(Clearwisdom.net) I learned Falun Dafa after July 20, 1999, but knew that Dafa was good before then. My parents and grandma are practitioners, and I saw their health problems disappear after practicing. I did not start practicing before 1999 because I was lazy, and I regret it very much. I have now studied the Fa for about a year, and although I have not been very diligent, benevolent Teacher has not given up on me and has cared for me at every moment.
Teacher said, "...with one person practicing, the whole family benefits." ("Teaching the Fa at the Fa Conference in Australia"). This is true in my home, and I would like to share the experiences of my family members with fellow practitioners.
Sincerely reciting, "Falun Dafa is good" to overcome a life or death tribulation
My grandma is 89 years old and has been a practitioner for over ten years. Her health has always been very good since she started practicing, but in July 2010, I was suddenly told that she had not eaten for days and was dying.
While I was driving home, I sent forth righteous thoughts to reject the old forces' arrangement, and asked Teacher to take care of her. I sent forth one thought: "Grandma is a cultivator. In spite of her age, by no means will we allow the old forces to take her away from us. I steadfastly believe in Teacher and Dafa." When I got home, I saw that grandma was so thin, like a skeleton, and had not eaten or spoken in days. My two aunts could only cry beside her. I told them to stop crying and recite "Falun Dafa is good," because only Teacher could save her. I also asked grandma to recite "Falun Dafa is good" and "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." She said she was too weak to do it, so I sent forth righteous thoughts to remove the bad elements controlling her in other dimensions. With the support of the whole family and with righteous thoughts, grandma began to recite "Falun Dafa is good." Surprisingly to all of us, she was able to eat within just a few days and her health recovered.
Holding no resentment towards others
A local villager hit my brother and broke his nose a couple of weeks ago. My brother was very upset and wanted to report it to the police, but family members managed to change his mind. If he had reported it, the assailant would have been sent to prison for three years and fined 10,000 yuan. When my brother was in the hospital, we learned that other people in the same situation had asked for 20,000 yuan as compensation. We did not ask for anything, however. The people we spoke to in the hospital could not understand it, and thought we were stupid. We took this opportunity to tell them the facts about Falun Dafa and let them know that we are all cultivators. They seemed very impressed with our decision not to ask for compensation, and our behavior helped them to see the greatness of Dafa.
These people all had a predestined relationship with us, and many of them quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. When they smiled at me, it helped me to realize how eager their knowing sides were wanting to be saved.
I also called the family members of the person who hit my brother. I told them that our Teacher told us to think of others first, and that if I had not learned Dafa, I would not have dealt with the incident in this way. I didn't feel any resentment towards the person who hit my brother. The family members of my brother's attacker thanked me repeatedly and they quit the CCP. I told them that they should thank Teacher, since I did what I did only because I had learned Dafa.
My son benefited from Dafa
My son fell and split his upper lip while he was at his school teacher's home. It bled and swelled badly. The teacher was very apologetic when he brought him home. He could not eat anything at dinner, and could only drink milk through a straw. The teacher was very worried. I did not blame him, and told my son to recite "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." By the time my son went to school after the weekend, the swelling had gone and there was no scar.
I want to thank Teacher again for caring so much and saving my family members and me. If it was not for Teacher saving us, we would not be what we are today. We will do the three things well and save more sentient beings.
