I am in my 50s. When I was a little girl, I enjoyed reading, but didn’t have much to read because I was raised in a poor family. After I grew up, I continued to enjoy reading, and was greatly influenced by how the literature presented things like fame, profit, and sentimental feelings. I developed an attachment to sentimentality and love. However, I was unfortunate in love, as my husband betrayed me again and again. I consequently developed a strong attachment to fighting, resentment, and jealousy. I quarreled with my husband and his partners. We owed a lot of debts. My husband gambled and was not responsible, so we got divorced.
I felt inferior after my failed marriage. I was still very attached to sentimentality. I felt that I lost face, and I led a very difficult life alone with my daughter. I then made the mistake of having an affair with a married man.
It was Master who helped me with all of this. Otherwise I couldn’t have ended the affair. The man tried to stop me from leaving him, but that didn’t change my decision. Instead, I persuaded him by insisting that I follow Dafa's principles, and then he started practicing Falun Dafa.
My sister’s son owed over 100,000 yuan. My sister was very upset about it and wanted to commit suicide. I persuaded her from a cultivator’s perspective, helped her to pay off the debts, and told them the consequences of not paying their debts. I showed her son how to be diligent and save money, instead of blaming him for wasting money. I taught him how to be a good person based on Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. My sister has now started practicing Falun Dafa, and her son has gotten rid of his bad habits. He repeats the phrases, “Falun Dafa is good” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” and he quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations.
My mother developed a fracture in her femur neck when she was 70 years old. I brought her to my home and read the Fa to her. I asked her to memorize Hong Yin. She hadn’t attended school, but within a few days she could read the characters in Hong Yin, and her pain was alleviated.
I was once arrested for going out to clarify the truth, and was held at a detention center for over 20 days. My mother was lying in bed at home alone. Not only was she dealing with her health issues, but she was now also under the pressure of my being arrested. She urged my sister to rescue me. Under Master’s protection, and strengthened by fellow practitioner’s righteous thoughts, I was rescued by my relatives and left the detention center. My mother also understands that Dafa is true cultivation, and is the Buddha’s Fa that has been spread in the world. My mother recites, “Falun Dafa is good” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” The pain in her leg went away, and she could walk by herself. She was thankful to Master.
When I go out to clarify the truth to save sentient beings, I meet people who live miserable lives. I feel they are also fortunate however, because Dafa disciples are not afraid to clarify the truth to them. They are thus able to learn of the Buddha Fa, and that atheism intends to ruin people. They can then quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations so that they can enjoy a good future.
I met an elderly man who lost his feet because of diabetes. He didn’t have children and his spouse had passed away. He had a part time personal care attendant who prepared food for him. I told him about the persecution of Falun Dafa, but he thought Falun Dafa wanted to gain political power. I said, “There are many people outside of China who practice Falun Dafa. Are they interested in obtaining power in China?” He suddenly understood.
He believes in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. I gave him an mp3 audio player with some songs composed by Dafa disciples, and he was moved to tears, saying that he knew it was saving him. I visited his home frequently. Each time I went there, I brought gifts for him. He trusted me and once asked me to deposit over 19,000 yuan at a bank for him. I treated him as if he were an elderly person in my family, and his xinxing improved. I read Master’s lectures to him. He said Master is so good.
Two months later, he developed cerebral infarction and lost consciousness. When I heard this, I transferred his money to his sister so she could pay his healthcare bills. His sister was surprised that I had her brother’s bank information. I told her I was a Falun Gong practitioner. I then clarified the truth to her about the persecution. In this way, she learned that Falun Dafa is good, and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.
One night I met a young man in his 20s who had night blindness. He sat at a corner of a street and looked hopeless. I asked him why he didn’t return home. He said it was because of a delayed bus. When it got too dark, he couldn’t see, and he didn’t have enough money to take a taxi. I gave him a ride.
On the way to his home, I talked to him about the persecution of Falun Dafa. He said he had read some news on Facebook. I said there are also some posts by CCP agents on Facebook. I suggested that he use dynamic Internet technology to break through the Internet blockade. I told him about the importance of quitting the CCP and its affiliated organizations. I then met his mother, who believed in a lesser Daoist practice. I talked to her about the persecution facts, but she didn’t want to listen. I said, “You believe in deities so you should quit these organizations that are atheistic.” So she quit, and so did her son. Because of her son’s disability, she was very sad and developed severe pulmonary heart disease. I told her to let go of that lesser Daoist practice, as only Dafa can truly save people. Because I helped her son and cared about them, she was moved and burned those books she was studying. She wanted to study Dafa. I gave her an mp3 player, brought her a copy of Zhuan Falun, and gave her some truth-clarifying materials, including a DVD of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. The family has been saved.
I once met a person from my hometown, who was the same age as me. I hadn’t seen him for a few years, and was surprised that he had changed so much. He couldn’t see and hear very well. I loudly told him the facts about the persecution, that the Tian’anmen self-immolation was fake, and that the CCP persecutes Falun Dafa and will be punished by heaven. He agreed and wanted to study the Fa.
I tried to help him. I gave him an mp3 player so he could listen to the Fa, and taught him to do the five sets of exercises. I called him, and he could hear me. Every time I called him, he could memorize one poem of Hong Yin. After he memorized thirty or so poems, he started memorizing Zhuan Falun. He learned one sentence each time I called him. His diseases, his skin problem, and back and foot pain all disappeared, and he was no longer sad. He is very thankful for Master’s salvation.
On my journey of cultivation, I gradually let go of my attachments, such as to fighting, resentment, and jealousy. My heart is no longer heavy. I feel very energetic, happy, and my life is easy and simple. My energy comes from my Dafa cultivation.
