(Clearwisdom.net) I have several close senior citizen friends who are practitioners. They are quiet, do not boast or show themselves off, and maintain stable lives. They have firm belief in Master and firm belief in Dafa, and have repeatedly experienced miracles.
Practitioner A, 75, began practicing Falun Gong in 1997. Her son once took her to a high mountain to go sightseeing. She climbed as fast as her son and grandkids. While descending the mountain, her body suddenly became as light as a bird; her feet barely touched the ground. She felt like she was flying. Her son and grandkids were left far behind her. Her grandson said, "My grandma likes to run. It is because she practices Falun Gong."
When she was rearranging things at home one day, a washtub weighing over 40 pounds fell from a storage rack and hit her wrist. She blurted out, "Master!" It only left a small bruise in her wrist. That's all. Another time when her son gave her a ride, he slammed the car door without noticing her hand was still holding the door trim. Her palm was clamped flatly and turned white, but the thought of broken bones did not cross her mind. Her son was scared and wanted to rush her to the hospital. She said, "No, Master will take care me. It will soon be back to normal." Her hand fully recovered while she kept to her routine in distributing Falun Dafa fliers to strangers.
She included the following in her daily routine: studying the Fa, practicing the exercises, sending righteous thoughts, reciting the Fa, distributing fliers, using paper currency with Falun Gong facts printed on it, telling others the facts of Falun Gong, and denouncing the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. She carried Falun Dafa printouts with her whenever she visited her son in another city. When she went through security checkpoints, she sent a righteous thought: "Do not check me." She passed through the checkpoints safely every time.
Practitioner B, 62, began the practice in 1997. For years, she has been distributing printouts among practitioners and giving strangers printouts, calling them to clarify the facts, talking to them face-to-face, and encouraging them to denounce the CCP. This year, she overcame many difficulties and bought a computer and a printer. Her home became a small print shop.
She had a fever during the swine flu outbreak. Her son asked her to get shots the first day. She said she would not. Her son left for work, saying "Falun Dafa is good, isn't it?" She acted as usual. Her son came back the second night, opened the door, saying, "Mom, you recovered." She said, "So, Falun Dafa is good." Her son said, "Yes, Falun Dafa is good. Falun Dafa is righteous."
Practitioner C, 64, began practice in 1996. She spread the facts of Falun Gong among her relatives, friends, classmates, colleagues, and neighbors and also encouraged them to denounce the CCP. She traveled far and wide to see them. She once sprained her ankle when she walking down stairs after she delivered some leaflets. Her ankle immediately swelled. After she painfully made her way home, her kids wanted to take her to the hospital. She said, "No, it will be OK tomorrow." She did not feel confident about her own words, then asked Master for help in her heart. She was able to get around just fine the next day.
Practitioner D, 62, began practice in 2004.
She fell down one day. Her companion wanted to help her to get up. She said, "I am fine." She stood up by herself, but dared not move her right wrist, because she used her right hand to support her body while she was falling down and the right wrist swelled. When she was about to send righteous thoughts, she could not lift her right hand. She then positioned her right hand using her left hand, and told the right hand, "I am about to send righteous thoughts. You stand up correctly and don't fall." Her right hand held the position until she finished. At night, she clearly felt someone was fixing her broken muscles and bones one by one. She was able to move all her fingers the next day. She could do all the exercises two days after the accident. It truly is like Master said:
"When disciples have ample righteous thoughts
Master has the power to turn back the tide"(The Master-Disciple Bond, Hong Yin Volume II)
