I am a veteran practitioner and started practicing Falun Gong in 1996. During the past ten years, I have had many miraculous experiences.
Before I practiced Falun Gong, my whole family suffered from poor health. My eldest son got cancer when he was ten years old and died after medical treatments failed. Very soon after my husband was diagnosed with the same disease. My other children developed cancer as well. As for me, I had many kinds of illnesses. A person who doesn't know the truth of life is like rootless seaweed in the ocean. His life is bound to be gloomy. Later, I became a Buddhist in a temple, hoping that I would be safe. I burned incense and worshiped Buddha all day long.
On September 3, 1996, I got up at 4:30 a.m. to read the Buddhist scriptures. For some reason I could not go on. Instead my mind was filled with the three characters for "Falun Gong." A friend of mine practices Falun Gong and she once introduced it to me. I thought to myself, "Is this a hint from Buddha that I need to seek the truth? It must be!" I went to her home after breakfast. She was listening to a recording of Teacher's Fa when I arrived. I sat down next to her and listened. While listening, I began to weep. I felt as if I had finally met my lost family. It was the answer I had been seeking. I then learned the exercises and read the book.
I finished reading Zhuan Falun in no time. It is so wonderful! I said to Teacher in my heart, "Teacher, I am determined to cultivate to the end." As soon as I had this thought, it was truly like Teacher said,
"When one's Buddha-nature emerges, it will shake 'the world of ten directions.' " ( Zhuan Falun)
Miracles happened - within one week, all of my family members' diseases were cured. In addition, our complexions turned from pale to rosy. Seeing such miraculous changes, many of my colleagues started practicing Falun Gong.
On July 20, 1999, Jiang Zemin's regime started the persecution of Falun Gong. It was a big test for practitioners. There used to be over thirty practitioners at our practice site. Many were afraid and gave up the practice, but my heart never wavered. I promised in front of Teacher's portrait, "Even if all the others stop practicing, I will practice to the end."
I thought to myself that I must protect the Dafa books and not let the police take them away. Because of this righteous thought, the police never found any Dafa book in my home, even though it was ransacked four times. One time, over ten police officers broke into my home, saying that someone reported that I hid several cases of Dafa books. I had very strong righteous thoughts. Teacher's words filled my mind,
"If anyone can harm you, he or she would be able to harm me. Put simply, that person would be able to harm this universe. " (Zhuan Falun)
I firmly believed that Dafa is extraordinary and that no one could affect me. As a result, the police were busy for quite a while without finding anything. In fact several Dafa books were right out in the open, but they could not see them.
The evil not only wanted to destroy our righteous thoughts, but wanted to financially ruin us. One time, the police ransacked my home. When they did not find any Dafa books, they took away my computer and printer. They also looked for my bank deposit book. Although I did not hide it, they just could not find it.
In August of 2004, I was arrested and locked secretly in a sealed room for four days straight. The police tried to make me give up the names of other practitioners. I looked at them while sending forth righteous thoughts and clarified the truth about Falun Gong with compassion. They wanted to hang me from a stainless steel tube so high above the ground that it took five or six police officers to put it up. In a short while, the tube broke for no reason and I fell to the ground. They came to hang me up again. I had one thought in my mind, "Freeze!" As a result, they could not move me, no matter how hard they tried. They became furious and beat me until they were tired. I sent forth righteous thoughts to make the pain go to them. Consequently, all the police officers that beat me had pain all over the next day. Wherever they beat me, that's where it hurt on their bodies.
In taking every step on my cultivation path during the past few years, I benefited from Teacher's protection, and the miracle of Dafa manifested in me. There are many such examples. When I distributed materials, dogs would stop barking. The rain would stop whenever we went out. The bus would come to take us home when we were done. During the process of validating the Fa, the power and magnificence of Dafa will appear as long as we have a pure heart.
