(Clearwisdom.net) I became a Falun Dafa practitioner in March 1998. Since beginning my cultivation, I've improved myself based on the Fa, and used the Fa as a guide to balance cultivation with my student life, that is, until graduating from middle school.

After enrolling in high school, the pressure from my school studies got heavier, leaving me little time to study the Fa. I could not adapt to the change. With less Fa study, my various attachments gradually grew, especially in terms of pursuit of fame and personal gain. I could also see how the attachment to lust severely affected me. I tried to send righteous thoughts to eliminate these things, but with little effect.

Early this year, I watched the DVD of the Chinese New Year Spectacular by Divine Performing Arts. The powerful righteous field of the show cleaned out the negative elements in my mind. I suddenly realized that I must do the three things well, become a genuine Dafa disciple, and assist our Master in the Fa-rectification period. One night I had a dream. In the dream, I was forcefully pulling out a bad thing from my abdomen. Just before it was all out, it turned into a human form and looked at me, begging me silently. In that moment, I was hesitant and felt pity for it. Soon, half of its body was back in my abdomen. I tried to pull it out again but failed. When I woke up, I was very regretful for my lack of righteous thoughts in the dream.

In the following month, that thing interfered with me in various ways. On the evening of April 6, after the study period at school, I was on my way back home while reflecting on all my doings over the past year, especially those recent problems. I knew it was because I had slacked off in studying the Fa. Lightning started to strike the night sky; I walked quickly and recited in my heart Master's poem, "The Heavens Become Clear Again" from Hong Yin II. When I was close to my home, a bolt of lightning suddenly came down from the sky and struck the ground four or five yards ahead of me, making a big "bang" sound. The sky was lit up, and the thunder was rumbling.

I was stunned. Suddenly I realized that Master had helped me to eliminate the dark minions and degenerate demons. The loud thunder also woke me up and I deeply understood what is the most precious, and what is the most important: To obtain the Fa and cultivate; to do the three things well; to assist Master in the Fa-rectification period; to be a genuine Falun Dafa disciple. Whether we are doing Dafa projects or doing ordinary people's things, no matter how busy we think we are, we should never slack off in studying the Fa. Studying the Fa often, following the Fa and measuring things with the Fa, getting rid of all kinds of attachments, and maintaining righteous thoughts and actions--only by doing all of these things can we ultimately negate the old forces, do the three things well, and fulfill our vows.
