(Minghui.org) I have been practicing Falun Gong with my mother for more than 20 years. I used to just study the Fa and do the exercises with her. It was not until a recent accident that I realized the goodness of Dafa.
A Moment of Life or Death
On September 7, 2025, I went to the mountain with a friend to watch the sunrise. On the way back, my motorcycle unexpectedly veered to the right. I immediately shouted, “Master, please save me!” I suddenly felt an invisible force pulling on me. After flipping a few times, I stopped at a spot near the verge of a cliff. It was really a close call.
When the ambulance arrived, one rescue staff checked on me and noticed just minor bleeding on my knee. He took me to a nearby hospital. At that moment, I realized that Master had saved my life.
At the hospital, the doctor found that my wound did not require suturing. He just applied medicine to the wound and discharged me from the hospital an hour later. From the dash cam, my motorcycle acted as if it had been hit from the rear by a strong force. This reminded me of a passage in Zhuan Falun.
Master said,
“The streets were very quiet without a soul. A practitioner was hurrying home on a bike with only a jeep running ahead of him. Suddenly, that jeep put on its brakes. He was not aware of it and continued to ride his bike forward with his head down. But that jeep suddenly backed up, and it was moving back at a very high speed. If the two forces had met, it would have taken away his life. Just before they were to collide, a force suddenly pulled his bike back more than half a meter, and the jeep came to a screeching halt at the wheel of his bike—perhaps the jeep driver discovered that someone was behind him. This practitioner was not scared at that moment. All of those who have encountered these situations were not scared, although they might have been afterward.” (Lecture Three, Zhuan Falun)
I continued studying the Fa with my family, and my wound showed noticeable changes. Initially, the wound area was quite red and inflamed, but by the next day, it was almost healed. While holding the Falun stance exercise on the third day, I had an inexplicable sensation that something was constantly being expelled from the wound. The pain was less intense after the exercises. I knew that Master was cleansing my body.
Looking Inwards
After the accident, I seriously looked inward for any shortcomings and found an attachment of competition. I often tried to refute my family when their decisions were not to my liking. In school, I would pick on classmates when their grades were better than mine.
I also had an attachment to show off. I had joined the Air Force in the past years, but then changed jobs so that I had more time for cultivation. When I was asked about my military service during the job interview process, my attachment to showing off arose, with an immense sense of pride in my eyes.
These attachments were detrimental to cultivation, and I knew that they should be eliminated. The accident was a prompt from Master to do just that. The accident made me uncover and discard the attachments that had grown deeply in my heart.
Thank you, Master!
