(Minghui.org) I had only read Zhuan Falun once when the persecution began in July 1999. For fear of being persecuted, I didn’t continue practicing.

In June 2003, as I walked along passing a street, I saw a small poster on the wall with glowing words that said “Falun Dafa is a righteous practice.” I was very surprised, as I had never seen words that could emit strong light. I took the poster down from the wall and took it home. I wanted to cherish it forever.

But then I thought, the poster was put there by another practitioner for the general public to see. I shouldn’t keep it in my personal possession. I put the poster back where it was and decided to put up more posters myself.

I found the copy of Zhuan Falun I still had at home. I was surprised to see that the characters in the line I was reading stood out and emitted bright light! This happened with every line I read until I finished reading the book a few days later.

I never experienced anything so miraculous when I was growing up. It happened when I was in a very clear state of mind. I know it’s real and not a dream. I was amazed by the supernatural power of Dafa. I also knew that I’ve obtained the Fa and that Master is taking care of me. I should genuinely practice Dafa and follow Master back to my true home.

I contacted a practitioner I knew. She told me the facts about the Tiananmen self-immolation hoax. Only then did I realize that it was staged by the communist regime to incite hatred against Dafa and justify the persecution.

I was appalled and it made me more determined to speak up for Dafa. I hope that people can learn the facts and stop believing the lies of the communist regime. My heart is full of gratitude to Master Li.
