Just after the great earthquake in Sichuan last year, my husband and I went back to our hometown 50 kilometers away. We visited my cousin and told her family about the magnificence of Dafa and the importance of withdrawing from the CCP. We also gave her some examples of Dafa's miracles, which are described below.
Before the Chinese New Year in 2008, my younger sister called and told me, "Our sister-in-law has lung cancer. The doctor said it cannot be cured ,and the family should prepare for her funeral. You should come to see her."
After the Chinese New Year, we went to our hometown to visit my sister-in-law. She sat on a cushion on the bed and continuously coughed. She was in constant pain. Her children took care of her in turn. I told her, "I heard you have serious pneumonia (she did not know she had lung cancer yet). You are old and your immune system is weak. You need to recover slowly. Don't be afraid." Then we clarified the truth about Falun Dafa to the relatives and friends in the room and persuaded them to withdraw from the CCP and its related organizations. Later I said to my sister-in-law again, "You will be fine. As long as you recite 'Falun Dafa is good' sincerely, you will recover." She said, "I believe what you have told me. Falun Dafa is good." Then we left some truth-clarifying materials and said goodbye to everybody.
One month later, our relatives had a wedding and they invited us. We went back to our hometown and visited my sister-in-law again. She could walk and take care of herself. My brother told us excitedly, "She shouted 'Falun Dafa is good' even while she slept. Dafa is really magnificent!"
Two months later, my sister-in-law could cook again. My nephew told me, "Aunt, Dafa is really a miracle. Reciting 'Falun Dafa is good' can cure cancer. My mom is 78 years old. I really thank you for telling her that Falun Dafa is good. Dafa saved her life."
One year later, I visited my sister-in-law and saw she was sorting the corn in the yard. She was very happy when she saw us.
As we told this story to my cousin, she listened sincerely. Then she cried and told us, "I truly believe what you say. Dafa is really good. Please help me to save my daughter-in-law. She is only 51 years old. The doctor said she has late stage liver cancer. We don't want her to die. We spend 400 yuan every day for medicine to extend her life. You can encourage her to cultivate Dafa, too." I said, "Dafa is supernormal. But Dafa should not be used to cure illness. It all depends on her own fortune. If she has a predestined relationship with Dafa, maybe she can acquire the Fa. Let's visit her."
The next day, we visited my nephew's home. We had never seen each other before. After introducing ourselves, we started to clarify the truth and encourage them to withdraw from the CCP. Then we talked about the miracle of Dafa. Because the patient knew she had cancer, we told them directly, "Your mother-in-law asked us to tell you about the magnificence of Dafa." My nephew's wife said to us, "This morning I watched TV and saw the miracles that happened after the earthquake in Sichuan. People were buried for more than ten days but were still alive and were saved. I thought at that moment, why doesn't a miracle happen for me? After I developed cancer, many people came to me and tried to persuade me to believe this or that. I was not moved. But today I have heard what you said, and I believe it. Is that because Dafa will show me some miracle? Otherwise, why did I see the miracles on TV this morning? Anyway, my illness cannot be cured. I really want to study the Fa." We said, "Since you had this thought, you must have a predestined relationship with Dafa. You can start to reading Zhuan Falun tomorrow. Then you can watch Master Li's lecture videos. Later you can practice the exercises."
After she started to study the Fa, her illness and pain were alleviated. Her state of mind changed for the better. Her daughter-in-law, who is a CCP cadre in the town, was frightened after hearing that her mother-in-law had started to practice Falun Gong. She tried to stop her mother-in-law by any means possible. She said to her mother-in-law, "You can study whatever you like. But the government does not allow practicing Falun Gong. In the future, if someone learns of this, we will all lose our jobs." My nephew's wife said, "I am going to die. Only Dafa can save me."
Her family members asked her to go to Beijing with them for another diagnosis. She said she could go but she must bring the Dafa book with her. Her son said that Falun Gong practitioners were being arrested in Beijing and it was not safe for her. She said, "Anyway, I am going to die soon. If they arrest me, I will go with them and let them cure my illness. I happen to not have any money." Her son saw his mother had made up her mind and he came to agree with her.
It was strange that after one night on the train, her son and daughter-in-law felt very tired, but she was not tired at all. After the big hospital in Beijing tested her, they came to the same conclusion as the local hospital. Her son and daughter-in-law asked her to look around with them. She insisted on not going. She asked them to go by themselves and stayed at the hotel to read Dafa books. She finished reading Zhuan Falun while in Beijing.
After she came back, I brought Teacher's Lecture Video CD and The Great Consummation Way of Falun Dafa to her. She watched all the videos and also learned the five exercises. She studied very diligently. After just the first time she could finish exercises one to four, including a half-hour of the Falun Standing Stance by following the audiotape. I was afraid it was too much for her and asked her to take a rest. She said she could do it. I admired her very much. When she did the meditation exercise, she could sit in the full lotus position immediately, and she practiced for more than 50 minutes. It was really a miracle for a person as sick as she was. We did not tell her to stop taking medicine in the beginning until her feeling of pain disappeared. Someone asked her, "Are you fully recovered?" She said, "I am really fully recovered." She stopped taking medicine. All her family members were very happy for her.
After she stopped taking medicine for 28 days, I went to visit her again. I shared the experience of Fa study with her and encouraged her to continuously improve her xinxing according to the Fa. Her understanding of the Fa was still in the perceptual stage and she did not fully understand the importance of improving her xinxing. When I left her home, her daughter-in-law had just gotten off work and said to me, "Do not let me see you next time you come to my home." I was a little surprised but continued on. As she walked me to the door, her daughter-in-law had already gone into another room. She started to cry and said to me, very embarrassed, "She is such an unreasonable person. You came to my home again and again. This is all for me. She not only did not thank you, but also said such harsh words." I explained to her, "This is the chance for us to improve our xinxing. If your heart was not moved by this, you passed the test. If your heart was affected by this, it means your xinxing still needs to improve. You should not argue with her." After I finished, I saw she was still very angry. Then I emphasized it to her again.
But she did not pass the test well. She argued with her daughter-in-law right after she went back inside. She cried and shouted and continuously vomited. She had to be hospitalized again.
Afterward we heard about her situation and visited her again. She looked thin and pale compared to before. I brought Essentials for Further Advancement for her to read the content regarding how to pass the test of sickness karma and improve xinxing. She realized that she did not follow the Fa's requirement and made up her mind to continue to cultivate Dafa. After she understood how to improve xinxing and pass the test, she soon recovered and stopped taking the medicine. She saw hope again. Just at that time, her relatives came to visit her. We used this chance to clarify the truth to them and persuaded them to withdraw from CCP and its related organizations.
My older female cousin said to me with smile on her face, "The doctors said she could only survive two months at most. She was so lucky to meet you so that she could acquire Dafa and save her life. At that time I thought she would be lucky just to survive one more year. Dafa is magnificent. I really want to thank your Teacher."
Her brother-in-law came to visit her. He saw she looked very good and was not like a cancer patient at all. All her relatives were very happy for her and praised Falun Dafa.
