(Minghui.org) I have been cultivating in Falun Dafa for over a dozen years. With Master's compassionate protection, I have experienced many amazing things that have reinforced my confidence in cultivation. I would like to share some of them here.
Beacon of Light
After Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party was published, fellow practitioners and I distributed the book to help people see the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) evil nature and lay a foundation for their salvation.
Towards the end of the year when everyone was preparing for the holidays, three fellow practitioners and I went to a faraway village to hang Dafa banners and distribute the Nine Commentaries. Since I was the youngest among us, I went further down the road. After I finished my job, I realized that I was lost. I was standing in deep snow and darkness.
Standing there alone, I was a little shaky inside and asked Master: “Where should I go?” Immediately I saw a beacon of light! A street with some lights appeared to my left, and there were a dozen people walking on the road! Two or three kids were chasing each other, and their parents were calling for them to come home. Three women were walking down the street, and a young couple was chatting. I realized that Master was pointing my way out. I saw a small ditch under the light, and walked over it and went back on the street.
The busy scene on the street disappeared suddenly. I discovered that I was standing on the main street of the village. The vehicle that we had come in was right there, with its lights blinking. After I got into the car and shared my experience with them, everyone was deeply grateful for Master's grace.
A World of Difference in Just Five Minutes
A young co-worker came on board at work, who is a relative of the general manager. She behaved inappropriately and often gave me a hard time. I tried my best to ignore her and told myself that I might owe her from the past, and she was there to help me get rid of attachments.
One afternoon, she blamed me for something that I did not do in front of a group of co-workers. I did not argue and went into my office. At that point I was almost in tears, thinking that it truly was not easy to cultivate.
I saw my attachments of having a competitive mentality, reputation, and not wanting to be criticized. I thought that I should rectify these things as I cultivate, and not depend on others to show me these things through their poor behavior. As I came to this realization, I felt bad about her having to do those bad things to serve as a way to awaken me to my attachments.
At that point, the young co-worker came in and said cheerfully: “I have oranges and biscuits for you.” I told her that I did not want them. She put them into my hand, and smiled at me brightly as if nothing had happened.
What a world of difference! She later asked me to help her and her boyfriend withdraw from the CCP after I talked to them about Falun Gong and the CCP's persecution.
A Critical Moment of Life and Death
This episode happened shortly after the Minghui website published an article regarding removing the CCP's marks and symbols. My husband is a party secretary, so there was a large amount of CCP-related books and magazines at our home.
When my husband was on a business trip, I did a complete clean-up. I first cleaned out all the CCP magazines, which filled up a big box and two large bags. I took the box downstairs, and as I was going back up to get the bags, I suddenly couldn't breathe. I was foaming at the mouth, but could not draw in any air.
I realized that the CCP's evil factors in other dimensions were moving against me as I was clearing out their materials in my home. I thought to myself that I am a Dafa practitioner in the Fa rectification period. I am Master Li Hongzhi's disciple, so who dares touch me?
I remembered what Master told us in Zhuan Falun:
“There are a lot of yoga masters in India who can sit submerged in water for days or be buried underground for days, they can make themselves completely still, and they can even control their heartbeats.”
I thought that I would be alright even if I were unable to breathe, and began sending forth righteous thoughts to eliminate all evil beings and factors that were persecuting me. I asked Master to strengthen and save me.
I sent forth righteous thoughts, even as I was foaming from the mouth and drooling. I listened to Master's lecture that was stored on my phone, and eventually I fell asleep. When I woke up a while later, I felt perfectly fine. My body felt light and energized, so I continued my cleaning until all of the CCP materials were out of my home.
My gratitude toward Master is beyond measure. I am so fortunate to be a Dafa practitioner, under Master's constant protection and care. Fellow practitioners, let us try our best, relinquish our fears, continue forward whenever we encounter difficulties, and fulfill our vows well—Master is right beside us!
