(Minghui.org) Both my husband and I are in our 60s, and we have practiced Falun Dafa for more than 20 years. We have made it to today under Master’s protection. In order to validate how extraordinary and amazing Falun Dafa is, I’d like to tell you how my husband broke through the illusion of being ill.
The first time was in 2015. My mother was very ill, so my husband and I went to her home to look after her. One day, my husband suddenly fell. Half of his body felt numb ,as well as his legs, feet, arms and head. I told him, “You are fine. It’s an illusion and you are eliminating karma.”
Master said,
“Your body might suddenly feel unwell, since that’s one of many ways that karma can be paid off. And at a certain point in time you might be made to doubt whether the teachings are true” (The Sixth Talk, Zhuan Falun)
I said, “Remember that we don’t take it to heart. With Master here, with Dafa here, we should just study the Fa more, do the exercises more, and send forth righteous thoughts. There are no obstacles we can’t overcome.”
My oldest daughter called me. When she heard what had happened, she said she would come and take her dad to the hospital. I said, “Your dad and I practice Falun Dafa. We leave everything to Master. Dafa is extraordinary. We feel this happened to help him eliminate his karma. As long as we study the Fa and do the exercises well and improve our xinxing, he will be fine. Please be assured.”
But my daughter still wanted to take him to the hospital. I knew that from an ordinary person’s perspective, this was her filial piety. So I comforted her by saying, “If we listen to Master, study the Fa more, do the exercises more, and cultivate diligently, everything will be back to normal.” My daughter said, “Are you sure?” I replied, “Yes, 100%. You just wait for our good news.”
Soon, under Master’s empowerment, my husband was back to normal. I told my daughter, “Your dad recovered. You don’t have to worry about him. Isn’t Dafa miraculous?” She didn’t say anything but quietly acknowledged it.
The Second Test
The next incident happened one morning in April 2021. While my husband was in the washroom, he suddenly collapsed. I was in the kitchen cooking when I heard a “boom” followed by his shouting, “Come quickly! I fell and I can’t get up!” I hurried over to help him. After five minutes I managed to help him stand up. Half of his body, his foot and arm were out of commission. Since he couldn’t walk, I had to help him get to the bed.
He wasn’t upset or scared, so I wasn’t moved either. My only thought was that this was a test. My husband said, “Can you please not go out to clarify the facts today? Can you stay home and look after me?” I said, “Sure, I can.” So we began to study the Fa, send forth righteous thoughts and do the exercises.
He managed to do the second set of exercises for an hour. When he was about to do the sitting meditation, it took him 10 minutes before he could pull his legs up into the full lotus position (both legs crossed). But he managed to meditate for an hour.
The next day after we finished breakfast, he said, “We have to go out to save people.” I said, “Yes, let’s go!” Half of his body was still “paralyzed” and he couldn’t lift up his foot to walk, but only moved by dragging it.
I helped him put on his clothes and get to the door. He bowed to Master’s portrait first before we headed out. While holding the handrail, he used one hand to lift and drag his leg and slowly moved down the stairs.
We gradually got down to the main floor from the fifth floor where we lived. I thought, “What are we going to do when there is no handrail to hold on to? Unexpectedly, my husband began to walk by himself. After a dozen steps, he could take a big step. When he walked a few more steps, everything was back to normal.
When my husband walked down the stairs, he dragged his leg. When he needed to walk normally, he was fine. It was just like Master said,
“When disciples have ample righteous thoughtsMaster has the power to turn back the tide”(“The Master-Disciple Bond,” Hong Yin II, Translation Version A)
We took the bus to go out to talk to people, and the day passed smoothly and quickly. Under Master’s empowerment, we helped many people quit the CCP.
The Third Test
The third incident happened about twelve days later. Around 7:30 a.m. my husband collapsed in the washroom again. It was the same as last time—half of his body seemed “paralyzed.” I thought, “Why did he collapse again before going to work?” So I asked him, “Should you not go to work?” He replied, “Master enlightened me. This keeps happening because I need to study the Fa more, do the exercises more, send forth righteous thoughts more, and let go of my self-interest.” I said, “Then stay home today. Just study the Fa, do the exercises, and send righteous thoughts.”
On the days he had to go to work, my husband was too lazy to get up early to do the exercises and send forth righteous thoughts in the morning. Seeing he was not diligent, Master enlightened him. The next morning after we finished breakfast, without him saying anything, I said to him, “Let’s go out to talk to people.” He said, “I’m not sure if I can go with you. What if I can’t get on the bus?” But still, he followed me out.
Ms. Lin, a practitioner from my hometown, came to our home. The two of us helped him walk. When we reached the ground floor, my husband lost his righteous thoughts and changed his mind. I said, “Why don’t you head back then?” So we left, and he went back upstairs by himself.
When we returned home, my husband told us what had happened. When he was entering the door to our apartment, he stumbled, fell, and hit his head. I said, “We should enlighten on this. I was a bit impatient when I asked you to go out.” He said, “I also lacked righteous thoughts today.”
The third day morning, my husband said, “Let’s go out and talk to people.” I said, “Are you okay?” He said, “Let’s just go.” So I helped him to get to the hallway, and then he slowly walked step by step. While he walked, everything returned to normal.
Ms. Lin said, “It’s amazing! He got better so quickly!” Then Ms. Lin and I went to look for another practitioner without my husband. When we came back, he had taken the bus and arrived at the destination by himself.
Under Master’s empowerment, my husband made a breakthrough in all three tests of eliminating karma. Now he is fine and goes out to clarify the facts to people every day. As long as a practitioner has complete faith in Master and Dafa, there are no trials we can’t pass.
When our three children came to visit us, I told them what happened. I said, “If we did not we practice Falun Dafa, we’d be in big trouble. Not only would your dad have to stop working, we’d have to spend a great deal on medical expenses. Falun Dafa is truly amazing!” Through these incidents, our children witnessed how extraordinary and miraculous Falun Dafa is.
