The Cultivation Experiences of a Six-Year-Old Practitioner in China

(Clearwisdom.net) My name is Huihui. I am six years old and a young Falun Dafa practitioner who lives in China. The following is my experience-sharing article.

When I was about three years old, Dad would tell me stories that were related to cultivation. Since then, I wanted to cultivate and return to my true self. I then became a Dafa practitioner.

Dad first taught me to recite Hongyin (a collection of Teacher's poems). Very soon I could recite both books of Hongyin. Later, I started to copy Hongyin by hand. It was difficult since there were many words that I did not know how to write. When I wrote, I washed my hands, sat up straight and wrote very carefully. I would practice on another piece of paper for those words I did not know. I would write several poems every day. I completed copying both books within two or three months. Now I am reading Zhuan Falun (1).

I have encountered many tests. One time I had a fever and felt terrible. I could only lie in bed. I also vomited. Dad told me, "Teacher is cleansing your body. You need to enlighten to it. If you think you cannot endure it, we can go to the hospital." I thought to myself, "I am a Dafa disciple. Teacher is watching over me. I do not need to be afraid." I then said, "I will be OK." The following day when we studied Zhuan Falun together, I read the following sentences,

"When I held classes in other regions some things happened all the time. There'd always be some people who felt awful, and they'd be sitting there bent over their seats, they wouldn't get up, and they'd just wait for me to come down off the stage to heal them. But I wouldn't heal them. You can't even clear that hurdle, and later on when you cultivate on your own you are going to have a lot of big tribulations, so if you can't even clear this one, tell me, how are you going to cultivate? You can't even overcome that little thing? You can all definitely overcome those things..."

I thought to myself that I would definitely overcome it. By the third day, I was completely recovered and I could eat again. I knew that Teacher was cleansing my body.

Another time I suddenly had a toothache during the Spring Festival. It was so painful that I cried continuously. Dad then taught me how to send forth righteous thoughts. We sent forth righteous thoughts together. Afterwards, my toothache stopped. Dad said, "We eliminated the evil."

I also had tribulations in kindergarten. Nine children in my class always bullied me. They hit me and it hurt very much. I did not hit them back because I thought of Teacher's words, "But we've said that as a practitioner, you shouldn't hit back when attacked, or talk back when insulted--you should hold yourself to a high standard." (Zhuan Falun)

I like clarifying the truth to others. I know it is a magnificent thing because it can save people. Therefore, all young practitioners should do it well and let other people know that "Falun Dafa is good." The following are some of my experiences in clarifying the truth.

I am the class leader in kindergarten. When other children insult or hit others, I will tell them the principle of "Truth, Compassion and Tolerance," and tell them to be good people. I also ask them to remember, "Falun Dafa is good." I often tell them stories from Dafa and they love them. Sometimes, my schoolteacher asks me to tell stories, and I then tell them cultivation stories. Now many children know that "Falun Dafa is good."

We have many Dafa flyers at home. When my parents folded them, I would help out. I often got paper cuts but I was not afraid. Sometimes we worked until very late but I did not feel tired. I always happily persisted to the end. I often go out to distribute flyers or post banners with my parents. One morning, it was very cold. My parents and I went out to post banners with the words, "Bring Jiang Zemin to justice," and "Falun Dafa is righteous." My parents posted big ones and I worked with the small ones. We walked over two hours. Although I was tired, I did not ask Dad to carry me. I felt truly happy. On our way home, I held Dad's hand. His hands were very cold. I thought that Dad must be very cold. I thought that it would be great if Dad's hands were warm. After this thought, his hands indeed became warm.

Every time I see Dafa flyers on the street, I pick them up and give them to my parents. I think it is not good for people if they step on the flyers. One time at 8:00 p.m., my Mom and I went to distribute truth clarification materials [exposing the lies about Falun Gong and revealing the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners]. We went to separate entrances of a residential complex. Although it was very dark, I was not afraid because I knew that Teacher was watching over me. I posted flyers from the first floor up to the sixth floor. I did not see anyone around until I reached the seventh floor. The door opened and a man came out. He asked me, "What are you doing here?" I gave him a copy of the flyer and told him, "This is truth material. It is very good. You can read it." He said, "How can I read since it is so dark here?" I said, "You can wait until dawn." He said, "OK." He asked me, "Aren't you afraid that it is so dark?" I told him, "No. I am not afraid." He said, "You are not afraid. But I was truly scared." I did not say much and he went back inside.

Another time, I posted truth clarification materials from the first floor to the fifth floor. I saw a little girl standing at the door and asked her, "Do you want a Dafa flyer?" She said, "Yes." I gave her one and she thanked me. Her mother asked her from inside, "Are you chatting with others again?" The little girl asked, "What is this?" I told her, "It is good. You can ask your mother." I then went downstairs.

In order to let more people know that Dafa is good, I asked Dad to teach me to write "Falun Dafa is good," "Truth, Compassion and Tolerance is good," and "Falun Dafa is righteous." I then wrote these words on posters so many people could see them.

I still have some shortcomings. For example, I do not like to do the exercises and send forth righteous thoughts. But I will be more diligent in the future. I hope that all the young practitioners in the world can learn from each other's experiences and save more sentient beings.
