(Clearwisdom.net) Here I want to express my heartfelt thanks, especially to Master Li Hongzhi and Dafa practitioners, through the Minghui/Clearwisdom website. The following is my account of how I was awakened. I hope it will help awaken other people and save them.

Before I became a security guard, I worked at a cotton mill. I was fired because of my fighting and quarreling with colleagues. Nobody cared about me after that. I wandered around in society. Then I became more and more bad-tempered and had no self-esteem. At home I often bashed my family members. In society I would fight with and bully others. I went gambling, drinking, went to night clubs, and did everything possible that was bad. As I grew older, I found work with a security company under a local public security bureau. I found out that security guards were actually the violent tools of the evil CCP, and they were very corrupt. They bullied common people while doing whatever the higher-ups told them to do. For the sake of money and property, police, security guards, and gangsters colluded with each other. After I saw all these things, I started to think about it and wanted to find a way to change my life.

In October 2006, I became the chief of the security department of a factory. Soon after that, I had the same dream for several days. In my dream many patients were being taken to a hospital by car. Doctors touched the patients' heads and shoulders. When they did, the patients' heads and shoulders were immediately opened up and blood streamed down. After I woke up, I had a headache all day long and had bloodshot eyes. I didn't know why. I went to ask the locals at the company what the place was before the factory was built. The locals said: "It was a cemetery. Maybe something bad made you have that dream." So I burned a lot of paper money to drive out the spirit (a Chinese custom), but I had the same dream again nevertheless.

There was nothing I could do. Then I told this dream to Xu, the general manager of the factory. (I later learned that Xu is a Dafa practitioner.) He said: "In the factory years ago there was an elderly lady who was very sick and she had arranged everything for her death. But she started to practice Falun Dafa and recovered. As long as you genuinely want to be good and withdraw from the Communist Party or Youth League, you will be blessed."

So I withdrew from the Youth League and also withdrew for my son. Several days later I dreamed that in the west there was a whole sky of Buddha lights. A huge Buddha was waving to me. I ran to him and knelt down before him. The Buddha smiled and touched the top of my head. For seven days in a row, from December 29 to January 4, I had the following dream: in the middle there was a muddy road and on both sides of the road were red flowers that extended as far as my eyes could see. Underneath the red flowers were small blue leaves. On the muddy road there was a person that I couldn't see clearly leading me forward. On January 5, I dreamed that there were thunderstorms and the red flowers were covered by frost-like things and they turned white, and the small blue leaves kept rising up and became very big. After I woke up I told my dream to the other security guards. They said it was strange because they only knew red flowers with green leaves, not red flowers with blue leaves.

It was during the New Year's holiday and there was nobody at the company. On January 7, I went to see General Manager Xu and told him my dreams. He said that in the ancient prophecy books, it said: "When red flowers cover all of the roads, there will be famine all over the country." Also, "When red flowers finish blossoming, white flowers will follow." He said, "Your dream predicted the demise of the CCP (red flowers)." He said that only through cultivation of Falun Dafa can one change one's life. He also explained some principles to me. I was full of hope after I listened to what he said. I was very clear in my mind that this was what I was searching for all my life. I felt so light hearted.

Reflecting on my past life and the things I have done, I was a man who committed all sorts of sins and did all sorts of evil things for the CCP. Only through cultivation can I pay back my karma. Here I express my deepest regret and solemnly make a pledge to Master Li and Dafa practitioners that I withdraw completely from this evil Party; that from now on I want to be a true Dafa practitioner and cultivate the righteous way and pay back my karma; and that I will act according to the principles set forth in the book Zhuan Falun. I will set strict requirements for myself and cultivate until I reach consummation.

My respected Master Li and Dafa practitioners, please have faith in me. I will complete my pledge through my actions.
