(Clearwisdom.net) Master talks about predestined relationship, and I would like to share something related to this. I was going through excruciating physical pain which I could feel in my bones, so I thought to myself maybe I am not practicing enough and not studying the Fa well, so I should sit at home and practice more and study the Fa more.
But I was proved wrong because whomever is destined to get the Fa will come in your path and get it no matter what your state of health.
I started getting a series of calls from people interested in introductory sessions about Falun Dafa. I thought I just can't miss any opportunity to sow seeds of Dafa since there are so many sentient beings waiting for Dafa, and everything is pre-arranged or destined. I am not the one who is doing anything.
A friend told me about one Sangha where about 50 ladies were interested in learning the exercises. They learned the movements for a week and now they are practicing in their own homes.
At the practice site, someone asked me if I would be interested in visiting a friend who runs a play school. I readily agreed because I will never let any opportunity go by. She sent a small write-up to the parents about Dafa and asked me to come on a certain day.
No one turned up, and this lady looked very worried and embarrassed. and I kept on reassuring her, telling her that whoever is destined will get it. As we were chatting, I got to know that she is the sister-in-law of a popular Indian film star who died in a helicopter crash. She said she would like me to meet the actor's mother, as she had gone into a shell and was totally depressed after losing both her children in the air-crash.
I met the lady and she showed her willingness to learn the practice. I showed her the introductory VCD and she also practiced the exercises. She looked calm after the practice and there was a benign smile on her face.
A few days later a professor called me and told me that a year earlier she had told some people at Bharat Electronics about Falun Dafa and they had fixed up a day when they wanted me to introduce Dafa to the officers' wives. I showed them the VCD and taught them to do the exercises, and also got an opportunity to clarify the truth.
They were moved by facts about the persecution and showed a lot of compassion for the practitioners in China, and said they would tell others about it.
I realize now that all my aches and pain and sickness are secondary, once I get the call to go and spread Dafa. Once again, I feel nothing is in our own hands, as we walk on the path Master has arranged for us.
As Master says,
"You cant even control your own life let alone the lives of others. No matter how hard a person tries he is merely walking down the path of his own existence. You might seem to have obtained something with your effort when in fact it is inevitable.' ("Teaching the Fa at the Conference in Europe")
