(Minghui.org) My sister, who is 94 years old, is in good health and is clear minded. Her hearing and eyesight are good, and she enjoys doing needlework. All her friends and neighbors envy her and say she’s lucky, but I know that she’s been blessed by Falun Dafa.
I would like to share some of her amazing experiences.
My wife started practicing Falun Dafa in 1996 and I started in 1997. My wife’s heart disease and various other chronic health problems soon disappeared. My varicose veins and other ailments also disappeared. My health was good and I felt energetic.
My parents moved in with us after we married. Both my parents fell ill and were hospitalized for more than three months. Due to the stress, my wife developed heart disease.
My sister was very happy to hear that my wife and I regained our health after we started practicing Falun Dafa. We told her that Falun Dafa is a cultivation practice and it teaches people to be good.
“I believe you,” she said, “Just look how quickly you two became healthy! Keep practicing, so I won’t have to worry about you.” My sister knows that Dafa is good and she is very respectful of Falun Dafa’s founder, Mr. Li Hongzhi.
After Jiang Zemin, the then head of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) launched the persecution in July 1999, my sister was angry, and said, “Falun Dafa is so good. Why can’t people practice it? Jiang Zemin is terrible!”
She knew the “Self-immolation” at Tiananmen square was a hoax to slander Falun Dafa. She was supportive of our practicing and always reminded us to be careful as she knew how ruthless the CCP could be in persecuting people.
She aged a lot in her 70s, and she often felt tired and her legs cramped. She had to stop and rest when she walked, even when she crossed intersections. When the light turned red she was still in the middle of the road. She was very worried about her failing health.
We told her to recite the nine special words, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” I said if she recited them sincerely, she would be blessed. Some of our relatives didn’t believe us, but my sister said firmly, “I believe you. I will recite them.”
She recited the words for many years, and she experienced some miracles. Her legs stopped cramping. She had more energy and no longer had trouble walking. Not only did she take care of herself, she was also able to help her daughter with household chores.
In Northeast China, people like eating pickled sauerkraut in winter. It’s tiring to make sauerkraut, but my sister was able to make it for her daughter’s family. She also made delicious steamed buns that everyone enjoyed.
All people yearn for good health and longevity in their senior years, and their children also hope their parents remain healthy. However, health and longevity are not decided by people, and are subject to the law of “birth, old age, illness and death.” After she recited the words for years, my sister’s good health at such old age seems to have circumvented that law.
She sleeps soundly and feels energetic during the day. Her complexion is rosy, and her eyesight is good. She thought the cotton wadding in the padded pants her daughter bought her wasn’t evenly distributed, so she took the pants apart, smoothed out the wadding, and sewed it up. If the clothes her grandson bought had some defects, she mended them. Everyone said she was amazing!
She has become the “treasure” of the family, and everyone likes to be close to her. Her two daughters feel very lucky to have such a healthy and capable mother. Her entire family is deeply grateful for the blessings Falun Dafa brought them.
She recently fell twice, but she was not harmed.
In 2003, she moved to a new apartment with her oldest daughter and her family. It was on the ground floor. The apartment has two steps to go down from the bedroom quarters to the living area. My sister was not used to the new place and often missed the steps. One day, when she went to the living area, she forgot about the steps and fell.
Her daughter rushed out of her room and saw her mom lying face down on the floor. She was frightened and went to help her. My sister remained calm and said, “Don’t worry. I can get up myself.” She slowly sat up straight, placed both hands together in front of her chest, and began to say the words.
After a few minutes she got up, and she was fine.
When we went to visit her, my niece told us what happened and how her mother chanted the nine words. Everyone burst out laughing, so did my sister. My niece also told us that many women in their 50s or 60s in their neighborhood fell and broke their legs. “My mom is in her 70s, and she had such a big fall, and yet she had no injury. It’s truly amazing!” she said.
My sister was not used to the steps, and had a few more falls. In 2013, when she was 84, she fell again. In May 2022, she fell down in the living room. She fell five times, but each time she was not injured.
Each time she fell, she would say, “Don’t worry. I’m fine,” and she always insisted on picking herself up. She would sit up, with two hands put together in front of her chest and say the nine words before she stood up. Then she walked around as if nothing happened.
Everyone who knows what happened said it’s incredible. Her older grandson said, “My grandma is not an ordinary person. She has a secret. She is protected by God! My grandma will live a long time!”
What’s even more amazing is that in December 2022, after the lockdown was suddenly lifted, many people tested positive for COVID. Many of our relatives and friends were infected, and some had close contact with my sister.
She and her daughter’s entire family kept reciting the nine words and none of them were infected.
When her second daughter came to visit her, she said, “Wow, you have truly opened my eyes! I will recite the nine words too!” My sister said, “You need to truly believe it and recite it from your heart!”
Inspired by my sister, all of our family members, old and young, believe, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” including those who used to be skeptical about the practice.
My sister is an ordinary woman, but because she has faith in Falun Dafa and sincerely recites the nine special words, she has benefited a lot and was protected each time she was in danger. Master Li shows boundless compassion to all who are kind-hearted and have faith in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.
