After 47 Years, My Wait is Finally Over

April 12, 2004 |   By a Dafa practitioner in Sanhe City, Hebei province, China

(Clearwisdom.Net) I am 67 years old. I live in Sanhe City, Hebei Province. When I was 20 years old, my grandfather told me: "When you grow up, you must have a kind heart and never do things against your conscience. I am too old, but your generation will be able to see good times; people will be able to eat well and live well. But when that time comes, people's hearts will go bad. They will commit many bad deeds and will even be unable to distinguish right from wrong. When that time comes, heaven will weed out the bad people and only good people can remain. There is an account for everybody, and all the good and bad things that one has done are recorded. Everything one has done will meet with good or bad returns. When this time comes, human beings will be very miserable, but at that time someone will come to save mankind."

Forty-seven years have passed by and I had tasted all the flavors that life has to offer, except sweetness. In 2002, my husband suffered a stroke. At that point, some Falun Dafa practitioners introduced us to the practice. I was so excited that I couldn't sleep for two nights. It is the best thing that one can have. Through listening to and learning the Fa, I realized that Zhuan Falun is a precious book that can save all living beings and Teacher is the person that can save mankind. Sometimes at night I can clearly hear sounds from other dimensions that I couldn't hear before I practiced Dafa. Many diseases that have plagued me for years have disappeared.

Through learning the Fa, I understand that time is precious so I don't dare to waste even a minute. With the help of veteran practitioners, I closely follow the progress of Teacher's Fa-rectification and cultivate diligently and solidly. Teacher said,

"Saving all beings is first and foremost, and clarifying the truth is the way to save people." ("Teaching the Fa at the 2003 Atlanta Fa Conference")
I understand that the present is a golden time to tell people the facts about Falun Dafa and save all things. So I let go of my fears, and everyday since 2002, and have gone house to house to tell people the truth about Falun Dafa. I put truth-clarifying booklets and CDs in people's hand and tell them: "Come and learn what Falun Gong is really like. Falun Dafa teaches people to follow 'Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance'. How could a person who persecutes 'Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance' not be a good person? A man who attacks 'Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance' must be an evil man. Teacher comes to save people. Please remember that Falun Dafa is good and 'Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance' is good. Your entire family will have a wonderful future! After you understand the truth and know that Falun Dafa is good, be sure to let your relatives, friends and neighbors know the truth too." Now every day when I tell people about Falun Gong, I receive many thanks from them. Everyone is waiting for Dafa practitioners to tell them about Falun Gong.

Once I went to visit my parents. During the 800-mile trip, I told the passengers on the bus what Falun Dafa is really like and gave them some truth-clarifying booklets and CDs. Then two men on the bus threatened to send me to a police station. At that moment I thought that I should let go of my fears and let go of life and death, and I should be open and upright, as I am coming to save them. So I started to send forth righteous thought and then told them about Falun Dafa. Eventually I headed off the danger. It was just like what Teacher said:

"If you are not afraid, the factor that would make you afraid will cease to exist." ("Eliminate Your Last Attachment(s)")
I am still a new practitioner and do not know many Fa-principles. But I believe in Teacher and Dafa, and I believe that what Teacher gives us all are the best. I will do what Teacher tells me to do and keep my righteous thoughts and righteous actions. Now I understand what my grandfather told me when I was 20 year old: "After you suffer for half your life, you will be very lucky to obtain the Fa. What a good fortune you have!"
