(Minghui.org) I have practiced Falun Dafa for 11 years. I first learned about Falun Dafa from the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) propaganda against Dafa.
I read many articles and reports about Falun Dafa and all its teachings with the help of the “Freegate” anti-censorship software. I began to cultivate in Dafa despite the persecution in China.
Falun Dafa cleansed my thoughts, behaviors, and words; both my body and mind were purified. I gradually changed into a good person and gained a new life.
I have experienced the happiness of “Having heard the Dao in the morning, one can die in the evening.” (“Melt Into the Fa,” Falun Dafa Essentials for Further Advancement)
I would like to share a few remarkable things that I have witnessed on my path of cultivation.
Dafa is Miraculous
Teacher Li said,
“The parts of your body where you had sickness before, which you thought had been healed before through qigong exercises or by a qigong master, will act up again. This is because that qigong master did not cure the illness for you—he only postponed it. It was still there in that spot, so it would recur later if not at that time. We must dig it out and eliminate it completely from its root. With this, you may feel that your illnesses have recurred. This is to remove your karma fundamentally. Thus, you will have reactions. Some people may have physical reactions somewhere. Some may feel uncomfortable in one way or another, as different kinds of discomfort will manifest. These are all normal.” (Zhuan Falun)
I used to have lymphoma in my neck. Although it was removed, the nerves were injured and, as a result, I could not straighten my left arm. When I first began to practice the Falun Dafa exercises, my arm experienced some faint pain, which gradually became more severe until I could not lift the arm at all.
I knew that Teacher was digging out the root of the disease for me, so I ignored the pain and continued doing the exercises. My arm stopped hurting about two weeks later. A few months after that, Teacher cleansed my body for me once again, and my left arm was completely healed.
Once, I accidentally poured hot soup on my hand. I had the thought that I was a Dafa practitioner, so I practiced the exercises for half an hour. The next day, my hand looked completely fine. Without teacher's protection and the power of Dafa, my hand would have been covered with blisters. I once again witnessed the miracle of Dafa.
Dafa's Healing Power
Before cultivating in Dafa, I suffered from severe coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, and high blood fat, to name a few illnesses. I often felt dizzy. In winter, my cardiovascular blockage was extremely uncomfortable, and I relied on medicines to relieve the symptoms. I even fainted in class once.
Dafa exercises and teachings cured my illnesses. I have been very healthy and have not needed any medicine since I began to cultivate in Dafa.
Teacher said,
“The Buddha-light illuminates everywhere and harmonizes everything.” (Zhuan Falun)
Dafa's teachings help me to become a very positive person. My 89-year-old mother has lived with us for a few years. The positive environment in my family influences her. She looks young and healthy and is full of good spirit.
My brother-in-law is a professor at the College of Marxism-Leninism Studies and was deeply poisoned by CCP propaganda. He used to be very resistant to Dafa, but after he witnessed the changes in my mother, he publicly praised Dafa: "Mom is young and healthy at your place. Your field is very good. It seems your practice is the real deal."
Clarifying the Facts to College Students for Ten Years
Falun Dafa teaches people to follow the principles of the universe to be good people. However, the CCP defames Dafa to deceive people. As a Dafa practitioner, I have the responsibility to help people learn the facts of Dafa.
As a college instructor, I believe that Teacher arranged me to teach in college to give me the opportunity to tell the facts of Dafa to college students who have been deceived and controlled by the government. The CCP spread lies about Dafa in college textbooks and uses every means to push students to the opposite side of Dafa. The CCP also places agents on campus called “information officers” who mingle with students and staff to monitor them. They use money to lure students to report on each other.
Teacher said,
“Actually, when Master wants something done a certain way, it’s not simply that he thought of something and then that’s it. I have to do a tremendous amount of preparation, which you cannot see, and all of those gods work on it too. Everything has been prepared, and all that’s missing is for you to carry it out.” (“Dafa Disciples Must Study the Fa - Fa Teaching Given at the 2011 Washington DC Metro Area Fa Conference”)
I understand that Teacher has laid the foundation for us; all I need to do is to have righteous thoughts to save sentient beings.
I clarify the facts of Dafa to college students in my classroom. I tell them that Falun Dafa is the best Dharma Law in the modern world and that Dafa disciples are a group of cultivators who are kind and honest. The former CCP leader Jiang Zemin launched the persecution of Falun Dafa and staged the Tiananmen self-immolation hoax to stir up public hatred against Dafa.
I usually use current events as a starting point to gradually guide conversations toward Dafa and the persecution. I have my students analyze current events and then guide them to the facts of Dafa.
Most of the students have seen through the CCP’s lies and learned the facts. I have been doing this since 2009, nearly ten years. Even under the tight surveillance of the CCP, I have been able to tell the facts to students without any interference. This is a miracle.
