(Minghui.org) Before I took up Falun Dafa, a traditional Chinese spiritual discipline for mind and body, in 2010, I had suffered from aortic valve stenosis for over 20 years. Also, whenever I ate raw, cold, hard, or stimulating food, my stomach would be painful for days. Not only did my aortic valve stenosis disappear shortly after I began practicing Falun Dafa, but all of my other diseases also disappeared. My colleague said that I looked ten years younger.
I was excited, and told my elder sister about my experience. She was 62 years old back then, and is 15 years older than me. She took care of me since I was little and she loves me like a mother. I told her, “Falun Dafa is really wonderful. Its healing power is amazing. You should learn it too!” However, due to the persecution by the Chinese communist regime, my sister was scared, and said, “Well, I am glad that you regained health. I am happy for you.”
One day she had a heart attack. Her blood pressure and blood sugar remained very high even after she took medicine. I stayed at her home for over ten days taking care of her. Every morning, we did the Falun Dafa exercises together and read Zhuan Falun, the main book of Falun Dafa. She got better soon, and my brother-in-law, who was timid and fearful, also supported her in practicing Falun Dafa. In the following few years, although my sister didn’t practice diligently, she kept on doing the exercises and stopped taking medicines.
I was arrested one day in 2020, and held at the police station for ten hours because I talked to people about Falun Dafa. My sister was terrified. She stopped doing the exercises and did not dare listen to Master’s lectures. Her husband even threw out the Falun Dafa books. After that her health began to deteriorate. Her blood pressure and blood sugar levels increased and her leg and back pain returned. She was always weak. She was back to being a frequent visitor to the hospital. She spent tens of thousands of yuan on health care products every year.
My brother in law also developed health problems, suffering with dizziness and difficulty in moving his hands. I tried to persuade him, “What is wrong with my telling people how wonderful Falun Dafa is? Falun Dafa teaches people to be good. The evil Communist Party persecutes Falun Dafa practitioners, and it will be punished by heaven sooner or later. You shouldn’t listen to their propaganda or throw away the Dafa books.” But he didn’t listen.
The communist regime suddenly lifted the complete lockdown policy in late December last year (2022), and the pandemic spread quickly across the country. In my town, almost every family was infected. All fever-reducing medicines were sold out.
My sister’s entire family was infected and they could do nothing but lay in bed. Even when they were out of food, they were unable to go out. I was the only one not infected.
Every day I cooked at home and then sent food to my sister’s house. She lived on the seventh floor and her building did not have an elevator. My brother-in-law was touched, “You are also sixty years old, and we have to bother you to climb up to the seventh floor every day. It must be difficult for you.” I comforted him, “Don’t worry, I am a Falun Dafa practitioner. I am in good health.”
Not only my elder sister’s family, but also my other siblings’ families were infected with the virus. During those days, I traveled to the homes of my relatives every day, bringing them food and telling them about the auspicious words, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” I let them know that sincerely reciting these words would bring them blessings.
While all my relatives were getting better, my elder sister had a heart attack. Over the phone, I could tell she was very weak. I was worried, and rushed to her home with Master’s audio recordings. When I entered her apartment, I saw a big bag of Chinese herbal medicine. I immediately felt compassion and couldn’t help blaming myself, “My sister gave up such a good practice so easily. I should help her more.”
My sister was very happy to see me. I asked her, “Do you still remember how to do the Falun Dafa meditation?” When she replied yes, I told her, “Let’s do it together now!” After we finished the meditation exercise, I played Master’s lecture for her, “How about you listen to his lectures for a while?” She hesitated and looked at her husband. But I insisted, “Don’t ask for his permission. He will support you if you are getting well.” She agreed.
She called me the next day and said happily, “I am fully recovered!” I couldn’t have been happier for her. Dafa is amazing and I was so thankful that Master didn’t give up on her. A few days later, I went to her home and she looked totally different! At the age of 75, she had a smooth, rosy, and delicate complexion, her spirit was renewed, and her voice was full of energy. I said to her, “Look at you! You have experienced the amazing healing power of Dafa once again! You shouldn’t give up this practice.” She sincerely said, “No, I will not.”
I then talked to my brother-in-law, “Do you still remember that I had many diseases before, and I fully recovered by practicing Falun Dafa. I haven’t taken a pill for many years. During the pandemic, you were all infected but I was fine. Isn’t this proof of the supernatural nature of Dafa? Please don’t throw away Dafa books again, please respect Dafa and Master Li.” He was embarrassed and repeatedly said, “OK, OK!”
