May 13th is Master's birthday. After my family finished the celebration of Master's birthday, we returned home. My daughter Cindy opened her e-mail, and she was excited to tell me, "A western young boy has decided to practice Falun Gong." The boy is a tenth-grade student. He is 15 years old and his name is Jon. His story is a long one, but you can see his predestination as the story unfolds.

1. Cindy's influence

Ninth-grade student Cindy began to practice Falun Dafa when she attended a Falun Gong bike trip last year. She was an energetic student at school. After she became a practitioner, she used the Fa's principles of Truthfulness, Benevolence and Forbearance to improve herself, and her behavior positively affected the students around her.

Because she was the team leader of a literature and arts group at her school, it was necessary for her to handle some conflicts. A student once yelled at her in front of others without any reason, but Cindy did not fight back. Moreover, she even smiled. Her schoolmates asked her, "Why are you so weak? Why don't you argue with him?" She smiled and said, "You know what? He gave me virtue, I should also thank him." The schoolmates were all confused, "What's wrong with you?" She then patiently explained to them some of the principles Master has taught us. Gradually, a lot of students talked to her about the Falun Gong principles. She was in the lowest grade of her school, but a lot of students from higher grades were asking her to help solve their problems.

One day, a tenth-grade girl came to see Cindy, and told her that she had fallen in love with a boy from another school named Jon, but she was too shy to get to know him. So she asked Cindy to help her to find out what kind of person the boy was. Cindy did not refuse to help. She used his email address to contact him and started to chat with him online.

2. Jon said, "I am a Buddhist"

After chatting for a minute, Jon told her, "I am a Buddhist." Cindy was very surprised. How could a western boy be a Buddhist? Jon told Cindy he usually went to the library to find some books to read and he was especially interested in Buddhism related books. So he considered himself as a Buddhist.

3. "Zhuan Falun" attracted his attention

In the beginning, he continuously told Cindy about the principles in Buddhism. Then Cindy told him some of the Fa's principles as taught by Master in Zhuan Falun. Immediately, Jon was anxious to find out about Zhuan Falun. Cindy told him to download it from the Internet.

The next day, Jon was excited to tell Cindy, "I was reading the precious book last night." He also told Cindy that when he was reading the book, he felt like his whole body was floating up and it felt really comfortable. His mind didn't have any distracting thoughts. He also told Cindy that he continuously read it for more than two hours.

4. Benevolent Master purified his body and gave him the confidence to practice

Jon said he had a dream on the night that he read Zhuan Falun. In the beginning of the dream, he was meditating in a small dark room. Suddenly the room turned into a very big lawn covered with many colorful flowers. Those flowers were very beautiful and he had never seen them before. Then the whole lawn started to revolve. He also revolved together with the lawn and was lifted up into the sky. He started to fly towards the sky, and he touched the stars all over the sky.

The next day he told Cindy he gave up smoking.

Because he was really anxious to practice Falun Gong, he spent 45 minutes and took a bus to come to our house to learn Falun Gong on Thursday after school. This was the first time Cindy met the predestined young boy.

How the story continues, we will leave for Jon to tell.
