(Clearwisdom.net) In the summer of 1992, a friend of mine told me that there would be a Falun Gong study class at the provincial Party committee assembly hall, and that the practice was good. We attended the lecture in the afternoon. As we found vacant seats and sat down, Teacher was on stage answering practitioners' questions. I earnestly listened to Teacher explain supernormal abilities, gong potency, cosmic language, animal possession, cultivation insanity, and the importance of practicing only one cultivation way. These were unanswered questions I had when I practiced other forms of qigong. After a few days, another friend of mine gave me a Falun Gong introductory text with a yellow cover. I read it several times, and was deeply moved by the superior Fa principles and profound connotations. I decided to give up other qigong practices and practice only Falun Gong.
Right at the beginning Teacher cleansed my body. I used to have a lump on my neck that hurt a little bit after a week of practicing Falun Gong. One day I saw Teacher and mentioned it to him. He looked at it for a while and said, "That's all right, don't worry." Several days later the lump disappeared--Teacher had removed it.
Another time, I fell on the way to Fa study one night, and the back of my head hit the ground, which immediately caused a big lump. I didn't worry about it and continued on to the Fa study. The next morning, I felt my head and the lump had disappeared. In the subsequent process of practicing the exercises and studying the Fa, my illnesses gradually vanished. I am filled with infinite gratitude towards Teacher.
Teacher's graciousness and mercy are for every Falun Gong practitioner. At every practice site in the city, we often saw Teacher. One morning, Teacher quietly came to our practice site. He looked around, walked behind a practitioner, grasped the hand above that practitioner's head, and then forcefully pushed it toward the ground. That practitioner used to be a Buddhist, and Teacher had helped her to eliminate some interference. Then Teacher went to the side of a practitioner who had been operated on for cancer and stood there for a while. Obviously, Teacher was cleansing her body. That morning, Teacher quietly cleansed the bodies of seven practitioners without them realizing what he had done.
Teacher personally selected the exercise site for our group of over ten practitioners. It was a corner of the park that was flat and spacious, with trees on three sides and a fresh breeze. There was a pavilion nearby. We practiced in such a serene and beautiful environment, and felt very joyful and grateful for Teacher's thoughtful arrangement.
When the seventh class at Changchun was ending, practitioners felt it was difficult to leave Teacher. Everyone wanted to take a photo with Teacher, and he agreed to it. Teacher stood on the steps and practitioners lined up. One group of practitioners came up, had their photo taken, and left. They were followed by another group, and another group, as if someone was directing us. It took over two hours to take all of the photos, and it occurred in an orderly way.
Every time I recall the many touching scenes of Teacher's compassionate care, and teaching practitioners, I can't control my feelings. Teacher has taken on so much in order to save the universe, the human world, sentient beings, and practitioners. Teacher's mercy will forever stay in practitioners' hearts.
