(Clearwisdom.net) Soon after I started practicing Falun Dafa, I read an experience-sharing article written by a practitioner in Beijing. She had severe kidney problems, and was diagnosed with late stage uremia. She was told that she would die within 6 months after she visited well-known doctors in the capital city and tried out various traditional Chinese remedies. The doctor said that she could only sustain her life by hemodialysis to replace the kidney function, cleaning out the waste in her system. Otherwise, she would die from the toxic waste inside the body. Hemodialysis cost a lot of money, more than 100 thousand yuan per year. Her family tried to ask her employer to pay for them, but they could not bear such a high cost. So she was waiting for death at home, totally hopeless. When I read to this point, I suddenly realized that I had met her before during her treatment at the hospital I worked at. I remembered that her face was dark brown, her eyes were filled with hopelessness, and her family members cried quietly as they begged us to save her life. How could I forget her helpless situation! It was her! I remembered her name quickly, and could not believe that she was still alive! I was shocked, "Does she practice Falun Dafa--" At that point, I had just started practicing Falun Dafa. The teachings of Master Li and the miracles of Falun Dafa moved me greatly, but I was moved even more by the miracle that I was intimately familiar with.
She said in her paper that she felt her days were numbered when one of her relatives sent her a copy of Zhuan Falun. She finished the book with tears in her eyes, feeling so lucky to hear the Buddha Law during what had seemed like her last days and coming to understand the meaning of life. With her new understandings of life and humanity, she felt no more regret. She went to find a Falun Dafa group practice site the next morning, hoping to assimilate to "Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance" as much as possible in her limited time that was left. She earnestly studied the Fa and set forth high requirements for her conduct, and practiced the exercises. The cultivation quickly turned her into a healthy, energetic person with rosy cheeks. People said that she looked more than 10 years younger. She said that she was so thankful that the hospital gave her a "death sentence" so that she would be pushed to try Falun Dafa. The doctors predicted that she would die soon since her kidney failure. She is not only still alive--her life has been changed completely for the better.
I was in tears, because I felt the grand mercy of the Buddha Law. Master Li said in Zhuan Falun,
"Nobody is more precious than a cultivator as we see it,"
"When a person wants to return back up from this dimension, to do what Daoist practices call 'returning to the original, true self,' he will need to put his heart into cultivation, which means his Buddha-nature has come out. And that wish is considered the most precious one. So people will help him. Even in such a tough environment, he hasn't gotten lost and still wants to return, so people will help him, they'll help him unconditionally, and they'll help him with anything."
Modern science pronounced her condition to be terminal, and the "money talks" society that we live in pushed her closer to death, while Falun Dafa was able to cleanse her body and start her down a path of cultivation back to her original, true self.
My specialty is in kidney disease, which taught me that if one's kidney lost function of getting rid of waste, then life cannot be sustained unless a machine performs that function. Her testimonial helped me see that Falun Dafa is a true science and miraculous.
Modern science is able to dissect each internal organ, and seemingly displays everything in front of people's eyes. The function of each organ is studied carefully, so much so that an expert might study one protein or gene all his life. Scientists thought that they could solve the mysteries of life like this, but in the eye of a great enlightened being, they are doing so in vain. Master said in Falun Dafa, Lecture in Sydney,
"The way modern empirical science develops now is very clumsy and slow. It is really like a blind person groping an elephant. It cannot recognize the existing form of matter in the entire universe and cannot recognize the existence of the characteristics of the universe. Accordingly, if it touches a bit of something, it will take it as the whole. It has only touched the leg of the elephant and claims, 'Oh, science is like this. This is the science that really understands life and matter.' It cannot see what this entire elephant is like. Thus, it cannot understand that the universe is made of countless and different time-spaces, nor can it understand other dimensions and the existence of other forms of lives as well as matter."
Why can terminally ill patients of leukemia, kidney failure, heart failure and late stage cancer gain second lives after practicing Falun Dafa-- Science has set boundaries for itself by the definitions and results from experiments in the past, and these are often taken as the immutable fact. Take this fellow practitioner's case for example. Her kidney tissues and cells were in an atrophied, sclerosis state. No drugs could make this kidney function again, which means that this condition surpassed the bounds of modern medicine. Meanwhile, this is something that can be easily taken care of by things at higher levels.
Master Li said in Falun Buddha Fa - Teaching the Fa at the Conference in Europe,
"This is because the illness doesn't originate from the outermost surface of an ordinary human's physical body; rather, it comes from the plane of microscopic particles beneath the body made of the largest molecules. The human body is composed of molecules that have particles at different microscopic planes, and each plane of particles is a dimension. Of course, the dimensions aren't stacked up together. They are in the form of smaller particles comprising larger particles. Yet the realm of each plane of small particles is a dimension. There are many dimensions like these, and it's actually there that the causes of many illnesses reside. Illnesses don't come from the surface. What appears on the surface of a person's flesh or tissues is only the superficial manifestation of an illness."
Since the origin of the sickness is at the microscopic level, it is out of reach for human science. Modern science is trying to find the cause and cure of the sickness from the molecular level, and the tissues are abnormal at the molecular level, but it is hard to for most to imagine how sickness changes things at a level more microscopic than molecules. Enlightened beings can eliminate the cause of that sickness because they can access dimensions more microscopic.
Master also said in Falun Buddha Fa - Lectures in the United States,
"As you know, humans are very deficient. How deficient-- If humans want to accomplish something or do something, they need to use their hands and feet--they need to use physical labor to get it done. But Buddhas don't. Buddhas only need to think--the thought alone is enough, because Buddhas have a lot of divine powers, many supernormal abilities, and they also have their own powerful gong. Each microscopic particle of that gong is in the Buddhas' own image, and those microscopic particles are made up of more microscopic particles, all of which are in their image. Think about it, their gong goes out the moment their thought emerges. Starting from the extremely microscopic level, it changes the structures of particles of different levels. And the time they use is that of the fastest dimension, so it's done instantly. Buddhas do things very quickly, as they aren't restrained by this dimension and time of ours. They instantly change an object from its very foundation into something else. This is how Buddha Fa's divine power takes effect."
Operating at a more microscopic level, it is simple for an enlightened being to correct an abnormality. Then, if you check the result from this dimension, the atrophy and sclerosis are quickly gone. Of course, this is only my personal understanding. What an enlightened being can do with his energy in a microscopic realm is beyond description. If one wants to assimilate with the characteristics of the universe - "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance," enlightened beings can help him unconditionally.
