(Clearwisdom.net) I was so fortunate to obtain the Fa in 1998 when I was 52 years old. Before that, I had many illnesses, including heart problems and liver disease. I often suffered from back pain, leg pain and stomachaches, which made it difficult for me to eat or walk. At that time, I weighed only about 70 lbs. Life was truly miserable.
A friend introduced Falun Gong to me. Upon hearing that Falun Gong had miraculous effects of healing and fitness and could truly guide people to higher levels of morality, I was very interested and went to a practice site. At the practice site, I felt very comfortable while listening to practitioners read the Fa, and I experienced a wonderful feeling that was beyond words. I immediately decided to begin practicing Falun Dafa. I began going to the practice site every day to study the Fa and do the exercises. After about 20 days, my condition drastically changed. I was able to eat whatever I wanted. My body was very light, as though I was walking on air. All my illnesses disappeared, and I felt as if I had become another person. Master had purified my body and let me reach a state free of illness. How miraculous Falun Gong is! The amazing changes I experienced strengthened my firm belief in practicing Falun Gong.
I was born into a poor family. My father suffered from illnesses for many years. I never went to school and therefore was totally illiterate. When practitioners studied the Fa together, I could only listen to the others reading, and I had to be skipped when it was my turn. I felt very upset about this, thinking, “How nice it would be if I could recognize some words.”
Nevertheless, I kept going to the practice site every day. When I returned home, I asked my family members to teach me words so that I could read Zhuan Falun. However, as I read to the ends of paragraphs, I forgot the words at the beginning. This caused me to have to ask them again and again, and my family became tired of helping me, and sometimes complained. Holding Zhuan Falun in my hands and looking at Master’s image, I cried, “How wonderful it would be if I could recognize the words. How wonderful it will be if I could study the Fa by myself.” I held the book and cried like this every day, feeling deeply upset. There really are no words to express how sad I felt during that time.
One day, I wept very bitterly while holding Zhuan Falun. As I was crying, I suddenly felt a red light in front of me. I opened the book and was surprised to find that each word in Zhuan Falun was golden and shiny. I thought my eyes must be blurred because of my tears, so I dried my eyes and took another look. I saw each word in the book was covered in colorful, sparkling lights, and they were circling and rotating, from inside to outside. There were red lights, yellow lights, green lights, blue and purple lights. It was really beautiful. As I continued watching, each word became crystal-like, as though they were embedded in glass, and then one by one they became three-dimensional. It was so spectacular that I don’t have any words to describe it. I knew Master was encouraging me, and helping me strengthen my will to practice cultivation.
That evening I had a dream, in which I felt every word in Zhuan Falun flying into my brain, and my consciousness was very clear and real. The following morning, I was able to recite Lunyu from Zhuan Falun. I was so amazed. How extraordinary Falun Gong is! I don't know how I was able to do this. I quickly opened Zhuan Falun and found I was able to read it! I asked my family to check whether I read the words correctly. It turned out that I was reading all the words correctly.
Seeing someone illiterate suddenly become able to read overnight, my family members realized that Falun Gong was indeed miraculous. Other people who heard this story also said that Falun Gong was inconceivably amazing.
The miracles manifested by Dafa are sometimes difficult to explain to everyday people, and for them to understand. In order to read Zhuan Falun, an everyday person has to learn to read for several years, starting from early childhood. However, an illiterate person in their fifties was able to read it overnight. How amazing! This is how extraordinary Falun Gong is. Master gave me the wisdom to do this. I can now read all of Master’s articles.
I have kept on doing the three things to save sentient beings and to closely follow Master’s Fa-rectification process. I’ll continue studying the Fa more and saving more sentient beings to fulfill my vows and return to my original place with Master.
