Teacher Makes My Wishes Come True
(Clearwisdom.net) Teacher said in Zhuan Falun, "You can only
have such a wish and think about it like that, but it is the master who actually
does these things." I understand that once a person wishes to improve by
following the Fa and the practice, then Teacher will make your wish come true.
The following is my experience based on such a wish. First Wish: to Improve Myself Through Cultivation I had been looking for something all my life but I didn't know what it was. I
always said "You are losing virtue" to anyone that I saw doing
something bad. I always thought one should not lose virtue. After I retired, I
strongly wished to find an orthodox cultivation practice. I wasn't sure what to
do. When I went to a temple I was dismayed to see monks fighting in front of the
Buddha statues. I practiced many kinds of qigong and looked everywhere, but
still hadn't found find a practice I thought was appropriate. In 1995, a friend recommended that I read the book Zhuan Falun. After
I read Lunyu, I couldn't put the book down. It took one and a half
days to finish the book. I was awakened. This is the true Sutra I had been
looking for all my life! The next day I donated the Buddha statue, to which I
had been praying, to a temple and burned all my qigong books. I began to
practice Falun Gong. A few days after I obtained the Fa, I felt physically well. Teacher saw my
heart of wanting to cultivate and brought me into Dafa. Second Wish: Spread the Fa and Let Go of Attachments to Fame and Personal
Gain I wanted to let more people know about the great Fa. As soon as I had this
wish Teacher arranged another kind of environment for me--I set up an exercise
site. The number of practitioners increased from just a few people to several
dozen. For about two years we did the exercises in the morning and studied the
Fa at night; every day rain or shine. Every practitioner at the site felt their
thoughts sublimate and was in good health. We held large-scale group exercises many times in the area and successfully
spread the Fa. After such activities many new practitioners joined our group.
Every time, I felt my xinxing improve. I wanted to establish another practice
site. Soon, someone told me there were people where she worked who wanted to
learn Falun Dafa, and there was a room available for such an activity. I bought
a cassette player and helped her organize and set up the site. The number of
practitioners quickly increased, then conflicts started. A practitioner
questioned why I, someone from outside the company, was the organizer of the
group. I felt sad, and remembered what Teacher had said in Zhuan Falun,
"But normally when a problem arises, if it does not irritate a person
psychologically, it does not count or is useless and cannot make him or her
improve." In the process, my attachments to doing things and being proud of
my achievements in the practice were exposed. Since the practice site had
matured and was running well, I left and went to a practice site close to my
home. I realized doing Dafa work with a pure heart is the most divine state.
Over time, I helped set up four practice sites. Third Wish: Step Out of Humanness and Validate the Fa The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started persecuting Falun Gong on July 20,
1999, and all the media participated in slandering Falun Gong. We were unable to
continue doing the exercises publicly. A few practitioners and I went to Beijing
to appeal for Falun Dafa and were detained for 14 days. Many practitioners didn't know what to do at that time. We organized a small
conference and shared our thoughts with practitioners from outside our province.
We understood that we should tell the world's people Dafa is righteous. At that
time, many practitioners would go to Beijing every day. We didn't have the equipment to print information about Falun Gong in 2000
and had to pay for photocopies at a copy shop. Later, the copy shop received a
government notice that they must not make copies for Falun Gong. One day, after
again being refused service at a copy shop, a young man stopped me and said,
"Auntie, I will make copies for you." This young man repaired
photocopiers for a living, and he could make copies at night. Every time I gave
him something to copy, he would have the copies boxed by the next day and
delivered to me by car. He helped deliver the materials to different practice
sites. Practitioner's articles and Teacher's new articles were delivered to
every practitioner in good time this way. More and more practitioners came forward to validate the Fa. The sound of
"Falun Dafa is Good" was loud and clear all over on Tiananmen Square
in Beijing. I realized Teacher had arranged all this. Later, a practitioner
learned how to download materials from the Minghui website, so we set up a site
to prepare copies and supplied them to over 200 practitioners and the materials
needed to clarify the truth to non-practitioners. Fourth Wish: Clarify the Truth About Falun Dafa and Save Sentient Beings In 2003, I and another practitioner were arrested while delivering materials.
I was sent to a forced labor camp for two years. After I was released at the end
of 2004, I studied the Fa as if I was starving for food. Besides reading through
Zhuan Falun, I repeatedly studied all of Teacher's lectures. In the
following months, besides sending righteous thoughts and doing the exercises,
all I did was study the Fa until midnight every day. I went to bed after I sent
righteous thoughts. My righteous thoughts became stronger and my health
returned. My head was clear and I was full of energy. In 2005, I wished to help
clarify the truth and save sentient beings. I was close to 70 and didn't know
how to use a computer. The next day I ran into a practitioner whom I hadn't seen
for two years. I quickly told her I wanted to get online and needed help. She
offered to help. I was very excited. Within a few days, she helped me set up
everything I needed and arranged for a few practitioners to show me how to get
online and print out articles. I encountered a lot of interference in the
process. Teacher and the Fa had given me wisdom, so I quickly knew how to get
online, download materials, print articles, and burn CDs. I was in charge of
preparing all the materials for 15 practitioners. Initially, I sometimes couldn't turn on the computer and the printer often
jammed just when I needed to publish something quickly. It often happened late
at night when I couldn't find any one to help me. I told myself I needed to calm
down. I sat down and said to the computer and printer, "We all came here to
assimilate to the Fa and work on saving sentient beings. Why can't we do it
well? We must do it well." When I turned on the computer again, it worked
and my print job went smoothly. This type of miracle occurred often. Later, the
operations went really smoothly and I continued to supply truth materials to
other practitioners. It's been going well for more than three years now. My wish now is to do the three things Teacher asked us to do well and to look
inward during conflicts. I want to improve my xinxing, reach the standard, and
to follow Teacher home. Please point out any inappropriate statements. Thank you.
