I Have Come Back Home Again
(Clearwisdom.net) One day in September of 1997, I was swindled of 150
Yuan by someone. When I shared this story with a friend who practiced Falun
Gong, he said it might not be a bad thing. Being swindled money is not a bad
thing? I was shocked. That night we chatted for a long time, I was very
interested in what my friend said and later started practicing Falun Dafa as a
result of our conversation.
Even today, the feelings of being excited, happy and curious when I first
heard about Dafa are still fresh in my mind. I remember that I always used to
have a lot of questions to discuss with my friend after reading some parts of
the Dafa books. We often discussed them until midnight, sometimes until even the
next morning.
It took us some time to find out that there was a Dafa Coordination Center
nearby, and the Assistant at the center was an elderly woman known
affectionately as Auntie Jiang. After asking a lot of people, when we finally
met Auntie Jiang, she smiled at us like she knew we were coming. Her smile was
so comforting that I felt like I had finally come back home.
In May of 1999, I moved to Jinan City for work purposes. There I failed to
get in touch with local practitioners in time. Soon the evil started the
persecution of Dafa and Dafa practitioners. Since I had not studied the Fa well
enough at that time, I accepted the evil lies shown on TV and eventually stopped
practicing. I deeply regret what I did and when I think back to that time, I
feel like I am not worthy of Master's and Dafa's great Benevolence. However,
Master did not give up on me. During that period, I met with an accident where a
high speed motor cycle ran into me and hit my arm. But that only caused a slight
bruise on my arm, I was not hurt at all. One day in April of 2000, I saw a young
man reading Zhuan Falun on a bus. I approached him and said, "I also
practiced Dafa once."
With fellow practitioners help, I have come back "home" again; I
have come back to join the great current of Fa-rectification.
