(Minghui.org) I have practiced Falun Dafa for 23 years. Protected by Master Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Dafa, I have miraculously escaped arrest and persecution by the police on many occasions.
I also started to clarify the truth face-to-face in my small flower shop, set up a site at home to production Dafa informational materials, stepped up my effort to send forth righteous thoughts and disintegrate the evil, and let more people know the truth.
One winter I went to a large residential area to distribute truth-clarifying calendars, talk to people about Falun Dafa, and encourage them to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). In the beginning, I visited one family after another, and things went smoothly.
I was almost finished giving away the calendars, when I found a man following me, whispering to someone in the last family that I had just left. At that moment, it was as if someone was dragging me away; I subconsciously wanted to leave as soon as possible.
I waved goodbye to them calmly. As soon as I turned down another alley, I saw a police car coming.
Several policemen in the car were looking around as if looking for someone. I realized I might have been reported by someone.
Master protected me and helped me to leave that dangerous situation quickly. Another time my elder sister and I went to a mineral company to clarify the truth and deliver Falun Dafa DVDs.
The police arrived just after we drove away. There have been situations like this many times, and under Master's protection, there was no danger.
At noon on August 1, 2014, my elder sister and I went to a community to distribute materials far away from my home. She and I distributed the materials in separate buildings.
I went to look for her after finishing one building, and at that time, I saw many people gathered around, with police officers in the middle.
I realized that maybe something happened to my sister. At that time, there were more than 20 undistributed copies of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party discs and some truth-clarifying materials in my bag.
I walked quickly into the corridor of the building next to me and distributed the discs floor by floor. Then I took the elevator down and came out naturally and walked towards the gate of the community.
After a while, I heard a policeman running out of the building yelling: “Look, this CD was just distributed. I heard a person saying that there were two of them.”
Then one officer riding a motorcycle followed me. I felt my legs were like jelly at the time, but I wanted to stay steady.
Master's teaching appeared in my mind:
"Just by staying unaffected you will be able to handle all situations." ("Teachings at the Midwestern U.S. Conference")
At that moment the officer turned around and left. Listening to the sound of the motorcycle going away, I thought it would be nice if there was a taxi around.
At that moment, a taxi came slowly up behind me; Master arranged for the taxi to pick me up!
I returned home safely and I knelt in front of Master's portrait and looked inward.
I realized that my human notions had caused such a big incident that day. I also asked Master to save my sister and give me righteous thoughts to demand her release.
Because the community had surveillance cameras, I changed my clothing and went to the community security room. They said my sister wasn't there, and that she might be at the police station.
Two other practitioners and I were planning to go online to expose what had happened to my sister when my sister called me and said she had been released. She met an acquaintance at the police station who notified her family.
Thus her family members took her home. This was all due to Master's protection!
One day in the summer of 2007, two men came to my flower shop to buy flower baskets. I was very busy that day because my shop was a shop inside a shop.
Outside the flower shop was a mobile phone business, a business of which I am part owner. Since I was busy, the two men started to help me assemble flowers by themselves.
They said, “It's okay, you can work on other things, we can do it ourselves.” I thought they were very kind and wanted to tell them the truth and give them the opportunity to learn about Falun Dafa.
I clarified the truth to them while making a flower basket. They wholeheartedly agreed and quit the CCP.
That was the first time I dared to expose my identity in the store, clarify the truth, and persuade customers to do the three withdrawals. After sending them away and returning to the shop, a very touching sight appeared in front of me.
Many transparent Faluns were spinning in the air, miraculous and wonderful. I realized that Master was encouraging me to clarify the truth here to help people.
From then on, I began to clarify the truth in the shop and persuade customers to do the three withdrawals. For ten years, under Master's compassionate protection, no one reported me to the police.
I am very grateful to Master for his compassionate protection. Sometimes police came to my shop, and I, as the third party, helped them do the three withdrawals, and repeatedly told them, “Don't arrest Falun Dafa practitioners, and you will be blessed.”
After I completely got rid of my fear, business in the store got better and better. I arranged activities in the store every day as follows: After arriving at the store in the morning, I did the first four exercises first, and then I started to study the Fa.
On the counter, there was a DVD player that played the truth-clarifying disc, the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party brochures, discs of Shen Yun performances, etc.
Customers had opportunities to learn the truth. When I sold flowers to customers, I clarified the truth and did the three withdrawals for them and gave them the discs.
I regarded every customer as coming to me for doing the three withdrawals. I deeply felt that all of this was Master's arrangement and was for me to help people.
Every Dafa disciple shoulders the responsibility of helping people. My small shop was a shop inside a shop as I mentioned, it was inevitable that there were all kinds of music, which disturbed me.
I thought to ask others to lower the music volume several times. However, I eventually realized my thought was not right.
I asked myself in my heart, “Why can I be interfered with? How can I make that request of others?”
Master said:
"Therefore, in cultivation practice you should follow a higher and higher standard for yourself." (Lecture Four, Zhuan Falun)
I looked inward and found my heart was not pure. So I decided to turn a bad thing into a good thing.
Some noise provided me with favorable conditions for clarifying the truth because people outside could not hear me talking to my customers. When I clarified the truth, I spoke with confidence, which made others feel I was convincing, not doubtful and timid.
Therefore they were willing to do the three withdrawals. One year on Valentine's day, more than forty people did the three withdrawals at the store over a period of two days.
This store was actually my stall for helping people quit the evil CCP. When I thought about this, sometimes I felt very emotional.
One night, my daughter and I finished distributing the truth-clarifying materials and headed home. We met two men who seemed to be from other places and hurried on their way.
I gave them two brochures. Seeing that they were in a hurry, I didn't tell them about the three withdrawals.
After walking more than ten meters away, they suddenly called me from behind: “Can you do the three withdrawals for us?” It turned out that they wanted to do the three withdrawals a long time ago, however, they hadn't met Falun Dafa practitioners yet.
One of them said he was a village head, and both of them criticized the evil CCP for being bad, and both used their real names to do the three withdrawals.
On January 9, 2009, I set up a materials-production site. With the technical help of other practitioners, I bought a printer and a computer, downloaded and printed the truth-clarifying information from Minghui.org and provided the materials to several local practitioners for distribution.
The other practitioners wanted to pay me for the production of the information materials, but I told them I wouldn't charge them. The practitioners regularly came to my place to get the materials.
Once a practitioner was reported to the police and arrested while distributing the materials. Her son came to my store and told me his mother had been arrested and advised me to transfer the printer to a safe place.
I was a little panicked at first, but then quickly distributed all the remaining materials. After my family found out what happened, they wanted to move the equipment to another place.
I didn't agree. They were afraid of causing any trouble and moved the equipment somewhere else while I was not home.
I began to send forth righteous thoughts for a long duration to dissolve the evil's persecution. The arrested practitioner was detained for more than half a year but did not disclose the source of the truth-clarifying materials.
In 2011, one day when I was sending forth righteous thoughts, a very burly and tall golden Buddha statue with one standing palm approached me from far away and stopped about two meters away from me.
The statue shined with golden light. I was surrounded by a huge energy field, and my body was very comfortable.
I knew it was Master's law body. I was excited to receive Master's blessing.
Later, I realized that under the persecution at that time, it was necessary to have strong righteous thoughts to do the three things well and that everything was under Master's care.
Since then, I strictly required myself to send forth righteous thoughts every hour in the shop to clean up my own space field and the evil's interference.
In August 2015, I was harassed by the police because I sued the former CCP head Jiang Zemin, the culprit of the persecution of Falun Dafa, under my real name. It seemed there was an arrangement by heaven, as I moved overseas in January 2017.
On the evening of September 1 of the same year, four police officers broke into my home in an attempt to arrest me. My family told them, “You are late, she has already left.”
Before I went abroad, my daughter had just given birth to a second child. My two grandchildren are one year apart, and the eldest is a boy.
I knew that they all came to my family to obtain the Fa, but I was not by their side. It has always been my wish to help those two children obtain the Fa.
Master knows everything, and my dream came true in 2020. My daughter finally came to Australia to visit me with her two children.
During their three-month visit, I taught my grandchildren to do the exercises and study the Fa. They bowed to Master every day, shouting, “Falun Dafa is good!”
One day, I had a dream I would never forget. In the dream, I was a five or six-year-old girl.
I was allowed by Master to enter heaven. In the northwest, there appeared a large castle with glittering silver light, solemn and holy.
Master told me subliminally, “Go back, that is your home.”
The compassionate and resounding voice echoed in the sky. I didn’t know how to thank Master, so I let go of Master's hand, and went straight to my home.
The castle looked close to me in one moment, and was far away in the next moment, becoming a star. I thought, “When will I be able to go back home?”
This dream has always inspired me to cultivate myself well and do the three things well to return to my real home. Whenever I thought of this dream, I would burst into tears and be grateful for Master's mercy and salvation.
The purpose of writing this article is to validate Dafa and express my infinite gratitude to Master. At the same time, I hope that through writing this experience-sharing article, I can get back to my original state of cultivation.
There is no way for me to repay Master's grace. I can only diligently strive to help Master rectify the Fa!
