(Clearwisdom.net) I began Dafa cultivation nine years ago and have experienced many tribulations from my family, the local community and my work place, particularly after the onset of the persecution on July 20, 1999. Nevertheless, I was able to overcome those difficulties with the power of righteous thoughts and righteous acts. I would like to share some of my experiences.
A couple days ago I accidentally had my MP3 player with 4 batteries thrown into a washer along with the clothes. The washer soaked the clothes for 20 minutes, started washing and completed the whole cycle in about another 30 minutes. When I started drying clothes under the sun I discovered that my beloved MP3 had been in the laundry. I almost fainted and thought the MP3 was ruined for sure. It would take time to find another one like it and it would be really inconvenient. I hated myself for being so careless. In the evening it was time for practicing the Dafa exercises. I looked at the MP3 player, went ahead to replace the batteries and tried to see if it worked. As soon as I pushed the power button and play buttons, I heard the exercise music and I was so indescribably happy! I said in mind several times from the bottom of my heart, "Thank you, Master!"
Once, on a winter morning about 9 o'clock I went downstairs carrying some very heavy things. When I was about four steps away from the bottom of the stairs, I misstepped and fell. I was in pain and could not move. All of a sudden I recalled Master's words. I told myself, "It is all right, it is all right," and struggled to get up. I was helping someone take care of their market stall at the time. My ankles hurt severely by 3:00 p.m. I walked with a limp, but insisted on completing the shift that was over at 5:30 p.m. It was completely dark outside and I walked with a limp toward a bus stop. On the way I stopped and posted some materials with the words, "Falun Dafa is good" and, "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance is good" on a wall. After I had done, I started walking toward the bus stop again. I was amazed that my ankles did not hurt with the first step, and did not hurt at all at the second step. When I got home I was still worried about my ankles and thought that my ankles were still a little hurt, so I went straight to bed. The next morning I checked my ankles. They were somewhat swollen. I stepped on the floor and tested my walking ability. They did not hurt at all.
My grandson whose celestial eye is open can identify who is a Dafa practitioner when he is on the street. He was able to see many wan symbols on my hands; one was a huge one. Several days later he told me that the big wan symbol had became 15 smaller ones. Once when we both sat together, my grandson looked at me unintentionally and said, "Hey, Grandma, your gong column just increased a half level."
My grandson was successful in having several of his friends quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations.
Master said,
"The Closer to the End, the More Diligent You Should Be."
Fa-rectification is coming to the end of the end. I must discover my weakness and stick to the three things Master requires of us.
