An 81 Year-Old Woman's Testimony: the Miracle that Took Place Under the Wheel of Bus Number 22

Aug. 11, 2004 |   By Wu Xinglan in China

(Clearwisdom.net) My name is Wu Xinglan. I am 81 years old. Because my family was poor, I had rickets and osteomalacia when I was a little girl. I developed heart disease and low blood pressure as I grew up. I have been always frail and suffered many diseases in my life. My back curved and it was like a camel, making me stand at 1.4 meters tall (4' 7") and I weighed less than 40 kilograms (88lbs.). In September 1997, I was fortunate to obtain Dafa. I was freed from the illnesses and my whole body felt so light, without any diseases, ever since. Our Teacher also protected me from death in a big disaster, and enabled me to catch up with the Fa-rectification process and clarifying the truth to save all beings. Now I want to write down my experiences to validate Dafa and expose the lies that Jiang Zemin's regime has told.

It happened on May 13, 1999. That day I took Kunming bus number 22 to the final destination -- the north station. Like always, I waited until all the other passengers got off and then I was the last one to get off through the front door. When both my feet touched the ground, suddenly a bus full of passengers drove very fast past me and knocked me down. Then the wheel of the bus I was on rolled over my right foot and then all the way up to the right side of my face. I shouted out, "There is a person under the wheel!" The bus then stopped.

I was lying under the tire. The front left wheel was pressed on my chest and my face tightly. At this moment, people in the station ran over to me and were trying to drag me out from under the wheel. But I was pressed down by the wheel and they could not pull me out. Someone told the driver to back up the bus. The driver was so scared that he could not drive any more. Thus, everyone pushed the bus back. The wheel then rolled over my abdomen and weighed down on my right foot. They still could not pull me out. People pushed the bus back one more time and finally dragged me from under the wheel. They helped me sit up. I saw that I was surrounded by many people who were watching what was going on.

I moved my leg and felt OK. I could move it. I tried to stand up and said, "I am OK, you can go now. I need to go home."

The bus company management came after they heard about the accident. The traffic control policeman also came. They wanted to send me to the hospital for an exam and treatment. I told them, "I am a Falun Gong practitioner. Nothing is wrong with me. You see that my hands and my legs all can move around." But the traffic policeman insisted, "Grandma, please go to the hospital and take the exam. It doesn't matter since you don't have to pay." I thought that the government's money also comes from people's hard work. I should not waste it. I would endure the accident myself because it was my own tribulation. I then said, "I am really fine and I don't need to go to the hospital."

Everyone tried to persuade me to go to the hospital. There was a person with tears in his eyes who said, "Elder aunt, we will not feel well in our hearts if you don't go to the hospital!" I said, "Don't worry for me. I am cultivating Falun Dafa. My Master is protecting me. I won't have anything wrong."

The police officer managed to get through the crowd and wanted to take pictures with a camera to put the accident on record. I thought that if they took pictures for the record, the driver would be punished. Thus I lifted my right hand to cover the right half of my face that was badly swollen. The policeman asked me my name and address. I thought in my heart that Master said that Dafa disciples have to be good people, to be nicer and kinder. We have to think about other people first whenever we do anything. I definitely should not let that driver be punished. At that moment, even though my shoulder was so painful that I felt numb, I still tried hard to lift my forearm and move my wrist and fingers to show them. I said to them, "Look, I am fine. Nothing is wrong with me."

The head of the bus company led me politely into the office and said to me, "Since you do not want to go to the hospital, let us give you some money!" I said, "I can't accept money." He then said, "How about making a phone call to ask your family or your children to come." I said right away, "I have over 30 children and grandchildren. The majority of them do not cultivate. If you let them see my current condition, they won't let you go with it. Please don't let them know about this."

After almost 2 hours of my repeated explanations, they finally agreed to send me home.

Just before I left, I was afraid that the company would punish the driver and I said to the leader, "Please don't give a hard time to the driver. He didn't do it on purpose. I will not get you into trouble." When they took me home, my face was severely swollen. I took off my coat and hung it over my head so that it covered my face. They helped me up to the second floor. I endured the pain and insisted on climbing to the fourth floor by myself. After I entered the door, my husband did not notice my covered face and didn't realize that I had been in an accident. He invited them to sit down and asked whether I paid them or not. I said immediately, "Thank you very much. Please hurry back since you have much work to do."

After they left, I told my husband what happened to me. He then knew and didn't realize how serious it was. It was time for doing the exercises. I asked him to go to the exercise place. After he left, I lay down on the bed. My chest was extremely uncomfortable. Then, I vomited out a lot of dirty stuff. Then my abdomen became unbearably uncomfortable. I put my hands on the wall to get support and struggled to walk to the bathroom. I tolerated the terrible pain and cleaned up the rooms and floors with a mop so that my husband would not see the mess.

Some practitioners heard the news and came to see me. They saw that my right eye and the right half of my head were swollen up about 10 centimeters (4") with a distorted shape. The right eye could only open slightly. The two eye sockets and half of my face turned a dark purple color. The right side of my chest also swelled up 10 centimeters high and the entire right leg became dark purple in color. Everyone was astonished by Dafa's miracle that I didn't die in this horrible accident.

Because I continued to maintain my Xinxing [heart or mind nature, moral character] standard and persistently studied the Fa, all the swelling disappeared after 7 days. I experienced once again our Master's grand mercy and kindness. It is our Master who gave me a second life. The miracle that happened to me not only inspired practitioners but also let ordinary people see the greatness of Falun Dafa.

The third day after the accident, that driver came to see me. I comforted him again and said, "Don't worry about this event. Concentrate on your driving and do your work well."

This event was five years ago. Dafa and Dafa disciples also have experienced five years of persecution. In order to validate Dafa and expose Jiang Zemin's lies to the world, I wrote down this story that people have witnessed. I think that the bus company's leader, the workers, the traffic police, the witnesses and the driver will confirm this with their kind hearts. I want to tell people that cultivating Dafa has made me able to treat everything with benevolence. Falun Dafa benefits the country and people without any harm. Please remember the wonderful things about Falun Dafa. Your kind thinking about Falun Dafa will bring you peacefulness and happiness! You will have a different life from a difficult situation if you have kind thoughts toward it!
