(Minghui.org) Feng is a close friend of mine, and we have worked together for years. She is warm-hearted and assertive; everyone who interacts with her likes her. The first time I clarified the truth about Falun Dafa and the persecution to Feng, she agreed with everything I said and quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations.
During the fall before last, she often took leave from work. I heard that her mother had frequent stomach pain, and Feng was taking her to hospitals for medical examinations. Her mother was finally diagnosed with a pancreatic condition. The doctor told her family it was terminal, but that a surgical procedure would alleviate her pain. Feng and her brother made an appointment for their mother’s surgery to minimize her suffering before death.
After the surgery, their mother was very weak and could only have a liquid diet. Feng discussed the situation with her brother and decided to take extra leave from work to care for their mother. They wanted to celebrate one last New Year together as a family before their mother passed away.
Another Falun Dafa practitioner and I were deeply saddened when we heard about this. We went to visit Feng at home and said, “Falun Dafa is miraculous. Many people have regained their health after believing in Dafa. Please ask your mother to sincerely recite ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,’ and she will receive blessings.”
Feng accepted our advice and her mother sincerely recited the auspicious phrases. A few days later, Feng came back to work. She told us that her mother’s health had improved from reciting the phrases. Her mother could already manage to take care of herself and had urged Feng to return to work.
Although Feng came back to work, she was heavy-hearted and often wept quietly alone. Once, she talked to a colleague about preparing funeral clothes for her mother. The colleague told her that, by tradition, funeral clothes should be prepared during a Chinese leap month. (Editor’s note: This is an extra month added to the traditional Chinese lunar calendar every two to three years).
She checked for when the next one would happen, but it was over six months away in June the following year (2025). According to the doctor’s diagnosis, her mother would not live that long, which left Feng feeling hopeless.
When I learned about her concerns, I gave Feng an audio player with recordings of Master’s lectures and told her to play them for her mother to listen to. The older woman started listening to Master’s lectures that very day.
A few days later, Feng told me that her mother enjoyed listening to the recordings and her sleep had already improved, which gave Feng confidence. Then, a few more days later, I heard that she could cook simple dishes and was making ready-made meals for Feng.
Feng’s whole family felt hopeful again and repeatedly thanked me for sharing the life-saving recordings. I replied, “This is because you all have a predestined relationship with Falun Dafa. You should thank Dafa’s Master.”
They immediately responded, “Yes, yes, thank you, Master! Thank you, Falun Dafa!”
What impressed me most were the various changes the older woman experienced, including her physical condition, her mood, and spiritual outlook.
The fellow practitioner and I went with Feng to visit the older woman and introduce Dafa to her properly. Although her condition had improved, she was still not fully recovered. She had insisted on returning to her own home despite her condition. She sat on the kang (heated brick bed), looking unwell, and her voice sounded weak. Staying awake seemed like a great effort for her, and she had to lean against her prepared bags (for going back to her own home) every time she spoke a few words.
When we talked about Dafa, she said that she could understand some of Master’s Fa teachings, but there were other parts she could not understand. Most of the time, she poured out her heart about the hardships she had been through during her long life.
Her story moved us. She was kind and resilient. I sincerely told her, “Auntie, your lifelong suffering may have been the predestined connection that led to us all meeting—it’s not necessarily a bad thing.”
She had only listened to the Fa for a short while and seemed unclear about what we were saying. She kept recounting the hardships she had lived through, focusing on her health.
The fellow practitioner and I asked her to listen to Master’s Fa lectures more frequently and attentively, with a mind free of expectations. We told her that she would gain a better understanding this way. Feng was also listening as we spoke and encouraged her mother to do so.
While we were chatting, the woman’s grandson came back home. He greeted us and invited us to visit often. The fellow practitioner and I thought that a family who believes in Dafa would surely receive abundant blessings.
On our way home, the practitioner suggested we download podcasts from the Minghui website with cultivation experiences for the woman to listen to. We downloaded some experience sharing and went to visit her that same afternoon. She accepted these podcasts and was grateful for our help.
Sometime later, we visited her again. By then, the changes were very clear. She had gained weight, had a much stronger spiritual outlook, and her voice sounded much louder. When we talked about Falun Dafa, she shared her understanding.
I said I would teach her the exercises during the next visit and would bring her Master’s exercise instruction videos. I told her that practicing the exercises could help her recover faster.
When we visited the next time, she didn’t look sick at all and was working in her vegetable garden. We chatted, and she told us about her recent changes, saying, “If one strives to be an extraordinarily good person, then one will receive blessings.” She expressed her wish to learn the Falun Dafa exercises. She happily told us her neighbors had all noticed her good health and said she didn’t look sick anymore.
“You should start introducing Falun Dafa to other people now,” I replied. “You can tell your fellow villagers about the miraculous power of sincerely reciting ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’”
She looked thoughtful. After teaching her the four sets of standing exercises, we needed to leave. I told her I would teach her the sitting meditation next time. She asked me for a few Dafa amulets for her relatives and friends before we left.
I went to visit her by myself the next time and taught her the sitting meditation. Seeing how earnestly she learned the exercises, I felt a deep sense of responsibility.
Last June (a leap month) we visited her again. My fellow practitioner and I were surprised to see the woman had a radiant complexion and was full of energy and happy smiles. Apart from doing the sitting meditation, she didn’t use the kang at all during our visit. She did all five exercises, and sincerely talked about what she had learned from Master’s Fa teachings. She also said she had asked her sister to start practicing Falun Dafa. She looked like a totally different person from that old, infirm woman we first met!
Since that difficult time, Feng is back to her usual self again. She is warm and understanding, and no longer quietly wiping away tears. She told me over and over again, “Sister, my mother has recovered completely. She stopped calling me at night because of the pain, and now every time she calls, she tells me she feels good and there is no pain at all. I’m very happy! I really want to thank you all! I want to thank Falun Dafa for giving my mother a second life, and for saving our whole family!”
Feng and her mother are pure and kind-hearted, and have sincere faith in Falun Dafa. Dafa manifested miracles for them—a miraculous recovery from a desperate situation! Thank you, Master, for your compassionate salvation!
