(Minghui.org) I started practicing Falun Gong, also known as Falun Dafa, in 1998. In the past 22 years, the great, compassionate Master Li, the founder of Falun Gong, has protected me from tribulations all the time. He has also given me hints when I faced tests. If it were not for Master, I would not be what I am today. I am so lucky to be a Dafa disciple. Many thanks to Master!
Sulfuric Acid Did Not Ruin My Fingers
I lost my job and my family when I was released from a forced labor camp in 2005. Although it was painful, I did not fall apart because I had Dafa in my heart. Later, a relative found me a job in an analytical testing lab.
On one occasion, the head office wanted to check on the work our laboratory had done, so we had to work overtime every day. My job involved a lot of chemical reagents, including strong acid and alkali, which are very corrosive. One drop can burn a hole in cloth and injure the skin.
One day, the fingers on my left hand started to burn even though I was wearing gloves. I realized that the strong acid had touched my fingers. I ran lots of water over them, but it was too late. The pain was unbearable. I felt uneasy and did not know what to do.
The pain was so intense that I couldn’t calm down or send righteous thoughts. I suddenly thought of Master and asked for his help and, instantly, my fingers no longer hurt. I was so moved that I burst into tears. I knew that Master had borne the pain for his disciple. After a while, I could meditate and send righteous thoughts.
Escaping Arrest
Before the opening of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) harassed and arrested Falun Gong practitioners nationwide. I was renting a house at that time and had no registered address so the local 610 Office did not know where I was.
I went to our group Fa study site on my bike one afternoon and was involved in a traffic accident on my way back. I don’t know what happened. When I woke up, it was the next day. I found myself in a hospital bed hooked up to an oxygen tube in my nose, a urinary catheter, and an IV. Two police officers were standing next to my bed.
I was a little confused, but I quickly realized what had happened. I would never accept the persecution—Master has the final say. I asked Master to help strengthen my thoughts. I sent forth righteous thoughts nonstop to eliminate all interference and refused to answer any of the officers’ questions.
I felt that I could not stay in the hospital, but the doctor would not release me. He insisted that my family had to sign the discharge paperwork. They called my elder brother and my younger sister to the hospital, but the police officers wanted to talk to them first.
I waited for my brother and sister. When they came that evening, they had strange expressions on their faces. They told me that we could go home. As I walked out of the hospital, the head of the 610 Office came over and said, “We originally wanted to take you to the brainwashing center, but you can go home now.”
I knew the evil forces that had tried to persecute me had been disintegrated. It was Master who again resolved this hardship for me. My heart was filled with profuse gratitude to Master.
Surviving a Traffic Accident
In July 2015, my electric bike was hit by a taxi. I was thrown a few feet and landed on the ground, face down. As the female taxi driver helped me up, my head was buzzing and my face felt hot. Because I’d hit the ground so hard, I lost a few teeth.
The driver was so frightened that her hands shook. She said in a trembling voice, “Let me take you to the hospital.”
I said, “You hit a good person today. I am a Falun Gong practitioner. I will be fine. There is no need to go to the hospital. I follow the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. I will not extort money from you.”
I then told her the facts about Falun Gong. When I encouraged her to quit the CCP, she said that in her family only her daughter had joined the Young Pioneers. She asked me to help her daughter quit that organization. From her tone, I could sense that she was calmer and more relaxed.
I told her to sincerely recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” I declined her offer to write down her phone number. I went home with my damaged electric bike.
On the way home, a young fruit vendor saw my injured face and asked me what happened. He asked me why I did not ask the driver for compensation.
I said, “I am a Falun Gong practitioner. I will be alright. Practitioners do not take money from other people.”
He said, “All Falun Gong practitioners are good people.” I clarified the truth to him and he took the informational materials I offered him.
I was shocked to see my face in the mirror. The right side was swollen and bruised, and my chin was bleeding. I had two abrasions in the palm of my right hand and they were still bleeding.
My injuries healed completely in one week and there were no marks on my face. I was very happy. Master not only saved me from this tribulation, he also helped me pay back a lot of karma.
