In the past, I had a strange recurring dream. Every time, I would be awakened by fear, and even during the day my heart would still be filled with tremors. Each time in the dream, I would be hanging from the very edge of the roof. Even more, the surface that I was able to hold on to became smaller and smaller, bit by bit. The bottom was not the ground. It was more dreadful than an infinitely deep abyss. I can’t begin to describe the type of fear - the kind from deep down inside, till every cell in the body was filled with this fear. I had nightmares of bullets coming at me like rain, and even nightmares of being beaten to death, but those dreams were not nearly as terrifying as the first one. At the time, I had no idea why I was so frightened by this dream. Why was I so afraid of falling? But this dream always recurred every so often.
About half a year after I started practicing Falun Dafa, I suddenly remembered this dream. The dream hadn’t appeared for so long, more precisely, it had not come up ever since the first day I started cultivation practice. At that moment, I immediately understood the inner meaning behind the dream. It was a hint telling me the true meaning of my life! I am beyond grateful to Teacher Li. He has not only lifted so many lives out of hell, but also given us all the precious things that we are.
After I started practicing cultivation, there was a period of time when I wasn’t diligent and for a long time I couldn’t break through it. One evening in a dream, I saw very clearly my physical body crawling in black mud. The entire earth was covered with this filthy mud and every living being was the same as this mud. Even cells were composed of this black mud. My spirit was high above observing all of this. After a while, I saw Master coming from an infinitely far place (a place much, much farther than I could possibly imagine) to an ever so filthy and tight space – coming to teach the Fa and offer salvation to the people. At that moment, it was unthinkable; my heart was immediately filled with a boundless sense of gratitude. Moreover, I understood that this is truly a chance of one thousand years or one million years, a chance that cannot be missed.
