(Minghui.org) I began practicing Falun Dafa in July 2022, and I’m 15 years old. I’d like to tell you some amazing things I experienced.
Last June I attended a wedding with my father. He welcomed the wedding guests while I sat with my 18-year-old cousin. My cousin told me to steal two packs of cigarettes for him.
I played basketball that afternoon and was covered in sweat. I felt that half of my lips could not move when I tried to talk. I was shocked when I saw my reflection in the mirror. My mouth drooped. My mother anxiously said, “It looks like half your face is paralyzed.”
My father asked, “What did you do?”
I said in embarrassment, “I stole two packs of cigarettes for my cousin during the wedding reception this morning.”
My father said sternly, “Do you know the concept of ‘no loss no gain’? You will lose de (virtue) if you steal from others. Do you understand you will be punished for doing bad things?
I replied, “Yes, I understand.”
My father continued, “Falun Dafa teaches one to be compassionate and be a good person by adhering to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. You should start practicing Falun Dafa with me!”
I said, “Yes!”
My father and I started to read Zhuan Falun, the main text of Falun Dafa. The facial paralysis disappeared after 10 days.
My father brought me to an elderly practitioner’s house during the summer to study the Fa. At first, I felt drowsy when I read. I slowly overcame my sleepiness after I began reading one lecture in Zhuan Falun each day during the school break. When school reopened, I continued studying the Fa every weekend at the elderly practitioner’s home.
I practiced the exercises every morning with my father. I invited my classmate, Tong Tong, to my house when the pandemic was under control. I told Tong Tong about Falun Dafa and gave him some truth-clarification materials. He said his mother’s uncle practices Falun Dafa and is a very good person.
I said, “Do you know why the COVID pandemic is so severe? It’s because the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is so evil. The CCP killed many people and the bad people need to be eliminated. If you follow in the CCP’s footsteps you will face danger. You should quit the CCP’s Young Pioneers and distance yourself from the Party.”
Tong Tong agreed to withdraw and took some truth-clarification materials home.
The teachers did a tally count of those who were infected with the COVID virus. It turned out that I was the only one who did not get infected. I remember being doubtful of Dafa when I first started studying the Fa. I firmly believe in Dafa now. I believe that Master protects practitioners in times of danger.
A classmate and I went out together one time and when he saw a truth-clarification flyer, he cursed Falun Dafa.
I said, “Do not believe what you see on the news. Falun Dafa is good. Falun Dafa teaches people to be compassionate and guides them on a righteous path. Practitioners do not kill, commit arson or do bad things. They are also protected by Master in times of danger.”
Some of my classmates agreed while others made fun of me and said they did not believe it. When those who laughed at me learned that I was the only person who was not infected by the COVID virus, they said, “I now believe what you say.”
It proved that Falun Dafa practitioners are protected by Master and will not get infected by the virus.
There is a flag raising ceremony every Monday. and I always silently send righteous thoughts and eliminate the CCP element.
While I sent forth righteous thoughts one Monday, I heard a classmate say, “The flag is stuck. It won’t go up or down.”
I saw that the flag was stuck in the middle. The teachers couldn’t do anything but end the ceremony. I knew this was the result of sending righteous thoughts. I deterred and eliminated the evil communist factors.
The influenza A virus has recently been going around, and many students in my school were infected. My desk buddy had a fever and coughed. I was not worried. I recited, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” Amazingly, I did not get the influenza A virus, but all my classmates did. I was completely fine! I treasure this precious opportunity to practice Falun Dafa.
I think that I have a predestined relationship with Master. I thank Master for protecting me at all times.
