(Minghui.org) I truly embarked on the path of cultivating Falun Dafa in late April 2025. I would like to briefly share the miraculous physical transformations and changes in my xinxing (mind nature) that have occurred since I began practicing Dafa.
Master Purified My Body
I used to suffer from severe degenerative cervical spine disease. The doctor who examined me remarked that I resembled a person in their 70s or 80s. Thoracic spine issues meant that I was unable to bend my back, and falling asleep was almost impossible. My home had a squat toilet, so I had to use a portable commode—with great difficulty. Lumbar spine conditions gave me lower back pain for nearly 20 days each month. Relief could only be found by tossing and turning. My thoracic spine condition restricted me to lying rigidly flat on my back, making my existence truly agonizing.
Whenever my gastric ailments flared up, I experienced dizziness, headaches, and total physical exhaustion. In the last three years, I developed temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dislocation. Just in the past year, I was further diagnosed with anxiety, depression, high-risk hypertension, hyperglycemia, and severe migraines. Even in April and May of last year, I was compelled to wear a warm hat day and night. Eventually, I required constant exposure to a heat lamp to alleviate the cold and aching sensation in my head. I became hypersensitive to wind, cold, and heat. I could not even tolerate a breeze stirred up by someone walking by, and, while I could not endure air conditioning, I was equally unable to withstand the heat. Further troubles included receding gums and loose teeth. I was, quite literally, hovering on the brink of death.
At this critical juncture, I began my journey on the path of Dafa cultivation. As soon as I began to practice, I stopped using the heat lamp I had relied on. Within just two or three days, my headaches and the sensation of coldness in my head vanished completely. While doing the second exercise, in another dimension, I saw Master removing several boards that had been nailed to my body from my head down my back. Remarkably, within about a week, my thoracic and lumbar spine issues were fully healed.
At that time, I was still taking blood pressure medication daily. However, after about two weeks, the medication ceased to have any effect. Even taking the medication three times a day, combined with intravenous infusions, failed to bring my blood pressure down. As I prepared to take the pills for the fourth time, a sense of hopelessness washed over me—I felt there was no way out, no path forward. At that moment, I saw Master. He had a kind smile and looked at me with compassion and encouragement. Behind him stood many goddesses, whom I sensed were Dafa disciples, also gazing at me with compassion, yet with a hint of urgency and encouragement, as if to say, “Do not fear. Take just one more step forward, and you will pass this tribulation.”
Then, a layer of radiant, shimmering energy enveloped me. I felt a sense of lightness and comfort unlike anything I had ever known—a beauty beyond words. Then, in an instant, I returned to my normal state. The familiar sensations of heaviness, dizziness, and trembling came flooding back. But now I resolutely refused the intravenous infusion and returned to my room to do the sitting meditation. Regardless of how high my blood pressure might be or how uncomfortable I felt, I simply entrusted everything to Master and let go of all concerns. Within just a few short minutes, my condition stabilized.
From that day forward, I never took another pill. A month later, a check-up confirmed that my blood sugar levels had returned to normal. Over the next two menstrual cycles, I passed a significant number of old blood clots. It was as if the internal blockages within my abdomen had dissolved, and the swelling in my body disappeared. Remarkably, all my other lingering ailments healed as well.
No matter how many times the false appearance of sickness karma manifested, I simply ignored it and did not seek medical help. Later, prompted by other practitioners, I began sending righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil interference. Through this, I successfully broke through and overcame numerous instances of interference and persecution stemming from the false appearances of sickness karma.
Cultivating Away Resentment and Jealousy
I have a younger sister, and for a long time I resented her profoundly because my parents favored her. Two years ago, I picked up on the “online rage literature” trend. Whenever something didn’t go my way, even in small things, I would start screaming, making a scene, and smashing things. I became increasingly consumed by this demonic influence, eventually turning violent and aggressive. Looking back, I am truly alarmed at how I acted. It was as if I had become like a devil. It wasn’t until the situation reached a crisis that, persuaded by my mother, I truly began practicing Dafa. Both my parents are practitioners.
As soon as I began studying the Fa, I felt Master purify my mind. Each day, my mind was focused solely on the Fa, free from the chaotic distractions of everyday thoughts. My heart grew exceptionally pure, and I immediately recognized the resentment I had been harboring. I was filled with gratitude and remorse for my mother, who had cared for me tirelessly and for my father, who had selflessly looked after me. Letting go of my resentment, I stopped saying hurtful things and no longer threw tantrums or made scenes. Those around me remarked that I seemed like a completely different person, and our family experienced a harmony we had never known before.
But my parents gradually began to complain again, accusing me of not being strong enough, of fearing hardship, and of failing to overcome karmic tribulations, thereby affecting the family. I felt deeply hurt, and as these complaints became increasingly frequent, my resentment grew, and I found myself being controlled by this resentment. From then on, whenever I had the energy, which was daily, I devoted it entirely to studying the Fa. Through this, I realized that I had not done enough, that I had not completely eliminated my resentment.
As a Dafa practitioner seeking to transcend the cycle of birth, aging, sickness, and death inherent in ordinary human life, I knew I had to cultivate even better. To that end, I stopped taking my parents’ complaints to heart and remained unmoved. Instead, I did my best to share in the household chores and made it a point to engage with them to discuss issues regarding my xinxing. Before long, they made no further complaints, and we began to share our cultivation insights and experiences more frequently. I felt we were all making significant progress, and our family became harmonious and joyful.
When I reached the point where I remained unmoved during conflicts and was able to discuss with my parents specific attachments we each needed to recognize and cultivate away, I felt as though a layer of murky, dark-grey substance had been stripped away from my body. I felt much lighter physically, and my overall state of being improved greatly.
During a group Fa study session after that, everyone was sharing their insights when an older practitioner remarked that my cross-legged meditation posture was quite good. My mother immediately chimed in, saying that her younger daughter did it even better. Since my younger sister does not practice Dafa, the others didn’t really know how to respond, and I remained silent as well. I simply listened while my mother continued praising my sister. I felt a sense of injustice deep down, though I didn’t let it show. The very next day, another practitioner commented on my reading the Fa, “This young lady reads so well. Her pronunciation is crystal clear.”
My mother interjected again, “My younger daughter reads even better. She is very obedient. Sometimes when I asked her to join us for Fa study, she did, and she read even better than her sister.” I instantly realized that this was a test, a manifestation of the attachment of jealousy. Yet, deep down, I still felt that my mother’s remarks were completely irrelevant. After all, no one had even mentioned my sister!
Over the next few days, whenever my mother spoke, it was to praise my sister. The moment she started, I could anticipate the gist of what she was about to say. I remained unmoved, knowing that this was interference, demonic elements, specifically designed to provoke me, and that it was, in essence, a test. On another occasion when my mother began saying the same old thing, I found I was amused: “It’s been days now. It hasn’t affeted me in the slightest, yet she’s still at it?” After that, my mother never again brought up my younger sister to compare us.
While organizing and writing this article, I have come to clearly recognize my own quick temper, competitive mentality, resentments, desire to show off, wanting revenge, ego, and other attachments. Behind this list of demonic factors lie the selfish and self-serving elements characteristic of the old cosmos. These elements are hidden much more deeply. They do not manifest solely in tangible conflicts or material disputes, situations where one might easily spot selfishness or the instinct to protect one’s own interests, but are, more often than not, deeply embedded within one’s emotions and the very depths of one’s thinking.
These are some recent insights I have gained through my cultivation. I respectfully report them to our compassionate and esteemed Master and share them with other practitioners for mutual encouragement. Please point out anything not in line with the Fa.
