Master’s Indescribable, Boundless Compassion

(Minghui.org) I began practicing Falun Dafa in 2004. Master’s compassionate care has protected me every step of the way.

Master Constantly Watches Over Me

I am the youngest member of my family. My mother had no intention of keeping me when she got pregnant, although my family had few children, and family planning had not started in our region at that time. My mother went to the town hospital intending to have an abortion, but the hospital was closed. She had no choice but to carry me to term. My father had agreee to give me to another family if I was a girl. After I was born, the family came to take me away, but my grandmother stopped them.

When I was four years old, my mother took me to a town, and we accidentally got separated. My cries caught some strangers’ attention and someone wanted to take me away. Luckily, my father was in the area and saved me.

When I was about six or seven years old, I was swept into a ditch by the rear end of a logging trailer but somehow escaped injury.

When I was about 20, I was on a bus in the winter. The road was slippery, and the driver was drunk. At one point, the bus slid across the icy surface, out of control. When the driver managed to stop the bus, we got out only to see a deep ditch a dozen meters away. Everyone exclaimed, “What a close call!”

While heading home after work, the bus I was on collided with a train at a railway crossing. The accident shattered the concrete pillars at the crossing, but everyone on the bus escaped unscathed. Everyone said, “The people on the bus were blessed.”

I was introduced to Dafa in 2004 by a colleague at work and finally realized that Master had been watching over me all this time.

In October 2004, a colleague was planning to travel to Beijing to send forth righteous thoughts, and invited me along. Having missed the event in 1999, when Dafa practitioners gathered to petition the authorities, I was determined to seize this opportunity. My worried husband reluctantly agreed, and I took our daughter to Beijing with me to send forth righteous thoughts.

Shortly after my return, the leader at my workplace came to talk to me. I had been clarifying the truth to people at work, and someone had reported me to the leader. I was new to cultivation practice, and adamantly maintained that I had done nothing wrong. The workplace administrators threatened to send me to a forced labor camp, so I quarreled with them. They subsequently reported me to the local 610 Office. That night, Master visited me with a gloomy expression and chopped up several bags of toads. The person working at the local 610 Office subsequently received a call from an overseas practitioner, realized the truth, and did proceed with my case. I overcame this tribulation with Master’s intervention and with help from overseas practitioners.

Having lost face after being ignored by the 610 Office, my work leader became embarrassed and angry. My actions had also implicated my colleague, and both of us were barred from returning to work. However, I was able to return to work more than a year later. During this period, my colleague was persecuted and stopped practicing Falun Gong. This continues to be my longstanding regret. I failed to cultivate well, so the leader of my work unit and all those who had helped persecute me suffered retribution. I felt sorry for them and became determined to learn from my mistakes.

Master Protects My Family

My husband fell in 2007, and after having a scan, he was diagnosed with a meningeal tumor. We consulted a well-known medical professor at a hospital in the provincial capital. After reviewing my husband’s scans, the professor told us that the tumor was in a dangerous location, compressing the motor cortex of the brain and situated close to the aorta. Any bleeding would cause a severe hemorrhage. After that, whenever I closed my eyes, I would see blood pouring out of my husband’s head. One night, I heard a disembodied voice telling me that my husband would be paralyzed. I quickly got up and sent forth righteous thoughts, begging Master to save my husband. Everyone knew that I practiced Falun Gong. If something bad were to happen to my husband, it would adversely affect Falun Gong’s reputation.

My husband entered the operating room early one morning. I advised my family members to recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” My husband’s classmate’s wife accompanied me while he underwent the surgery, and I seized the chance to clarify the truth and persuade her to withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its youth organizations. My husband’s lengthy procedure lasted until the afternoon. When I saw him, he kept crying, but made an OK sign with his right hand. Unable to control myself, I burst into tears. I knew that Master had saved him, and I dearly wished to kneel before Master’s portrait to thank him.

During the surgery and throughout his time at the hospital, my husband kept a truth-clarification amulet by his side. The doctors and nurses who came in contact with him were able to read the truth clarification words on the card. When he was released from the intensive care unit into a regular ward, he remained calm and relaxed, in contrast to his fellow ward mates, who were screaming and moaning in pain. I took advantage of his excellent state to clarify the truth to the other patients and their relatives. Most of them agreed to withdraw from the CCP.

My husband and I were having dinner at home one day when we heard a hurried knock on the door. We opened the door, only to see the stunned face of our downstairs neighbor. She told us her house was badly flooded, and was surprised to see that our house was fine. Our neighbor on the sixth floor had left a window open, causing the water pipe to freeze and burst. The fifth floor was severely affected and the house looked like a frozen water cave. For our neighbors on the third floor, the wall beside their door was so soaked it was collapsing. Water was constantly flowing through the second and third floors, yet my home on the fourth floor saw no damage. My curious neighbors asked, “How did the leak manage to skip one floor?” They were aware that I practiced Falun Dafa, so I replied, “My house is protected by the divine.”

I feel very happy whenever I think of Master. I also told my husband that his life was saved by Master. Whenever I have to leave home for a while, my husband burns incense for Master each day in my stead. Whenever my daughter comes to visit us for the Chinese New Year, she makes a point of praying to Master before doing anything else.

Master Gave Me a Second Chance at Life

One day in the summer of 2021, while heading to my workplace from home, I heard a voice say, “You have to kill her, no other method will work.” I ignored that disembodied voice, thinking, “Your words are powerless.” A few days later, I came down with a fever, though this was nothing new. Whenever I suffered fevers, I would recover after listening to the Fa and practicing the exercises.

My symptoms were mild during the first few days, and the thermometer did not even register an elevated temperature. But my symptoms subsequently became more severe. I found myself trembling and unable to stand while doing the exercises. I alternately shivered with cold through several layers of blankets, or felt extreme heat as my body burned. I found myself vomiting and suffering from urinary incontinence, as my pulse raced above 100 beats a minute. I looked inward but could not figure out what was wrong. Yet I knew for sure that my life belonged to Master and the old forces were not allowed to take it away.

Fellow practitioners came to study the Fa with me. I studied the Fa when I had strength, and listened to or recited the Fa from memory when I could not sit up. During this month, I lost more than ten pounds of weight, could barely move, and even lost the strength to talk. My worried family begged me to visit a hospital, but my terrified husband did not even mention the word “hospital.” I reassured them all, “It’s okay, I will recover through practicing Falun Gong.” In response, my husband muttered to himself, “Is she even human? Her fever has gone on for so long that she should have suffered severe internal damage by now.” One night I was lying in bed unable to fall asleep, when in a feverish haze I saw an old man walk up to me saying he had come to collect his debt. At this point, Master arrived and took on my debt.

After my fever subsided, the outer layers of my heart felt slightly burnt. I asked Master to give me a new heart, and over the following days, I found myself eating a lot of tomatoes. When I told my husband, “Master is replacing my heart,” my happy husband purchased tomatoes for me each day. I regained enough strength to practice the exercises a few days later, and after a week I found that my body was back to normal.

Sending Forth Righteous Thoughts

Our region received a newly-appointed police chief and a Domestic Security director last year. Both threatened to crack down on local Dafa practitioners. One night in my dreams I saw a former Falun Dafa practitioner, who had gone astray, guiding a few other people as they made boxed lunches in a hotel. While passing by the police department one day, my husband and I saw three women wearing regular clothes enter the police department. When my husband commented that these women did not appear to be employees, I was alarmed, and immediately visited a fellow practitioner’s home. This fellow practitioner told me that the police had started harassing practitioners. I suggested, “Let’s send forth righteous thoughts.” Every hour, we sent righteous thoughts for 30 minutes. At first, my right thumb trembled uncontrollably. Although the trembling stopped after a while, I subsequently discovered that I was unable to move my right thumb and hand well. However, I ignored this in favor of sending forth righteous thoughts.

At the peak of the authorities’ persecution, I heard that some fellow practitioners spent the entire day sending forth righteous thoughts. Their efforts helped us turn the tide through this difficult period. In contrast, we have slacked off recently, and some practitioners have stopped sending forth righteous thoughts at regular intervals.

During that time, local practitioners banded together to send forth righteous thoughts over longer periods of time and more frequently. We were determined to foil the authorities’ efforts to commit bad deeds, and sought immediate retribution for them if they harbored evil thoughts. The Domestic Security director later suffered a severe heart attack and underwent an angioplasty to insert a stent. His efforts to persecute Falun Gong practitioners were severely curtailed. The police chief was forced to resign when his wife and elderly parents fell seriously ill.

Concluding Remarks

I often marvel at how lucky I am to be a Falun Dafa disciple! Master’s kindness is hard to repay. I am determined to follow Master’s words, move forward by cultivating myself well, save sentient beings, and eventually follow Master to return home.
