Let's Be Diligent so Our Compassionate Master Can Worry About Us Less

By a practitioner from Hebei Province

(Clearwisdom.net) I started to practice Falun Gong in 1998. At the time, I was not diligent in studying the Fa and my enlightenment quality was very poor. Even so, our compassionate Master did not leave me behind. He opened my celestial eye for me and I saw scenes in other dimensions. Master encouraged me to cultivate diligently and to catch up with others.

However, I was holding on to human notions and hadn't let go of the attachment of seeking comfort. I was satisfied with being a good person. I didn't really treasure the good things that Master gave me. Then the persecution began. In my heart I knew that this Fa was good, but out of fear I stopped cultivation and gave my Dafa books to the local Public Security Bureau. I only kept Zhuan Falun with me. I did something that a practitioner shouldn't do. I did not go to validate Dafa and did not do what a practitioner should do. At the time, many practitioners stepped out to validate the Fa, but I hid away at home instead. I became an ordinary person again and diseases returned to my body.

In the middle of October 2002, I suffered from heart disease and spent a lot of money treating it, but I didn't get any better. I spent all the money my family had. Then I thought of Dafa and Master and wanted to practice again. That very night, our compassionate Master arranged a fellow practitioner to visit me at my home and to study the Fa and practice the exercises with me. Soon after I recovered, but Master had borne a lot for me.

After that, fellow practitioners came to study the Fa and practice the exercises together with me and we were rarely disrupted. Encouraged by fellow practitioners, I returned to Dafa, but due to my human notions, I was lazy and slack. Whenever I didn't want to study the Fa or practice the exercises, Master arranged practitioners to come to my home and pull me forward on the path of cultivation. Some destitute practitioners were arranged to come to my home and they were very diligent. They also helped my husband to cultivate. When I looked back, I realized that it was Master who arranged this for me out of His compassion.

Because my husband and I both practice, my home environment is very good. Practitioners from other places always come to stay at my home when they come to our town. I provide them with a good environment. Local practitioners also hold small-scale Fa conferences at my home and we thus help each other cultivate diligently. Our home becomes the place for practitioners to study the Fa, practice the exercises and send forth righteous thoughts. We go out to clarify the truth on weekends and holidays and go to remote areas to distribute materials and help people withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations.

In 2003, fellow practitioners and I opened a kindergarten. We did this according to Master's requirements. We tell good stories to the children and have them listen to Dafa music to foster their good nature. We take every opportunity to clarify the truth to the parents and ask them to withdraw from the CCP. When we do well, the kids also behave well and seldom get sick. People in the village all know that this kindergarten is set up by Falun Gong practitioners and that we are very responsible. Many people prefer to send their children to our kindergarten. At one time, several parents did not know the truth due to the evil persecution, and stopped sending their children to us. However, soon after they sent them back to us because the kids didn't want to go somewhere else. Nevertheless, we went through some tribulations. With Master's help and our righteous thoughts, we dissolved them. Our kindergarten is running well so far and has played a role of validating Dafa.

I still have a lot of work to do. I will be strict with myself according to Master's requirements during Fa-rectification cultivation and will cultivate diligently with other practitioners.
