(Minghui.org) After getting out of the forced labor camp my health improved through studying the Fa and practicing the exercises. But my abdomen and legs hurt. I thought it was because of the long hours I did forced labor while I was incarcerated in the camp.
The pain in my abdomen and legs got worse in 2018 when I bought a home and began renovating it. I had trouble walking and considered getting a cane. I could not lie flat in bed. When I lay flat, my stomach cramped and hurt. My hips hurt so much that I struggled to walk. I knew the reason was that I had attachments to fame, personal interest and sentiment. I looked within but did not find the exact cause.
When I did the sitting meditation exercise two weeks ago, Master gave me a hint to keep back upright. I suddenly recalled that Master gave me the same hint two years ago. I understood but I did not do well. I kept my back upright for a while and then I gradually slumped again.
I thought, “This time, I must keep my back upright to the end of the sitting meditation.” As a result, my body began to feel warm before I finished meditating, Afterward, my hips no longer hurt when I walked.
When I read or recited the Fa afterward, I made sure to keep my body upright. When I could not hold on, I held my calf with my hands and leaned back a little, to prevent myself from slouching down.
The next time I read the Fa, there was a gurgling noise in my abdomen. After discharging hard stools, I could easily straighten my waist. The more I'm able to keep my back upright, the better the effect.
