(Minghui.org) Three generations of my family live in one large house. Our home has 22 rooms. When my son's baby is born, we will mark four generations.
We live a harmonious life because we are Falun Dafa practitoners.
My uncle visited us during the 2015 Chinese New Year and was surprised to see in our courtyard and our rooms Falun Dafa materials.
My husband told him that we practice Falun Dafa. My uncle was stunned, because he held a biased opinion of Falun Dafa. However, he was touched by the harmony in our home, and I told him that we benefited greatly from practicing Dafa and hoped that he did not believe the Chinese communist regime's lies about Dafa.
The First Practitioners in Our Home
One of our relatives from out of town is a practitioner. He came to distribute a box of truth-clarification discs in our area in 2001. He told us about many of the benefits experienced by practitioners and people who believe Dafa is good. He also told us that when facing danger or an illness, we should recite two phrases: “Falun Dafa is good; Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” These words offer only benefits, he said.
He then went on to say that the persecution violates the Chinese Constitution and that the “Tiananmen Self-immolation” incident was staged.
My husband helped this relative distribute the Dafa materials at night because the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) persecution of Dafa was still prevailing.
My husband usually suffered severe asthma attacks. His condition acted up one night. I told him to recite the two Dafa phrases and I recited them with him. He could breath again normally, so he kept reciting these phrases whenever he felt like it.
Long before that, in 1995, I was diagnosed with hyperplasia of the mammary glands, which was thought to have turned into cancer and other illnesses. Despite taking Chinese and Western medications, I found no relief.
My relative who practices Falun Dafa came to see me. He suggested that I practice Falun Dafa. So I started to practice it in 2005 with my daughter. Four months later, I was healthy and no longer experienced any illness symptoms.
My entire family witnessed my getting well again, so they were very supportive of my practicing Falun Dafa. My husband did not stop me from going out and talking about Dafa. Later, he also became a Dafa practitioner.
CCP Member Changes Attitude
My father-in-law is 88. He used to be a CCP member and believed its lies. He was very fearful because of having lived through the Party's various campaigns.
He witnessed the benefits we experienced from practicing Falun Dafa. However, when I went out to talk to people about Dafa, he tried to stop me. He was afraid that the CCP would persecute me.
His attitude did not change until he benefited from our practicing Dafa. When remodeling a part of our house, a steel ladder, which weighed more than 100 lbs, fell off the roof and landed on his head. He was thrown to the ground and his head was bleeding profusely.
I told him to recite the two Dafa phrases, and I said that everything would be fine. He indeed did so. In the end, he needed only seven stitches, returned home the same day, and worked around the house as usual. He continued to recite the Dafa phrases, and the stitches were removed after seven days—there was not even a scar.
Now, he tells everyone who comes to our home that they should recite the two phrases and that Dafa is amazing. He also recites the phrases day-in and day-out. His face is rosy and he is very healthy. He also makes dinner for us and looks for work around the house. He can even climb to the roof, and everyone finds it hard to believe that he is 88 years old.
He told a fortune teller who came to our home that his family practices Dafa and does not believe in anything else. The fortune teller left without another word.
Furthermore, my mother-in-law, 85, used to take a lot of different medication. Since she took up Dafa, she no longer complained about her old illness symptoms.
Instead of us taking care of our elders, they take care of us. The entire family experiences such blessings from practicing Dafa.
Son and Wife Witness the Benefits
My son and my daughter-in-law are college graduates. They grew up believing in modern science, atheism, and the CCP way of life. They knew that Dafa is good, but they did not believe in it.
When my daughter-in-law was three months pregnant, the baby was diagnosed with a high level of anti-B antibodies, and we were told that the baby may be deformed. I said that our family practices Falun Dafa, so the baby would be fine. Of course, I asked her to recite the two Dafa phrases.
A few days later, my son woke me up at 4 a.m. because his wife was bleeding. I told him not to worry and we went to the hospital. The doctor could not find where the blood came from, so he kept her in the hospital for seven days and suggested a DNA test.
My son and daughter-in-law refused any further tests. They decided to go home and practice Dafa instead. Now, she is six months pregnant and she and the baby are very healthy.
My entire family is very grateful to the founder of Falun Dafa and cannot find enough words to express our gratitude for all the benefits we have experienced.
