(Minghui.org) I began to practice Falun Dafa in 1998 and am now 60 years old. My family and I have truly benefited from Dafa.
I contracted tuberculosis when I was four. I remember my mother carried me on her back to the clinic at her workplace every day to get injections. I constantly felt drained. Because it was a contagious disease, none of the children in the neighborhood would play with me.
I got married in 1990. On the night my daughter was born in 1991, due to my frail condition, I lost consciousness for about half an hour. My mother-in-law was terrified.
In May 1995, I coughed up blood. My husband took me to the hospital, where the doctor immediately referred me to an infectious disease treatment center. The doctor there took one look at me and said, “Your condition is a textbook case of tuberculosis. You need to be admitted immediately!”
The next morning, I felt the urge to vomit, so my husband brought over a basin. And the moment I opened my mouth, blood gushed out, filling the basin with a mixture of old, dark blood and fresh, bright-red blood. My husband was so frightened that his legs were shaking. The doctor gave me an injection to stop the bleeding.
Although the bleeding ceased, my face looked as if it had been painted with a layer of black lacquer. The head nurse noticed this and asked why my face was so dark. I later learned that the medications used to treat tuberculosis were harmful to the liver, and it was damaged.
Because I had this infectious disease, my mother-in-law took care of our child. My husband, himself a carrier of the Hepatitis B virus, was even more fearful of the risk of transmission. At bedtime, he slept in another room.
I was gaunt, had a dark complexion, and my stomach was sunken. Coupled with the trauma I was enduring, I was heartbroken and wept silently every single day.
I returned to my parents’ home, where my mother told me: “I’m not afraid of catching anything. You can just stay with me.” That night, I dreamt that two little demons came to seize me. I screamed with all my might until my mother woke me up. When I opened my eyes, all the bedding was soaked through with sweat.
Gaining a New Lease on Life
On March 16, 1998, a friend took me to a Falun Dafa practice site. More than 20 people were gathered to watch a video of Master Li’s second lecture from Jinan. I joined them. The next morning, I clearly felt a Falun (Law Wheel) rotating in my lower abdomen. I was so excited—what Master said was so true!
When I was doing the exercises, I felt Falun rotating all over my body. During the fifth exercise, I could feel an energy current flowing inside me, and the direction of the energy current kept changing. When doing the second exercise “Falun Standing Stance,” I felt I was holding a big Falun that rotated nine times clockwise and then nine times counter-clockwise. It was truly amazing!
I studied the Fa teachings every day, and Dafa cleansed my soul. I came to understand the reason why people get sick and why human beings came to the earth. Master wants us to be even better than good people.
My body was changing rapidly. I put on some weight, and my complexion improved. I was also full of energy, and climbing stairs no longer tired me. I was finally free from illness!
I followed Dafa’s principles to be an even better person. My health improved so much that I was able to do the laundry, cook, and look after my husband and children. My mood had changed, too, and I smile all the time.
Dafa gave me a new lease on life! Only by cultivating well I can repay Master for his mercy!
My Mother Lives 20 More Years Than Predicted
My mother had been in poor health due to a stroke and high blood pressure. She was always drowsy. She also suffered from Raynaud’s disease: Her circulation was so poor that blood could not reach her fingers, which were so pale and ice-cold that they looked like they belonged to a corpse. When she sought treatment, the only option presented was amputation. My second eldest sister consulted a fortuneteller, who claimed that my mother would only live to the age of 66.
Having seen how much I changed by practicing Dafa, my mother started to practice as well. Since she was illiterate, she listened to the audio recordings of Master’s lectures every day. She was 66 that year.
After that, my mother’s health improved dramatically. She regained her energy and was able to cook for my father. Her circulation improved, and the blood returned to her fingers. The doctors couldn’t cure her Raynaud’s disease, but Dafa did!
My mother used to have a lot of hard lumps under her skin. Soon after she began practicing Dafa, she coughed up these lumps.
My mother told me that she had been passing blood in her urine along with translucent fragments, and urinating was extremely painful. I said, “Mom, don’t be afraid. It’s Master cleansing your body!” She smiled and said she knew. This went on for several months.
My mother later confided that when she did the second exercise, she was floating—her feet weren’t touching the ground. My sister and I noticed my mother’s skin was glowing with white light. Her celestial eye (third eye) was open, and she could see other dimensions. When she saw family members from her heavenly home watching her, she kept saying, “Thank you, Master!”
My mother lived to the age of 86, 20 years past the fortuneteller’s prediction. She passed away peacefully without any suffering. Of all her relatives, my mother was the longest-lived.
Returning From the Brink of Death
My eldest sister, who was in her 70s, was as a physician in a radiology department. Due to radiation exposure, she suffered from severe physical weakness, frequent nosebleeds, and bleeding gums. Her skin was often marked by patches of bruising. Her white blood cell count stood at a mere 2,900/L (compared to the normal range of 4,000–10,000), her blood pressure was critically low, and her platelet count was very low.
Fainting was a regular occurrence. Back then, whenever she fainted, her frightened children rushed to find neighbors or family members to help. Although my sister was a doctor herself, she was unable to cure herself.
In 1998, my sister began to practice Falun Dafa. She read the Dafa books every day and did the exercises. She also adhered to Dafa’s principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance, and her health rapidly improved. She became energized, and her complexion glowed. She could ride her bicycle and climb stairs as if someone was pushing her.
My sister was tough and could endure hardship. She did the sitting meditation up to six hours every day. She said when she was doing so, she felt truly wonderful and her entire body was enveloped in energy. She often remarked, “Without Falun Dafa, I wouldn’t be here today. I’m so grateful to Master!”
Sister Rides a Bicycle Days After Being Carried to a Hospital
My third sister started practicing Falun Dafa in 2010 when she was 49. She suffered from excruciating pain in both legs. She was unable to stand or sleep, and the muscles in her thighs would seize and cramp. By the time she was taken to Xuanwu Hospital in Beijing, she was no longer able to walk. Her brother-in-law’s nephew carried her on his back, and her daughter went with her. The doctors diagnosed her condition as nerve pain and recommended a nerve-blocking injection.
Our eldest sister, who was a doctor, knew that nerve blocking injections would only alleviate the pain and do nothing to treat the underlying condition. So she suggested our sister try traditional Chinese medicine instead.
My eldest sister knew a renowned veteran traditional Chinese medicine doctor who was also a Falun Dafa practitioner. He’d started to practice Dafa because he used to suffer from an illness which he could not cure. The doctor took my sister’s pulse and said, “Your leg pain is caused by extreme cold in your body. I’ll prescribe two doses of medicine for you and see how that helps. If they don’t help, then only Falun Dafa can save you.”
The doctor personally decocted the herbal remedy and brought it to my sister. After she drank it, her legs actually hurt worse; she was simply too frail to withstand such a dosage. My eldest sister then exclaimed, “Only Dafa can save you now!”
At my eldest sister’s home, my third sister started to learn Falun Dafa. She studied the Fa and did the exercises with their family every day. Her condition improved day by day. And on the fourth day, she walked out of the house and was able to ride a bicycle.
A neighbor was aware of my third sister’s condition. Seeing her arrive on someone’s back, only to be riding a bicycle three days later seemed utterly impossible. It was nothing short of a miracle! The neighbor then started to learn Falun Dafa.
After witnessing the changes in my third sister, everyone in our family believed Dafa was miraculous and began to practice as well.
My 91-Year-Old Mother-In-Law
Before the Chinese Communist Party started the persecution of Falun Dafa, my mother-in-law studied the Fa and did the exercises with me. After the persecution began, she was too scared to continue.
Twenty years ago, my mother-in-law had surgery due to difficulty urinating; she was in excruciating pain. The first week after the procedure, her urinary tract was unobstructed, but the following week, the severe pain returned. My sister-in-law then took her to the First Hospital of Harbin City.
Following her discharge, the pattern repeated. The first week was fine, but a week later, the agonizing pain flared up again. My mother-in-law was strong-willed, but this particular pain was unbearable for her. She could not sleep and was afraid of drinking any water. The whole family was worried about her.
“Mom, only Dafa’s Master can save you!” I said. “Please try to recite ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’”
“Okay, I will follow your advice,” she replied and started to repeat, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” A little while later, she told me her painful urination had subsided.”
I was so excited. “Mom, Master is taking care of you!” Before long, my mother-in-law made a complete recovery!
I hand copied Hong Yin for my mother-in-law. She couldn’t read, so I taught her the poems word by word. She studied very hard, reciting the poems every day. She eventually memorized all the poems in the book.
My mother-in-law is now 91 years old. She still remembers poems in Hong Yin. Her celestial eye is also open. She once saw her copy of Hong Yin shimmering with a myriad of colors!
Many who truly practice Dafa have magical stories to tell. I wanted to share my experiences and let predestined people know that Falun Dafa is the righteous Fa, which is truly hard to come by!
