(Minghui.org) Practicing Falun Dafa has helped an ordinary woman such as myself to regain my health. The remarkable changes I’ve experienced have inspired many of my family members, friends, and neighbors to take up the practice. It’s wonderful that everyone in my family is now a practitioner living under Master Li’s (the founder) care.
Although I was only in my 40s, I had no shortage of health problems. I had pain all over; when my back acted up, I could only walk a few meters at a time before needing a break. I also suffered from a rare condition that made me involuntarily burst out laughing or crying. I am not sure when the condition surfaced, but doctors couldn’t diagnose it.
My family was extremely worried about me. My mother constantly sighed and my husband quietly shed tears while looking at our two young children. My mother found a clairvoyant to help me. I was advised to burn incense at temples high in the mountains, but after doing that for a few years and spending a lot of money, my condition remained the same.
Fortunately, I met a woman in 1997 who was a new Falun Dafa practitioner who invited me to join her. The most miraculous thing happened: about a week after I was introduced to the practice, even before I had a chance to master the exercise movements, I felt so good, like I'd never felt before, and completely forgot all my ailments.
After practicing for some time, all my ailments disappeared. A fellow practitioner gave me the two books, Falun Gong and Zhuan Falun. I spent all my free time doing the exercises and studying the Fa.
Amazed at the turnaround in my health in such a short time, it wasn’t long before my mother and sister joined me at my house to do the exercises and study the Fa.
One time at the exercise site, we sat down to do the meditation after finishing the standing exercises. I could not fold my legs properly, but my mother could. She got into the full lotus position for the first time with little effort and lasted more than 40 minutes. Although her legs were painful and numb afterward, she nevertheless got up and walked without any problem. My sister’s experience was even more remarkable. Her first meditation experience was exactly how it is described in Zhuan Falun. She felt that her legs had disappeared as well as her arms. She said she also saw a big Falun (law wheel).
At four o’clock every morning, I seemed to hear a voice waking me up. I instinctively knew it was Master reminding me to get up on time for the exercises.
In 2007, my eight-year-old granddaughter was admitted to the city hospital for having pain in her head. Even after staying there for a week, the doctors didn’t know what was wrong with her. We were advised to take her to a hospital in Beijing where more advanced equipment might help with a proper diagnosis. We had no choice but to take her home. I told her, “You have been born into this Falun Dafa family because you have a predestined relationship with Dafa. Why don’t you join me in doing the exercises and studying the Fa?” She was a good girl; she did the exercises with me and listened when I read Zhuan Falun to her. She was fine after a few days and the idea of going to Beijing for treatment wasn't necessary.
In 2009, an abnormality was detected in my newborn grandson. The doctor said he would either be mentally retarded or suffer from epilepsy. My daughter-in-law was devastated – for a few days she was in tears, sleepless, and refused to eat or drink. I said, “This child has come to this Dafa family of ours because he has a predestined relationship with Dafa. Let’s ask Master for help.” Everyone constantly recited, “Falun Dafa is great, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is great,” in front of the baby. Everything was fine with the baby when they went back for a checkup one month later. Dafa is just amazing! The child is ten-years-old now and there’s nothing wrong with him at all. He’s rather bright, too. We are incredibly grateful to Master!
My younger sister’s two sons are also blessed because she is a practitioner. Around 2008, my younger nephew, who was in his early thirties at the time, ran across the road to fetch something for me. He was in such a hurry that he did not see an oncoming car. I heard a loud bang. He was hit and thrown high up in the air before crashing down. The car braked hard and only managed to stop about 30 meters away. While witnessing the accident, the immediate thought that came to mind was: he is going to be all right! Master, please save him! Master, please save him! In shock, the car driver rushed my nephew to the hospital. He suffered no injuries except for minor grazes below his knee. They cleaned up his wound and sent him home. My nephew told me he wasn’t afraid when he was hit. The result would have been disastrous had it not been for Master’s protection.
Around the time of the 2018 Moon Festival, my daughter-in-law started crossing the road when the lights were green but when she was halfway across the street, the lights suddenly changed. A car turning left came at her really fast; it hit her and threw her quite a distance away. A checkup at the hospital found nothing wrong except for minor grazes to her face and shoulder. I knew it was Master who again saved us from harm.
I am very grateful to Master for watching over our family and coming to our aid in times of danger.
Some fellow practitioners and I had the wish to introduce Dafa to more people. So we rode our bicycles to remote rural villages to promote Dafa to the people there.
In the spring of 1999, a few days after the Lunar New Year, we went to a mine to promote Dafa. We rode on a long, steep road, but it was so easy for me that I felt like I was going downhill. I turned my head around to look back; the road looked like it was sloping down from behind me. It was effortless for me to ride uphill as if I was being pushed along. It was encouragement from Master!
On another occasion, it was March 15th on the lunar calendar, the day of the mass gathering at the temple at the Fengfeng Northern Xiangtang Mountain. I was a part of a big group of practitioners to promote Dafa there. A few of us found an empty area in the temple just below the mountain and did the exercises. Some practitioners spotted the spinning Falun while others saw other dimensions. Another practitioner and I both witnessed the amazing sight of the whole sky enveloped in a bright red glow.
It has been 20 years since I started practicing Falun Dafa in the spring of 1999. It has also been 20 years since the start of the persecution of Falun Dafa by the Communist regime. It has been difficult, but I have come through on the strength of my faith in Master and Dafa. Practicing Dafa has turned me into a happy and healthy person and brought blessings to my family. Some of us would not be around if it hadn’t been for Master and Dafa.
