(Minghui.org) I am 82 years old and started cultivating in Falun Dafa in 1996. I have been immersed in Master’s vast benevolence since that time. I have also seen and experienced many amazing things. I would like to share some of them with everyone. I sincerely hope that people with predestined relationships will feel the goodness of Falun Dafa through my testimony and choose a bright future for themselves.
Witnessing Falun Personally
After I started cultivating in Falun Dafa in 1996, I saw Falun a number of times. The color and size of these Falun differed each time, and when I saw them I felt it was miraculous, solemn and sacred.
I went to the Tianjin Institute of Education with other Dafa practitioners on April 23, 1999, to explain the facts about Falun Dafa to the authorities. That evening while we were all gathered together someone shouted, “Falun! Look, Falun!” We looked up and saw countless large Falun in the sky.
On July 20, 1999, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started to persecute Falun Dafa. On July 22, I was detained at Beijing’s Fengtai Stadium along with fellow Falun Dafa practitioners who had come from all over China to petition for Dafa. That night, there was a sudden commotion at the stadium as countless large Falun appeared in the sky. I still remember the scene. Practitioners looked up into the sky in unison, and put their palms together in the heshi gesture and shouted with tears in their eyes, “Thank you Master! Thank you Master!” Several plainclothes and uniformed police who were standing facing us shouted loudly, “What are all of you looking at?” “See what?” “What did you all see?” “How come we can’t see anything?”
The morning of July 23, a series of trains sent Dafa practitioners who had been detained at the stadium back to their hometowns. I still remember that the weather that day was especially fine. The sky was so clear with no clouds at all. Instead, it was full of large Falun that accompanied us on our way. Under Master’s benevolent protection, we returned home in an open and dignified manner. We were full of emotion! Thank you Master!
One day in October 1999, I heard that the evening news broadcasts were going to proclaim Falun Dafa an illegal organization, so I set off for Beijing again, but was arrested unexpectedly. While I was in jail, I wrote an appeal letter with the help of a female police officer who understood the truth about Falun Dafa. I wanted to seek justice and redress for Dafa. I wanted to seek redress for Master. The female police officer overcame some barriers to help me send the letter. I was looking out the window that night and was just about to meditate when I saw a large Falun coming gradually from afar. It grew larger and larger and then gradually disappeared.
Experiencing Dafa’s Miraculous and Supernatural Healing Powers
Before cultivation, I had many illnesses. When I was in secondary school, I had to drop out of school three times due to illness. I did not need to go through unofficial channels to get a diagnosis report, as almost every part of my body was sick. Some of the illnesses that I suffered from were neurasthenia, sinusitis, tonsillitis, bone hyperplasia, rheumatism, arthritis, frozen shoulder, lymphatic tuberculosis and bone tuberculosis. For a very long period of time, the joints in my right leg could not bend and I could not lift my right arm. My mother shed countless tears and we spent a great deal of her savings on medical bills. The pain and hardship was beyond words.
Twenty-five years ago, on May 13, 1996, I started cultivating in Falun Dafa after a colleague introduced it to me. I still remember that the day that I obtained the Fa, many symptoms suddenly disappeared. It was so miraculous. I am really thankful to Master and Dafa for making me the luckiest person! Thank you Master for giving me a new lease on life and a wonderful future!
Two years later, I was carrying a few bags of tasty food over to my daughter’s house. Just as I reached an intersection, I tripped over the curb and fell. The bags were flung into the air, and I felt my right knee land on top of the curb. I quickly got up, picked up the bags and continued walking. After reaching my daughter’s house, I saw a red patch on the knee of my white pants. After taking off my pants, I saw an open wound on my knee that resembled the opened mouth of a child, but it did not bleed. I politely refused a few kindhearted people's suggestion to go to the hospital. I just did the exercises and meditated as usual. Three days later, the wound closed up! Isn’t that miraculous? Thank you Master!
I was at the Tian Guo Marching Band’s group practice site once when I suddenly felt giddy, as though the whole world was spinning. I felt nauseous and my stomach was churning. I could not control these sensations. It felt as though a dam had just given way, and I collapsed into a chair. My mind went blank and the sounds around me seemed very far away. A practitioner supported my body and tried to help me lean on the chair, but I did not have enough energy to take on any of my own body weight. Someone who had studied medicine observed my symptoms and thought that I had suffered a stroke. I felt as though my main consciousness had left my body.
Someone called an ambulance. When the ambulance came, the emergency medical technician (EMT) wanted to take me to the hospital. I told him that I was not going because I was not sick. The EMT placed me on a stretcher, but I said that I wanted to go to the bathroom. The EMT then said, “No one is to help her. If she can climb off the stretcher herself, then she can choose not to go to the hospital.” At that moment, I thought to myself, “I am a Dafa practitioner. I have Master and the Fa so there is nothing to be afraid of! There is no problem at all!” I then really sat up in the stretcher. However, as I was still very giddy and weak, I could not move. The practitioners around me started encouraging me, “You can definitely do it! If you can come down by yourself, you will not need to go to the hospital.” I summoned all of my strength and climbed down from the stretcher. The practitioners clapped to encourage me.
I entered the bathroom with a practitioner supporting me. But after I sat down, I could not move again. I thought that the ambulance would leave while I was in the bathroom, but the EMT insisted on waiting for me to walk out of the bathroom. So I thought in my heart, “I believe in Master! I believe in Dafa. I hand everything over to Master.” I pulled my strength together and walked out to the lobby and sat down to sign for EMT. Both of the EMTs walked over. The female EMT did not mind that I was dirty and walked over to hug me, saying, “I have been an emergency medical technician for many years, but I have never come across a case where an ambulance came but could not manage to get the patient to leave. This is really unbelievable. I have seen your band march before. You Falun Dafa are really great!” Both of the EMTs personally witnessed the miraculous and supernatural powers of Falun Dafa.
The whole process lasted about two hours, but it felt like a dream. That night, a practitioner was worried about me staying home alone, so she accompanied me. We studied the Fa and sent forth righteous thoughts together. The next morning, she left after completing the morning exercises with me. I went to deliver newspapers like normal. I continued doing whatever I should do and nothing was held up.
After delivering the newspapers, I walked toward my house and saw that my daughter-in-law had come to visit me. She had a big scare when she heard the news the night before and felt that the problem was quite serious. She had called our family in China and seemed to have done some funeral preparations. When she saw me, she seemed to be at a loss. How come I was out and about? This was unbelievable! Everyone thought that I had played a prank on them since it was just a scare and I was not in real danger. The incident quickly spread among our friends and relatives in China. I became testimony to Dafa’s miraculous nature again.
Dafa Displays Supernatural Powers
Due to my ill health, I had dropped out of school during secondary school. I had only a primary school education, so I didn't have much knowledge or skill. But I am a beneficiary of Dafa, as well as a testament to and living example of the goodness of Dafa. So as long as there are truth-clarifying projects, I will actively volunteer to participate. The projects that I have participated in have ranged from clarifying the truth directly face-to-face to clarifying the truth through the internet and mobile phone calls. While working with technology, I can basically go through the process quite smoothly without many big problems.
I joined the Dafa practitioners’ marching band when I was over 60. The people around me were quite shocked and found it almost unbelievable. Nine years ago, my family members recorded some videos of the Dafa songs I could play using the clarinet and made an album out of them. They took these videos back to China, and this created quite a commotion among our friends and relatives. Many of them said it was amazing, as it is impossible for a normal person, who is so old and has no knowledge of basic music theory, to be able to grasp the skills of playing the clarinet within such a short time, and can even participate in all sorts of parades without fail. This was something that even few young people could accomplish. Through this, they could see that Falun Dafa is amazing.
Once, during a national day parade, I felt that the bottom of my leg seemed to have been tripped by something. My clarinet was suddenly flung out of my hand and spun quickly toward the gap in our parade formation on my left. However, I marched on like normal. At the time, I only had one thought: Master, please help me! This is my Fa weapon to save sentient beings. The moment I sent out that thought, I stretched out my hand and caught my Fa weapon back. In the blink of an eye, I continued playing my instrument and marched on. The practitioner beside me did not even realize what had happened, but many practitioners behind me saw this miraculous moment: the brilliant moment when my clarinet flew out and flew back again.
A Blissful and Harmonious Big Family
I have a very blissful and harmonious large family. They are all honest and kindhearted people. Most of them have accomplished careers and good reputations. Some of them seem to be in the Tao despite not cultivating.
I am the oldest sibling in my family. I have 7 siblings, 16 aunts and uncles, and many relatives. They all know about the state of my health before and after I started cultivating in Dafa. They watched me more closely after I started cultivating in Dafa.
All of them witnessed the miracles of Dafa through the enormous changes in me after I obtained the Fa. They agree that Dafa's miraculous healing powers got rid of my illnesses so quickly and gave me a carefree lifestyle with a healthy body. They are all very understanding and supportive toward my cultivation in Dafa.
On July 22, 1999, I went to Beijing to appeal for justice for Falun Dafa and was arrested. Under the pressure of that cruel persecution situation, my husband and family risked their lives to help me. They cleverly protected a few large boxes of Dafa books. I am thankful to them for treating Dafa and Dafa practitioners with kindness.
Over these years, my family, relatives, friends, colleagues and classmates have all witnessed the miraculous and supernatural powers of Dafa through the changes in me before and after my cultivation. They have also witnessed Master’s benevolence and greatness. They all the more know that Falun Dafa is good, and they are all very supportive of and caring and helpful toward me. I am happy that among all these people, there are already more than 100 people who have quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations. I am happy that they have chosen a wonderful future for themselves.
