My Family Is Blessed by Dafa

Feb. 3, 2022 |   By a Falun Dafa practitioner in Heilongjiang Province, China

(Minghui.org) I am 76 years old, and have practiced Falun Dafa for 25 years. Every member of my family supports Dafa. My first and third daughters practice Dafa as well.

My Husband

My husband passed away in 1998. He did not practice Dafa, but he always supported my practice. His celestial eye was open since childhood. He saw Master’s Fashen (Law Bodies) adjusting students’ bodies. When practitioners read Zhuan Falun at my home, my husband saw many divine beings listening to us read. Some of the divine beings sat on the heated brick bed, some stood on the floor, and many more knelt down in the yard as they listened.

Several practitioners and I once started to chat about some ordinary things. My husband stopped us, “You should not chat about things not related to Dafa. Those divine beings did not like to hear what you were talking about, and they all left.”

In 1998, my husband told me that he must go. He said many times, “There will be a big elimination. You must learn Falun Dafa. All those who learn Dafa will not belong to those to be eliminated.” He also said that I will have the same fate he has. In a poisonous gas incident, he never woke up again. Under Master’s protection, I survived that incident.

My Son

Before I practiced Falun Dafa, I was so unhealthy that the doctor predicted I would not live for more than two years. I was constantly on pain relievers. When my son heard that Falun Dafa is very good and has healing power, he found a Dafa practitioner who brought me to watch Master’s recorded Fa-teaching lectures. Nine days later, many of my illnesses were gone.

My son always supported my practice of Dafa. After the persecution began, he often helped me validate the Fa. For several years, my son was the main person who transported the raw materials needed to produce truth-clarification materials. Then he delivered the truth-clarification materials to various practitioners’ homes. He even paid for the gas and some shipping fees from his own pocket. He said Dafa is good, and he is happy to help. Although he did not practice Dafa, my son told many people that Dafa is good. He often helped distribute the truth-clarification materials to people.

My son also benefited from Dafa’s protection. For example, one winter day my son’s petrol tricycle caught fire when he was warming it up. As he ran to get a bucket of water, he kept reciting, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” The entire tricycle was burning as he went to get water. He poured water on the tricycle, and the flames went out. Astonishingly, there was no damage to the tricycle at all!

In another incident, his car broke down on the road. After he got out of the car to see what the problem was, the car suddenly started moving forward by itself. It was on a busy road. Miraculously, the car seemed to have a driver―dodging all the cars and pedestrians in its path. It even made a few turns, and then eventually jumped onto the sidewalk, hit a tree, and stopped. People who witnessed the scene were surprised. Someone said to my son, “Your family is blessed by the Gods! You must burn more incense when you get home!” My son told me afterward, “Our family is blessed because you practice Falun Dafa!”

My First Daughter

My eldest daughter had poor health since childhood. When she was 25, her height was just over four and a half feet tall. She began to practice Falun Dafa in 1997. Before we knew it, her height increased to five feet! She eats much more than she did before and has become much stronger.

A few years back, she was hit by a car while riding a bicycle. The young driver who hit her mistook the gas pedal for the break. My daughter flew into the air on impact. She was not scared, but she felt she was unable to move. She immediately started to recite, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” and asked Master for help. The young driver was so frightened he was frozen; bystanders urged him to take my daughter to the hospital. My daughter got up and said that she practices Falun Dafa, and is all right. Her bike was smashed to pieces, so she asked the driver to take her home.

At home, her husband joked with her, “So did you leave a big dent in the car?” Since my daughter often listened to Master’s lectures at home, her husband actually listened to them and also understood a lot about Dafa. 

My eldest daughter is a kind and simple person. Although she does not have a lot of time to read Zhuan Falun, she always tries to squeeze time in here and there to read. She has never slacked off in saving people.

My Second Daughter

My second daughter practiced Falun Dafa for a while before the persecution began. However, she was too scared to continue since the persecution. She often told her friends that Falun Dafa is good. If someone slandered Dafa, she would argue with the person.

She has also experienced a lot of miracles. For example, she came to visit me one day and said she had gotten a fish bone stuck in her throat. She wanted to go see a doctor to remove it. I reminded her, “Quickly! Recite Falun Dafa is good!” She replied, “Oh, how come I forgot about that?!” She sat down and repeated the sentence in her heart. After just a short while, she said happily, “Mom! The bone is gone! Dafa is miraculous!”

One day last year, I noticed something was wrong with her as soon as she entered my home. I asked why she did not go to work. She told me she felt like she had a stroke. She had trouble moving half of her body, and her tongue was numb. I asked her, “Have you recited, ‘Falun Dafa is good?’” Again, she said, “How come I did not remember that?!” She immediately recited it repeatedly. I could see her face changing as she recited it. I asked if she felt better. She moved her legs, then her arms and her tongue. “Mom! I’m recovered!” She went back to work the next day. At work she continued to recite, “Falun Dafa is good.” At one point, she did heshi and said, “Master, please do not let me have a stroke.” A voice answered, “What stroke? What are you talking about?”

In another incident, she sprained her ankle as she was going downstairs. It swelled immediately. This time she remembered to recite, “Falun Dafa is good.” As she recited, she saw the swelling go down and her ankle return to normal. She soon stood up and walked away.

My Third Daughter

My third daughter began to practice Dafa in 1998. Since childhood, she was able to see other dimensions. She even saw some highly-accomplished masters from the Qimen School, although she did not understand it before practicing Dafa. After practicing Dafa, some karmic relationships were shown to her: those between her and her sisters, her husband, and some fellow practitioners. She saw that she was a disciple of Master since a long time ago. She also saw that she came from a very high level and reincarnated with many other practitioners.

In 2005, the local practitioner who was in charge of producing our truth-clarification materials was arrested. My daughter stepped in and set up a materials production site. Since then, she has been producing the truth-clarification materials for local practitioners. She went through a lot during these past 15 years. For example, two years ago, her cultivation state was not very good. She wanted to stop the truth materials site and go out to work to make money. She planned to stop as soon as all the money donated by practitioners for materials was used up. However, after a long time, the money was still not all used up. Finally, she understood that she should stay and continue. Then during the pandemic, her printer paper ran low. Her community district was under lockdown, and she could not get a new order of paper delivered to her. She asked Master, “Master, what should I do? I need to continue printing our truth-clarification materials to save people!” She nonetheless continued to print the truth-clarification materials. However, she noticed that the paper did not run out, nor did the printer ink.

For safety reasons, my daughter’s truth materials production site was relocated 10 times during the past 15 years. Each move was difficult because the equipment had to be moved in secret. One time, her landlord’s son was coming to live there, so my daughter had to move out. With the help of fellow practitioners, they quickly found another suitable house and moved. Soon after my daughter moved, the landlord, who is one of my old friends, called my daughter and said the police called. The police told the landlord that the tenant ran a Falun Dafa materials production site in the house and they wanted to come to search it. The landlord told the police that the tenant had moved away. The officer was puzzled, “Moved? How could that be possible? We have been monitoring that house day and night!” My daughter said it took them two days to move due to the equipment and materials. Yet the police did not see them! It would be impossible without Master’s protection! The police wanted the landlord to get my daughter’s phone number for them. But the landlord refused.

My third daughter has strong righteous thoughts and a good understanding of the Fa. Regarding any safety concerns, she said as long as we only do what Master wants, the evil will not dare to touch us. There have been several close calls, but things went safely without mishap.

My Fourth Daughter

I live with my youngest daughter. She is a kind, forgiving, and open-minded person. She read Zhuan Falun before the persecution, but stopped practicing after the persecution started. She always supported Dafa and my practice. I am a coordinator among the local practitioners. I often brought truth-clarification materials home, and many practitioners visited our home. My daughter never complained.

One day she spilled boiling milk on her leg. We immediately recited, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” I then bought burn medicine for her. She said, “Why did you buy medicine? I will just recite, ‘Falun Dafa is good.’” As a result, the only symptom she had was that the skin on her leg was reddish for a few days. It did not hurt at all.

My fourth daughter’s son was protected from harm during a dangerous accident. When he was 4 years old, my thirddaughter came to visit one day. We did not see that the boy was playing with a power plug. Suddenly, a fireball shot out and went through the boy’s hand. His hand had a hole in it, and the entire hand turned black. My third daughter and I recited, “Falun Dafa is good” repeatedly, and we asked Master for help. We saw with our own eyes as the black color on the boy’s hand gradually vanished. Within about 12 hours, the color of his hand returned to normal. Four days later, the hole in his hand was healed; it did not even leave a scar.

Myself

When I started to practice Falun Dafa, I did not understand cultivation. I simply wanted to heal my illnesses. At that time, I suffered from frozen shoulder, cervical spondylitis, general spondylitis, cystitis, gastritis, nephritis, neurosis, and rheumatic heart disease. I also had postpartum conditions that were especially difficult; they caused constant back pain and coldness. I had to wear a winter vest in summer. I even lost consciousness often. The doctor said I was ill from head to toe and inside-out. Soon after I practiced Falun Dafa, all my illnesses were gone. In 1998, my husband and I were poisoned by carbon monoxide. He did not wake up. However, I survived under Master’s protection.

When the CCP started to persecute Falun Dafa practitioners, I said, “If everybody quits and if there is only one person left practicing Dafa, that would be me!” With this firm thought, I walked on my cultivation path steadily. I am 76 years old now. Every day, I go out on my electric bike and distribute truth-clarification materials to save people.

One of my biggest attachments is a fighting mentality. I wanted to be praised and not criticized. Because I had difficulty putting down my attachment to self, Master arranged opportunities for me to improve, again and again. I feel ashamed that I let Master worry about me so much!

Master said:

“Don’t argue left and right, and don’t emphasize who’s right and who’s wrong. Some people are always stressing that they’re right, but even if you are right, even if you’re not wrong, so what? Have you improved on the basis of the Fa? The very act of using human thinking to stress who’s right and who’s wrong is in itself wrong. That’s because you are then using the logic of ordinary people to evaluate yourself, and using that logic to make demands on others. As gods see it, for a cultivator to be right or wrong in the human world is not important in the least, whereas eliminating the attachments that come from human thinking is important, and it is precisely your managing to eliminate those attachments rooted in your human thinking as you cultivate that counts as important.” (“Fa Teaching Given in Manhattan,” Collected Fa Teachings, Vol. X)

I have read this passage many times. And I wondered: why can’t I do better? I am one of those who judge things with human thinking. When problems occur, I keep stressing, with human attachments, what is right or wrong. I dreamed twice that I was walking up a mountain. Both times I failed to reach the top. In a third dream recently, I was again at the middle of the mountain. Seeing the peak off in the distance, I wondered when I would reach the top. Just then, in the blink of an eye, I found myself at the top. And I heard a sentence from Master’s poem:

“Just one step further and you’ve entered Heaven” (“Dragon Springs,” Hong Yin III)

I woke up. I understood that Master was telling me to completely put down self and put down human attachments. Isn’t Heaven then just one step further?

During the pandemic, my district was under a full lockdown. I picked up some truth-clarification materials, about 400 copies, and estimated the number of units in my district. I found there were about 400 as well! Nothing is accidental in cultivation. It is a test for Dafa disciples―can we step forward to save people under any circumstance. The closer we are to the end, the more urgently we should save people! However, my legs started to hurt. For a moment I was worried that I would not be able to climb to the top floor. I immediately negated that thought: That is not my own thought. I can do it! That day, I distributed truth materials in four buildings. In each building I climbed to the top units. My leg pain reduced significantly, and in a few days, I covered the entire district.

A fellow practitioner called me and said, “We practitioners cannot be confined to our homes. We must go out to save people.” I exclaimed, “I was not confined to my home!” I thought I did well, since I distributed materials in my district. “It’s not enough that you did well,” she said. “We need more practitioners going out.” I know it was Master having her remind me. Soon I found a way to go outside of my locked district. I contacted several other practitioners, and we went out together to save people. Although surveillance cameras are everywhere, I never paid attention to them. They cannot keep me from saving people. I must do what I should do.

I am so fortunate to be a Falun Dafa disciple during the Fa-Rectification! Master does not want anything from us except our hearts of cultivating diligently. I shall live up to Master’s expectations. I will not stop no matter what hardship lies on the path of my cultivation. I will do the three things well and walk every step on the right path.

I am grateful for Master’s salvation of my whole family!
