(Minghui.org) I am from an ethnic minority in China. I began to practice Falun Dafa in 2010 and would like to share my experiences from the past three years.

Seeking the Right Way and Finding Dafa

I am 29 years old, a teacher at a countryside elementary school. Since childhood I have been seeking the true meaning of life. During my four years in college, I felt that I was seeking something every day, but never found it.

My father was diagnosed with liver cancer in May 2010. The doctor said that he was in the final stages and there was no way to save him. I remembered a relative who is a Falun Gong practitioner, who had once spoken to us about Falun Gong.

My sister went to our relative's home on May 13, 2010. She learned the Falun Gong exercise movements and returned home the next day with the book Zhuan Falun and Teacher's lecture videotapes.

My father began to recite "Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!" He could not read but he tried to do the sitting meditation. A few days later, he spit out some thick, black substance.

We knew that Master was purifying my father's body. Usually, a patient who has cancer will feel a lot of pain, but my father did not seem to suffer at all.

We had just started practicing Dafa and had many loopholes in our understanding and practice. The old forces took advantage of this and my father passed away in June, losing his chance to practice.

After my father's death, my sister and I believed in Dafa and Master even more firmly.

In July I carefully read Zhuan Falun for the first time.

I had had an operation in 2009 to remove gallstones and I was in constant pain afterwards. After I read the book, the pain disappeared as Master cleansed my body.

Doing the "Three Things"

The environment in my school was not convenient for my practice. Soon Master arranged a better way for me and I was able to do the exercises on Saturdays and Sundays.

I understood that Master taught us to do the three things. I started clarifying the truth to people Falun Gong whenever I had the opportunity.

(1) Clarifying the truth to colleagues: I usually talk to them from the angle of a third party. It is easier for people to accept the facts in this way. Now, more than half of my colleagues know the truth.

(2) Clarifying the truth to students: In class I tell my students stories from China's 5,000 years of divinely inspired culture. The students really like them. I also tell them to behave well and to be good people. The moral standard of the students has improved.

One day, a nine-year-old boy passed out in school. He has a brain condition and this happened several times. I taught him to recite "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." I told him that everything would be fine as long as he recited those words from his heart.

Later, I taught the whole class to recite these words and all the students recited them loudly. A boy in the front row had his eyes closed and his palms joined together in front of his chest in the Heshi position, reciting "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good" very loudly. It was astonishing, I could not hold back my tears.

Another time, I was telling a story in a 4th grade class. I asked the students: "Would you like to hear the true Buddha Fa?" The students all answered, "Yes!" They listened attentively.

(3) Clarifying the truth to parents: In June I went to visit one student at home because his father was very sick. His grandma was there too. I showed them a picturebook from Minghui. They were very shocked upon learning the truth of Falun Gong and the persecution. When I advised them to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), a total of five family members quit.

Even more unforgettable was that the grandma who is in her 70s, cried when I described the cruelty of the CCP and the wonder of Falun Gong. She did Heshi in front of her chest, saying quietly, "The real Buddha has come!"

During summer school I saw the boy's mother. She told me excitedly, "That's strange, my husband never believed in Buddha in the past. But after you talked about Falun Gong, he now believes in Buddha very much and his health has improved!"

Letting Go Of the Attachment to Emotion

Since I started to practice Falun Gong, about 20 men were introduced to me. I tried to maintain my xinxing and reduce my attachment to lust and desire. All of the situations were smoothly resolved. Among those men, I did speak to three because I felt that is was not easy for them to meet a Dafa practitioner, and I may have a karmic relationship with them from the past. Therefore, I used the opportunity to tell them about Falun Gong.

Model Teacher

After I started to practice Falun Dafa, I tried to abide by the standards of Dafa and become a model teacher.

When conflicts occur, I remember Master's words,

"In the workplace or in society, some people may say that you are bad, yet you may not necessarily be bad. Some people may say that you are good, but you may not really be good." (Lecture One in Zhuan Falun)

I consider myself a cultivator and there is nothing difficult for me. If others treat me badly, I do not care and I will pay them back with kindness.

I understand that every practitioner represents Dafa's image. I always dress neatly and in a dignified manner. I want to show people beauty from the inside out.

Above are some of my cultivation experiences from the past three years. I will continue to walk my cultivation path firmly, follow Master and return to my true home.
