon. We try to do the three things well that Master has asked us to do. Every day we feel fulfilled and know that we are following the path Master has arranged for us.
Be more diligent in cultivation
I had a severe pain in my left leg in July 2010, and could hardly cross my legs to do the sitting meditation. Even when I walked up or down stairs, I had to stop after every step. I sent forth righteous thoughts and looked inward. I wondered, “What loophole do I have that the old forces are taking advantage of?” Then I enlightened that there’s no limit for saving sentient beings. When I first began to clarify the facts, I set a number for myself, thinking about just trying to save that many people. However, I need to save more people, and should continue saving as many sentient beings as possible. I recalled Master’s teaching: “I'm Li Hongzhi's disciple, I don't want other arrangements or acknowledge them.” (“Explaining the Fa During the 2003 Lantern Festival at the U.S. West Fa Conference”) With this righteous thought, the pain in my leg soon disappeared and I devoted myself to doing the three things well.
I had a dream where I was lying on a bed. A voice said, “Hurry and climb up. If you can climb up, you can reach the sky.” I took a look and found that the sky was indeed very close to me. I thought that I should climb up and touch the sky. So I tried my best to climb up. When I was almost up, the mountains suddenly shook and the ground became unsteady. I was not afraid, and continued climbing. I felt gigantic and incomparably tall. Looking down, I couldn’t see the ground. I reached out and touched the sky. My heart was not moved and I continued raising my arms, making a hole in the sky. I could then see a clearer, more beautiful sky at a higher level. I thought, “There are higher-level skies above. Master, I need to continue upgrading myself and be more diligent! I won’t let Master worry about me.” When I woke up, I was very excited. I knew that Master was encouraging me to move forward in cultivation. Master has given us a lot, but in comparison I have done so little.
Master said,
“Study the Fa and gain the Fa,
Focus on how you study and cultivate,
Let each and every thing
be measured against the Fa.
Only then, with that,
is it actually cultivation.”
(“Solid Cultivation,” in Hong Yin)
My husband studies the Fa very carefully. He has transcribed the book Zhuan Falun six times and recited it once. He only used to talk to friends and relatives about Falun Dafa, but we have now formed one body, and every time we go out he sends forth righteous thoughts while I clarify the facts to people. By working together, the number of people we have helped to quit the CCP has greatly increased.
Studying the Fa and cultivating myself well has helped my family environment. My husband and I were attached to human emotions. My oldest son often fought with his wife, and they wanted to get divorced. After studying Master’s “Fa Teaching Given to the Australian Practitioners,” we realized that the troubles in their marriage were caused by our attachments. We improved our cultivation, and asked my son and his wife to look inward and care for each other. We also gave them Zhuan Falun to read. The environment soon changed, and both of them said that the other had become a much better person. I very much appreciated Master for saving my son’s family.
