(Minghui.org) My husband and I obtained and read a precious book called Zhuan Falun during the 1997 Chinese New Year. Two months later, my factory director and deputy director both said I had changed. I pointed to Zhuan Falun and said, “It is this book that has changed me.” Four months after beginning to read this book and practice Falun Dafa, I realized that I had not been sick at all.

The director later borrowed a copy of Zhuan Falun and Essentials for Further Advancement, and he and his wife also started to practice. The deputy director invited me to his home to teach his wife the exercises.

Our practice site was in a wooded area in a small park. Exercise instruction was available every day. My husband and I started going to the practice site regularly in August 1998. We took turns, because our son was still little.

While doing Exercise Two, the Falun Standing Stance, and holding the wheel on either side of my head, my arms sometimes felt as if they were locked in place; while holding the wheel in front of my head, I could feel the power of Falun, and my arms were sucked into the circle and pushed out rhythmically. While doing Exercise Four, the Falun Heavenly Circuit, at times I felt so wonderful, as if my body didn't exist; and while doing Exercise Five, Strengthening Divine Powers, I could feel my entire body was gone. In winter, sitting in the snow doing meditation, I felt my entire body was nice and warm. When it was -9 °C (16°F) outside, I didn't need to wear gloves while doing the exercises, because my hands were very warm!

One day in the factory compound, I saw a pink cylinder about 7cm in diameter and 14cm in height slowly spinning toward me. Walking back to the office, I saw a small colorful Falun about 5cm in diameter spinning on the hallway window. When I leaned over to pick up a thermos bottle on the floor, I saw two colorful Falun about 5cm in diameter spinning next to the bottle.

After I started practicing Falun Dafa, my health and state of mind improved, and people feel at ease dealing with me. My boss does not have to worry about my work. Sometimes he says, “This matter is urgent, please get it done as soon as possible.” And I tell him, “It's done already.”

Around the time the persecution started, my bosses changed six or seven times, one after another like a merry-go-round, but none of them were unsatisfied with my work.

I went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa after the start of the persecution. I met many fellow practitioners from Shandong Province, Shanxi Province, and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region as well as Qinhuadao City. After I got back, my boss asked me where I had been, and I burst into tears - I had never felt so wronged before. He stopped asking me questions.

Once, a person tried to advise me to stop practicing Falun Dafa, and my boss said, “It won't work. Stop trying to persuade her.” One day, I ran into a retired former coworker on a street corner and she said, “You look so healthy.” I talked about Falun Dafa with her, and she said, “Please find me a copy of the book.” Later on she came to my office to get a copy of Zhuan Falun.

After the persecution began, my bonus at work was cut back and I was reassigned, but I still strove to do everything well. Although I have a background in electrical engineering, I was assigned to run errands like a temporary worker. Sometimes I was assigned to do painting and moving stuff. I was often assigned to receive visitors and take them to different departments for paperwork. I always had a smile on my face, because I took it as an opportunity to get to know people in every department and tell them how wonderful Dafa is.

Once, I was assigned to work in an unusual office that was very dirty. The windows had not been washed or the floor swept in years. Four men and a pregnant woman worked in the office. One of the men was divorced. He often got drunk and his health was poor. I cleaned the office during my breaks. I sometimes read them Dafa books or truth-clarification materials. One morning, the divorced coworker walked into the office looking miserable. He laid down on the couch as soon as he entered and complained about great pain in his chest. He asked me what to do, and I said, “Repeat, 'Falun Dafa is good!'” He said, “Please say it with me.” I said, “Sure. Start now, but you must be sincere.” In less than five minutes, he got up and all the pain was gone.

The pregnant coworker took maternity leave. I took over her job while she was gone, but when she returned I willingly let her resume her previous job. It sounds simple, but this can sometimes be a very difficult thing for non-practitioners to do. In the factory, I helped people understand the facts about Falun Gong and the persecution to everyone I came across and they would ask for informational DVDs that explained the truth.

My family witnessed the changes that occurred in me after I began practicing Falun Dafa. My parents and my sister-in-law all started to practice. My son grew up in a family where Falun Dafa was practiced and is therefore a traditional young man. After working for a year, he wanted to go to college. He took a three-month tutorial class and was easily admitted to the college of his choice.

My parents have many grandchildren. They all liked spending time with me every time I visit. Some of them loved watching the Shen Yun performance. They especially liked the dance "Wusong Killing the Tiger" and have seen it dozens of times. One day, I played the truth-clarification DVD entitled “The Days with Our Master,” and a child made comments full of enlightenment. Though she was little, she already had some understandings of Buddha and Bodhisattva. They also liked to learn the exercises, and could sit quite correctly in meditation. One day they all learned the exercise formulas. I think they would have all become young Dafa practitioners if the persecution had not taken place.

It seems to me now that everyone is familiar and part of my extended family. I am glad to help them understand the truth and hope every one of them can recognize their predestined relationship with Falun Dafa.
