By a practitioner in Liaoning Province

(Clearwisdom.net) I started practicing Falun Gong and found the real meaning of life in 1998. I finally understood why we live on this earth. I threw away all the other things I prayed to at home and bathed in the Buddha light. I felt ultimate bliss.

Initially when I obtained the Fa, Teacher purified and cleansed my body. One time, Teacher did guanding for me and no exact words can describe that wonderful feeling. I feel Falun spinning between my arms when I exercise, it is so powerful!

Once I didn't pass a test in a dream and was very upset. Later I looked inward and told myself, "Trivial things in this human world mean nothing to a practitioner who wants to reach a higher level. I can let go of anything." A stream of electricity passed through me. My upper body and my legs floated up in the air, with the exception of my lower abdomen. I thought it might be that my Heavenly Circuit was completely opened up. My body went down and up again except my lower abdomen was still heavy and stayed lower than the rest of my body. I realized Teacher put a lock in my lower abdomen so I couldn't go up entirely.

One time I felt I was spinning when I did the sitting meditation with my eyes closed. That feeling was wonderful. My physical body didn't actually spin.

One time, I carried a practitioner on a bicycle out of town to distribute truth-clarification fliers. I felt I was going downhill both leaving and coming back. I didn't even realize I had a flat tire until I got home. One time I couldn't find where I parked my bike after I distributed all the fliers I had. I asked Teacher for help. Immediately my mind opened up and I knew exactly where to find it.

Once I went out on a motorcycle and my hands hurt from the freezing cold weather. I remembered Teacher said,

"This is what I'd think: 'You're cold, and you try to make me cold--are you trying to make me freeze? I'll be even colder than you, I'll make you cold.' Or, 'You're trying to make me hot. I'll turn it around and make you hot--so hot that you can't stand it.'"

My palms then began to heat up and the heat went outward to the tips of my fingers. My hands were warm all the way until I finished clarifying the truth and went home.

Once I sent righteous thoughts on my bed and my husband was in the kitchen drinking water. I hoped he wouldn't spit the water on me. Right away he spit a mouthful of water on me. I didn't move and felt funny, "Didn't I just ask for it?"

One time I boiled a pot of water at work. A colleague who was pouring the hot water in my cup slipped and I was soaked in boiling water. My colleague was shocked. I immediately told everyone I was fine. I looked at my hand and it was a little red. I said to my colleagues, "I practice Falun Dafa and my Teacher protects me. I am fine. The redness will be gone by noon," and it was.

Once I was complaining with other practitioners about a Fa conference that didn't go well. Later one of those practitioners told me, "What we did was wrong! It's everybody's business whether a Fa conference is successful or not. We criticized it as if we were not part of the group." I was deeply touched and realized how my thinking wasn't based on the Fa.

To save sentient beings, I worked hard to clarify the truth about Dafa. Initially, I was scared. I remember I forced myself, thinking that I must do it no matter how I scared I was. Teacher's Fa was in my heart.

"In Gods' eyes the same is true with the old forces' arrangements. If you hold on to humanness with one hand and won't let go, and you hold on to Buddhahood with the other hand and won't let go, just which one exactly do you want? When you can truly let go the situation will definitely be different."

Once, one of the local practitioners was arrested and I felt uneasy because I was one of the practitioners who had contact with him. I asked myself, "What are you afraid of? That he will turn you in? That you will die? You stopped worrying about your physical body a long time ago, what are you afraid of?" (This was my thought at the time. Now I know we shouldn't acknowledge the old forces' arrangements.) As soon as this thought emerged, I felt I became infinitely large and wasn't afraid anymore.

There was a period of time when I had an attachment of fear, especially when I went out to clarify the truth about Dafa. Dogs barked at me when I was afraid, but they didn't when my righteous thoughts were strong. I didn't acknowledge fear as part of me but this attachment to fear surrounded me for a long period of time. One day, I read Teacher's poem, "A Righteous God" and I was greatly touched. Teacher gave us all the powers we need so what is there to be afraid of? It was 6 p.m. and I started to send righteous thoughts. As soon as I calmed down, there was a big ruler centered in my abdomen that went around like a compass and cleaned out my dimension. Instantaneously, the field was cleared up and I wasn't afraid! I thank compassionate Teacher who removed that substance called "fear."
