(Minghui.org) I have practiced Falun Dafa for over 22 years. Master has been looking after me, awakening me, encouraging me, and helping me.
Master Awakening Me
I started to practice Falun Dafa in early 1997, after which my health improved. People in my village saw the amazing health benefits of Falun Dafa and also stepped into the practice. Within months, dozens of villagers started practicing the Falun Dafa exercises at my home every day.
I was not in a good state in late 1997. I thought I was not able to practice because I still suffered from many illnesses. I packed up all my Dafa books one night to give them away the next day, as I wanted to give up the practice.
I went to bed early that night. In a dream, I saw Master looking at me benevolently and saying, “Whoever practices Falun Dafa will reach consummation in the end.” I woke up and realized that Master was telling me that I was definitely able to cultivate and reach consummation. I resumed my practice the next day.
I was ashamed of myself whenever I thought about this incident. My enlightenment quality was poor. Actually I didn’t know what cultivation was about at that time. I only practiced Falun Dafa to treat illness. But Master didn’t give up on me.
I watched Master’s video lectures “Explaining the Fa for Falun Dafa Assistants in Changchun” and “Teaching the Fa at the Conference in Singapore” organized by the county assistance center in 1998. I learned that Master had resided in the United States. I felt sad and didn’t understand why the Chinese government was so stupid and didn’t cherish talented people, such as our great Master. I didn’t like the government but couldn’t tell anyone that I cried a lot.
I missed Master very much, and couldn’t hold back my tears. Master’s law body appeared in front of me, looking at me for over 20 days.
When I was doing the second exercise one day, Master’s law body comforted me. He said, “Please do what I had told you.” I was very touched. I realized that Master asked me to stop crying, and follow the Fa principles.
Master Taking Care of Me
I became destitute in 2002. I returned home during the autumn harvest season and stayed for several days. One day I received a call from the director of the local police station. He told me that they would not harass me, and I could stay at home. I believed him and felt at ease at home.
That night as soon as I lay down on the bed, a male voice said to me, “The ordinary people would rather imprison you than let you wander around.” I realized that Master was protecting me. So the director of the police station was lying. Several days later a group of police officers came to my home to arrest me. Thanks to Master’s help, I was able to escape.
Early one morning in 2010 I was still in my bed. A male voice said to me, “To be responsible to the Fa, and to your sentient beings.” I didn’t understand what he meant.
That night I was told that police had searched practitioners’ homes recently. Thus, I should hide anything related to Dafa in a safe place. I realized what these two phrases meant. Master was asking me to hide those Fa tools. I put away my computer and printer.
Three days later dozens of police officers and guards searched my home. They didn’t find anything and thus did not arrest me.
Master Encouraging Me
May and I were forced to leave home in 2003. We rented an apartment in the city. She cultivated well and had a high xinxing level. She became the local coordinator. She was busy every day and didn’t come to the rented place until midnight.
One day another coordinator asked me for May’s whereabouts. She was missing and everyone was worried. Several days later we heard that she had been arrested and detained in a detention center.
I was attached to her emotionally. I cried a lot for the next two weeks. One morning when I was doing the sitting meditation, I saw May appear in front of me in a meditation position. She looked calm. All of a sudden she became a Buddha who looked sacred and beautiful. I was dumbfounded. I realized that Master let me see this. She was already a Buddha. Why did I cry for her every day? Master encouraged me to be happy for her. I stopped crying.
I was detained in a forced labor camp in 2005. Because I was not able to bear the pressure, I unwillingly wrote the three statements, promising to give up Falun Dafa cultivation practice. I felt very bad after writing it. I decided not to follow the orders or demands of the guards. I refused to work or write thought reports and didn’t attend any more activities.
I memorized the Fa for several months after that and enlightened that I should rescind the three statements I had signed by notifying the guard team leader. She denied having received my statement. I told her that I would not leave if she didn’t give it to me. She ordered two detainees to drag me back to the cell.
Two practitioners in the cell asked me if I had gotten back my statements. I was very upset and cried.
At that moment Master appeared in the air in front of me, wearing a red cassock, and sitting on a cerise lotus. He was looking at me with a smile of compassion. I was thrilled and told other practitioners that Master came. But they couldn’t see him. They admired me very much. I dried my tears and looked at Master for a long time. Master came to see me and encouraged me to firmly cultivate in Dafa.
Help from Master
I distributed truth-clarifying brochures in a village in 2001, and got lost when trying to return home that night. Although I got to a square, there was no one to help me.
I saw several big boxes under some iron benches, so I lay down inside one of the boxes to have a rest. I heard someone knocking at the bench. I came out but didn’t find anyone. I lay down again, and again there was another knock. It was louder this time. I didn’t find anyone. At that time a car drove by. Its light brightened some place in front of me. I saw a shop that I was familiar with. This was my town square. I knew where I was at. I realized that the knocks on the iron bench were arranged by Master, to help me find my way home.
One incident took place when I just started practicing Falun Dafa. I still remember it vividly. I entered into another dimension one night in 1997 before I went to sleep. I was suddenly surrounded by a group of strong men. Some of them had big baskets on their backs while others were shouldering two baskets using a pole. These baskets were empty. They asked that I repay my debts. I was terrified and didn’t know what to do, as I was not able to pay back anything. I wanted to find a place to hide. Just then Master came and stood among them. He did a set of great hand gestures for them. They all left after Master finished. No words could express my gratitude to Master.
I realized that during the reincarnation of my lives, I owed many, many debts. Master solved them for me. Only Falun Dafa can save me.
I have passed dozens of tests of sickness karma during the past 20 years. Due to Master’s compassionate protection, I was able to make it through. I firmly believe in Master and Dafa. I know Master is with me all the time.
The transparent Falun have been turning before my eyes every day since the autumn of 2000. I can see them whether I have my eyes open or closed. The Falun have accompanied me for 19 years. Master has opened my third eye for me, to reinforce my confidence in cultivation. Master encourages me despite my not having repaid all my karma.
