(Clearwisdom.net) As soon as I got a printed copy of the new scripture, “What Does it Mean to 'Help Master Rectify the Fa,'” I immediately thought about taking it to a couple of 85-year-old practitioners.
After I prepared the printouts and other assorted materials, it started raining. I picked up a poncho and planned to ride my bicycle in the rain. As I set out, it suddenly started to pour. As the raindrops beat on my face, I could not see anything in front of me. Fortunately, there were no pedestrians or vehicles on the road. I just felt my way along and pedaled ahead against the rain. The rain penetrated my poncho and dripped down my legs. It suddenly occurred to me, “It is okay that I am soaked, but the new scripture printouts must stay intact.”
I arrived in about 20 minutes and parked my bicycle. When I took the bag with the new scripture wrapped in two layers of plastic out of my bicycle basket, I saw that it was completely dry. I could not help but be amazed by the miraculous nature of Dafa.
I handed the bag to the senior male practitioner and talked to him a little bit at the front door in my wet clothes before I got ready to leave. Then, the senior female practitioner rushed outside. Her daughter tried to hold her back but could not. She said, “Mom, it is raining outside and it's very slippery. You are not young any more. Don't fall.”
The female practitioner ran after me in the rain all the way to the front gate. With a smile she said, “Two miraculous things happened to me recently. I want you to write them down and submit them to the Minghui (Clearwisdom) website to validate the Fa and testify to the healing power and miraculous nature of the Fa. I also want to express my deep gratitude to our Teacher.”
“Good! That's wonderful. Please go ahead and tell me.”
This practitioner is 85 years old. In the past 15 years of practicing Falun Gong, she has never had a single pill or injection. Her complexion looks particularly healthy. She looks like she is in her 60s.
She said, “A few days ago, I was going to do the sitting meditation when all of a sudden my legs ached so badly that I could not bend them at all. My kneecaps ached fiercely. As I pulled up my pant legs, I saw my knees were badly swollen. I sent forth righteous thoughts but it did not help. After a day of aching, my son and his wife planned to take me to the hospital. I reminded myself that I was a practitioner and didn't need to go because my Teacher would look after me. In the evening, my husband told me that we should appeal to our Teacher for help together. After we did, my legs healed up and the swelling subsided. The next day we called our children and told them not to worry about taking me to the hospital and that I was fine. Our children were touched beyond words. This was my first miracle. You must send my gratitude to Minghui and Teacher. I truly believe in Dafa and Teacher and nothing else.”
She continued, “Teacher is right by our sides though we cannot see him. Let me tell you another miracle. One day our whole family sat down together to celebrate a holiday. My daughter gave me some duck meat. A thin bone got lodged in my throat. I could not swallow it down nor spit it out. I just endured the pain and did not tell my children about it as, again, I did not want them to take me to the hospital. After three days, the bone was still stuck in my throat. I then thought that maybe I should ask for Teacher's help. With this thought, I suddenly felt that the passageway was cleared and it no longer hurt when I swallowed food. I was moved to tears and thanked Teacher many many times in my heart. Later on when I told my children about it, they still felt the fear that, for my age, it could have been much more painful if it were not for Teacher's help. My whole family all felt deep gratitude for Teacher's benevolent care.”
When she finished telling me this, she smiled just like a innocent kid. I knew the smile was from the bottom of her heart!
Then I told her about something that I had witnessed myself. One of my fellow practitioners was killed by the local authorities. After the story was exposed on Minghui, the practitioner's family received a postcard one day from a practitioner in Japan. Miraculously, the postcard, with the sentence “Practicing Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance is not a crime” written on it, passed through layers and layers of the authorities' overseas filtering system until it reached its final destination. Isn't that extraordinary? Isn't there a strong righteous thought and firm belief in Teacher and the Fa behind each and every miracle of Fa-rectification? Teacher is truly looking after us each and every moment!
As I finished my story, the rain suddenly stopped. After saying goodbye, I rode home. Within a few yards, I felt gushes of warm air flowing from under my feet. It was so warm and comfortable, as if I were riding on two magical wheels. The feeling was magnificent, truly beyond the power of human words to express. I could only thank Teacher in my heart: “Teacher, you give so much to your disciple. As your disciple, I must advance in my cultivation diligently and never let you down.”
