Article by a Falun Dafa practitioner from Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region

(Clearwisdom.net) I feel ashamed today when I face Teacher. I have not stepped forward to clarify the truth since the persecution started. I have not been cultivating steadfastly and have not let go of humanness. However, our benevolent Teacher has not given up on me, but instead gave me a hint and encouraged me to be diligent.

Because of my laziness, as well as my busy job, I have been leaving home early and returning home late every day. As soon as I come home and finish dinner, I feel sleepy and have not been studying the Fa or doing the practice well for almost one year. When I was less busy in the winter, my heart could not calm down.

One morning, I suddenly had a terrible stomachache. I could not even stand up. My family members suggested that I go to the hospital to have a checkup. I thought that since I had not been studying the Fa for some time, it was possible that Teacher was no longer taking care of me, and thus I should try to go to the hospital. I did not expect to be diagnosed with a large tumor in my stomach. When I touched my stomach, I could feel a large hard lump. The doctor at the hospital recommended that I have an operation right away. The news frightened my family members and I was also shocked. I then thought, even if I should die from the tumor, I would not go down to hell, since I have already learned Falun Dafa. If my life should not end, then I will start all over again to cultivate. I therefore told the doctor, "I will wait until I get another examination at a larger hospital."

It was truly miraculous. That afternoon, the pain was much less. The next day, upon reexamination, no tumor was found. I immediately understood that it was Teacher's boundless compassion that saved me and also hinted to me to be more diligent in my cultivation practice. I could not find the words to express my gratitude.

Here I hope to use my personal experience to inform those practitioners who are not diligent, as I used to be. Please lift up your spirit and be a true Fa-rectification period Falun Dafa disciple. Please do not forgo Teacher's hope and treasure this precious opportunity that will not come again. Let us fulfill the vows we made in prehistoric times.
