(Minghui.org) Hirai Yoko, a Falun Gong practitioner in Japan, lost her health in her twenties and fell into despair. Yet after practicing Falun Dafa, she miraculously regained her health and became a positive person.
Diseases Eliminated by Dafa
Ms. Hirai became deaf in her twenties, was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis in her thirties, and found herself with a pancreatic tumor in her forties. After undergoing blood tests, ultrasounds, gastroscopies, MRIs, positron emission tomography (PET), and various other exams, her doctor told her, “If this is determined to be a malignant tumor, not only your pancreas but your stomach and spleen must also be removed. This is an extremely complicated operation, and you could even lose your life.” Hearing this, Ms. Hirai cried in despair.
On hearing the news, Ms. Hirai’s mother suggested she try practicing Falun Gong (also known as Falun Dafa). Her mother had been a practitioner for many years and told her, “Thanks to Falun Gong, my rheumatoid arthritis and collagen vascular disease were cured.” There were limits to what Western medicine could achieve in response to her illness, so even if she underwent surgery, Ms. Hirai knew her quality of life would deteriorate. She stopped pursuing Western medical treatment and began practicing Falun Gong with her mother in August 2017.
After learning the exercises from her mother, Ms. Hirai began reading the main Falun Gong book, Zhuan Falun, online with other practitioners each night. She also read articles on the Japanese Minghui website on her mother’s recommendation.
“Since I started practicing, not only has my pancreatic tumor not grown, but my other conditions, such as ulcerative colitis, severe dysmenorrhea, and shoulder pain, have disappeared. Moreover, my mental state has become peaceful.”

Zhuan Falun Is the Key to a New World
“Before practicing, I couldn’t tell right from wrong. Zhuan Falun is a ray of light in the darkness, a precious book that guides and opens a new world to people. Repeated rounds of reading have led me to understand many truths, overturning the lies we’ve learned in society regarding history, science, and human values. Good things and famous people praised by the world are not as perfect as they are portrayed.”
“For example, modern medicine ignores people’s natural healing ability. People visit hospitals to receive injections and medications when they feel unwell. However, I learned through reading Zhuan Falun that the root cause of people’s illness is karma. Health problems can be fully resolved if people are willing to improve their moral values.”
Ms. Hirai experienced this herself recently, when she developed eczema all over her body. Her eyes became so swollen, she could not put on any makeup. At first, she wondered, “Did it arise due to food or environmental factors?”
Her eczema continued to persist for nearly half a year until Ms. Hirai realized that her condition might be caused by herself, “This might be deliberate to eliminate the bad things in my body.” She began practicing the exercises and studying the Fa more diligently, and her symptoms soon disappeared.
Dafa Opens the Mind and Grants Wisdom
As a career professional, Ms. Hirai participates in system development projects, which cover system planning, setup, production, and follow-up to ensure smooth-running operations. Various problems can crop up at each stage, with significant effort needed to coordinate with corporate management, system developers, and users.
In the past, worries over these problems had caused Ms. Hirai to suffer frequent bouts of insomnia. “Since then, Falun Gong has given me wisdom, and these work problems no longer trouble me. After cultivating Dafa, I can come up with the best solution to the problem, and my worries over work have diminished.”
“For example, when the system fails, possible reasons for the failure will immediately come to mind, and I can implement appropriate measures in the shortest amount of time. When I overlook things, those around me will promptly make me aware, so I am able to avoid these shortfalls. In the past, when fellow colleagues said they were taking sick leave, I would become irritated because of the corresponding increase in workload. After practicing Dafa, I find myself willing to cover for others. This spirit of mutual assistance influenced others in my workplace and improved our working atmosphere. I have become a trusted person among my colleagues.”

“Practicing Falun Gong has benefited me greatly. On May 13, World Falun Dafa Day and also the eve of Master’s birthday, I would like to wish Master a happy birthday! I will diligently cultivate to the end and encourage fellow practitioners so that we can progress together!”
