(Clearwisdom.net) It is every Fa-rectification-period Dafa disciple's mission and responsibility to validate Dafa. Since July 1999, when the persecution began, I, along with millions of Dafa disciples, used many different methods to validate Dafa and save sentient beings. There were many times that I experienced supernormal manifestations of Dafa. Recording the facts about the miracles of cultivation is also validating the greatness of Dafa.
Before cultivation, I was very weak and sick, and even at a young age I had to rely on medication every day. I had many diseases and was so sick that I lost a lot of hair (each day, I lost at least 80-100 hairs). I often counted each hair that I lost and was always sad and worried about it. It was very difficult for me. While I was very sad and had little hope in my life, a classmate of my son's brought me a copy of the book Falun Gong. As I read the first two pages, I was enlightened immediately that it was a wonderful book which teaches people how to cultivate. I was very excited and moved, seeing that there was a good path to walk through life. I felt like I was barely surviving with my life in a critical state. I decided to begin Falun Dafa cultivation practice. Just as I had the thought, I suddenly felt that all the blood in my body, from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet circulated quickly several times. Suddenly all the symptoms of discomfort disappeared. I felt so relaxed and had never before had such a comfortable feeling, which surprised me. That night, I slept well. The next morning, while I was combing my hair, I touched the comb to see how much hair had come out. However, there was no hair at all in the comb. I was so surprised that I could not believe my eyes. I then combed the hair more forcefully but still did not find any hair that fell out. I combed my hair with my hands, and there was still no hair lost. I took off my sweater to look for any hair but still could not find any that fell out. I then looked for hair on my pillowcase and the floor but I didn't find a single hair. These miraculous occurrences made me believe in Dafa without a doubt. This is the genuine Buddha Fa. I have since cultivated Dafa with determination.
During the period when I was being tortured in the labor camp, I didn't cooperate with the brainwashing methods used by the guards. One guard always criticized me while pressing on the table with his hand and ordered people who were assigned to watch me to torture me. At those times, I began sending forth strong righteous thoughts to have the guard be assigned to another job. Five days later, the guard indeed left and was assigned to another place. He was in his fifties and was assigned to go to work in the kitchen. He had to get up for work at 3:00 a.m. One inmate who was assigned to watch practitioners usually reported what Dafa practitioners said, and cooperated with guards to persecute practitioners. Because of this, the inmate was rewarded and she didn't need to work. I sent forth strong righteous thoughts, “Let her work.” Three days later, the guards ordered her to work along with the other inmates who were assigned to watch practitioners. She then suddenly started becoming paralyzed because the work was very hard. I persuaded her to be nice to practitioners, and later she changed a lot. These two times while I sent forth righteous thoughts, I witnessed what Master had said, “Dafa disciples' righteous thoughts are powerful” ("Dafa Disciples’ Righteous Thoughts are Powerful" from Essentials for Further Advancement II)
After I was released from the labor camp, all my books were gone, along with three phone books, because police officers had ransacked my home. I was very sad. With the help of fellow practitioners, I obtained more Dafa books, but I can't remember how many times I cried. I criticized myself for not cultivating well. As a result it was a great loss. What could I do to make up for it? I searched many times for these phone books in drawers next to the side of the bed, but they obviously were gone. Nonetheless every day I searched again and was always thinking about the people with predestined relationships from my phone books. Master saw that my heart was merciful and I was striving to save sentient beings, so he helped me. Once again I pulled open the drawer. The phone books were there intact. I was very happy and excited and immediately realized that it was Master who helped me. I cried and tears flowed down my face. I immediately began pressing my hands together (heshi) and said over and over again, “Thank you Master. I will definitely do the three things well to make up for my mistakes.”
These are my true experiences while cultivating in Dafa. I am writing about them to validate the Fa and wake up sentient beings. I hope that people with predestined relationships can be saved. The miracles and supernormal abilities demonstrated from Dafa disciples' righteous thoughts and righteous actions are a manifestation of Master's and Dafa's mighty power in human society. Let us be diligent together and do the three things well.
