The Dream of a Young Falun Dafa Disciple By a Falun Dafa practitioner in Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia
(Clearwisdom.net) Recently I became less diligent in my cultivation. I
was more relaxed towards Fa study and practicing the exercises.
Sometimes, I also neglected sending forth righteous thoughts. My five-year-old
son naturally also followed suit and became lazy in cultivation. One night, my son suddenly woke up and shouted for me to switch on the
lights. I switched on the lights and saw a serious look on his childish face. I
said. "You had a nightmare again, didn't you?" In the past he
frequently had nightmares and usually it was Master who came to save him in his
dreams. Below was what my son saw in his dream. My son told me that in his dream he was playing in the house. He then saw a
creature that looked half man and half beast leap towards him in an attempt to
grab him. He was so frightened that he shouted for me. But I did not seem to
hear. At that moment, he saw Master coming to him on a lotus flower in the air.
Master extended both arms and carried him, and slowly they ascended towards the
skies. Master pointed at the creature and it immediately disappeared. Then they
continued to rise higher. My son said that the skies were beautiful and he saw
majestic palaces and pretty fairies. There was also wonderful music and two
dragons flying. Master carried him but did not speak to him. My son knew that he was not
diligent in Fa study and practicing the exercises, thus those bad creatures came
to scare him. Each time it was Master who exterminated them, and each time
Master did not speak to him. Thus my son said to Master, "Your disciple is
wrong. In the future I will definitely study the Fa and practice the exercises
diligently." At this juncture Master then said, "My child, you must
remember that you have come to the human world to cultivate. It is alright to
make mistakes but in the future you and your mother must cultivate diligently.
Master is waiting for all of you!" My son replied, "I will definitely
pay heed to Master's words. Your disciple acknowledges his mistakes."
Master said, "It is alright to make mistakes, you still have one more
chance, do not miss this chance again!" After hearing my son relate his dream, I felt extremely terrible. As a result
of not being diligent in cultivation, I had let down Master and his compassion.
In the future, I will do well the three things, fulfill my vows made
before I came here, and be a qualified Falun Dafa practitioner. Lastly I would
like to end this article by sharing a poem "Plum Blossoms" from the
book, "Hongyin" II. "In the chaotic world, like a pure lotus flower-- Posting date: 6/23/2006 |
