(Minghui.org) I am a veteran Falun Dafa practitioner who started cultivating in 1996. During more than 20 years of following the Dafa teachings, I have experienced the joys of obtaining the Fa and saving sentient beings, and I’ve also had the sorrow of sometimes doing poorly the things a disciple is supposed to do. Today I’d like to share a few stories about some of my experiences while assisting Master Li, founder and teacher of Falun Dafa, in rectifying the Fa.
Protected by Gods
My nephew, Song, is a roofer in Beijing. One day in the summer of 2005, he was on a roof receiving the concrete, bricks, etc. that two coworkers on the ground were moving to the roof using an iron-framed belt. When my nephew didn’t see fresh concrete come up for a while he looked down and saw the two men lying on the ground. He called their names but neither one responded. He thought they must have been electrocuted.
He immediately came down from the roof, and found that the men were unconscious. He dragged each of them to a safe place one after the other, called their boss, and took them to the hospital. People on site asked him, “They were electrocuted on the ground because a high-voltage line fell on the house. Why were you not touched?” He said, “I am wearing an amulet. I have protection of the gods, that’s why I’m fine.” As he spoke, he took the amulet from around his neck and showed it to everyone.
Recovery is a Miracle
My other nephew, Jiang, also worked in Beijing. While doing construction work, he fell from the seventh floor and broke five ribs, one of which pierced one of his lungs. Doctors saw the x-ray of the injury and said, “He won’t survive this. Take him home and give him hospice care.” The other migrant workers begged the doctor, saying, “We all come from the same village. What should we say to his family if we bring him home like this? Please save him.” The doctors agreed to treat him only because of their earnest request.
After Jiang had been in the intensive care for seven days, the doctor was surprised to see that he was awake, his eyes were open and he was looking around. The doctor said that in his 20 years of medical practice, he had never seen a person survive such a serious injury. Jiang said, “Did you see me wearing an amulet? I have the god’s protection.” The doctor said his recovery was a miracle.
Jiang was transferred to a general ward for a month, and then he went home. It took him two years of rest at home to recover from the injuries. After two years of recuperating, he went back to doing heavy physical labor. He has been doing this work for more than ten years, and his health remains good.
I went to my hometown to visit my father in 2006. Upon seeing me, my niece asked, “Did you bring amulets with you?” When I told her I had some, she was excited and said, “Please give me one, I want to wear it. I haven’t worn mine for several days, and I felt uneasy.” I felt confused because I had previously given her one. She said that one of her friends had it. She said she didn’t want to give it to him at first, but the friend was going to Beijing to work, and he really wanted to have an amulet before he left. So, she gave him hers. He was happy about her letting him have it, and said he was envious that she had an auntie who practiced Falun Dafa.
I went to the countryside to clarify the truth in the summer of 2019. As soon as I walked into one village, I heard two people talking about being buried after they died. One farmer said that he would like to be buried on his family’s ancestral grave site after his death. Another person said he would like to be cremated after his death. I asked him why he chose to be cremated. He said that he was a retired researcher who enjoyed the benefits as a deputy mayor. His family would receive 100,000 yuan (approximately $14,800) after his cremation.
I asked him if he remembered the first sentence of the Communist Manifesto. He said he did not. I told him it was, “A specter, a communist specter roamed over Europe.” According to Chinese traditional culture, a specter is a ghost and devil.
He said, “The Communist Party is the ruling party after all. Can Falun Dafa defeat it?” I told him, “Falun Dafa is not fighting against anyone, nor is it worth defeating the Party. Falun Dafa is about cultivation, and saves people.” He said he already had a good life, and didn’t need to be saved. I asked him, “Do you dare to speak what is on your mind? No other political party in the world requires people to join it but doesn’t allow people to quit. On top of that, Chinese Communist Party (CCP) members have to swear to fight for the Party for the rest of their lives, and even be willing to give their lives for it.”
I continued to encourage him to think further about the true nature of the CCP, “You went through many CCP political campaigns. The Party has killed 80 million innocent Chinese people during its political movements, not to mention the college students who were killed in the Tiananmen Square Massacre, and the Falun Dafa practitioners who have been tortured to death. Think about it, it’s time to wake up.”
He said, “Give me another book and I’ll do some research on it at home.” I said, “You won’t have that long to do research. If you quit the CCP, the Buddha will protect you; if you don’t, the devil will control you. Nearly 400 million people have already quit the CCP. Intellectuals like you should be the smartest and the most able to see the problems.” While we were talking, the farmer thought about his membership in the Party. I encouraged him to do what his friend had done.
He said, “I’ve never thought about quitting the CCP in my life. I really don’t know what to do now.” I said, “Quit. The crimes committed by the CCP have nothing to do with you; if you don’t quit, you share the crimes the CCP commits.” He said, “What do you think I should do?” I said, “Quit the CCP and live for yourself.” He said, “Okay, I will follow what you said and quit, and will live for myself. I will read these books.”
I went out for a walk after dinner one day in the summer of 2016. I saw a man in front of me who was having difficulty walking. It turned out to be Damin, a man who came from the same village as I. I asked, “What happened to you, you are not even 60 yet?” He said, “I’m dying. The hospitals in Beijing cannot treat my illness, so I’m just waiting for my time to come.”
He said he didn’t want to die, he wanted to live and even dreamed about it. He was still a factory director and secretary at that time. I told him that I knew how he could survive the illness if he dared to do what I suggested. He responded, “I will dare to do anything as long as I can survive.” I told him to quit the CCP, and he immediately agreed. I gave him a pseudonym and helped him quit. I told him to recite, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” He said the words out loud. I told him, “When you go home, continue reciting those words.”
The next day I saw him riding a bicycle not far ahead of me. I was riding my electric bike. Upon seeing me, he got off his bike, and said, “You made me recover.” I was happy to see him well, and said, “I don’t have such a great ability. It is Master Li, the founder and teacher of Falun Dafa, who saved you.”
His family, neighbors, and relatives all knew that he was terminally ill, and wondered how he could recover so quickly. He told them that I suggested that he quit the CCP and recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” His recovery helped more than 100 people know the greatness of Dafa, and the evil nature of the CCP. Some people said that they would also recite the same nine words.
A few days later, I went to my hometown to attend my nephew’s wedding. Damin’s sister saw me and came over immediately, “Finally I found you, otherwise I would have gone to your house to see you. Please help my family quit the CCP and its youth organizations. My husband is a CCP member. I am a member of the Youth League, and our two children are members of the Young Pioneers.”
My nephew’s wedding day happened to be on May 13, which is Master Li’s birthday and World Falun Dafa Day. I had planned to stand on the steps of the house and tell the wedding attendees the facts about Falun Dafa, but it rained that day, and people stayed inside the house. I visited each room in which there were people and told them the facts about the CCP. Some said, “Today is the birthday of Master Li Hongzhi, and it is a blessing to quit the CCP and its organizations.” Some said loudly, “Quitting the CCP makes you safe. Falun Dafa is good.” The computer was playing a video telling the story of a rock found in Guizhou ln which appears the words “The Chinese Communist Party is dying.” People quit the CCP and its youth organizations and the process went well. Many people from the village and other villages, after they had heard the facts, also quit the CCP. The scene was very touching.
In the end, the only person who didn’t quit the Party was the CCP village branch secretary. He was helping receive the bride’s relatives. I was afraid that he would leave after the banquet, so I waited for him at the door. When he came out and saw me standing there, he quickly approached me. I told him, “I’m waiting for you.” I told him why he needed to quit the CCP. I explained that the CCP was a ghost from the West, had killed 80 million innocent Chinese people, described the fact that it has committed heinous crimes against the world, and explained that it has smeared Falun Gong (also called Falun Dafa) and persecuted practitioners. Its crimes have caused many natural and man-made disasters, all of which the CCP is responsible for, so the gods will destroy it.
After I finished talking, he agreed to quit. I said, “You still have two tasks after you quit. First, protect the Dafa disciples in the village. When the police come to arrest them, don’t lead them to Dafa disciples’ homes, try your best to protect them. You will get good fortune and rewards in the future, and the rewards can even be given to your ancestors. Second, if practitioners from outside the village come to help people quit the CCP or distribute some truth-clarification materials, don’t make trouble for them. Protect them.” He told me he would do these things, and said that he understood what I had told him.
A total of 28 people quit the CCP in two hours that day.
One of my relatives, a 60 year-old, was a migrant worker in Beijing in 2015. He said he recites aloud, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” while he picks up the screws on the ground at a work site. One day, an iron pipe that was two inches in diameter and four meters long fell vertically from the construction area above. It traveled alongside his head and stuck into the ground. He said, “An incident that Master Li talked about in the book Zhuan Falun has happened here, and what Master said is true.” From then on, he believed in Falun Dafa even more.
