(Minghui.org) I had to rush to a hospital because my belly had been swollen for about 20 days at the end of 2025. I looked like a pregnant woman and often felt exhausted. Medical exams found a 4 kg malignant tumor in my left ovary. I was also anemic.

I asked fellow practitioners to help me by sending forth righteous thoughts. The surgery removed the entire tumor. I had to receive 2.25 liters of blood via transfusion. I would have lost my life without Master´s protection.

I would like to reflect upon my attachments and the reasons that I almost lost my life.

Looking within, I found resentment and feelings of injustice toward fellow practitioners who broke their promise to help in a truth clarification project. After self-reflection, I realized that each practitioner has a different mission, and I’m not in a position to judge others. I have let go of this resentment.

I also had attachments to sentiment that I could not control, such as anger and fear. I regret my poor behavior and failure to improve earlier. I now have one more chance. Studying the Fa has helped me see how I can improve.

I also realized that I had a lack of faith in Master and Falun Dafa in the past. I had searched for remedies for menstrual irregularities, and even looked up information about birth control pills using artificial intelligence. These hormone-based medications were probably the direct cause of the tumor. The old forces had taken advantage of this gap and had tried to take my life, but I failed to see through it. After intensive Fa study, I realized I had been looking outward and had gone astray.

I also think that one of the root causes of this tribulation was my attachment to having a family. I had a dream two days after the surgery in which I was reluctant to leave my ex-husband, because I wanted to have children with him, but he never came back, and we eventually separated. In real life, we divorced in 2017. I thought I had let go of the desire to have a family, but the dream showed that I had kept this desire well hidden, and that I had almost paid with my life for the desire.

Master said:

“What is a fundamental attachment, then? Human beings acquire many notions in this world and are, as a consequence, driven by them to pursue what they yearn for. But when a person comes to this world, it is karmic arrangements that determine his course of life and what will be gained and lost in it. How could a person’s notions determine each stage of his life? So those “beautiful dreams and wishes” become pursuits that can never be realized, despite being painful attachments.” (“Towards Consummation,” The Essentials of Diligent Progress II)

Having a family was a fundamental attachment I had not been aware of. I wasn’t aware of it until after having the surgery. Lust was also related to this attachment and had also generated karma. I should have taken the tests in my cultivation seriously.

I was released from the hospital five days after having the surgery. I diligently studied the Fa and started doing the exercises.

I studied at least one lecture of Zhuan Falun every day, as well as Master’s other teachings. I learned how to genuinely obtain the Fa. I became vigilant about attachments or intentions, and tried my best to remove them.

After reading the Fa three times, I had another testing dream on lust and I said in my dream, “I’m a cultivator, I practice Falun Dafa.” I passed the test.

When I first came out of the surgery, I could only do one exercise before I had to rest. After 40 days, I could do all five exercises in two hours without any pause.

I also realized that my gaps that were exploited by the old forces may have been fine in personal cultivation in the past, but now in the Fa rectification period these gaps can be taken advantage of by the old forces to threaten lives of practitioners and interfere with the salvation of sentient beings. I vow to continue helping Master offer salvation to more people during the Fa-rectification period.

I still have so much to improve on. I will persist in doing the three things. It’s a pity that I almost lost my life before I learned to value the opportunity to cultivate in Falun Dafa. I’m deeply humbled by Master’s grace.

Please feel free to point out anything not in conformance with Fa.
