(Minghui.org) I felt my stomach churning and almost threw up after doing the sitting meditation for only 10 minutes. I thought, “I have done the fifth exercise for only 10 minutes. I can’t stop. I don’t want to leave to vomit. I want to do the exercises!” So I continued to sit. Because of my thought, saliva was suddenly produced in my mouth, and I swallowed. It happened again. After I swallowed saliva three times, my stomach didn’t feel upset; instead, I felt very comfortable. So I did the fifth exercise for one hour and a half as usual.

Master Li said: “... good or evil comes from a person’s spontaneous thought ...” (Lecture Four, Zhuan Falun)

If I had gone to the bathroom to vomit, I would not have done my exercise on time, and no one knows what would have happened next. I wasn’t moved by the illusion. Instead, I continued doing the exercise. Since I was persistent, the miracle appeared.

My whole cultivation journey has been like this. For example, one night I went out to post truth-clarification adhesive fliers. Not far away from home, I noticed a man in his 40s was following me. When I walked faster, he walked faster; when I slowed down, he did the same.

I went to a recreation area near a road and saw a big sign. I moved my hand on the sign, and the man ran toward me quickly and checked the sign. He didn’t see anything strange, so he stayed there. I then calmly passed him. He didn’t even dare to look at me. After I walked for a while, I saw that he was still standing there. I went further and put up fliers along the road. After I was done, I went to eat some dumplings and returned home.

Another time, I persisted through a strange occurrence. I went to a tall building to distribute truth-clarifying materials. When I took an elevator to the top floor, the door opened, then suddenly closed before I could get out. Then the elevator dropped abruptly. I was shocked but tried to calm down. The elevator stopped on the first floor, and then its door opened. I walked out, went to another elevator, and continued to do my work.

As I review my cultivation path, I know that I kept tripping over myself one time after another. Every fall was because of my human notions and lack of righteous thoughts. There are many tests on our cultivation path. And I can’t pass the test if I don’t cultivate well, regardless of whether it is an important or trivial matter I am facing. Moreover, nothing is trivial in cultivation. Master always tells us to study the Fa. If we don’t study the Fa, we can’t think based on the Fa, and then our human notions will interfere with the situation.

A few years ago, my arrest case was withdrawn, which was also a result of my studying the Fa more, looking within, sending forth righteous thoughts, clarifying the truth to the police department, judiciary, and prosecutor, as well as Master’s hints, mercy, and strengthening.

I wanted to share a little of what I enlightened. I must cultivate myself wherever I go with righteous thoughts. Only when we have righteous thoughts can we have righteous actions; we can then pass any test.
