(Clearwisdom.net) I started to practice Falun Gong in 1996. Before that, I wasn't able to move my legs because of a misplaced lumbar disc, and I also wasn't able to work. After I practiced for some time, however, my symptoms went away, and I felt comfortable and refreshed. At that time, I made up my mind to promote Dafa to help more people.
Promoting Dafa
I went to every county within 80 miles carrying a TV and a VCR player on my bike. I let people know about the wonder of Dafa and played Master's lectures on video at someone's house in the evening. I felt really joyful when I saw people sitting around listening to Master's lectures.
One time I went to a county to promote Dafa, but some people told me to go away. It was too late to return home, so I thought about staying by the fire overnight. I did not want to leave without letting the people know about Dafa. Soon, an old lady came by and invited me to stay at her house. I thanked her and went with her. We arrived at her home, and I started to tell the people there how wonderful Dafa is and how my health improved through the practice. They asked me to play the video I had with me for them.
After a few years, because of fellow practitioners' and my efforts, most of the counties in our region formed Fa study groups. I realized that this was Master's arrangement.
Clarifying the Truth Far Away
It is a Dafa practitioner's mission to clarify the truth to save people. Fellow practitioners and I aren't afraid of being tired, and to help people in neighboring areas learn the facts, we've often walked half the night or the whole night.
Once, a fellow practitioner heard of a county 100 miles away that had never received truth-clarifying materials. She and I then decided to go there. We carried our bikes onto the bus, and then hidthem in the grass and walked the rest of the way. By the time we finished distributing more than 300 pieces of truth-clarifying materials, it was 3 a.m. We walked back, found our bikes and pedaled back very fast so that we could get home by morning. I got home at 6 a.m. and sent forth righteous thoughts. I didn't want to move at all, as my legs hurt.
However, Master's words appeared in my mind:
"A Great Enlightened One fears no hardship
Having forged an adamantine will"("Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Actions" from Hong Yin Volume II)
Thinking about this, I got up and went to work.
Following Master's Guidance and Helping Fellow Practitioners
One fellow practitioner's body was interfered with, and she became unconscious. I thought about Master's words about not wanting to leave even one practitioner behind and made up my mind to help her.
During my lunch time, I hastily finished my food and went to her apartment. I said to her: "A Dafa practitioner has to control herself! You cannot go along with the old forces. You have to study the Fa more often. I will study the Fa with you." I also told her family that I would take care of her and that she would be alright.
Although my schedule was busy, I made the time to study three lectures of Zhuan Falun and send righteous thoughts in her presence every day. After 40 days, she finally regained consciousness.
Master has told us that as long as we do the three things well, study the Fa well and have righteous thoughts, we would be able to save more people and eliminate our attachments, so that we can return home with Master.
