Steady Your Righteous Thoughts to Save More People
(Clearwisdom.net) I started practicing Falun Dafa in 1996. I firmly
believe in Teacher and cultivate Dafa. Under Teacher's benevolent protection,
the past eight years have gone smoothly for me even as the Chinese Communist
Party (CCP) persecutes Falun Gong throughout China. The following are
cultivation experiences that I would like to report to Teacher and share with my
fellow practitioners. I was troubled by cerebral thrombosis for more than a year before I started
my cultivation. The blood vessels in my brain had 22 centimeters (nine inches)
of blockage. I stayed in the hospital for six months. When I was allowed to go
home, I could hardly speak, would fall into comatose states, and was very
susceptible to minor illnesses. I also had congenital heart disease. But shortly
after I began to practice Falun Gong, all of these illnesses were gone! I fully
experienced the wonder of Dafa. My colleagues also saw the miracle of Dafa after
noticing the big improvements in me. I felt sorry that I had not started
cultivation earlier. I also wanted to help everyone else to practice this
unprecedented Great Law. I asked Teacher to help me to introduce the Fa
to the people in my company. I took the videotape of Teacher's Fa lectures to
ask the president of the labor union to let me show it in the office during
non-working hours. We held a nine-day Fa lecture seminar at my company and
several dozen people started cultivation. 1. A Failed Brainwashing When the CCP started persecuting Falun Gong in 1999, all levels of government
in China set up brainwashing centers. I was labeled a "key" person in
our region and was put in a brainwashing session all by myself. The Party
secretary and more than ten department directors in my company came to conduct
the session. Facing such huge pressure, I told myself that I should never
disrespect Teacher or Dafa, even if they killed me. With this thought, I became
extremely calm. The Party secretary asked me, "Please tell us your
understanding of the government's banning of Falun Gong." I was not good at
speaking, but this time, words just flew out of my mouth, and they were very
appropriate and to the point. I talked about the physical and spiritual benefits
that I experienced after practicing Falun Gong, the saving of tens of thousands
of yuan in medical expenses, the changes I had witnessed in dozens
of colleagues after they practiced Falun Gong, the increased profits at the
company, and the immeasurable benefits that Falun Gong brought to the country
and the company, and so on. All of these points proved the boundless wonder of
Dafa. The officials listened quietly for several hours as I spoke. When I
finished, it was lunchtime. They had nothing to say and let me go home with
dignity. When I think back, I am surprised at how well I spoke. It was Teacher
and Dafa that gave me the wisdom. However, the wicked officials were not reconciled to their failure. They sent
two carloads of people to my home a few days later, trying to set up a
brainwashing session in my home! They also wanted to arrest me. I maintained a
practitioner's xinxing and clarified the facts to
them with my own experiences. Only my one-year-old grandson was with me at home.
He cried loudly when they tried to arrest me. Then he smiled as soon as they
left. During that time, my company sent people to harass me at home many times, but
their attempts all failed. Teacher's picture was hanging on the wall in my home.
No one dared to touch it. 2. Validating the Fa at Tiananmen Square On the afternoon of January 16, 2000, I went to Beijing and unfurled banners
to validate the Fa in Tiananmen Square. The police took my banners but left me
alone. They arrested other practitioners and pushed them into police cars. Then
they asked the practitioners, "Where did that man (referring to me)
go?" Actually I just stood there. Teacher made me invisible to them. The
Buddha Fa is boundless! In the following several days, I stayed in Beijing to
help assist groups of practitioners coming to validate the Fa. I coordinated
their accommodations and food. We also shared our understandings with each
other. Then they went to Tiananmen to validate the Fa and let many people
witness that Dafa is good. Under Teacher's benevolent protection, I was not
arrested. 3. A Policeman Came to My Rescue One morning in April 2003, when a group of practitioners and I were
distributing truth-clarification materials about Falun Gong, police cars arrived
and officers got out to arrest practitioners. I saw two practitioners being
pushed into a police car. I ran to the car to try to rescue them, but two
policemen grabbed my arms. At that moment, the driver of the police car opened
his door and put one leg out, turning his head and saying to me, "Uncle,
are you exercising here?" Then the two policemen let me go. They got in the
car and left. I felt very excited about this dramatic change. I had never seen
that driver before. It was Teacher's miracle. Teacher can do everything--it just
depends on a disciple's mind! Another time in 2003, one practitioner could no longer bear the torture at
the forced labor camp and told the police that I had organized practitioners to
hang banners about Falun Gong and distribute flyers. The police and staff from
the 610 Office in my current city came to my hometown to arrest me.
They took me back for interrogation. They ordered me to confess to wrongdoing
and kept slamming on the desk, kicking chairs, shouting and cursing, as if the
sky were going to fall. They ordered me to curse Teacher and Dafa and to give
them information. I said to myself that I would tell them nothing at all. I
would not comply with the evil even if they beat me to death. I sat there to
clarify the truth to them with a smile. I remembered Teacher's teaching that we
need to be kind to people, so I kept clarifying the truth to them with big smile
on my face. I told them the stories about the evil spirits in "A Journey to
The West," and I told them of the causal relationship that goodness begets
goodness and that evil will be punished. Surprisingly, I talked for the entire
afternoon. At the end, the police got nothing from me, but the evil factors
behind them were eliminated. At last, the police officer in charge of my case
said, "How can we close this case? We'll leave you alone after you write a
guarantee statement." Before I could respond, the head of the
610 Office said, "He has already written it." Actually, I had never
written any such thing. It was Teacher's immense benevolence that made me safe. Over these years, I have gone through many crisis situations without being
arrested. I have been able to emerge easily, saving many people. I have
distributed truth-clarification flyers, pamphlets and the Nine
Commentaries on the Communist Party. The practitioners in our region,
including myself, wrote truth-clarification information on bills of currency.
When practitioners were arrested, I went to their companies to demand their
release, without worrying for my own safety, and I persuaded all of my
relatives, friends, and colleagues to quit the CCP and its affiliated
organizations. Now it is very easy for me to talk to people about quitting the
CCP. I talk to everyone I meet on the street so that these predestined people
will not waste the opportunities for which they've been waiting for thousands of
years. Because my cultivation environment is stable, we hold discussions and sharing
with practitioners at my home. This has helped our group to work as a whole and
to elevate as a whole. All of this comes from Dafa's mighty power and Teacher's
benevolent salvation. I need to do the three things more diligently
and to save every person who can be saved in order to meet Teacher's expectation
"to be more efficient, to have a greater impact, and to save more
people." ("Fa Teaching at the U.S. Capital") to complete my part
of our historical mission, and to let Teacher rest assured! Posting date: 5/3/2008
