(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Zhang was over 50 years old. She had a pale skin, and was a little overweight. Her lips were dark purple and one of her hands trembled. All of this was caused by rheumatism. She heard people say that wearing more gold and silver jewelry would reduce the pain caused by rheumatism. She then began to wear a variety of jewelry. However her pain remained the same and had not improved a bit.
One day, one of her friends who practices Falun Gong encouraged her to give the Falun Gong exercises a try. She agreed.
The next day, that Falun Dafa practitioner introduced Ms. Zhang to another practitioner who taught her the exercises. Ms. Zhang began to practice Falun Gong. A few days later, she felt much better and the unbearable pain eased. She realized that this was a powerful practice. Therefore she carefully listened to Master Li Hongzhi's lectures each day and made up her mind that she would follow the teachings of Truth, Compassion, and Forbearance to be a good person. One month later after practicing Falun Gong, she had a more significant change. The pain in her bones and muscles that had bothered her for several decades gradually disappeared. She did not know how to express her happiness and neither did she know how to express her gratitude to Master Li. She bought many gifts, cooking oil, fruit etc. to give to the Falun Dafa practitioner who introduced her to Falun Dafa. The practitioner felt very happy to hear of Ms. Zhang's miraculous recovery, but she declined to accept any gifts. She told Ms. Zhang with a smile, “Falun Dafa practitioners voluntarily teach people the Falun Gong exercises with no charge at all.” Ms. Zhang said, “The Dafa practitioner who taught me how to do the exercises took a lot of trouble traveling back and forth every day to teach me how to do the exercises. She never ate a meal at my home and even brought her own drinking water. How can such a good practice exist on this earth? Why are these Falun Gong practitioners so good?”
One day, while Ms. Zhang was listening to Master Li's lectures, her son who is the deputy mayor of the township came home. When he found his mother listening to Falun Gong teachings, he became upset and stopped his mother from listening, as he had been deceived by the Communist regime's propaganda. Ms. Zhang tried to explain the truth about Falun Gong to her son, but he would not listen at all. He grabbed the tape recorder and tried to throw it out of the house. Ms. Zhang became very anxious and grabbed her son's hands and urged him not do it. Then she told him that if he insisted, she could return the tapes back to the owner. At that moment her son released his hands.
A few days passed. One day, suddenly many relatives came to Ms. Zhang's home. She was puzzled and did not know what was going on. Her son also came in. Ms. Zhang noticed her relatives had an unusually serious demeanor about them. Shortly after they settled down in their home, her son began talking and said he gathered these relatives to come to home to have a meeting. He said he wanted to talk about his mother's “old and confused issue.” He said his mom who was over 50 years old dared to practice Falun Gong at home and did not care about his future and the impact it might bring to him. He said it was clear that his mom was trying to ruin him. He wanted these relatives to judge the issue and chastise his mother for practicing Falun Gong. Ms. Zhang did not know how to deal with the situation. At that moment, her husband suddenly stood up and pointed at his son's face and said loudly, “You are going too far! A few days ago you grabbed your mom's tape recorder and I endured it and did not say anything. We did not expect you to come here today and bring most of our relatives here to simply criticize. Don't you know how much pain your mother has been suffering? Each night she could only sleep for two hours. All her body parts ached which made her rather die than live.” Her son said, “Then she can go to the hospital.” Her husband said, “She already went to the hospital over the past four or five years and spent over 40,000 to 50,000 yuan on medicine and medical treatment. However there was no effect at all. Now she is practicing Falun Gong. Don't you see she is becoming healthier day by day? Now she can sleep for about 6 hours. Now that she is now feeling well, I myself also feel very happy. Finally I do not need to hear her moan in agony. Moreover, your mother is over 50 years old. She is a simple woman. What are you afraid she will do? Can she rebel? Will she be able to take away someone's power? How can she affect your future? Today I want to declare that not only I will continue support your mom to practice Falun Gong, but I will also practice Falun Gong. If you don't want us living here, we can move and live in our old house in the countryside.” Her son did not say anything and then left the living room and went to the bedroom. Her relatives then surrounded her and asked her about Falun Gong. Why it is capable of such a miracle? Ms. Zhang told them how she learned about Falun Gong and the huge changes that happened to her. She told them that Falun Gong is extremely good and how Falun Gong practitioners are all very nice and kind. She told them how they go out of their way to help others and do not charge a penny for teaching the practice. After listening to what Ms. Zhang said, they all were touched. Some of them immediately stayed and learned how to practice Falun Gong. Unexpectedly, a tense family confrontation, turned into a peaceful Falun Gong meditation class.
A few months later, Ms. Zhang and her husband moved to live in the countryside and helped more people to learn about Falun Dafa.
