(Clearwisdom.net) I began to practice Falun Gong in 1997. At that time I practiced and cultivated diligently, so both my body and mind were greatly purified, and I was the happiest person in the world.
However, I did not persevere, and gradually slacked off after the persecution of Falun Gong started on July 20, 1999. I felt ashamed and wanted to catch up whenever I read articles how fellow practitioners were doing the three things well. However day after day, I could not cheer myself up although Teacher reminded me many times with his divine force. I saw that my world was so miserable that the sentient beings in my world all changed from bad to worse until they were evil creatures. It was my fault. It was my attachments that were enlarged by the evil beings. I was trapped in it. The suffering in my heart was growing and I felt even more and more depressed.
Suddenly one night not long ago, I saw a scene that I will never forget in my entire life. Music seemed to have come from all directions, or exactly from heaven. The music sounded everywhere and brought with it an incredible fragrance. A Buddha dressed in a half-translucent white robe came down from the sky with his eyes lightly closed, his palms held together in a heshi gesture. He looked serene and compassionate, and was followed by countless Buddhas and Bodhisattvas dressed in clothes of different colors, in different appearances, but all with solemn expressions. They flew slowly around in the sky. Flowers and unknown green fruit in every part of the sky came down from heaven. Thousands of golden rays were pouring down from the sky like rain. I exclaimed, "Is this the legendary Fa-rectification?" I stretched out my hands toward the sky to feel all these unexpected wonders. However, a practitioner, who had been trapped in self-cultivation, shouted that I should retreat to another side. Looking at the splendor of the sacred fruits in the incredibly colorful sky, I was shocked, felt painful and regretful. I thought that I did not deserve to see all of this.
It is Teacher's mighty forbearance that has allowed me to see this magnificent scene. Today, I wrote it down to remind all those who, like me, haven't cultivated diligently, to let go of their attachments, do the three things well and return to the divine path.
