(Minghui.org) The occurrence of a recent, large-scale epidemic in our city caused mass infections in many households. Patients suffered symptoms of fever, cough, sore throat, severe breathing difficulties, and even loss of life. Patients had to wait in line for hospital admission, with some failing to obtain a bed at all.
My wife was one of those who tested positive for infection. Having suffered brain atrophy for many years, she relied on us completely for her basic care. Just before Chinese New Year, my wife came down with a fever of 38-39 degrees Celsius (100.4°-102.2°F). Her throat was clogged with phlegm, and she became weak. I tried to get her admitted to the hospital that same evening, but the initial three large hospitals I went to were at full capacity. I later managed to obtain a queue number at the emergency department of a city hospital. I spent the night waiting in the emergency department’s corridor, yet by 4 a.m. I was still waiting my turn. When I spotted a doctor walking in the corridor, I grabbed him and asked, “Can you take a look at my wife?” The doctor briefly checked her, and told me, “Her condition is serious, she has to be intubated.” That meant she needed to be intubated with a breathing tube.
At 5 a.m. the respiratory department finally assigned my wife a bed. The doctor requested a CT scan be performed, and my son and I rushed to make the arrangements. After examining the CT scan results, the doctor determined that my wife’s condition was very serious. It would be hard for a bedridden person of her age to overcome this hurdle. Healthcare staff instantly hooked up my wife to a patient monitor and ventilator machine. At that point, my wife had an elevated heart rate of 135, blood oxygen concentration of 70-80%, and low blood pressure.
I thought, “I am a cultivator and Master Li will take care of us.” I maintained a calm composure and sincerely recited the phrase, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” before my wife. As I did so, her blood oxygen concentration increased to 87-90%, then 92-96% on the second day, then 96-100% on the third day. Her heart rate also stabilized at 70-80. By the fourth day, hospital staff unhooked the ventilator as her blood pressure had returned to normal and my she had recovered her stamina. However, because some phlegm remained in her throat, the doctor refused to remove the breathing tube.
When I requested that my wife’s breathing tube be removed, her doctor advised against it as the remaining phlegm could still block her airway. Because I insisted, the doctor made me sign a declaration of indemnity before he removed the tube from her throat. My wife’s condition remained stable, and she was discharged from the hospital the next day. I thank compassionate Master for saving my wife’s life.
Sharing the ward with my wife was an 82-year-old woman, who was assigned to the first bed. After testing positive for infection, she was admitted to the hospital that same day. Besides suffering from a fever and having difficulty breathing, the woman’s CT scans showed large white patches on her lungs. With blood oxygen levels at 86-88%, her condition was serious, and she remained hooked up to a ventilator and patient monitor.
I was determined to clarify the truth to her two daughters, who were caring for her. I felt that if they were willing to accept the truth and quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), they would be able to save their mother’s life. That afternoon as we were eating lunch, I said to the two women, “Reciting “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” can improve your mother’s condition. This phrase encompasses the law of the universe, can mobilize the universe’s boundless positive energy to purify a person’s body and their surroundings, and eliminate the virus. If you recite it sincerely, your mother’s illness will improve.” The sisters agreed to try.
I also asked if they were members of the CCP, Communist Youth League, or Young Pioneers. The eldest daughter, Xiaoyun, told me she had joined the Young Pioneers. Her sister Aiyun, was both a Young Pioneers and Youth League member. Xiaoyun’s daughter happened to drop by to visit her hospitalized grandmother as we were chatting. I asked her as well, and she said she was a member of the Young Pioneers. All three agreed to withdraw from the CCP. Xiaoyun’s daughter further told me, “I know Falun Dafa is good. I have a relative who practices it.” Soon after, the elderly woman’s blood oxygen concentration rose to 96% and she stopped gasping for breath. Doctors removed her from the ventilator and placed her under observation over the next two days. On the third day, on seeing that her blood oxygen concentration, heart rate, and blood pressure were all back to normal, doctors discharged the woman from the hospital.
After the elderly woman was discharged, a 68-year-old patient suffering from severe asthma was admitted to the ward’s first bed. Doctors instantly put her on a ventilator and attached a patient monitor. Her blood oxygen concentration was at a low 70-80%. Despite receiving additional treatment to remove her phlegm, her blood oxygen levels refused to rise.
This elderly lady was accompanied by her two sons. I became determined to clarify the truth to them after seeing her suffering. I led her eldest son to a corner and clarified the truth to him, asking him to sincerely recite the phrase, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” in order to help his mother. However, her eldest son only stared at me in silent disbelief.
The doctor instructed the patient’s eldest son to acquire six large oxygen tanks. All six tanks were used up overnight, yet the elderly lady’s blood oxygen levels refused to rise. That morning, the family acquired another six tanks of oxygen. Yet despite receiving supplemental oxygen, her blood oxygen levels started to fall. By 10 a.m., her oxygen level had dropped to 40% and her heart stopped beating. The unfortunate 68-year-old patient lost her life.
The third bed in the ward was occupied by a male patient in his fifties. Admitted to the hospital one day after my wife, he suffered from a high fever, asthma, and thick phlegm. With a blood oxygen concentration at 80-90%, his condition was not good. Despite my repeated advice to the patient and his wife, to sincerely recite the phrase, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” to overcome this hurdle, the couple refused. “We don’t believe this.” I had no choice but to give up.
The original occupant in the first bed and my wife were discharged soon after admittance because they sincerely recited “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” In contrast, the patient in the third bed refused and remained in his original state without any improvement.
While clarifying the truth to a hospital cleaning worker, I asked if she had ever joined the CCP organizations. She replied, “I have never joined any of the CCP organizations in my lifetime.” I told her it was a good thing she had not joined any, and to recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” in order to remain safe. After she agreed, I asked, “Can I give you a protective Dafa keepsake? She asked in turn, “If you give it to me, what will you use?” After I reassured her that I had more, she happily accepted the keepsake from me saying, “To receive blessings during this epidemic, what a wonderful gift!”
The patient monitors used in hospitals can measure a person’s physiological health. Sincerely reciting “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” provides positive energy which can strengthen the patient. Patients who sincerely recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” have quit the CCP, and who believe in the goodness of Dafa, see rapid improvement and recovery from their conditions. Those who do not believe in Dafa conversely experience little to no change, or even lose their lives.
From my experience, the outcome plays out according to the principles described by Master Li.
“When someone quits the wicked CCP, he is no longer under its control. And once he is not controlled by it, he immediately undergoes a change. And what kind of change is it? His body is cleansed of the poisonous elements and factors of the wicked CCP, and he looks differently at matters of Falun Gong and the persecution that it has been subjected to. This comes about as a result [of his own act of breaking from the Party], so he will enter the future. However, if he says, “I oppose the wicked CCP, but I don’t approve of Falun Gong either,” that amounts to him not yet taking his stance, since there is no third choice.” (“Fa Teaching at the Minghui 10thAnniversary Conference,” Collected Teachings Given Around the World)
As long as practitioners clarify the truth well, sentient beings will be saved.
