Cultivation Experiences of an Eight-Year-Old Dafa Practitioner

June 26, 2012 |   By Miaoxuan, a young practitioner from Shanxi Province, China

(Minghui.org) I am eight years old and in the second grade at school. Both of my parents practice Falun Dafa. At a young age, my mother taught me how to read Zhuan Falun and memorize Lunyu and Teacher's poems from Hong Yin. I would like to share some of my cultivation experiences.

One time when I was doing the fifth exercise, the sitting meditation, my legs were in so much pain that I started to cry. My father told me that I should ask Teacher for help. I said to Teacher in my mind, “My legs hurt very much.” Gradually, the pain lessened and I was able to finish the one-hour meditation. I then went to school and saw many shiny Faluns rotating in the classroom. This helped me to cultivate more diligently.

When I was doing the sitting meditation another time, I saw in another dimension that “Evil” was trying to take advantage of “Compassion.” While Compassion sat still, Evil kept moving its legs and said to me, “Uncross your legs since it hurts so much!” However, Compassion said, “Hold still and keep your legs in the double-lotus position!” In the end, Compassion won, as I took Compassion's advice and kept my legs crossed until I completed the exercise.

My father and I sat down to do the meditation exercise together last Sunday morning. After we finished, my father wanted me to study Zhuan Falun. When I got to the section about spirit possession in Lecture Three, my mind couldn't stay calm anymore, because I wanted to go and play. At that moment, in another dimension, a monster who wanted to eat me repeated three times, “Don't read it.” I became afraid, but then thought: “I am a Dafa practitioner and I shouldn't be afraid of a little monster.” I said in my mind, “The Fa rectifies the universe and eliminates all evil!” The little monster immediately disappeared. Then, a big monster and a bloody red hand came toward me. As I was unable to get rid of them, I called out, “Teacher, please help me!” The big monster and the bloody red hand immediately disappeared.

When we finished studying Lecture Three, I told my father about Teacher helping me to eliminate the monsters. He was very pleased and said that Teacher gives every practitioner special abilities to eliminate the evil. If a practitioner can't solve the problem, Teacher will help and so will the righteous gods.

One time when I was sending forth righteous thoughts with my father, many little monsters tried to interfere with me. I eliminated them, row after row, although it appeared as if there was no end to them. Suddenly, I saw a mountain with its big mouth open and moving toward me, wanting to eat me. When it got close, it was pushed away by an enormous hand. I then heard a voice say, “You must be diligent! Help the schoolmates around you!” I was very happy and willing to help my classmates learn the facts about Falun Dafa.

My father often downloads experience sharing articles by young practitioners for me to read. The articles have helped me quite a bit in clarifying the facts to people. The first time I tried talking to people about Falun Dafa and the persecution, I advised one of my good friends and another classmate to withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party's various youth organizations. I have also been thinking that I should clarify the facts to more people.

Since my school has added a break at midday, I have started using that time to study the Fa. Then I do the exercises before going to sleep. On weekends, I join my father to do the three things that Teacher asks us to do. I would like to say to all young Dafa practitioners, “All of us must be diligent.”
