A Broken Marriage Is Fixed

(Minghui.org) Back in the spring of 2017, my husband Hua, who was traveling, called and said he wanted to spend more time in Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan Provinces. Then he turned off his phone. I persisted in calling him, but I was immediately forwarded to his voicemail. 

I realized that this incident happened without any advance warning. Because I was a cultivator, my heart was relatively calm afterward. Everything that happens to a cultivator is a good thing, so what was there to panic about? 

During this period, I also remembered the grievances as well as the cause and effect relationship between husband and wife, mentioned in other practitioners’ cultivation sharing articles. I thought, “What is there to be angry about when you owe a debt to someone?” I reminded myself to see this as fate and accept it. 

I had no resentment or suffering in my heart, only tranquility and compassion.

The days passed by and quickly turned into months. In a dream, I saw my husband Hua sitting on a narrow bench in a dilapidated house in his hometown. There was a small drinking cup on the bench. I stepped inside and said: “Come home with me!” He stood up and walked with me. 

After waking up, I thought about the small cup and felt it symbolized my small-minded husband! I then realized I was wrong. Cultivation is about cultivating oneself. This dream was telling me that I should not be narrow-minded, but should expand my mind and have great tolerance. 

Master Li’s teachings suddenly came to mind: 

“It’s tolerance, an extremely immense tolerance, being able to accept other beings, and being able to truly think from other beings’ perspectives.” (“Fa Teaching Given at the 2002 Conference in Philadelphia, U.S.A.” inCollected Teachings Given Around the World Volume II )

I realized that if I do well, I would be able to pass this test. I pressed my palms together in front of my chest (heshi, a sign of respect) and said to Master: “I can do it! I can Tolerate all lives with whom I have a predestined relationship!”

In the blink of an eye, two years passed. I happened to read an experience sharing article about a veteran Dafa practitioner who was going through an illness tribulation. She realized that she could not die. Although she was not attached to her flesh body, her death would have a negative impact on validating the Fa and saving sentient beings. With this thought, she quickly got over the fierce illness tribulation and started going back out to save people. 

While reading the article, I thought: “Master, I’m not attached to my family and marriage, but if my family breaks up, ordinary people would not understand it. I must not only have a healthy body and a good income to validate the Fa, but a happy family is also indispensable!"

I realized that at critical moments, it’s important to cultivate one’s own thoughts. I was inspired by the article, and it helped me strengthen my righteous thoughts. Afterward, my thoughts became selfless, and I immediately upgraded my focus from personal cultivation to Fa-rectification cultivation. 

Things soon took a turn for the better. My husband called and said he wanted to come home. In the spring of 2020, he returned home after three years. I welcomed him as if he had been working abroad for three years.

My family is also one of the relatively large ones in the area. At a family gathering, one of my cousins spoke out: “I admire practitioners very much. The pure land in the world can only be found in Falun Gong! True love can only be found in Falun Gong.” 

Because I was able to validate the Fa, most of my family members are positive about Dafa. Many of them have read Zhuan Falun (the main text of Falun Dafa), and some have even protected Dafa practitioners during the persecution. 

As a Dafa disciple, I know it was Master’s enlightenment and protection that helped me pass this tribulation. I kneel down to thank Master for his compassion. I’m also grateful for the Minghui website because it allows practitioners to communicate and help each other.
