Much Happier than from Winning the Lottery

[PureInsight.org] I was
thinking that no one can predict who will continue practicing. In fact,
many things are not absolute. Jian and her friends attended the Qi Gong
class held at GuoXiao.  Because her ankles became more and more
inflexible, Jian wanted to improve here ankles by doing the exercises.
Since then, she has continued doing the exercises until now. She gets
up very early in the morning, doing the exercises and reading the book.
She had a large harvest. It is because she gained so much that she can
continue doing the exercises until today.



When Jian saw me, she started to complain: "You really do not behave
like my friend. We have known each other for several years. You did not
even tell me such good exercises until now."



"You should not blame me. I started to learn this exercises only in the
past two years.  I told you immediately once we were going to have
a class. Anyway, it is not easy. Do you know that you are the only one
who continues doing the exercises among all those people who came to
learn the exercises together?" Some people could not get up early in
the morning. Some people were too busy with their work. 
Therefore, they stopped. This actually reflects the weak point of human
beings: looking for comfort and being afraid of hardship. Even though
knowing the goodness, they are not determined and do not have the
willpower. Nowadays, not only the young people, but people of all
different ages also have these bad habits. It is very difficult to
overcome them. Do you think that it was due to the predestinated
relationship - Yuan? They just could not come into the room even though
they were by the door.



"I used to have many illnesses and always took medicines. Now, I feel
that my body is very light. Especially, I always have a good night
sleep. When I wake up, it is always the  next morning. In
addition, the most important thing is that I can let a lot of things
go." She was happy and pleased with herself. She continued:



"Before I practiced, all my life was about my husband. I will be very
nervous even when he sneezed.  I was worried about whether he was
having an adulterous relationship with another woman. I was very
jealous. Therefore, I suffered a lot. I did not eat well or sleep well.
In the end, the things I worried about the most finally happened. Even
though we did not talk about it and we both were afraid of breaking our
relationship, we hid our anger in our hearts. We just lived like that.
It was so hard. Now, I totally understood. The sentence" Put it down;
you will feel the lightness of your body."  It was like a wooden
stick that woke me up.  It opened my heart. Now my body is very
light. Once my husband left home, I used all the time to study the Fa
and do the exercises.  I am so happy. I am telling you. I am much
happier than wining a lottery."  Jian was so exultant when she was
talking.  You can tell the happiness in her heart.



We were talking while preparing a meal. The winter melon soup in the
pot was boiling.  When the lid was opened, you saw the winter
melon with the skin.



"You also know that the winter melon skin has a lot of nutrition."



"Yes, I learned it from TV."



"Your idea is not bad."



"As long as it is a good idea, I will accept it. It does not matter if it is an old idea or a new idea."



"You are right. Stubbornness will make you lose. It even annoys other people."



"After I practiced for a while, I felt really good. My body had a big
change. I used to have a lot of illnesses. After practicing for a half
year, I do not even take any medicine." I am really happy for Jian.



She sat in a lotus position very easily.



"You see, in the past, the doctor asked me to have a shot every week.
It was so hard to walk at that time. Ever since I started to practice,
I am very flexible. Now I can sit in the  lotus position for an
hour." She really amazed me. At that time, Jian was not only the oldest
one, but also the fattest one. It was very hard for her to sit in
single lotus position. I could not believe that she can sit in lotus
position in such short period of time. This teaches me a really good
lesson: you can't judge people based on their looks."



"I think that you must have been practicing very hard over the past half year."



"What you said is true. I felt the change in my body every day.  I
went out very early in the morning. I am always the first one who
arrived at the practice site. When I study the Fa, I always go to the
first page, thank our master and then start to study the Fa. I can sit
there for the whole afternoon. Having good health, everyone in the
family is safe – this is the thing which makes me feel comfortable."
While we were talking, Jian made a cup of Luo Sheng flower tea for me.
When the flowers were soaked in the water, you could see the brightness
and the transparent red in the cup, which looked like the red cheek of
a little girl. I looked at Jian, her radiant and red face is really
beautiful.



"Jian, you are more beautiful than before."



"I believe what you said is true. Practice can improve one's looks. Now
I can save a lot of skin care money. Not only that, I save money on
healthy food, medicine. Most of all, I think that having a peaceful and
relaxed mind is the most important thing. You can not buy that with
money."



"Jian, this time you really gained a lot."



"Ha, Ha, I am greedy." Jian started to laugh openly.



"Jian, your experience is very special. Did you share your experience with your friends around you?"



"Tell you the truth; I am afraid of telling this to my friends. I am
afraid of other people's rejection. I shared it with my family first.
My son, who is in college, told me that he does  not have time.
But he has time to date his girl friend. But I always remind him to do
the exercises every time he leaves home for school."



"It is possible that other people do not understand you. But we can
still tell them. It is hard to tell who has the predestinated
relationship. When I invited you to come to the class, I did not know
that you had a predestinated relationship with this."



"I should thank you. Ha! Ha!" Jian's laugh circled around in the air.
Her purity and happiness really touched me. It made me feel so
comfortable. It's like the sunshine which is bright and warm."
