(Minghui.org) I started to practice Falun Dafa in 1997, and I’m now 80 years old. I suffered from many illnesses before I practiced Dafa, and after I began to practice, I became healthy and energetic. When I clarified the truth to people, many of them were surprised to learn my age and said I look like I’m in my 60s. When I told them I’m 80, they could hardly believe it. I simply told them, “I used to have all kinds of health problems, but practicing Falun Dafa restored my health.”
I would like to share some experiences of people around me who also benefited from Dafa.
Younger Brother Recovered from Advanced Cancer After Learning Dafa
My younger brother was diagnosed with nasal cancer in 2003. He was 50 years old. At that time, I was being persecuted in a brainwashing center. When I returned home, my brother was in the hospital undergoing chemotherapy. My younger sister cried and said to me, “He is my only brother. While you were away, I didn’t even have anyone to talk to about this.” I told her, “Dafa can save him. I just don’t know if he will be willing to learn it.”
After my brother finished receiving chemotherapy and returned home, my eldest sister, my third younger sister, and I went to see him. My sisters and brother were all atheists (as I had been before learning Dafa). They were all government employees and Chinese Communist Party (CCP) members, and they believed in the CCP. However, they could not bear to lose their younger brother and had no other options, so they said to him, “Why don’t you learn Falun Dafa from your second sister? She used to have all kinds of illnesses, and now she doesn’t have any.”
My brother was quite reluctant, but he nevertheless learned the exercises from me and read Zhuan Falun. Master purified his body. Before long, his cancer was gone, and he returned to work at the factory. He had previously been manager of the sales department. After he returned to work, the factory manager took care of him and assigned him to manage the paints section in the warehouse.
Relatives of the factory manager often asked him for factory supplies, like paint, bags, and buckets for their personal use. This was actually an opportunity for him to improve his xinxing and learn to evaluate and handle the situation according to the principle of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. My brother did not give away the factory’s supplies for something in return, but he also failed to explain the matter to them with kindness, and conflicts arose between them. Later, my brother stopped doing the exercises and stopped studying the Fa, and his xinxing gradually became no different from that of an ordinary person.
In 2013, I was out of town taking care of my daughter’s children when my brother’s wife called and said, “Your brother is in the hospital again. The hospital says he has late-stage lung cancer. What should we do?” I said, “He previously had nasal cancer. Because he studied the Fa and did the exercises, Master purified his body and his nasal cancer was cured, but he didn’t know to cherish it. I hope he can read the book and study the Fa again.”
After I returned from my daughter’s home, I went to see my brother. The hospital had prescribed four rounds of chemotherapy, but after three rounds, his condition became critical. His platelet count had dropped dramatically, all his hair had fallen out, and he had become extremely thin. This was how my brother looked when I saw him. I said to him, “Master once endured an enormous amount to save your life, but you did not cherish it. You gave up Dafa, wanting only to gain benefits from Dafa. You were unwilling to endure the hardships of cultivation.” To my surprise, he sincerely said to me, “After I go home this time, I will definitely read the book and study the Fa properly. I won’t think of Dafa only when I’m sick, and I won’t study it just to cure my illness.”
My brother said, “While I was in the hospital this time, a patient from another ward came to see me. When he saw that I was carrying a Dafa amulet, he said, ‘I used to practice Falun Dafa, and my illnesses went away. Later, when the evil Party persecuted Falun Dafa, I gave it up. I have a bad temper and get angry easily, and that’s how I ended up with this illness. Only practicing Falun Dafa can change my temper. After I go home this time, I’m going to practice Falun Dafa again.’ Upon hearing this, I told him, ‘I had nasal cancer 10 years ago. I learned Falun Dafa and recovered, but then I stopped practicing.’ We encouraged each other in the hospital, agreeing that after we return home, we must study the Fa and do the exercises well, and truly cherish Dafa.”
After my brother came home and resumed studying the Fa and doing the exercises, his health miraculously recovered again. The doctors who treated him all marveled that my brother was a medical miracle. In fact, such “medical miracles” are common among genuine practitioners. Master also opened his wisdom. Within a few years, my brother learned to write beautiful calligraphy with a Chinese brush and became very good at it. My sister-in-law said, “It is Dafa that extended his life by 20 years.”
My Eldest Sister and My Youngest Brother
My eldest sister is a doctor. She knows that Falun Dafa is good and has studied the Fa. In her 20s, she developed pruritus, a severely itchy skin condition. At its worst, her entire body was covered in an allergic rash, and scratching made her skin raw. Although she was a doctor, she couldn’t find a cure for her own illness. After she studied the Fa, her skin condition disappeared and never returned. However, she did not cherish Dafa and studied the Fa only intermittently.
In 2008, she developed frozen shoulder. The pain was so bad that she cried out in pain. She read Zhuan Falun for a day and a half, and she recovered again. Then she became preoccupied with the trivial matters of daily life and family relationships, and as she became busier and busier, she once again lost interest in studying the Fa.
In 2010, she developed cervical spondylosis. Bone spurs had grown inward and were pressing on her nerves, deforming her spinal canal. This caused numbness in both hands, making it impossible for her to pick up anything. Around that time, a fellow practitioner asked me if his grandson could be assessed by my sister who had been a pediatrician and was quite well known at the local township hospital. The grandsonoften caught colds and the practitioner wanted to take him to my sister’s home for her to look at him.
While my sister examined the child and was preparing the medicine, I noticed that her hands were not functioning properly. The practitioner encouraged her to study the Fa, but she said that she had studied it before and could not persevere. Since her hands were not functioning well, I brought her recordings of Master’s Fa lectures. Through studying the Fa and doing the exercises, her cervical spondylosis improved again. Later, my sister said that she was old and could not persist in cultivation, but that it was enough for her to know that Dafa is good.
My sister has always supported my cultivation. Her husband had more than a dozen small speakers that he no longer needed and wanted to throw away. My sister didn’t let him discard them and saved them for me. I took the memory cards out of the speakers, deleted all the advertisements on them, recorded Master’s Fa lectures on them, and gave them to people with predestined relationships to listen to.
She is now in her 90s and is still in very good health. She says, “Every day after I finish washing up, I stand in front of the mirror in the living room, put my hands together, and recite, ‘Falun Dafa is good; Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’” She is now the longest-living person among both her family and her husband’s family.
My youngest brother worked at the township government and had also read Zhuan Falun in the past. After the CCP began to persecute Dafa, he gave it up. In 2001, he had a stroke, and he passed away two years later. I believe he will have a good future.
My youngest brother’s wife is retired. She knows that Dafa is good and has also been studying the Fa at home. She is now in her 70s, is healthy, and every day she still helps people bag apples and pick cherries. She used to be a difficult person and often had conflicts with her daughter-in-law. After studying the Fa, she followed Master’s teachings and the standards of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance to become a good person. Now she gets along harmoniously with her daughter-in-law.
The Man Fell from a Ladder, Yet Was Unharmed
One day, while I was clarifying the truth to people outside a hospital, I heard someone call out, “Big Sister!” A man ran over and said, “I finally found you! Don’t you remember me? I’m from such-and-such village. More than a year ago, I came to the hospital to get medicine, and I ran into you here. You told me the truth about Falun Dafa, helped me withdraw from the Communist Youth League and Young Pioneers, and gave me a Dafa amulet. You also taught me to often recite, ‘Falun Dafa is good; Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,’ saying that doing so can turn misfortune into good fortune and help one survive a calamity. I truly believed what you said. I have kept the amulet with me and recited these words every day. And last year, something truly miraculous happened, I experienced what you called ‘survive a calamity.’”
He continued, “Last spring, my wife and I went into the mountains to put covers on apples trees [to protect the apples from bugs and insects]. I set up a ladder against the outer embankment of a field and climbed up to bag the apples. The ladder must not have been placed securely because as soon as I climbed up, I felt it tilt to one side. Before I could react, I fell off the ladder and landed directly in the field below. The embankment was more than two people’s height from top to bottom. I was terrified and thought, ‘It’s over, I may not survive this.’ But when I landed, I felt as light as a feather, as if someone had gently supported me and placed me down on the ground. I felt no pain, I quickly got up and moved my arms and legs around. I was completely fine; there wasn’t even a scratch on my skin.”
He continued, “My wife heard the commotion and quickly ran down. When she saw that nothing had happened to me, she said, ‘This is incredible! Which deity protected you?’ That’s when I remembered that I still had the amulet in my pocket. I told my wife, ‘It was the amulet Big Sister gave me that protected me. Falun Dafa protected me.’
“After that, I wanted to find you and thank you properly, but I didn’t know where you live in the city. Every time I came into town, I wished I could run into you. Heaven has answered my wish. I finally met you today! Come on, take me to your home so I know where you live. Next time I come, I’ll visit you and thank you properly.”
I was very happy for him. I said, “You don’t need to thank me. You understood the truth about Dafa and sincerely believed in Dafa, and Master protected you. If you want to express your thanks, thank Master!” He repeatedly said, “Thank you, Master, for saving my life!”
