(Clearwisdom.net) The four days of July 14-17, 1994 were the most unforgettable and most blissful period of my life. During those four days, I was most fortunate to be able to join the Falun Gong Classes held at the Hunan Chenzhou Women's Volleyball Training Center conducted by Teacher himself.

This class was conducted for only four days, because Teacher had decided to only teach the Fa and not the exercises. I can vaguely remember Teacher saying, not in his exact words, "From now on, I have decided to only teach the Fa and not the exercises, so that an even larger number of people can be reached. No matter what you are learning, you can all come and listen to my lectures. Moreover, some people do not cherish these exercises and add other practices, which distorts the Falun, and we have to help them adjust their bodies when they come back to class. In the future, we will not give the Falun to someone like that, but we can give him the mechanisms, and a Falun will form if he continues to cultivate in the future." Some practitioners were disappointed and began discussing whether they should share their thoughts with Teacher so that he would help them adjust their bodies and obtain the Falun. As a result, on the second day, the first thing that Teacher said was that he would no longer teach the exercises. He told us that some students' enlightenment quality simply couldn't catch up, and that true cultivators do not lack anything that they require. In retrospect, I could see that Teacher knew every single thought of ours. At the start of the second class, I could easily feel a strong energy field, and other students could also feel that many Falun were turning around them. Teacher is truly responsible for all His students!

Chenzhou is very warm in July. We sat on the wooden floors of the indoor stadium. Because it was so hot, many people were fanning themselves during class. When Teacher saw this, he told those who were fanning to put down their fans or it would become even hotter. After I stopped, I soon felt a waft of cool air, but some people remained stubborn and continued fanning themselves, cultivating is all about becoming enlightened! I also remembered one day in class when it suddenly began raining very hard, with raindrops thudding on the roof of the building so loudly that many students were distracted from Teacher's lecture. Teacher told us to focus carefully on listening to the lecture. He said that missing even a single sentence might influence our future cultivation paths. Doesn't it become cool when it rains? Thinking about it now, Teacher was really thinking about the good of all students all the time.

After the class, when students wanted to take pictures with Teacher, many of them rushed to the front to be close to him. When Teacher saw this ugly situation, he said sternly that pictures could be taken only when we lined up in an orderly fashion. Faced with all these students just beginning to practice cultivation with ordinary peoples' mentalities and bad enlightenment quality, it must have indeed been very tough for Teacher.

It was really tiring for Teacher at that time. Since there were only four days of classes, Teacher had to conduct two lectures each day, one in the morning and one at night. I remember at the end of the last class, after Teacher had finished teaching the fifth exercise set, he said that true cultivators would not miss out on anything, and that everyone would obtain everything that they deserved. Teacher then quickly did a set of hand signs. At that time, I felt a slight movement in my lower abdomen and felt that I had obtained Falun. At that moment, I was extraordinarily touched and resolved in my heart to cultivate to the end no matter what the obstacles.

Upon returning home from the class, I sincerely felt reborn. I felt that I was a new life with an entirely new outlook on life and the world. I have no way of thanking Teacher enough for everything I have obtained.
