(Minghui.org) I am a retired teacher. In 2015, I was diagnosed with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer. A colleague mentioned that Falun Dafa could help resolve illnesses and gave me a copy of Zhuan Falun. I didn’t believe her, but I accepted the book.
I didn’t take it to heart, so I just read the book on and off. My colleague said that this book was very precious and that I should return it if I didn’t want to practice. So I decided to read Zhuan Falun one more time, and I finally understood why this is a precious book!
I then decided to practice Falun Dafa. Practitioners taught me the exercises and read the teachings with me. However, I was very addicted to poker, which interfered with my cultivation. I was “critically ill” several times, but Master Li didn’t give up on me and saved me from the brink of death every time.
It Was As If I’d Never Been Never Sick!
My health quickly improved and many painful symptoms disappeared after I began to read the Fa and do the exercises. I was very happy. I joined a Fa-study group and went out to clarify the truth with other practitioners. But when I met an old poker friend, my gambling addiction resurfaced. I thought cultivation was too hard and boring, so I decided to go back to playing cards.
Fellow practitioners warned me that my sickness karma would return if I stopped practicing. I didn’t listen and even quarreled with them. I still read Zhuan Falun sometimes, but I didn’t understand the deeper Fa principles. I was just afraid that my cancer would recur if I didn’t study the Fa.
Master said,
“The issue of cultivation is not child’s play, and neither is it a technique of everyday people—it is a very serious matter.” (Lecture Two, Zhuan Falun)
I didn’t follow Master’s requirements, and my diseases recurred at the end of 2020. I couldn’t eat or sleep due to stomach pain. Painkillers did not help. I felt that I might die. The doctor told my husband how dire my situation was and advised my family to prepare for my funeral.
As I was dying, I remembered Falun Dafa and asked my husband to take me home. Then I did the sitting meditation. After meditating for half an hour, I started to feel chilly. I understood that Master was adjusting my body. After one hour of the sitting meditation, I felt relaxed. My stomach pain lessened, and I could sleep and eat. The next morning, I got up at 3:30 a.m. and did all five exercises. After sending righteous thoughts, I felt so relaxed! It was as if I’d never been sick!
I studied the Fa and did the exercises every day and kept getting better. I soon returned to normal. I felt very energized. I know that compassionate Master had saved me again.
Repeating My Mistakes
As soon as I recovered, however, my poker addiction resurfaced. This time, I played poker even more wildly. I played cards day and night without restraint. I totally forgot about cultivation. This resulted in complications of various health problems, including septic arthritis of the knee. I was in critical condition again. I spent days in the intensive care unit and had three operations on my leg. After being hospitalized for more than two months, I was still in pain and asked to be discharged.
I thought my life might come to an end and I should make some arrangements for my family. I asked my husband to invite Liu, who introduced Dafa to me. I told her that I didn’t practice diligently and felt bad that I’d let Master down. I wanted to apologize to my fellow practitioners who’d tried so hard to help me. I had many regrets. Liu asked me not to give up, to abandon my addiction and to resume practicing.
I started to cultivate Falun Dafa again and have been getting better by the day. Master didn’t give up on me! I have repented countless times to Master and promised to practice diligently from now on. I now read the Fa and do the exercises every day. I also read the sharing articles in Minghui Weekly and do my best to do the three things. Only Master can save me, and I will diligently cultivate myself to repay his blessings.
My husband witnessed the miracles that Dafa manifested in me. He then decided to begin practicing, even though he never believed in the divine. My children also believe in Dafa and have quit the Chinese Communist Party and its affiliated organizations. My whole family has benefited from Dafa, and we’re all extremely grateful to Master!
