(Minghui.org) My mother started practicing Falun Dafa when I was 9 years old. She has continued practicing for more than 20 years. Under her influence, I did the exercises and studied the Fa with her in my teens. While doing the exercises with my mother one morning, I was beaten by my father because he had been deeply poisoned by the Chinese Communist Party. I was scared and stopped practicing from then on. But the predestination with Dafa had been rooted in my heart.
Suffering from Diseases
As I grew older, I got married and had two children. I worked day and night to make a better life for my family. Slowly, I became successful in my career, but got lost in the mundane world. I pursued fame, wealth, and lust, and hobnobbed with friends whenever I had time. My health went downhill drastically. Over the years, my mother has encouraged me to practice Falun Dafa, but I used all kinds of excuses to avoid it.
I did not have a good appetite. I suffered terrible pain and retching twice a day when I brushed my teeth. I felt nauseous when I ate something that was not to my taste, and thus avoided greasy food, fried food, or pickles that made my stomach uncomfortable. I also avoided foods that were not good for the liver, since I was diagnosed with hepatitis B in my middle school year. My face was dark and lackluster.
One day, I went to the hospital with my friend to have a check-up and came home with medicines prescribed by the doctor. But I stopped taking them on the tenth day because they made me feel anxious. At that point, I felt so uncomfortable that I wouldn’t have hesitated to spend hundreds of thousands of yuan to become illness-free.
I went on my own to see a doctor at the most renowned liver disease hospital in Tianjin. I was hospitalized for three days and underwent various examinations. I suffered a lot of pain after a liver puncture biopsy procedure. The doctor said that I had to be on medication for life and get an examination every three months. Thus, I took the medicines every day and was examined every three months, which was not only costly, but also painful.
One year later, I felt pain in the area of my liver. I had run out of the medicine around that time also. My mother happened to be at my house that day. I told her that I had to leave for Tianjin to get the medicine.
My mother said, “You have taken the medicine every day and still feel uncomfortable. Your disease won’t be cured no matter how much money you spend. Why don’t you study the Fa and practice the exercises? Dafa is miraculous, and you are here for the Fa.”
Despite doing very well in my business, I was not happy and always had a feeling of emptiness from time to time. I wanted to know the meaning of life and why people have come to this world. I seriously thought of my mother’s words. I knew that I had benefited a lot from Dafa, and the compassionate Master has always protected me.
Cultivating Dafa and Recovering from Persistent Illness
One day I was speeding while driving and collided with another car. People who saw the accident were shocked that both drivers were uninjured. I know that Master protected me.
After the accident, I decided to start practicing Falun Dafa with my mother. On the seventh day, the painful retching that had tortured me since I was a child was gone. I did not expect it to disappear in just a few days. I experienced first hand the miraculous power of Dafa. I am grateful for Master’s protection.
It has been one year since I became a Dafa practitioner. On the day that I decided to stop taking any medicine, I felt so relaxed, physically and mentally, as if a layer of haze over my head was suddenly removed. I told my mother and two aunts who are also practitioners about my changes, and they were happy for me.
It was my greatest happiness to become a practitioner. I became a new person after beginning cultivation. I required myself to follow the principles of Dafa to improve my xinxing. I no longer argued with my wife and learned to tolerate her on issues that we did not agree on.
The biggest change was my health. I had prostatitis and always took a long time to urinate. I had seen the doctor for treatment, but to no avail. The disease disappeared after practicing cultivation. I also could now eat every kind of food without a concern of liver effects. All my health problems were gone. My face turned ruddy and I was truly in a state of being illness-free and could walk lightly. This is something I could never even think about before.
I started to understand why my mother and aunts have never given up cultivation even though they had been brutally persecuted by the communist regime. No torture or incarceration has weakened their will to practice Dafa.
Since practicing Falun Dafa, I have been more honest and considerate with my customers. Many customers were willing to work with me and introduced me to more people. My business is thus getting more and more prosperous now.
One day, my employee told me that his wife was seriously injured after falling off her bike. She had difficulty talking and kept crying. I comforted him by letting him know that his wife would be fine if she sincerely recited “Falun Dafa is good” silently. He couldn’t wait to tell his wife the good news.
Two days later, this employee said that his wife had become stronger and more energetic. This couple was very happy. I had told him the facts about Falun Dafa before and he understood them to be true. I also helped the couple quit the Young Pioneers. I was happy for them and thanked Master for his help.
I am so fortunate to be able to embark on this path of cultivation and return to my original true self. Only by doing the three things well and practicing Falun Dafa diligently can I repay Master for his compassionate salvation.
