(Minghui.org) I started practicing Falun Dafa more than a decade ago when I was in my 40s. Since then I have walked on a bright path and started a new life.
I had frequently suffered from diarrhea since I was a child, so I was weak, but my overall health wasn’t too bad. It started to get worse during my internship in a hospital when I was working night shifts. It was the height of summer, and I couldn’t sleep or eat well and suffered from diarrhea and nausea. After more than a month on the night shift, I’d lost over 30 pounds and was pale, emaciated, and frail. I fainted several times on the night shift, in the office and in the operating room. I fainted in the shower as well.
After that, I had persistent insomnia, headaches, and diarrhea, so I embarked on a journey of seeking treatment. I tried Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, nutritional supplements, acupressure, and moxibustion for 20 years, but none of my issues were resolved. Due to chronic insomnia, I frequently suffered from headaches, dizziness, and blurred vision. I was usually clear-minded for half a day, but became hazy and sluggish in the afternoon, making each day a struggle. I was only just over 40 when I started having irregular heartbeats and, in severe cases, overall weakness and fatigue.
After I started practicing Dafa, all my ailments disappeared. I am 62 and am in better health than when I was in my 40s. I have not taken any medications for over a decade.
I first heard about Minghui.org from a colleague in 2008. I got around the information censorship and browsed the website that night. I read Dafa books online until the next morning. My life questions were answered. I came to know what the meaning of life was. Since then, doing the exercises and studying the Fa have become my happiest activities.
Shortly after I started practicing Dafa, my son and I took a train to southern China to visit relatives. Many passengers got off the train before midnight, so there were vacant seats, and a young man in his 30s sat next to me. He asked me if I knew the man sleeping on the seat across from me. When I said he was my son, the man was surprised: “You look too young to have a son that old!” I told him that had not been the case several months before, that it was practicing Falun Dafa that had helped restore my health.
His eyes lit up and he said, “My father and I want to know more about Falun Dafa. I was puzzled when the TV and radio attacked Falun Dafa a few years ago. My father is a high school principal and told me to take TV broadcasts with a grain of salt because the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) puts out a lot of propaganda and false information.”
I told him that the CCP propaganda slanders Falun Dafa, and I told him about the spiritual practice. He was pleased to hear it and said he wanted to learn the practice. I gave him a copy Zhuan Falun. He was very happy and put it under his shirt before he left.
I talked about the nature of the CCP to a customer and advised her to quit the Party and its affiliated organizations. I also gave her a Shen Yun DVD. She saw me later and said, “I played the DVD you gave me that night. My mom, grandmother, and I watched it together. My grandmother, who is in her 80s, was very alert and finished watching the whole show, which was nearly three hours long. She told us the next morning that her insomnia of more than 40 years had been cured. Since then she has slept well every night.” The customer asked me why this was. She later brought her mother to me and asked me to help her quit the CCP and its organizations.
I saw a young man sitting in a car by the side of the road and gave him a copy of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. A short time later, he drove up next to me and asked me to get in because he wanted to talk to me. Even though I was a little worried, I got into his car and talked to him about the nature of the CCP and advised him to quit its organizations. He readily agreed and said he wanted to know more. I gave him a QR code card for software to circumvent the CCP’s information censorship. He scanned it and went online right away. He was very happy.
Master told us that people in today’s world have come for the Fa. I know how precious Dafa is. Practitioners spread Dafa and raise awareness of the CCP’s persecution, day in and day out, in all kinds of weather.
