She is a thin, petite lady, more than 60 years of age. She had been plagued by various kinds of serious illnesses before practicing Falun Dafa. She was tormented by vasculitis, almost to the point of needing amputation to save her life. After obtaining Dafa, she became more energetic. All her illnesses disappeared. She was illiterate and she could not even make a phone call. However, for some reason, she can miraculously read the book Zhuan Falun.
She decided to step forward to safeguard Dafa several times, but she was prevented from fulfilling her wish. Her family members interfered with her wish, and she didn't know how to get to Beijing. She was worried to tears and said: " I have let Dafa and Teacher down."
This July, she finally stepped forward, and followed a fellow practitioner to Beijing. She used her sincere heart to validate Dafa, and genuinely merged herself into the process of Fa rectification. After being sent to the detention center, she remained calm. She successfully broke through every tribulation, and was released nine days later. After she returned home, her family members refused to give her a single penny in order to prevent her from once again going to Beijing. She silently cultivated her heart.
National Day was coming. She took out 600 Yuan RMB, which she had saved by selling vegetables the whole summer. She spent 300 Yuan RMB on printing the truth-clarifying materials of Dafa, and would use the remaining 300RMB to go to Beijing to safeguard Dafa. She looked for the opportunity to step forward. Finally, there were some fellow practitioners going to Beijing. She followed them to Tiananmen Square and unfurled a banner reading "Falun Dafa is good."
She looks very soft and weak, yet her heart, which is filled with Dafa, is incomparably strong. She is illiterate, and thus cannot speak flowery language, let alone write magnificent, soul-stirring poems. She even cannot express the law, but she has understood. She did it and has dissolved herself into the Fa. She has stepped out of herself.
I don't know how many practitioners still "persist in cultivating" at home under the cover of various excuses. But I really know that we should keep up with the step of Teacher's rectification of the Fa if we steadfastly cultivate Dafa. The Fa has already been explicitly stated, but you still do not move. Could it be said that the heart is genuinely cultivating?
