(Minghui.org) Mike (an alias) lost his job in the mid 90's and was therefore under a lot of pressure. He went to his sister's home in Southern China to live with her for a while. His sister was a widow with a seven-year-old boy. She had a difficult life after her husband passed away and she was not healthy.
She had a chance to attend Master Li's lecture in 1994 and afterward started to practice Falun Dafa. She became healthy and was no longer under stress. Mike often watched Master's lecture videos with her, did the exercises and attended experience sharing conferences. Later, he moved back to his hometown, where he met his future wife and found a job.
The sister had a dream about their previous lives and told him about it.
It happened back during ancient times, when Mike was a rich noble man with a kind heart and often helped others. His sister was a monk, who led a group of monks to wander around and spread Buddhism.
Once this group came to Mike's door to beg for food. Mike came out and happily welcomed them. He asked his people to cook fresh meals for the monks, because he thought it was impolite to give the monks leftover food. After the meal, the monk (the sister) preached some Buddha principles. Before they left, the monk told him that he would be rewarded for his good deeds.
The sister told him, “We all came to this world for Dafa after thousands of years of reincarnation. You should remember that Master is the closest person to us in this world. Practicing Dafa is most important. Only when we follow Master and practice cultivation, can we return to our true homes.”
After the persecution of Falun Dafa began, the sister was detained numerous times and incarcerated in brainwashing centers, and even sentenced to prison. Mike had to leave his new born baby in order to take care of his nephew for three years until his nephew went to college.
After his sister was released, he tried to persuade her to stay home for her own safety instead of going out to tell people about Dafa and the persecution. She told him with tears in her eyes, “You witnessed my changes after practicing Falun Dafa. I was a sick and stressed person, and am now a healthy and happy person. I cannot just think about myself and forget about others. People who were deceived and turned against Dafa will not have a good future. We need to let them know the facts about Dafa. You are a kind person, I hope you can understand and support me, then you are supporting righteousness and accumulating virtue.”
Mike understood his sister and has supported her ever since. Every time, when his sister returned to their hometown, he accompanied her to visit relatives. He supported her when she told them the facts about Dafa and the persecution.
Once, when they went to the home of her deceased husband, her brother-in-law told Mike to talk to her to stop talking about Falun Gong. Mike told him how his sister had benefited from the practice and why she clarified the facts to people. Later, all of her family members withdrew from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliates.
Mike also helped his sister to distribute informational materials about Falun Dafa. He helped her even during extremely cold days. Mike's sister told him to often recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance is good,.” to help their friends to withdraw from the CCP and its affiliates, and to read Zhuan Falun everyday.
Mike listened to her advice and he and his family were blessed. They are all healthy and his son grew up to be a good person His business also developed quickly and their income increased a lot. They bought a house and are about to buy a car. Mike is blessed.
