(Minghui.org) I started practicing Falun Gong in late 1995. My family and I have benefited from the practice in many different ways. I would like to share a few stories to help illustrate what a great cultivation practice Falun Gong is.
A 20-year Illness Disappears
Fate brought me to Falun Gong. I wasn't looking to be healed when I started. Actually, I didn't know Falun Gong was capable of treating illnesses at the time. I was drawn to the exercise music one morning in a park, where people were doing the exercises, and I was captivated by the serene music. It was so ethereal and graceful. It was unlike any music I had heard before.
I subsequently attended a nine-day lecture video series. The video was recorded in Jinan, China. I fell asleep while watching the video on each of the first three days, as soon as the video started. I couldn't stay awake even though I really tried. I woke up as soon as Mr. Li Hongzhi finished the lecture. It was quite embarrassing.
Nonetheless, I was full of energy after the initial three days. I had never felt more clearheaded. In the past I often felt dizzy and my eyes felt irritated. Medicine didn't help. I had this problem for over twenty years and it disappeared after just three days.
I had received medical treatment and taken qigong classes to alleviate a long litany of illnesses, including heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis, hypertension, anemia, peripheral neuritis, neurological disorders, and cardiac insufficiency. After I started the Falun Gong classes, they resurfaced and then disappeared altogether within six months! For the first time in twenty years, I finally knew what it felt like to be healthy.
I had tried western prescription drugs, Chinese herbal prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, and herbal therapy. I am not exaggerating when I say that I bought herbs by the sack full. I practiced many different schools of qigong. I had worshiped the Buddha in Buddhist temples and I made a lot of donations. I would try just about anything to make myself healthy again. I was content as long as the remedies kept me from being hospitalized and free of personal assistance. I was satisfied just keeping the illnesses under control. After listening to Mr. Li Hongzhi's lectures I realized that medical treatments were only suppressing my illnesses, not actually removing them. It was Falun Gong that truly eliminated these illnesses permanently.
Supportive Husband Becomes Healthy
My husband used to suffer from chronic inflammation of the stomach lining. He also suffered from tonsillitis, hemorrhoids, and beriberi. When his gastritis acted up, he couldn't even drink water. When he had tonsillitis, he would get a fever and need an IV for a month.
He knew that Falun Gong was a great cultivation practice because he had witnessed the transformation of my health. He was very supportive of me despite the Chinese Communist Party suppressing Falun Gong in China. He also quit the Chinese Communist Party student youth leagues. Before he realized what was happening to him, all of his diseases were gone. He has not been sick for more than ten years.
Brother-in-law Recovers from Osteomyelitis
My brother-in-law is a carpenter for a construction company. He had an accident in May 2000, while working overtime. He cut off a middle finger with a chainsaw by accident. The hospital attempted to reattach the finger twice, but failed. He developed osteomyelitis, infection and inflammation of the bone. He had a high fever that wouldn't recede and he was in a critical and deteriorating condition.
I told him, “The doctor is obviously having difficulty saving your life. Only Falun Gong can save you now.” He immediately asked to listen to the Falun Gong lectures. His fever receded the same day he started listening to them, and he checked out of the hospital the next day. He continued listening to the Falun Gong lectures at home and recovered from the osteomyelitis without medical treatment. After four weeks, he started working again.
I practice Falun Gong, and my family and relatives have also benefited from the practice. I hope that my personal stories will help people gain a better understanding of Falun Gong. Don't believe the lies the Chinese regime has spread about the practice.
