(Minghui.org) I was in elementary school when the Cultural Revolution began. My father was attacked by the revolutionary rebels, so I also became a target for physical and verbal assault by the other students. Given the intense pressure, I dropped out of school. Years later I realize the disadvantages of my meager education.
I am amazed by some of my cultivation experiences. I asked another practitioner to write down some of them.
I began practicing Falun Dafa in 2014, but I had trouble reading Zhuan Falun, the main book of Falun Dafa, since I could be considered almost illiterate. I listened to the other practitioners when they read it.
In 2015 I was hired as a housemaid by a couple in their 80s. They told me that they were retired police officers. I was alarmed: What if they found out that I practiced Falun Dafa? Would they turn me in? I decided to quit. While I was packing, my copy of Zhuan Falun fell on the floor.
The wife saw it and asked what it was and if she could look at it. “No, you wouldn’t want to read a cultivation book,” I said. I was thinking, “I don’t want to be arrested.”
“No worries. We are not opposed to Buddha. You have done a good job for us, and we don’t want to see you go. Please don’t quit. May I read your book?”
I said she could borrow it and handed it to her.
As she read Zhuan Falun she occasionally gave me a “thumbs-up” and said, “This is a great book. Falun Dafa is nothing like what’s said on television and in the newspapers.”
I said, “The reports on TV and in the newspapers are all lies. The so-called Tiananmen self-immolation was staged to frame Falun Dafa. Unfortunately, it fooled many people. Anyone with common sense can see the loopholes in the footage. Falun Dafa has great health benefits. We are taught to be good people by following the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.
“My congenital heart disease disappeared shortly after I began to practice. The doctors could never help me. Falun Dafa also made me a nicer person. I had a bad temper before I began practicing Dafa. If people are allowed to practice Falun Dafa freely, China will be a beautiful place.”
She nodded repeatedly and kept saying, “How come we didn’t know anything about Falun Dafa for so many years?”
After the couple finished reading Zhuan Falun, the lady began to teach me how to read, and eventually I could read Zhuan Falun by myself. I was thrilled. I could not thank Master enough for sending me to this family.
I also taught them the exercises. Every day the three of us practiced together. The old couple became very healthy, and they recovered from many of their medical conditions. They appear much younger than others their age. Witnessing their changes, their daughter also began to practice Dafa.
One morning I went to do grocery shopping. I got to the supermarket before it opened and saw people waiting at a breakfast food stand next to a large propane tank. I waited with them for a while for the market to open but then decided to shop at a farmer’s market.
As I walked away, I suddenly heard an explosion. When I looked back, the propane tank was gone, and so was the breakfast stand. The area was filled with smoke. Many people had been injured or killed. What a disaster! I’d left just in time. Tears came to my eyes and I knew Master was looking after me.
When the old couple heard about the explosion, they were very worried about me. When I returned, the husband asked, “Where were you when the place blew up?”
I replied, “Thanks to Master Li, I had the urge to leave before the explosion.” We all put our palms together to thank Master for saving my life.
I later worked in several other homes as a housemaid. I always tell the family about Falun Dafa. Some with predestined relationships began to practice. I’m always aware of Master’s arrangement for me. I am determined to improve my cultivation and do the three things well.
My dear friends, when someone tells you about Falun Dafa and gives you a flier, please don’t shun them. Dafa will give you a bright future.
The Chinese Communist Party wants to destroy the human race. Its purpose in persecuting Dafa is to stop people from being saved and entering a bright future. Now, more and more people all over the world know about Falun Dafa’s beauty and benefits. Please give it a try.
