Experiencing the Miracle of Being Elevated in Falun Dafa

(Minghui.org) I was fortunate enough to find Falun Dafa cultivation, which changed my life and purified my heart. With the guidance of Master Li Hongzhi and Dafa, I was able to go against the tide of this materialistic world and become as pure as a lotus flower.

As I was on my way home from clarifying the facts about Dafa one morning, I saw a couple strolling around. I greeted the woman and said she had a very peaceful temperament. She felt my kindness and started to chat with me. She told me that both she and her husband were retired from working for the municipal government. She said she was 62 years old. I told her I was two years older than her.

She stopped and looked at me with a surprised expression. She then immediately called over her husband who was standing behind her, and said, “Look at how young she looks!” She asked how I took such good care of myself. I replied, “I don’t have to, as I practice Falun Dafa.” Afterward, I began to clarify the facts to them while we walked together.

“I Don’t Know Why, but I Just Wanted to Come Your Way!”

They listened attentively. In the end, I asked, “Are both of you Party members? Did you quit?” She said she saw posted stickers that read, “By quitting the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) organizations, one will ensure one’s safety,” but she didn’t know how to quit. So I helped them quit and asked them to check with their son to see if he also wanted to quit the Party.

I gave her two USB flash drives to circumvent the Internet blockade, one for them and the other for their son. I explained to the son that he could go to the Epoch Times website to renounce his membership from the CCP organizations. As long as one is sincere when submitting their withdrawal, it will count. I also said I hoped they would use the software to learn more true information about Falun Dafa.

The woman said excitedly, “For me to run into you is our predestined relationship. I don’t know why, but I just wanted to come your way.” I explained, “Heaven knows. Perhaps it was arranged for us to meet today so you could learn the truth and ensure your safety when calamity strikes.”

I said, “A pandemic can come at any time. Only by sincerely reciting, ‘Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!’ and quitting the CCP can one avoid the plagues. I also hope you will pass this phrase on to your friends so they can ensure their safety.” The wife said she would, and cautioned me to pay attention to my safety.

I recalled afterward what that lady mentioned about the posted stickers she had come across. When I clarified the facts to people, they sometimes mentioned seeing information about Falun Dafa printed on paper currency, but I hadn’t heard anything about the posted stickers. Another practitioner then helped me start a project to put up more stickers.

In the beginning, we went out together at night to put them up. Later on, I did it all by myself. During the past few years, other practitioners printed the stickers. I then took them home and added truth-clarification notes before posting them outside. I’ve done this continuously for six years.

While I was reading Master’s new lectures, I came across these passages:

“With any project or any task, if you decide not to do it, then don’t do it; and if you do decide to do it, then you definitely have to do it well and carry it through to the end.” (“Fa Teaching Given at the 2010 New York Fa Conference,” Collected Fa Teachings, Vol. XI)

“Many things have been brought to completion by Dafa disciples cooperating together, and many have been completed by Dafa disciples working independently. Nothing that you encounter is by chance, and quite possibly each and every thing was arranged as it is in history. So, don’t underestimate what you do or work on. Everything may seem completely ordinary, and not seem to have any special significance, but, in other dimensions, it is bringing about enormous transformations.” (“Fa Teaching Given at the 2010 New York Fa Conference,” Collected Fa Teachings, Vol. XI)

I enlightened from Master’s Fa teachings that putting up sticky notes is also a truth-clarification project. No matter what we practitioners do, we must do it well. We shouldn’t slack off, nor get relaxed, as this is our duty and mission. I also enlightened that as practitioners, we should treat the Fa as our guide and maintain our xinxing. Only by cultivating in Dafa can we be safe in doing any project.

The Fa Changes My Notions to Resolve a Family Conflict

My father is 92 years old. His health is good, and his mind is still very clear. However, he has often done things out of stubbornness which caused conflicts between my family and my brother’s family. As a result, our families have not interacted with each other for years. I wanted to snap out of this conflict, yet I was moved by it from time to time, feeling very bitter and tired.

Last spring, I stopped going to the study group and decided to recite the Fa at home in the afternoon instead. During the process of reciting the Fa, I experienced tremendous transformations both physically and mentally. Dafa purified my heart, changed my notions, and helped me realize the root cause of our conflict. This came down to the fact that I positioned myself wrong.

During the process of reciting the Fa, Master’s words targeted my heart. I truly felt I was being cleansed. I can’t express my feelings of enlightening to the Fa principles and getting elevated. I was often so absorbed in my reading that I didn’t want to put the Dafa book down. I could only feel the existence of my mouth and mind working in unison, as well as holding the book.

Without noticing it, I let go of my resentment. I didn’t feel I was wronged or treated unfairly. Even though I always said I didn’t want to get involved in my relatives’ matters, I was deeply moved by them. Actually, every bad thing that happened around me was my fault. Every single time, it was me missing the opportunity to improve my xinxing. I was wrong to blame my relatives. They actually came to help me improve.

When I went to visit my father, the nanny told me that my brother had surgery to address his leg pain. However, he didn’t want me to know about it.

I ran into my brother at my father’s place a little over three months ago. He said he was suffering from severe leg pain, even to the point of having difficulty walking. I told him that Falun Dafa has amazing healing effects. But before I finished, he shouted and swore at me. So I turned around and left. We hadn’t seen each other since.

After hearing about my brother’s surgery, I felt quite guilty. The nanny cautioned, “Please don’t go see him; otherwise, he’d know that I told you about his situation.” I didn’t want to make things difficult for the nanny, so I told her I wouldn’t go, yet deep down I still wanted to see him.

A Family Wedding Brings Reconciliation

My brother called a few days later asking if I wanted to attend his wedding. He wanted to go with me and also invited me to his home.

When I went to my brother’s home, my sister-in-law cordially greeted me. My brother was resting in his room upstairs. When I saw him, he talked to me about the entire process of his surgery. I listened attentively, while comforting him from time to time. This was the first time that we had peacefully spoken with one another for the past few years.

The next morning, I went back to his home with some gifts, 1,000 yuan in cash, and an MP3 player loaded with Dafa podcasts. I could see that my sister-in-law was very excited. In our chat, I apologized to her, “It was all my fault, my xinxing hadn’t been elevated, so you didn’t get to see Dafa’s beauty. I’ve also hindered you from understanding the truth about Dafa. I’m so sorry.”

My sister-in-law lowered her head and was quiet. I told her about the MP3 player I brought for them, which contained true stories of how practitioners who attended Master Li’s lectures in person had benefited from Dafa. She accepted it, but returned the cash.

I now occasionally bring food, as well as more information about Dafa, to my brother and sister-in-law. On my way there, I also clarify the facts to people. Around the time of World Falun Dafa Day, the Minghui.org website published many articles on celebrating Master’s birthday, and the Dafa character formation activity in Taiwan. So I downloaded them to my laptop and showed them.

My sister-in-law later said, “Sister, please give me a copy of the Dafa books, as I also want to learn!” So I got a copy of Zhuan Falun for her, and told her how precious the book is and what she needed to pay attention to when reading it.

She replied, “I want to ask you a favor. At the end of this month, your father will have his birthday. It happens to be when I’m going out of town for a wedding, and I have to leave the day before. Can you and your brother take your father out for dinner that day, so he won’t feel lonely? I’ll certainly take him out when I get back.” I agreed.

I went to a restaurant the next day to see if I could book a large room. The manager said: “Someone already came and booked a larger room for you.” When I went over there, I saw my brother. Right then, a waitress came and told me there would be an extra fee to host more people, which meant I would be paying for my brother. I knew this was my opportunity to improve my xinxing, so I shrugged my shoulders and agreed to pay the extra fee.

After the dinner for my father, my brother left before us. My husband and daughter then went and paid the bill, which was close to 1,000 yuan. When we saw each other off, both my brother’s son and daughter-in-law said, “My aunt, you are so broad-minded.” I replied, “This has to be attributed to Falun Dafa. It’s Dafa that changed me!”

A few days later, I went to my brother’s home to see if my sister-in-law had started learning Dafa. She said her son told her, “I won’t eat out with my father anymore. Shame on him! How can it be my aunt's fault, it’s all my dad’s fault.” Her son had ignored me for the past few years.

When I went to my father’s home, my father asked if I paid for the meal that day. I told him that my husband did. He got very upset, “He controls my bank card, and he didn’t even take care of the bill for my birthday party.” My father is a retired senior cadre, his salary was quite decent. He also had term deposits, but they were in my brother’s hands as well.

I replied, “Dad, for all these years, you have fought with your son over money. Please let it go and don’t get upset about these matters anymore. I did what I could do, you have to thank Falun Dafa for that.”

My sister-in-law has now begun to learn Dafa. My brother also began to check out new Dafa materials and podcasts. He completely recovered from his surgery. When his son saw me, he greeted me warmly. Our conflict that cut us off for close to ten years was completely resolved. Thank you, Master! Thank you, Falun Dafa!
