感恩师父呵护 认真做好三件亊
文：澳大利亚大法弟子
尊敬的师父好！
各位同修好！
随着正法進程不断向前推進，同修们都能风雨不误，不负使命，抓紧时间讲真相、救众生，我也深感大法弟子的修炼形势越来越紧迫。
师尊说：“学法不怠变在其中 坚信不动果正莲成”[1]
要做好三件亊，学法是根本。在疫情期间，因为不能参加面对面集体学法，我就在家里自己安排学法、炼功、背法和打“易讲通”真相电话。我争取每天学三讲《转法轮》、每天坚持背一小段《转法轮》，并且每天都系统的学师父的各种经文。除了睡觉的四、五个小时之外，学法、做三件事，每天都安排得的紧凑，有时连吃饭都顾不上，觉得时间不够用。生活虽然觉得紧张，但感觉状态很好，心里很充实，在师尊的慈悲呵护下，我一路坚守誓约、正念正行的走在回归的路上。
一、向内找，过好家庭关
我的老伴不修煉，以前由于对大法真相了解不多，认为我们劝三退是参与政治，也因为他的弟弟也是大法弟子，曾经被抓被判刑，导致他妈妈过早去世，因此他對大法的誤解更深了，也曾經不准我去真相点讲真相劝三退。
疫情初期，看到我全身心地投入在做三件事上，老伴说：“看见你早也读、晚也读、中午还读，不是炼功就是背法发正念，那家务谁来做呀？”他不理解、也很反感。时不时还对我发脾气。我通过大量学法，心性提高了，在法理上也有了一定的认识，我想起了师父说：“但是你们修炼中的境界、你的修炼状态，会体现在工作当中，会做的很好，把你放在哪里都是一个好人。”[2] 于是我向内找，找到了自己只顾学法炼功、很少做家务事，对老伴关心也不够，也很少和他交流。找到后，我就尽量做好家务后再做自己的事，给老伴买衣服、嘘寒问暖多关心他。
去年，老伴的家人因投资做生意失败，要向我们借几十万人民币还债，开始我不想借，因为我知道这位亲属是没有能力还的，而且这钱我是准备买房用的。我老伴是个心地善良的人，很重亲情，知道这事后几天都睡不着觉，叫我把钱借给这位亲戚，那几天我心里觉得很烦，忽然师父的一段法打進脑海中：“今后你们遇到的问题都不是偶然的，请你们要有这个思想准备。让你过些难呀，常人放不下的东西全让你放下。” [3]
我悟到这是要我放下利益之心，师父说：“我还要告诉你们，其实你们以前的本性是建立在为我为私的基础上的，你们今后做事就是要先想到别人，修成无私无我，先他后我的正觉，所以你们今后做什么说什么也得为别人，以至为后人着想啊！”[4] 我悟到了，发生这件事第一就是要我放下利益之心，第二就是要站在老伴的角度替他着想，尽量满足他的要求也帮他的家人还债，就这样我们把钱借给了他的家人。
由于通过大量学法，我的心性提高了，做事也按修炼人的要求去做了，看到我的变化，老伴也从反对我出去讲真相变成了全身心支持我做大法的各种事情。我带回来的一捆捆真相报纸他有空就和我一张张叠好、捆好让我去发。我除了在平台打电话外，我还用三部小莲花手机、一部自播手机给国内民众打电话讲真相、发彩信劝三退。我经常外出、不在家的时候，老伴主动帮我开、关小莲花手机，为了让我全身心的投入修炼和各种救人项目，他几乎包揽了全部家务。
因爲我家人囗多，连同亲家七、八个人同住，環境比较嘈杂，一楼只有一个房间，我和老伴住在一楼的房间里。所以我的学法、背法、参加网上各种交流会和打平台电活都是在房间進行的，老伴也经常在听，无形之中让老伴受益很大，漸漸的他也生出对大法无比尊重和虔诚的心，有时听到明慧交流文章时，他竟然流出了眼泪。
我家有一块菜地，离地面有三、四米高，分两级台阶，是用石头砌成的，下面是水泥地面。有一天老伴去浇菜，一不小心从最高处摔了下来，我女婿在楼上听到“嘭”的一声，赶快跑出去，我也跟着跑出去，看见老伴躺在水泥地上，我连忙大声说：“你喊‘法轮大法好！真善忍好！’”老伴就跟着喊：“法轮大法好！真善忍好!”，大家赶快扶起他，他嘴里还不断地念“法轮大法好！真善忍好!”，他走了几步，我说：“你没有事吧？”他说：“没事！”再看看他身上没有一点伤，只是在腿上轻轻的擦了一点皮。一个六十多岁的人从三米多高处摔下来，竟然毫发未损，这真是个奇迹，大法太神奇了，叩谢师尊的救命之恩！
二、在社区投信箱的修炼过程
师父说：“慈悲能溶天地春 正念可救世中人”[5]
随着正法進程越来越紧，我们除了在真相点上面对面讲真相，劝三退，还去各个社区给每位住户投放真相报纸。开始时我都是搭同修的车去派发，因为同修都有各自的工作和项目，我想不能老麻烦别人，我就自己拿上很多报纸，推上车子，再搭公交车到各社区派发。在这期间，我跟女婿学会了手机导航，使我不但不会迷路，还能结合地图一起使用，用来确定已经派发过的街道，避免漏派和重派的情况，节约了大量的时间。
有一次去离家比较近的街道去投信箱，走到一条只有十多户人家居住的街道时，我抬头一看这条路很陡，坡斜很高，心里马上产生了一种畏惧感，但我还是爬了上去，一边走一边觉的气顶胸部，走到最高处刚把报纸投進信箱，突然出现一阵晕眩，我扶住了信箱就马上念：“法轮大法好！真善忍好！”念了一会有点好转，我想为什么会出现这样的事情？就向内找，发现自己潜意识中有这样的想法：为什么不在家好好休息，要自己这么辛苦呢？其实是一个安逸心在作怪，从而被旧势力钻了空子来迫害我，我就马上发正念清除所有旧势力的干扰因素，我只走师父安排的路，以后再也没有发生过这样的事情了。
在派发报纸的同时，看到有缘人我就跟他们讲真相劝三退，后来觉得推着车子去派速度太慢了，我就买了一个很轻的背包背在身上，背包里能装二百多份报纸，手里再提一个装满报纸的袋子，这样走街串巷非常方便。我每次都是从早上八、九点发完正念后开始，一直到下午两、三点派完才回家，这段时间为了避免上厕所我就尽量不喝水，但也没有事，我知道这都是师父在加持我、呵护我，谢谢师父！
有一天因为大雾刚过，路面很滑，我背上背着报纸，手还拿着报纸，急匆匆的一不小心，脚底一滑，身体失去重心，眼看就要跌倒的那一瞬间，我稳稳地站住了！我知道这又是师父在我身边呵护着我，我心里一遍接一遍地说：谢谢师父！谢谢师父！这样的事情已经是第三次发生了。
有一次去派报纸，背着很重的报纸从家走出去搭车，从家走到车站要十多分钟，走到一段斜坡路的时候，觉得很累、很辛苦，这念头一出来，我就马上悟到了，修炼就是苦，吃苦就能消业，把那个黑色物质转化成白色物质转化成德，哪有舒舒服服就能长功。我就这么一想，马上脚步就轻松了，不累了。
在派发报纸的这段日子，我时常感到有一种奇迹，时间好象都安排好了似的，只要我出门就能顺利搭上车不耽误时间，当派发完报纸往家走，走到车站，车就来了，这大大地节约了我的时间，我明白这都是师父在我的救人路上一直加持着弟子，合十，谢谢师父！
有一次，我在社区派发报纸，我看到一位华人中年女子从家里走出来，我就走上前和她打招呼，我说：您好！出来散散步呀？她说不是，她只有十五分钟出来跑跑步然后就要回去开会了。我对她说：“我们今天是有缘相遇，我看得出来你人很善良，我有一件好事情告诉你，现在大家都在互相传递一个信息，就是顺天意做‘三退’（退出中共的党、团、队）保命、保平安，你听说过吗？”她说她没有时间了，要跑歩了，让我跟她一起边跑边讲。我就背着报纸，手还拿着一袋报纸跟她一起跑了起来，一边跑一边给她讲真相劝“三退”，大约跑了四、五分钟吧，真相她也听了，也可能被我的诚意打动了，最後她退了团，并对我说：“谢谢！”
还有一个华人男子，看到我派发报纸，就问我是不是派大纪元报纸，是义务派吗？并说：你们很辛苦呀！这么热的天气还要出来，你背着那么重的东西，这里是山路，高低起伏的，住户也稀少，他说你应该去住户密集的地方派呀。
我告诉他我们的报纸是铺开式派的，他说：哦，原来是这样。他又说：“路陡你会很累的，累了你就找个地方歇一会儿！”我说：“我不累”，他又说：“你们出门在外，英文也不大懂，遇到不好的人，你就躲开他，别吃亏，出来一定要注意个人安全啊！”我对他表示感谢，然后讲真相劝“三退”，他说他已经退了。
师父说：“大法的尊严不是靠常人的手段维护的，是我们大法弟子每个人的真正慈悲、善的表现带来的，不是创造出来的，不是人的行为、用人的手段创造出来的，是慈悲中产生出来的，是救度众生和你修炼中体现的。大家整体上都修的好，世人就会说大法好，都尊敬大法。”[6]
三、结语
在做三件事的过程中，我悟到只有学好法，修好自己，在证实法中才能正念正行，遇事向内找，才能归正不正确状态，只有学好法才能走正自己的路，让我与大家都能有颗精進实修的心，认真做好三件事，不辜负师父的慈悲救度，不辜负世人的期盼，坚守誓约，抓紧救人！
今年五月份，我发现家里大门上方、我住的房间窗户的玻璃上，窗檐的砖头上、窗侧的砖头上一共开了九十朵洁白无瑕的优昙婆罗花，我知道这是师父对我的鼓励，谢谢师父！
在这里我也要感谢曾经帮助我提高的同修。
以上是我修炼中的点滴体会，有不当之处，请同修慈悲指正！
谢谢师父！
谢谢同修！

Gratitude for Master’s Compassionate Care and My Devotion to do Three Things well
By a Falun Dafa Chinese practitioner in Australia
Greetings revered Master!
Greetings fellow practitioners!
As the process of Fa-rectification continues to advance, I am deeply impressed by the diligence of fellow practitioners, as they are able to live up to their mission of clarifying the truth and saving more sentient beings. I also feel there is increasing urgency in my own cultivation.
Master said,
“In Diligence and Righteous Enlightenment
Don’t let up in studying the Fa; amidst it transformation happens
Let nothing sway conviction; of it comes right fruit and the blooming lotus” (Hong Yin II)
Good Fa study is fundamental to doing three things well. During the pandemic lockdowns, since I could not attend face-to-face group Fa study, I study the Fa alone, practice the five exercises, memorise the Fa and mak e truth clarification phone calls at home. I pushed myself every day to systematically read three lectures of Zhuan Falun, memorise a small section of Zhuan Falun, in addition to studying Master’s other Fa teachings. Apart from the four or five hours of sleep, I studied the Fa and did the three things, so I had a very tight schedule every day. Sometimes I couldn’t even take care of my meals because I didn’t have enough time. Despite the busy life, I was in a good condition and my heart was filled with joy. Under the compassionate care of Master, I have continued walking on my path of returning home by keeping my vows, maintaining righteous thoughts and actions
1. Passing tribulations at home by looking inside
My husband is not a practitioner, and didn’t know much about the truth before, he used to think that ‘quit the CCP’ was getting involved in politics. His younger brother was also arrested and sentenced in China because of practicing Falun Gong, which caused his mother to die when she was still reasonably young. Therefore, my husband used to mis-understand Dafa, and didn’t allow me to go to the truth clarification sites to help people to quit the CCP.
At the beginning of the pandemic, my husband used to be quite upset with me, saying, “I see you reading the Fa in the morning, in the afternoon and at night. You are either doing exercises or reciting the Fa or sending righteous thoughts, but who will do the house-work?” He didn’t understand and was very unhappy with me. Sometimes, he would lose his temper. I studied a lot of Fa and my xinxing level improved, so I had a good under-standing of Fa.
Master said,
” But the realm you achieve in cultivation and the state of your cultivation will be reflected in your work; you will do very well and will always be a good person wherever you are.” (Teachings at the Conference in the Western U.S)
So, I looked within and found that I had only been reading the book and doing the exer-cises, but seldom helped with housework, and not caring enough for my husband and rarely communicating with him. After that, I only did my things after doing the housework. I also started to pay more attention to him and even buy clothes for him.
Last year, my husband’s family member went bankrupt and wanted to borrow hundreds of thousands of yuan from us to pay off his debts. At first, I didn’t want to lend the money to this relative, because I knew he couldn’t afford to pay it back, and I was going to buy a house with the money. My husband, who is a kind-hearted man and very family-oriented, couldn’t sleep well for a few days over this issue, and asked me to lend the money to his family member. I felt really upset, but suddenly Master’s words from the book Falun Gong came into my mind.
Master said,
“From now on the problems you confront won’t happen by chance. So please be mentally prepared. By enduring some hardships, you will come to let go of all the things an everyday person can’t.” (“Eliminating Karma”, Falun Gong)
I realised that this was to let me get rid of my attachment to self-interest.
Master said,
“I also want to tell you that your nature in the past was actually based on egotism and selfishness. From now on, whatever you do, you should consider others first, so as to attain the righteous Enlightenment of selflessness and altruism. So, from now on, whatever you do or whatever you say, you must consider others—or even future generations—along with Dafa’s eternal stability.”(“Non-Omission in Buddha-Nature”, In Essentials for Further Advancement)
I realized that the first requirement for me was to let go of the attachment to self-interest, and the second requirement was to put myself in my husband’s shoes and help him to help his family member pay off the debt. Therefore, we lent the money to his family member.
Seeing this change in me, my husband also changed from opposing me go out to clarify the truth to wholeheartedly helping and supporting my cultivation and truth clarification. Whenever he has free time, he folds the Epoch Times one by one which I bring back home in bundles and packed them again for me to distribute. In addition to making phone calls online, I also have three mobile phones with the ‘little lotus’ app to send messages to China, and one auto-call phone to make phone calls to China to persuade people to quit the CCP. As I am often outside clarifying the truth, he takes the initiative to manage those phone apps for me, and does almost all the housework, so that I can devote myself fully to cultivation and various truth-clarification projects.
We have a big family with seven or eight people living together, including my in-laws. The environment is noisy, and there is only one room on the ground floor, where my husband and I live. So, my Fa study, Fa memorization, online sharing sessions and phone calls to China all happened in the same room. My husband always listens to the sharing and benefits a lot from the Fa. I believe he has developed immense respect and devotion to Dafa as well, and sometimes when he listens to Ming Hui sharing articles, his eyes are filled with tears.
My family has a vegetable garden about three-four meters above the ground, with two steps made of stones and a concrete floor below. One day, my son-in-law was upstairs when he heard a loud fall and quickly ran outside. I also ran outside, and saw my husband lying on the concrete floor, having fallen from the vegetable garden above. I immediately told him: “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance is good! Quickly you need to say that!” My husband repeated, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance is good!” When we pulled him up, he kept repeating it and took a few steps. I asked, “Are you all right?” He said, “Yes, I’m fine.” When I looked at him, there was no injury on his body, just a little graze on his leg. It was a miracle that a man in his sixty years old fell from three meters without any injury.
2. Cultivating by distributing truth clarification materials
Master said,
“The Fa Rectifies the Cosmos
Compassion can harmonize Heaven and Earth, ushering in spring
Righteous thoughts can save the people in this world.” (Hong Yin II)
As the process of Fa rectification became more and more intense, we not only clarified the truth face to face at hongfa sites and asked people to quit the CCP, but we also went to each suburb to deliver the newspapers (clarifying Falun Gong truths) into mailboxes. At first, I went with other practitioners to distribute the newspapers. However, realising that they all have their own jobs and truth clarification projects, I decided I shouldn’t keep waiting for them, so I took a lot of newspapers myself, put them in a trolley, and took the bus to each suburb to distribute. During this time, my son-in-law taught me how to navigate on my phone, so that I would not get lost, and so I could also check which streets I had walked through, in order to avoid missing any or doubling up. This saved me a lot of time.
Once I went to a street close to my home to drop off truth clarification materials. I walked into a street where there were only ten houses. I looked up and saw the road was very steep, with a slope of 60 degrees. I suddenly felt fearful in my heart, but I still climbed the steep hill, and felt a bit short of breath. I repeated “Falun Dafa is good! Truth Compassion and Forbearance is good!” After repeating this to myself for a while, I thought, “Why is this happening to me?” I searched inside and found the thought of fear that flashed through my mind. Why did it happen? I realised that my subconscious mind had this thought: Why don’t you just rest at home and not work yourself so hard? I immediately sent out righteous thoughts to remove all the interference from the old forces, because I should only follow the path Master had arranged. Ever since then, such a thing has never happened again.
I clarified the truth to every person Master put in front of me and persuade them to quit the CCP, as long as I had an opportunity. Later on, I realised that pushing the trolley to deliver the materials was too slow, so I bought a very light backpack, which can hold more than two hundred newspapers. As well as carrying that, I could also hold a full bag of newspapers in my hand, so it was very convenient to walk through the streets and alleys! I always start at 8 or 9 in the morning after sending out righteous thoughts, and I don’t get home until 2 or 3 in the afternoon when I’ve finishing distributing all the papers. I try not to drink water during this time to avoid going to the toilet, and there was never a problem. I know it was all because Master blessed me and took care of me, thank you Master!
One day, it was very foggy, and the road was very slippery. I was carrying the newspa-pers in my backpack and holding a bag in my hand, and suddenly I lost my balance and was about to fall over. The second before I thought I was going to fall over, but I actually stood still! I knew that Master had protected me again, and I kept repeating in my heart: Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master! That was the third time such a thing happened.
Once I went to distribute newspapers and left home as usual to catch a bus with a heavy bag of newspapers on my back. It took me more than 10 minutes to walk from home to the bus stop. As I was walking up a hill, I felt very tired and thought it was so strenuous. But then I suddenly thought: Difficulties in cultivation actually can help us eliminate karma! As soon as I had that thought, my steps became lighter, and I wasn’t tired anymore.
During that period of time, I occasionally sensed miracles happening. Everything seemed to be arranged so well, and I could catch the bus as soon as I got to the bus stop without having to wait! When I finished distributing newspapers, the bus would arrive as soon as I got to the bus stop, which saved me a lot of time. I realised that all this was arranged by Master who gives me protection and power. Thank you, Master!
I remember one day I was delivering newspapers and saw a middle-aged Chinese woman coming out of her house, so I went up and said, “Hello! Are you going for a walk?” She said no, and she said she only had 15 minutes to go for a run and then she had to go back to her meeting. I said to her, “We are destined to meet today, I can see that you are very kind, so I have something good to tell you. Now everyone is passing on a message to each other: follow the will of Heaven to quit the Communist Party, the Communist youth league and the Young Pioneers to protect your life. Have you heard of this?” She said she didn’t have time, she had to run and asked me to run and talk with her. I ran with her, holding a newspaper in my hand and carrying a bag of newspapers. I then told her the truth about Dafa and advised her to withdraw from the CCP. After 4 or 5 minutes, she seemed to accept the truth and was moved by my honesty. She agreed to quit the CCP and said to me: “Thank you!”
Another time there was a Chinese man, and when he saw me handing out newspapers, he asked me if I was handing out the Epoch Times newspaper and if I was a volunteer. He said, “You guys are working very hard! It’s so hot and you’re carrying so heavy things. This is a mountain road, and very few people live here. You should go to a place where there are a lot of people.”
I told him that we distribute the newspapers far and wide, and he said, “Oh, so that’s it. You’ll be tired as the road is steep, so find a place to have a rest when you’re tired!” I said: “I’m not tired”, he said: “You are outside by yourself alone, and your English is not very good. If you run into bad people, just avoid him, and protect yourself! You must pay attention to your personal safety!” I thanked him, and then clarified the truth to him and advised him to quit the CCP, and he said he had already done so.
Master said,
“Dafa’s dignity can’t be safeguarded with the means of everyday people. It’s brought about by each of our Dafa disciples exhibiting true compassion and kindness. It’s not created, it’s not created by human conduct or human means. It’s born out of compassion and it’s manifest in saving sentient beings and in your cultivation. When you cultivate well as a whole, the world’s people will say that Dafa is good and will all respect Dafa.” (Teaching and Explaining the Fa at the Metropolitan New York Fa Conference)
Conclusion
In the process of doing the three things, I learnt that only by studying the Fa well, and cultivating myself well, can I be righteous in both thoughts and actions as I validate the Fa. Only by looking within when encountering troubles can I correct my wrong state. In fact, to study the Fa is to improve, only by studying the Fa well can I walk on the right path. I hope I can always maintain a diligent heart to really cultivate, do the three things well, live up to Master’s compassionate expectation, live up to the expectations of all sentient beings, keep my prehistorical vows, and hurry up and save more people!
In May this year, I found ninety perfects white udumbara flowers blooming above the front door of my house, on the glass of the window of my room, on the brick of the window eaves and by the side of the window. I know this is Master encouraging me. Thank you, Master!
I would also like to thank my fellow practitioners who have helped me to improve. These are my cultivation experience. Please kindly correct me if there is anything inappropriate!
Thank you, Master!
Thank you, fellow practitioners!
