(Minghui.org) When I married my second husband, his misbehaved 8-year-old son joined our household, which turned my life upside down. My husband and I were frequently called down by the school for our son's stealing and fighting. He also stole money from our home on numerous occasions.
In an attempt to end my miserable, grief-stricken life, I tried to commit suicide several times by either taking sleeping pills or lying on a train track. I spent my days in tears. As a result, I came down with a number of illnesses, including hypertension, hyperlipidemia, elevated blood viscosity, heart disease, atypical ductal hyperplasia, migraine headaches, and other ailments.
In August 2003—which was the lowest point in my life—one of my friends re-introduced me to Falun Dafa. This time when I read the book Zhuan Falun, I felt completely different about its contents. I realized that the book was a ladder to Heaven. I decided that I must cultivate in Dafa, no matter what the future held for me.
I decided to read every Dafa book I could get my hands on and completely forgot about my troubles, worries, and numerous illnesses. I was so excited about discovering the true essence of life. I was proud to be a part of the only “pure land” in the world!
One day, my husband received a phone call from a friend who asked how I was doing with regard to my hyperplasia. At that moment, I suddenly realized that although I hadn't taken any medications for four months—since I started to practice Falun Dafa—my breasts were no longer painful! In addition, my hypertension miraculously disappeared, and I felt energetic all day long, even if I went to bed at midnight and got up at 3 or 4 a.m. In the past, if I had stayed up a little late or got a bit anxious, I would experience pain around my heart area, but now I was pain-free.
I did not know exactly when I had become completely free of illnesses, but I excitedly grabbed the phone from my husband and told his friend, “Without taking one pill, all of my diseases disappeared after I started practicing Falun Dafa four months ago!”
I also used Dafa principles to guide and influence our son, and often told him how I benefited from practicing Falun Dafa. As a result, he wound up getting better grades in school, which made my husband and I very happy.
When our son started dating a girl about four years ago, I advised him to be responsible to her and to not live together before marriage. One day he told me, “Mom, don't worry! I could not do that even if I wanted to!” Around that same time, he was diagnosed with chronic prostatitis, and his doctor told us that it was not easy to heal this disease. When we visited the hospital for a second time, we met another patient with the same disease. He told us that his condition only minimally improved after four to five years of treatment. With the assistance from my friend’s brother—who was an agent for a large-scale medical company—we were able to buy a lot of high-quality medicine for our son. But no matter how much we spent, his disease only got progressively worse.
One day, my son came home from work earlier than usual and said to me in tears, “Mom, I might not be able to work anymore! I feel a lot of pain after standing for a long time!” I told him, “I promise that you will greatly benefit from reading all of the Falun Dafa books we have on hand. You know that hospitals can't cure you, so it might be the right time for you to start cultivating.” He accepted my advice and began cultivating earnestly. Twenty days later, he happily exclaimed, “Mom, my disease is completely healed!”
In 2010, he got married, and five months ago his wife gave birth to a healthy baby. In addition, he became a very different young man. In the past, everybody said he had a ferocious look in his eyes. However, today, people praise him for his benevolence and intelligence.
My husband works as a truck driver. Last winter, while changing a flat tire on the side of a freeway, he was thrown over 30 feet by a passing car. He lay there unconscious and the bystanders thought he was either dead or about to die. His co-worker bent over his body and wailed loudly. After a while, my husband regained his consciousness and was surprised to see people hovering over him.
When someone tried to help him up, he could not move his arms or legs. Then he sincerely asked Teacher to for help. Finally, he could take a few steps and his arms were only slightly injured. Later, he told me that he had felt a ball-like object cushioning his fall when he was hit. As a practitioner, I know what happened: It was our great Teacher who had saved him.
In December 2011, my 64-year-old sister fell off a two-foot stool while wiping ashes off her ceiling. As she was falling, she remembered to silently recite, “Falun Dafa is good!” When she hit the ground, she was not hurt at all. She told me, “It seemed as if someone caught me as I was falling and gently placed me on the ground!”
Nothing in the world can repay Teacher for his compassion and saving grace. The only thing I can do is cultivate diligently and help save more sentient beings!
