(Minghui.org) I would like to share a few memorable xinxing tests I've encountered in the past 15 years of my cultivation.
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) had been persecuting Falun Dafa practitioners for five years when I started to practice in 2004. Afraid of upsetting my parents, I didn’t tell them about my newfound spiritual belief.
My daughter’s third eye had always been open, and she thought everyone could see what she saw. When I first began practicing, I hid my copy of Zhuan Falun. Somehow she found it, looked inside, and exclaimed, “I saw Master Li meditating!”
My daughter was only seven years old, but I realized she had a predestined relationship with Dafa. We studied the Fa and did the exercises together. No one else in my family knew about it.
My daughter would tell me about scenes she saw with her third eye, such as the colorful Falun (law wheel) Master placed in my body, as well as golden dragons and flowers in other dimensions. She also saw my body changing while I sat in meditation. Her insights solidified my confidence in cultivation.
My Emotional Attachment to Family
Master must have seen my attachment of sentimentality to my family, so he showed my daughter another scene. She told me, “I saw you lying on a bed above the clouds, and you were covered with a white sheet. This was a heavenly kingdom, and everything was golden there. I asked Master to wake you up, but He walked away.”
My daughter couldn't understand why Master didn't wake me up. But I did. I knew that Master wanted me to see that my kingdom and my people were waiting for me. If I didn't let go of my attachment to family, it would hinder my cultivation and I would eventually pass away like an ordinary person.
The weight on my heart was suddenly lifted. I calmly told my parents and husband that I was practicing Falun Dafa. They did not object. In fact, my mother began practicing as well.
Talking to People about Dafa At Work
I work in public service. My job is to process official documents, so I get to meet a lot of people. I made talking to them about the goodness of Falun Dafa my priority.
An elderly man came to my window with his daughter-in-law. He’d just had surgery to remove a cancerous tumor and looked weak. I chatted with them while I processed their paperwork. When they were about to leave, I told him, “Remember to say, ‘Falun Dafa is good’ and ‘Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’ It will help you.” He thanked me.
He returned a few days later, walked straight to my window, and said, “Look! I feel much better!” I could hardly recognize him. His spirit was high, and he was all smiles.
“After we talked, I began saying, ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good’ every day. I feel so much better now!” he exclaimed.
I said, “Since you know that Dafa is good, don't believe the lies told by the CCP. Why not withdraw from the Party and its youth organizations that you joined?” He immediately agreed.
Another time, an elderly woman came to my window and said, “I've been looking for you. I was told to come to your window for paperwork.” She was missing some documents, so I told her to come back when she found them.
She returned a few days later and waited in line patiently. While we chatted, she mentioned she had suffered from diabetes for many years. I said, “Many people feel they've benefited after saying, ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’”
“Falun Dafa is good,” she blurted out. “I trust you. You give top-quality service. I believe you.” I was deeply touched.
As long as I align myself with the Fa, those around me will know that Dafa is good.
Meeting People Outside of Work
Almost all the people I interacted with while our apartment was being renovated came to understand the CCP’s persecution of Dafa. They also renounced all the CCP organizations they had joined.
Being aware of the building material supplier’s thin profit margin, I always paid in full as soon as the supplies were delivered. The store owner said, “You are so kind, so different from other people.”
“I'm a Falun Dafa practitioner,” I replied. “Our Master told us to be considerate of others. I know your business is challenging.” The store owner was touched. She saw the goodness of Dafa and agreed to withdraw from the CCP organizations she belonged to.
On the day we were supposed to pick paint colors for the walls, the painters' boss was running late. The workers mentioned that their boss also works at the police station in my neighborhood. Upon learning this, I hesitated. My first reaction was fear, and I wanted to leave. But I was already too involved and thought, why not face her?
When the boss arrived, she looked familiar. When she inquired about my employer, she covered her mouth as if she suddenly remembered something. When she walked outside with me, I said, “You know I practice Falun Dafa, right? I know your position at the police station. It would be good for you and your business if you didn't get involved in anything that harms practitioners. It would great if you could help them instead.”
“I understand,” she replied.
After I arrived home, I remembered why she looked so familiar: She arrested me once. I hope she will change and have a bright future.
Pulling the Rug Out from Under My Feet
We decided to sell an old apartment we owned. The potential buyer was very difficult to work with and kept changing her mind. After we agreed on a price, she would then offer less. This happened several times. We finally agreed on a price, but then she also wanted the furniture in the apartment to be included.
The day we were supposed to sign the deed, the buyer changed her mind again and wanted the deposit back.
My husband was very angry and said, “The deposit is non-refundable.” In the end, we agreed to return half the deposit.
I then heard that some other practitioners had returned deposits in similar situations. On the surface, the buyer seemed unreasonable. But as a practitioner, I could not judge her using an ordinary standard, so I decided to refund the deposit in full.
The woman was very surprised. She admitted it was her fault that the sale fell through. She said, “You are a very kind person.”
I said, “I practice Falun Dafa. Master Li tells us to be considerate of others. I know it wasn't easy for you to save up the deposit money. I wouldn’t have returned it if I weren’t a practitioner. You should thank Master Li instead.”
“You're right. No one else would be so kind,” she replied. I was happy that she saw the goodness of Dafa.
