(Clearwisdom.net) My sister practices Falun Dafa, but I do not. It is because of the Chinese Communist regime's persecution and hate propaganda of Falun Dafa, especially the self-immolation incident, that I developed misunderstandings toward my sister and other practitioners. When my sister was imprisoned due to her steadfast belief in Falun Dafa, instead of feeling indignant on her behalf, I felt embarrassed and did not want to face people. I also felt more resistance towards the practice. Although my sister tried to clarify the truth to me many times, I could not accept it because I was deeply poisoned by the Chinese Communist Party's lies.
On August 11, 2005, I had to drive to Qianxi County, Hebei Province, on business. Due to a combination of extreme heat and fatigue, I fell asleep while driving. As a result, my car hit a tree on the side of the road, fell into a trench, bounced out, and skidded onto farm land.
In shock and tightly holding onto the steering wheel, I used all my strength to push on the brakes to stop the car. The car was so badly damaged that the entire front of the car was caved in and I was stuck between the steering wheel and the car seat. Even when a kindhearted young man came to help me, he was unable to pull me out of the car. I was later pulled out of the car with the help of a few other young men. That's when I noticed unbearable pain in my hip.
I was transported to a hospital and given an x-ray. My hipbone had been fractured and the lower part of my body was in bad condition. That night, my sister arrived at the hospital to accompany me. When she saw me struggling with pain, she asked me to recite, "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance is good."
I decided to recite "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance is good." The reciting really worked because the pain started to decrease. I continued reciting the sentences that night. It was the first time I had felt the wonderfulness of Falun Dafa.
After a conservative treatment over a period of time did not work, I had to be transferred to the county hospital for surgery. However, the type of surgery that I needed required a bone specialist from the city hospital. I had to be transfered again, this time to the city hospital. At that time, changing hospitals was an ordeal and not a simple matter. I was unable to move on my own. As a result, a few men were required to carry me downstairs from my room. This would certainly cause me more pain. Worrying about this, I was unable to fall asleep.
When my sister came to help, she let me listen to her MP3 player. The music was called "Pudu" and "Jishi." Before long, I fell sound asleep. When I woke up the next morning, I excitedly told my sister, "It was just magic!" It was the second time I encountered the greatness of Falun Dafa.
The third time I experienced Falun Dafa's magic was when I was on the operating table. I needed major surgery and I was scared because I didn't know what the result would be. My sister encouraged me to recite "Falun Dafa is good" during the operation and reassured me that everything would then be all right. It really did turn out as my sister had predicted; everything went smoothly. The surgery was scheduled to take three hours, but it finished one hour early. What was even more miraculous was that I didn't really feel that much pain after the surgery. Compared with two other patients in the same ward, although they took a lot more painkillers (within two days, they took the same amount of painkiller that I took in one week), they were still moaning and groaning from pain.
After witnessing and truly feeling the wonderfulness of Falun Dafa myself, I believe without reservation that Falun Dafa is great!
During my stay at the hospital, I read many of Teacher Li Hongzhi's books and lectures. All the previous knots in my mind vanished and I came to understand why Falun Dafa must be spread today and why its being persecuted. What my sister and other practitioners are doing when they clarify the truth to people while risking their own lives is the greatest thing--they're saving people!
I sincerely hope that those who still have misunderstandings and animosity towards Falun Dafa will wake up soon and realize the truth, so that they too can feel the greatness of Falun Dafa.
