Struck in the Head by a Wooden Rod
I started practicing Falun Gong in 1994, and live in the countryside.
In 2009, I along with a few others were building a house for my family. We needed to move a cement mixture to the top of the house using a horizontal rod. The horizontal rod was made from very hard wood. I was trying to lift more cement, so I hung two barrels of it on the rod. As I was pulling the horizontal rod down, the wire hook couldn’t withstand the weight and the two cement barrels fell to the ground. The heavy horizontal rod struck my head with great force. I felt as if something was passing down from the top of my head and along my spine, and stopped when it reached the tailbone, which alleviated the downward force. I didn’t feel much pain on my head, but experienced great pain in my lower back for over 10 days. I had difficulty turning over in bed.
A solid hardwood rod nearly 8 inches in diameter had hit my head with such extreme force, yet I didn’t feel anything – except for the pain in my lower back. I realized that if I weren't a Falun Dafa practitioner, and without Teacher's protection, I would've been killed from this blow. Thank you to Teacher for giving me a second life.
Dangerous Icy Bridge
I am a practitioner in China, and started practicing over five years ago. I have experienced various hardships throughout the cultivation process and thank Teacher for His compassionate protection!
We experienced two days of rain in our area; it was very cold and many road surfaces were frozen. During the evening of January 14, I was biking home and had to ride over a very steep bridge. I lost control of the bike as the wheels started slipping, then fell off the bike. The road was covered with ice, and I started to slide back down the bridge with my bike.
I thought that I was going to die at that moment, but when I thought of Teacher, I felt very peaceful inside. I wasn't afraid, and knew that I was going to be fine – that Teacher would save me. I shouted, “Falun Dafa Is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” Gradually, the slide slowed and the direction changed as well. Finally, I stopped by the bridge railing. After checking myself carefully, I wasn't injured anywhere and the bike was also in perfect condition. My clothes were a bit frayed and the bike's paint was slightly scratched.
I told my family what had happened when I got home. Falun Dafa saved me - Teacher saved me!
Teacher's Law Body Protected Me from Mortal Danger
I am a practitioner from the Hunan Province countryside. I started practicing Falun Dafa in 1997. The past ten years of cultivation practice have brought me and my family great fortune, especially my experience this past July, which makes me more determined to cultivate in Falun Dafa.
There was a heavy rain which lasted for two days in early July last year. We had just planted seedlings a few days earlier, and they hadn't rooted yet, so I was very worried that flooding would destroy the seedlings. However, I was afraid of going outdoors, so I asked Teacher to protect my seedlings.
The rain lessened on the third day, so I put on my raincoat and went to the field on the backside of the mountain. I was surprised to see that the whole field of others' seedlings was flooded, and a lot of seedlings were floating on the water - except my seedlings.
I was relieved, and was on my way back home when I heard a big noise above my head. I looked up the mountain and saw a huge landslide crashing down on me. I was so frightened that I closed my eyes. At that moment, Teacher's Law Body appeared in front of my eyes. Teacher moved his right hand, and the landslide crashed around me.
I realized that I was unhurt, and opened my eyes to look up at the mountain. I saw that the landslide had split at about 30 feet above my head, and looked like a “figure 8” around me.
It was so scary! Had I not been a practitioner, I would probably have been killed. Thank you to Dafa and Teacher!
Teacher Protected Me through Three Life-and-Death Tests
I am a 62-year-old practitioner from Yunnan Province, and started practicing Falun Dafa in August 1998. Before I began practicing, I suffered from various constant ailments including the flu, fever, nosebleeds, stomachaches, etc. All of these ailments disappeared after I started practicing Falun Gong, and now I'm a healthy person. I thank Teacher for His compassionate protection, and will share three life-and-death tests that I have experienced.
The first tribulation was in 2001, when I was performing labor at a construction site. I loaded a truck with soil, then rode in the truck to help unload the soil at another location. The truck hit a large bump, and I was thrown about 6 feet away from it. A hoe flew over my head as I was sitting on the ground. The driver shirked any responsibility by blaming me for not sitting correctly in the truck. I said, “It’s OK. Sorry.” I understood that Teacher had protected me from danger.
The second incident was in 2004, when we were tearing down an old building. I was hit by a falling door frame, and my head went through the door frame's glass. The hat I was wearing was damaged and there was a big scratch on my thigh. I followed Teacher and looked inward. I realized that I had cleaned out over 500 or 600 used bricks which were taken away by others, and that I often quarreled with non-practitioners, and didn’t cultivate my speech. Teacher gave me a hint in order to help me improve my xinxing, remove the attachment of fighting for profit, and practice according to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. All troubles and hardship are good opportunities to remove these attachments.
The third incident occurred in 2006, when we were tearing down an old abandoned building. I was cleaning out some used bricks when suddenly, a door fell from the second floor, striking my head and back. My body was trapped under the doorframe, and the right side of my face was cut by broken glass; I ended up with 4 stitches. The building owner even blamed me, since I was the only one who was hit. I understood that I was a practitioner, and might have been killed if not for practicing Falun Dafa. I don’t hate the other people for saying those things, and I only thank Teacher.
Cultivation is such a good thing; it has made me eliminate attachments to fame, fortune, bad things and old scores. I am working towards becoming a very happy, selfless, altruistic and righteous enlightened being.
