(Minghui.org) I was suddenly awakened from a deep sleep by sharp abdominal pain at around 11 p.m. on October 12, 2014. I remember it well.

I felt intolerable pain on both sides of my stomach. The pain came on fiercely, as though something was attacking me. Even lying flat on my back hurt, it hurt so much that I did not dare to move or take a breath. With much difficulty I forced myself to sit up and lean against the headboard of my bed.

I wondered: "What is happening here? Where did I not do well in my Falun Dafa cultivation practice that has allowed the evil to have an excuse to persecute me like this, forcing me towards death?" The pain then kept me from thinking further. My internal organs felt as though they were being violently twisted and tugged. No words can describe the pain and discomfort I felt.

I settled my heart down and decided not to look within any longer. I just maintained one thought: "I am Master Li Hongzhi’s disciple so I will continue on my path of cultivation in a steadfast manner. No matter what shortcomings I may have, I will correct them based on Dafa. Everything will be decided by my Master and I will only follow Master’s arrangements."

I communicated to the beings in my body in other realms. I directed a thought toward them that no matter what grudges I may have had with them in the past, I was now a Falun Dafa cultivator and I wanted to ‘benevolently resolve things’ with them. “If I did wrong to you in the past, I sincerely apologize. I am sorry. If you choose to ‘benevolently resolve things,’ please immediately leave me.” After that, I recited Master’s lecture about benevolently resolving things from my memory. Then I sent forth righteous thoughts to clear my own dimensional field.

Second by second, time passed and the pain gradually eased. After I finished sending righteous thoughts at midnight I lay down in bed. Around 2 a.m., I was awakened by the pain again. I immediately sat up to send righteous thoughts until the alarm went off. I got out of bed and practiced the Falun Dafa exercises. After that, the sharp pain disappeared, leaving just a slight feeling of discomfort when I breathed. I then went off to work as usual.

However, late that night I was awakened on two occasions by sharp pain.

The pain tormented me greatly but eased after I sent righteous thoughts. When the pain reoccurred a third time, I finished sending righteous thoughts and got out of bed.

I thought, “Since you do not let me move, making it hurt even to breathe, I will practice the exercises. I will practice “Buddha Stretching a Thousand Arms” (Chapter II, The Great Way of Spiritual Perfection) and when I stretch, you have no place to hide; I will stretch you (evil elements) to death." I finished doing the first exercise and went back to bed. Leaning against the headboard, I fell asleep without realizing it.

When I woke up, it was already past 5 a.m. and the pain was gone! I immediately washed up and went to work. Everything returned to normal. Once the thought is righteous, the tribulation disappears. I really now understood what Master said:

“If thoughts are righteous,evil will collapse”(“What’s to fear,” Hong Yin Volume II)

At work, I felt lethargic and sleepy, but after taking a nap for 50 minutes, I woke up full of energy.

Of course, after this tribulation passed, I calmed down, looked within, and corrected myself based on the Fa. I found that I had many attachments. Now when sending forth righteous thoughts, I disintegrate them and get rid of them. I discovered a lack of diligence in doing the three things that Master has requested us to do. Especially in respect to clarifying the truth to save people, I had not been consistently diligent in doing so.

As I continue to cultivate and correct myself based on the Fa, my cultivation state has changed greatly. Thank you, benevolent great Master!

These are some of my true experiences. Kindly let me know where there is room for improvement.
