(Clearwisdom.net) I am 58 years old, and I began practicing Falun Dafa in 2005. During the past three and a half years of cultivation, I had so much to say to Master and other practitioners. I don't know how to start.
I suffered from a blood disease called "abnormal marrow hyperplasia syndrome" in 2003. The doctor said it could turn into leukemia if the condition worsened. It could also become "regeneration barrier anemia" if it got a little better. One year prior to practicing Dafa, I spent most of my time in the hospital. Even when I went back home, I couldn't live without taking intravenous injections and medications which involved traditional Chinese medicine, western medicine, folk prescriptions and a great deal of specific nutrient-rich foods. Once I heard about a place where I could get my disease cured. I went there to see the doctors and buy medication. However, my condition worsened day by day. The hormone therapy made my weight increase from sixty kilograms to more than seventy kilograms. Later, I found out that many of my friends and relatives talked about me secretly, and said that I might not live much longer.
Before the Chinese New Year in 2005, a relative of mine, who is also a veteran Falun Gong practitioner, came to my house several times. She told me that she had benefited a lot physically from practicing Falun Gong. She said that she hadn't needed any medicine for ten years, while her body gradually became healthier. Back then, I doubted what she said because I was poisoned by the CCP's propaganda. However, I really wanted a healthy body like hers, so I decided to give it a try. At that time, nothing else had helped with my disease.
I thought I must have had a predestined relationship with Master and Dafa. The relative brought me the book Zhuan Falun and the exercise video. In the beginning, I read the book and did the exercises, and at the same time, I continued taking medicine and intravenous injections. Through discussions with other practitioners, I realized that I needed to cultivate. I read what Master said in Zhuan Falun:
"If you hold various attachments and come to gain supernormal abilities, have illnesses cured, listen to some theories, or come with some ill intentions, that will not work at all."
Thus I decided to commit to cultivation. From then on, my body got healthier, and I became more diligent in doing cultivation.
In May of the same year, my family moved into a new apartment. In July, I held a wedding party for my son. I felt pretty good afterwards, instead of being exhausted like I would have been in the past. My neighbors were surprised to see the huge change in my health and asked how it happened. I told them that I owed it all to Falun Gong, and began to tell them about the goodness of Falun Gong, and many people subsequently recovered from their illnesses after they started practicing.
During these three and a half years, Master purified my body many times. I once couldn't help throwing up and going to the bathroom constantly. On another occasion, I got a horrendous headache. However, I maintained a strong resolve in my heart. My xinxing improved and I always followed the principles of Truth-Compassion-Forbearance. I now care less and less about emotional attachments. All the relatives in my mother-in-law's family said that I had turned into another, better person. During the years of my cultivation, all the relatives of my mother-in-law's family spent the Chinese New Year at my apartment. Thirteen or fourteen people lived in my place for several days. They had nothing to do but eat and play Mahjong day and night. I had to cook for them and organize everything. This could not have happened with my poor health in the past.
When I clarified the truth, I didn't know what fear was at first. Later, through reciting Zhuan Falun and reading all of Master's books, I got a better understanding of how to do the three things well.
In May of last year, the fellow practitioner who provided Minghui Weekly was arrested and the materials production site was destroyed. The surrounding practitioners could no longer get Minghui Weekly and materials for saving people anymore. I suddenly had a thought that maybe I could help out with that. However, I didn't know how to use a computer. I had never even touched a mouse. I wondered, can I do that? After considerable thought, I made up my mind. I withdrew money from the bank and asked my son to buy a laser printer for me. I learned how to use the computer and how to access the Minghui website by using my son's computer.
After I downloaded the first Minghui Weekly, I was so excited. Right now, I can get through the Internet blockade, download materials, print resources, typeset and copy the CD's smoothly. I now provide copies of Minghui Weekly and other materials to clarify the truth for other practitioners.
Above is my experience of cultivation. Due to the limitation of my knowledge, please point out my mistakes and offer corrections.
