As Long as We Are on the Fa, There Is No Test We Cannot Pass

By a Falun Dafa practitioner in Guangxi Province

(Clearwisdom.net) I have wanted to write an experience sharing paper for a long time, but always felt that I have nothing to write about. In the last few years, my experiences have seemed rather pedestrian, with nothing extraordinary, and passing the tests has been easy. Looking back at my path of validating the Fa, my understanding is this: As long as we are on the Fa, there is no test we cannot pass.

When I was arrested and interrogated for the first time in 1999, my heart was beating so fast that I felt dizzy and could hardly see. My body shook, and my voice also trembled. Although I tried to control myself, I was still shaking. I felt as though there were very heavy burdens on me, and I could not breathe. I kept reciting to myself Teacher's poem, "True Nature Revealed." I told myself no matter what happened, I would have to stay determined and not leave any regrets for the rest of my life.

When the police asked me if I were a practitioner of Falun Dafa, I mustered all my courage and said, "I would definitely follow Master Li in the cultivation of Falun Dafa." As the words left my lips, I saw many black pebbles leave my body and fall onto the dirt floor. Immediately, I felt very light, as though I could float in the air. There was a bright light in front of me. I knew then that my karma had tried to interfere with me just as the evil was exerting great pressure on me. Because I had strong righteous thoughts, Teacher helped me clear them away.

What I observed in that instant greatly encouraged me, giving me the confidence to walk every step well in the future. Since then, I have understood many things with the power of Dafa and the rational mind of a Dafa disciple: As a Dafa disciple, how should I treat the things happening in front of me? Whenever there was a test, I would recall what the Teacher said in Zhuan Falun. As long as I was determined, I passed every test well.

In addition, we have to have faith in Teacher and the Fa. One evening after 8 p.m. while I was in prison, I suddenly found that my arms and legs could not move. There was ringing in my ears. My mind was clear, but other parts of my body seemed out of control. I lay quietly and thought I should just let it be, that Teacher would make arrangements on how I should eliminate karma. When it was about time to get up to do the exercises, I thought, "Teacher, I should do the exercises." Suddenly, I could feel my hands and feet again. A few minutes later, I was able to sit up, except that the right side of my face and head were still numb. I could not hear anything with my right ear and could not even feel it when I touched it. It gradually returned to normal over the next two days. What a miracle! If I had been afraid then, if Teacher did not protect me, I do not even dare to imagine what would have happened.

Our benevolent Teacher knew that the disciples would shoulder great responsibilities from pre-history and face a world of ten evils. That was why in Zhuan Falun he instructed us step by step on how to walk our path well, how to enlighten about the tribulations we encounter, and how to maintain our "xinxing, "as though he was teaching young children how to walk. As long as we study the Fa more and follow the path led by the Teacher, we will for sure walk our path well.

The above is just my understanding. Please kindly point out anything inappropriate.
