(Clearwisdom.net) I started Falun Dafa cultivation practice in August 2000. I have experienced ups and downs over the past nine years. Due to Master's benevolence, fellow practitioners and I are becoming more and more determined in assisting with Fa rectification.

In September 2007, I was transferred to teach at a new school. For over three years after arriving at the new school, I paid close attention to studying the Fa, practicing the exercises, sending forth righteous thoughts, and clarifying the truth. In addition to the designated worldwide times to send righteous thoughts at six hour intervals, I also added a thought that the school would not be successful in convincing students to join the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) organizations, that the frequency of flag raising and lowering ceremonies would be fewer, and that the flag would not be flown on campus.

In September 2007, I taught the first grade, and there were 47 students in my class. Not one student in my class joined the CCP Young Pioneers on the annual "Children's Joining Day" on June 1, 2008. At that time, upper management and school counselors assisting students to join CCP organizations did not say anything in front of me, but they had some discussions behind my back. I sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the bad factors behind them and nothing bad happened.

Before the 2009 Children's Joining Day, I often sent forth righteous thoughts to prevent children from joining any CCP youth organizations and asked Master to help. In the end, no students from our school joined any of the CCP organizations. The principal and teachers all forgot about the event. On June 1, Children's Day, there was only garden touring and distributing candy to children. Later, the principal was upset that no one had reminded him about it.

When it is my week to be on duty, I only pay attention to study, civility, and politeness. I never ask the children why they are not wearing red scarves. Other teachers do the same thing I do when they are on duty. No one checks whether children wear red scarves any longer, and fewer and fewer students wear red scarves.

I appreciate that as long as we are determined to believe in Master and Dafa and to do well the three things, we can then live up to Master's benevolent salvation.
