I would like to tell you this story. I have an old friend who is about my age, 58 years old. Last year, she felt very sick. I told her to try the practice of Falun Gong. She tried once and claimed that “holding the wheel” was too hard. But after that “one day” of practice, the hospital told her it could find nothing wrong inside her, despite the urgency with which she had sought treatment before that. So the pain was gone and she forgot all about the practice. Later on, she went on vacation on a remote mountain and had an accident, falling from a very high place. As she told me later on, she thought it was over for her, had there not been a very exceptional circumstance that rescued her. A few weeks later, she was in a car accident with her family. Everyone was all right, but the car was completely smashed. Yesterday, we got in contact again and had the opportunity to talk about Falun Dafa. After a while, she told me: “I see your Master now while speaking with you, he wears a yellow robe and is even smiling. I see Him like in my head. Maybe because I looked at his image on the Internet too much.” I asked her: “How is Teacher’s hair?” She told me: “Normal, black hair.” “My dear friend, I think it is time for you now to resume your cultivation practice.” I cheerfully told her so and was very happy for her.
This story tells me something very important: Our Master is so benevolent. He takes care of everyone who has once encountered Falun Dafa! Because of my “humanness”, I used to restrain myself from offering Master’s salvation to all sentient beings. I am very ashamed of myself. Do we know if all beings are already “saved”, all the beings who took our flyers on their hurrying way passing in front of us, who looked at our exercise demonstrations even for a not very long time or accidentally heard the Dafa music from far away on their road, who glanced at our Falun Dafa posters once somewhere in the town, or who read “Truthfulness, Benevolence, Forbearance” once on our T-shirts? Who knows if they are saved because of our Master’s inconceivable compassion? Master said: “One person cultivates, the whole community benefits.” Once the karma of humanity is wiped out, “new life” will appear in the new cosmos and everyone in every dimension will live happily after that in the Buddha law. Why dare we not believe that all sentient beings, including our parents, children and relatives who don’t practice cultivation yet now, but who once knew, saw, heard or were in touch with Dafa will be saved? And all will have the chance to live in such a brilliant environment.
Thanks, Master, for teaching me with this great story of your infinite benevolence.
