Bearing Witness to History: Magnificent Scene of Ten Thousand Practitioners Doing the Exercises Together

December 27, 2003 |  

(Clearwisdom.net) In the winter of 1998, a fellow practitioner told me to go to the Fifth Circle Stadium (in Changchun City, Jilin Province) to practice Falun Gong at 8:00 on Sunday morning. As I rode my bicycle to the stadium, I saw many people in all directions. Men, women, older folks and youngsters were all heading to the stadium. The usually quiet streets immediately came alive. All kinds of people filled the sidewalks. It looked like a crowd leaving after a movie. A large number of bicycles even filled the slow car lanes. There were all kinds of vehicles on the highway: buses, vans, cars, all kinds of passenger vehicles. There were so many that the public buses couldn't pass. Many farmers also joined the crowd. They came in horse-drawn carts, tractors, tricycles, motorcycles, and taxis. People greeted each other in a lively way, as if they were celebrating a holiday. They entered the stadium from all directions. After a while, people filled the entire area. Everyone found a place. With the practice music, everyone stood together in an orderly way. It was neater than a trained army.

The scene was so magnificent -- ten thousand people practicing the Falun Gong exercises. The energy field was huge. We felt as if our hands were floating.

In this righteous field, we did not have any bad thoughts. I felt my body and mind being purified. The capacity of my heart was expanding. I was in a cheerful state of mind, and the atmosphere was wonderful. Standing together, we felt everything was very beautiful. The scene that day often comes to mind. We only practiced for one hour, but that entire morning and even for several days afterwards, I was immersed in happiness. It felt as if my entire body was dissolving into the Fa. It was such a beautiful feeling. I think the other practitioners had a similar feeling.

When I returned home that day, I found that all the illnesses I had suffered from had vanished. I had completely recovered. Previously, I had abnormal menstruation for several months. The bleeding continued for more than ten days or half a month. Neither Chinese nor western medicine could stop the bleeding. Although I read the book [Zhuan Falun, the principle book of Falun Gong] at that time, my enlightenment was not high. However, after I returned from the group exercise that day, everything was normal. There was not a drop of blood. It was amazing. It was Dafa that had this powerful effect on my body. I wanted to write it out, so that more people could firmly believe in Teacher and Dafa.

When I began to write this article, I experienced obstacles that were clearly interference. The first pen did not have any ink. After a while, the second pen ran out of ink too. I was cold, and my head felt heavy. However, the interference only strengthened my determination to write this article. I hope more people will write about their cultivation experiences to share with fellow practitioners.
