(Minghui.org) After graduating from college my classmates and I started to prepare for the graduate school entrance exams. Getting into a graduate program in China is very competitive. People do not usually share their preparation materials with others who may be competing for the same program. The more resources one has, the higher the score one may get, and the better one’s chances of being admitted. I also had this thought in the beginning. I later realized this was wrong and it was an attachment of selfishness.
I let go of this attachment after reading the Fa. When my classmates asked me a question, I thoroughly explained it. When my classmates asked to see my materials, I shared them.
Most students preparing for admission to graduate school having the mindset, “The entrance examination is actually an information war.” Everyone guards their materials, and no one shares their resources.
I am not a smart or clever person. Some of the questions are in English and some students can easily find the rules and answer the questions. But I am a slow learner. I do not think too much or focus on the results. Instead I focus on completing tasks according to the schedule. I did not sign up for tutoring classes. I have a firm belief that I am a Falun Dafa practitioner and Master will take care of me. Besides reading the graduate school entrance exams, I also read Zhuan Falun. By doing this, I get twice the results with half the effort.
In fact, this is the second time I’ve applied for admission to graduate school. I failed last year. Last year I had many human attachments such as seeking success, saving face, being afraid of failure, preserving the information for myself, selfishness, and laziness. As a result, I failed the entry examination.
This year I calmed down when I began preparing for graduate school admission. I increased the time I read the Fa, and I listened to Master’s lectures whenever I had time. I selected a tough program in a high ranking university. It was hard to get in. But I strongly believe, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!”
I frequently repeat the auspicious phrases “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” which has an amazing effect. The difficult questions in the exam suddenly became extremely simple and easy to answer, and some long and difficult sentences that I could not understand in the past became easy.
As the result, I was admitted to the graduate school I chose and my examination score was at the top. I got 145 on two subjects out of 150 in total, which was unbelievable. My classmates and friends felt the same way. I knew from the bottom of my heart that Master helped me. Repeating the auspicious phrase, “Falun Dafa is good” manifested the amazing power of Falun Dafa in the human world.
Thank you Master for giving me wisdom.
