Falun Gong Practitioners' Benevolence Changed Me

Prior to 1999, I had never heard of Falun Dafa. After the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started persecuting Falun Gong in 1999, I started hearing more about it. Later, the CCP concocted the 2001 Tiananmen self-immolation incident, as well as vicious rumors such as “practitioners going insane” and their committing “murder and suicide.” I believed the lies the CCP told to frame and slander Falun Gong, so like millions of other Chinese, I blindly started to hate Falun Gong and practitioners.

Fortunately, Dafa practitioners were able to forbear my hatred, resistance and ridicule. They constantly told me the truth about Dafa. At the end of 2006, I finally understood, and I realized that all of the CCP's propaganda against Falun Gong was a pack of lies. I am so grateful that practitioners never gave up on me, as I am so fortunate to practice cultivation in Dafa.

After I obtained the Fa, I realized what it means to be truly happy and how wonderful it is to be a practitioner. Master said,

“As a practitioner, your course of life can be altered. Only through cultivation practice can your life be altered.” (Lecture Two, Zhuan Falun)

In the past more than five years of cultivation, by continuously assimilating to Dafa my life has changed significantly, from living in pain and suffering to a happy and wonderful one. Poisoned by CCP culture, I used to be a firm atheist, now I truly realize and feel the miracles and what is bestowed on us by Master's grace.

My Mental and Physical Health Were Renewed on the Path to Return to My Origin

Before I obtained the Fa, although I was still young, I had been suffering from many health issues, such as periarthritis of the shoulder, cervical spondylosis, irregular blood-sugar level, lack of energy, and so on. My physical condition often caused me to be depressed and anxious.

Master said,

“We do not practice qi here. You do not need to practice such low-level things, and we will push you beyond it, making your body reach a state free of any illness.” (Lecture One, Zhuan Falun)

“The most obvious thing is that your body will be purified very quickly. Many people in Mainland China know that cultivation in Falun Dafa is simply too miraculous! Upon starting the practice, the illnesses will be gone. Why is that? Many people did not seek after healing illnesses. They think that the Dafa is good, so they practice it! Their illnesses were healed as a result. However, sometimes there are people for whom the effect is not very good. Why was it not good? If someone hears that practicing Falun Dafa can heal illnesses, so he comes to practice it with the purpose of healing illnesses. Then, his illnesses will not be healed. 'Gain naturally without pursuit.'” (“Lecture in Sydney”)

I followed what Master taught to truly improve my xinxing. My body was soon purified and all my diseases disappeared. In the past five years, I've never had any medical expenses.

Since I started cultivating, I have become very healthy, calm and peaceful.

While I do the exercises, sometimes I'm able to experience some supernormal abilities Master mentioned in the Fa, such as having celestial eye open to see another dimension, or sometimes I'm able to know what others think. In the past, all of these would have seemed incredible to me, but now I've experienced it myself. The power of Dafa quickly disintegrated the evil factors of atheism in my mind.

Re-establishing Traditional Virtues Brought My Family Harmony and Happiness

Frankly speaking, before I obtained the Fa, I was a person who liked to chase after fame and fortune and indulge my desires. When I was very young, I already had many boyfriends. I constantly hurt others and also got hurt by others. At that time, I was like a poor lost lamb and I did not know what the true meaning of life was.

After four years of marriage, I met with a family crisis. In fact, my husband treated me well. However, I felt that he was unworthy and that he did not understand me. Later when I asked him for a divorce, he was deeply hurt.

Fortunately, right then, I started practicing Dafa. The principles of Falun Dafa rectified my deviated thoughts. Through Fa-study, I realized that as a woman, I should be virtuous and dignified and I should be gentle and considerate of my husband. A great predestined relationship must have brought us together to become husband and wife in this lifetime.

I started rectifying myself according to the principles of Dafa. When I encountered conflicts with my husband, I searched inward first even if on the surface, it was not my fault. I began to take good care of my husband and do more housework. Sometimes, I share my thoughts with him using the principles of Dafa and traditional culture. Now we no longer fight and we live in harmony.

In the past, the relationship between my mother-in-law and I was not good. I often got into conflicts with her. Later, she told me, “In the past, you never even said hello to me when you saw me. Now you've become so filial and nice!” Now I respect all elderly people and I'm considerate of them. I have taken on all the major household chores. The family and even the neighbors praise me.

Before I became a practitioner, I did not know how to properly educate my children. I either just blindly accommodated them, or spanked and scolded them. After I obtained the Fa, I rectified my behavior according the principles of Truth-Compassion-Forbearance and changed how I treated our children. Now I patiently reason with them and guide them to recognize their own mistakes. Dafa has also helped our children gain more wisdom. Now they receive good grades and often receive awards in school.

Dafa saved my family, that was on a verge of being broken. My family has now become harmonious and happy. Since I began practicing Falun Gong, my family and I have been greatly blessed.

Improving My Xinxing Helps Smooth My Relationships at Work

After I became a practitioner, I understood why human beings are suffering and life is tiring.

Master said,

“Anyway, it’s a blessing to learn Dafa. Dafa will bring good fortune to its disciples after they let go of ordinary human attachments. Good fortune, however, is definitely not obtained by being attached to becoming a big boss.” (“Lecture at the First Conference in North America”)

I face all difficulties at work with ease. I work diligently, and no longer care about personal gain or loss. I just do my best to be responsible and get the job done. If one truly conducts oneself according to the principles of the Fa, many difficulties can be easily resolved. I've become more considerate of others and actively cooperate with others at work. I am no longer plagued by the complexity of intrigue and relationships and I'm no longer afraid of the pressure of work. I feel very relieved.

I know that all of these are because I practice Falun Dafa. It is Dafa that brings me blessings. It is our compassionate great Master who gives me grace. Dafa helps me understand that the real purpose in life is returning to one's true origin. Dafa has helped me find the true happiness in life.
