(Minghui.org) I am a new practitioner who finally obtained the Fa in 2020. My maternal grandparents and their five children all practice Falun Dafa, providing a good cultivation environment. Through this exposure to Dafa, I was already familiar with some aspects of Dafa cultivation. Furthermore, I had an unusual dream that laid a good foundation for my later entry into Dafa cultivation.
Many years ago, I took my child to stay with my parents. One day while I was there, in a state between sleep and wakefulness, I had a dream. I saw an evil, red dragon with a long tongue that was devouring people. Each time its tongue flicked out, a person was sucked in. It devoured several people in this way—it was terrifying. At that moment, I remembered the Fa-rectification verses my mother had taught me, so I pointed at the red dragon and recited the verses. Just then, a beam of intense light immediately shot out of my finger like a rocket, directly at the red dragon. Instantly, the red dragon wilted, its head drooped, and it fell to the side into a large ditch near my parents’ house. At that moment, my mother and several of my aunts appeared. They used hoes, shovels, and other farm tools to dispose of the monster.
When I woke up, my finger was still warm. I told my mother and several aunts about this amazing dream. They all practice Falun Dafa, and talked about my dream from that perspective. They all agreed, “You have very good inborn quality, and you very likely came to this world to obtain the Fa.”
My experience of actually deciding to begin Falun Dafa cultivation practice also occurred in an unusual way. As everyone knows, in China, the CCP has hijacked the minds of the Chinese people. It has repeatedly inflicted atrocities, one after another, on its people, causing immense mental pressure and fear for the Chinese people. Almost no one dares to cross the CCP’s red line.
I got married before July 20, 1999. My married life was good, my husband and I loved each other dearly, and our families got along very well, and visited each other frequently. Life was joyful. However, once Jiang Zemin’s regime began to defame and persecute Falun Dafa, my in-laws were poisoned by the CCP’s lies and began to reject me, and their attitudes became noticeably worse. I always felt that living such a sweet and loving life, holding hands with my beloved, was enough; I had no other desires in this life. But then, something unexpected happened.
Before the outbreak of the CCP virus, I was diagnosed with a herniated lumbar disc. This can be a serious illness, and in severe cases, it can cause three bends in the body. My father-in-law, an expert in this area, said it was incurable, that surgery couldn’t guarantee a cure, and that I may become permanently disabled. Under his direction, my husband filed for divorce. I readily agreed and quickly went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to complete the divorce proceedings. My husband then took me back to my parents’ home.
My mother was not surprised by this sudden marital breakdown. Before this, she had a dream where two swallows flew to our house; one of them was circling in the air, reluctant to leave. My mother said, “Your destiny has arrived. Since this illness is incurable, surgery offers no guarantee, and worldly relationships are unreliable, you have no other path but to cultivate Dafa!”
And so, I naturally began practicing Falun Dafa. Through studying the Fa, practicing the exercises, and with the selfless help of other practitioners, I quickly and fully recovered.
