(Minghui.org) I used to work as a manager in a state-owned enterprise, but then in 2000 I took early retirement and started working as a temp in a school. I kept Master's words in mind:
“Validate the Fa with rationality, clarify the truth with wisdom, spread the Fa and save people with mercy.” (“Rationality” in Essentials for Further Advancement II)
Letting People Know About Falun Dafa at School
In order for the teachers and students to understand the truth about Falun Dafa, I paid attention to my image at work. Before long, the principal took notice of me and commented that I was doing a good job. I realized that it was time to start talking about Falun Dafa to the people there.
As soon as I arrived at work one morning, a teacher complained that her foot was in pain and she wanted to go to the hospital to have it checked out. I asked her if she knew anything about Falun Dafa. She said that she knew a little, because one of her classmates had been fired from her government job because she practiced. I explained the truth about Falun Dafa and encouraged her to recite, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” sincerely, as it would help her. She later told me that she recited these phrases repeatedly and by noon her pain had gone.
The vice principal then came over and asked about her foot. She said that she was not in pain anymore, and explained how it got better. The vice principal smiled and walked away.
The teacher later told me that her complexion used to be dark and rough, even though she ate nutritious meals for years without any improvement. But now many people ask her what she did to make her face look rosy and healthy. She knew it was the result of reciting “Falun Dafa is good, and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” The more she told people about it, the better her face looked.
The teacher's son was a senior high school student. His head teacher told him to join the Youth League but he refused. I encouraged the teacher to have her son recite “Falun Dafa is good, and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” and he did. All three members of her family quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations.
After the College Entrance Exam, her son's scores were 30 points higher than both she and the headteacher had predicted. They believed it was because of their support for Dafa.
One morning, a fourth grade teacher brought a student to my office, who was suffering from a nose bleed. I was to look after the child until his parent came to get him. The student's nose was bleeding so heavily that a small pool of blood formed on the floor in just a few minutes. I told him, “There is no medicine to help you right now. Just recite 'Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good', it will help you.” He did as I suggested and the bleeding stopped within a few moments. The next day, the student's parent came to me and thanked me for teaching their son about Falun Dafa. I was very happy for them.
During a Physical Education (PE) class, a fifth grader fell over on the field and couldn't get up. His parent was notified and picked him up from school. Doctors at the provincial-level hospital could not treat him, so the family took him to Beijing for treatment. The doctors there had a T-shaped metal plate built around his upper thigh, and he needed a crutch to walk.
When the student returned to school, I told him about Falun Dafa and how he should recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” sincerely. The next morning, he came to school and shouted in the lobby, “Falun Dafa is good! Falun Dafa has made a miracle!” When a teacher asked him what he was saying, he said, “Falun Dafa is amazing! Look at me, I can run without using the crutch,” he added. The teacher was very surprised, and many students witnessed the miracle too.
The student had a classmate whose knee was in pain. The principal and other school officials came to ask about his situation. When they left, I said to the student, “Your classmate had a steel plate in his thigh and had to walk with a crutch, but as soon as he recited 'Falun Dafa is good', he could walk and run again. Why don't you try it?” He said that his classmate had already told him and he has started reciting it too. Some time later, when I asked him about his knee, he told me that he was not in pain anymore and that the doctor told him that the three tumors he had had also disappeared. The student later joined the school's sports team.
A PE teacher once twisted his foot badly at a local gym and had to be taken to hospital. After he recovered and returned to work, he did a similar thing again during a sports event. He had a class to teach, so he stayed at school limping. When his wife, who is the dean of another school, came to get him after school, I walked over to them with a Falun Dafa symbol in my hand. I gave it to them and told them miracles can happen if one recites “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
The next day, the PE teacher walked into the school without limping. His foot had recovered and he seemed to be very happy. I talked further to him and his wife, and helped his family of three quit the CCP. His wife had a medical examination sometime ago and the result was worrisome. After she understood the truth about Falun Dafa, a re-examination showed that there was nothing to worry about.
Their teenage son has undergone great changes after learning about Dafa. He kept a Falun Dafa calendar on his desk, became self-disciplined in his studies and daily life, and his grades improved. Now, he often reminds his parents to recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” The PE teacher was later promoted to become the dean of another school, and eventually he became a vice principal. He also started practicing Falun Dafa.
I met the school's principal one day, and said to her, “I've been working here for so long, let me update you about my work.” I told her about the many wonderful things that have happened to the teachers and students after they learned about Dafa. She listened intently, and then warned me to be careful because officials from the Bureau of Education check on the school every year. I explained the facts about the persecution to her and advised her to quit the CCP. She did, and was later promoted to become the principal of a much larger school.
The vice principal was in charge of my work. When I told her about the things that have happened to the teachers and students after they learned about Dafa, she said, “If saying 'Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good' can make good things happen to people, of course they should say it.” I then helped her and her son to quit the CCP.
One student's parent called to say that his son had very bad stomach pain and couldn't come to school. I talked to his father and encouraged him to recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” as it would be good for his son. When I asked him about his son a few days later, he told me happily that his son recovered quickly.
My Previous Employers Learn about Falun Dafa
The director from my old job called me one day and told me the company's senior management had been informed that I practice Falun Dafa. They seemed under a lot of pressure and wanted to talk to me urgently. I went there with righteous thoughts in my mind. Two senior managers tried to talk to me and get me to stop practicing, but I told them not to worry about anything.
I had previously talked about Dafa to the deputy director and advised him to quit the CCP. He was very interested in Shen Yun so I gave him a DVD of the performance, which he watched on his company's computer.
When a fellow practitioner talked to the director about Falun Dafa, he immediately announced during a large staff assembly that, whoever says anything about Falun Dafa would be sent to a labor camp. I approached the director in private and said: “You're a nice person. In the past, someone wanted to create trouble for me but you didn't let it happen. I thank you.” I tried to talk to him about Falun Dafa, but he seemed very uneasy. So I started talking about how one of his acquaintances who had cancer had recovered after reciting “Falun Dafa is good.” He listened intently. When I left, he thanked sincerely me with his hands pressed together in front of his chest.
Realizing the Seriousness of Cultivation
My gums hurt whenever I ate or brushed my teeth during that period of time. I even lost a few teeth and I felt worried about my cultivation. When the symptoms appeared again at a later time, I was more alert. I remembered that two fellow practitioners told me how wonderful the exercise “Falun Standing Stance” was, but I had neglected doing it for quite a long time.
Master was using their mouths to remind me to do the exercise. I immediately bolstered up my spirits and did the exercise for 75 minutes. My toothache disappeared and my gums no longer hurt after doing the exercise. I have deeply realized the seriousness of cultivation practice, and that I cannot slack off because of human thoughts. I realized my enlightenment quality was too poor, and I reminded myself that cultivation helped to remove my human attachments and improve my xinxing.
I deeply believe that I've only made it to today in my cultivation because of Master's protection. Every miracle that happened through truth-clarification was created by Master.
I will do the three things well, let more people know about Falun Dafa, and help save more sentient beings.
