(Minghui.org) I would like to share a few stories of people surviving terminal illness, chronic illness and a deadly car accident because they believed in Falun Dafa and recited that Falun Dafa is good and Falun Dafa's principles, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, are good. These stories illustrate the miraculous power of Falun Dafa.
During a recent trip to my hometown, a family member, who is a Dafa practitioner, told me a story about an elderly lady who was diagnosed with breast and stomach cancer about eight years ago. The doctor told her family that she had only about 18 months to live. Yet, she is still alive and doing well. She is nearly 70 years old, yet healthy enough to work.
Eight years ago, her body was swollen. She was peevish and hot-tempered. She could not eat or sleep and was in agony. Her husband and son hid the doctor's diagnosis from her in order not to worry her. Everyone knew about it, but her.
One day, someone let the bad news slip. Her son was furious, but it was too late. Once she knew she had cancer, her temper and her health deteriorated further. Her entire family was turned upside down; the family was on the brink of breaking up.
My family member called the lady after hearing the news. She explained to her what Falun Dafa is about and suggested that the old lady start reciting the words, “Falun Dafa is good.” Feeling desperate, the lady decided to give it a try. She started reciting these words every day and found that she felt better each day.
She was free of cancer after six months.
News travels fast in a small village like this. The villagers were amazed at her astonishing progress, and many inquired about the lady's secret.
I found this story to be truly amazing and inspirational. It is also very representative of the power of Falun Dafa.
My sister-in-law and nephew hit each other's cars in June 2013 on their way to work. My nephew and his passengers only had scratches, but everyone in my sister-in-law's car sustained more serious injuries. A woman appeared to have broken her neck, and a man was thought to have a broken leg.
My sister-in-law needed eight stitches, and her liver and stomach were bleeding. Being in critical condition, she was transferred to a city hospital.
When I visited her, I whispered into her ear: “You will be all right. Just repeat in your heart, 'Falun Dafa is good, and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.' Beg the founder of Falun Dafa for protection.” She acknowledged that she understood.
I had explained to her in detail what Falun Dafa is all about a few years ago. I gave her a Dafa amulet, which she keeps behind the rear-view mirror in her car. It says “Good fortune” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance” on one side and “Recite 'Falun Dafa is good' for blessings and protection” on the other side.
My sister-in-law was transferred out of the intensive care unit three days later. When I visited her again on the fifth day, she said, “I am going to be all right.”
I took the opportunity to explain to other patients in the same ward the facts about Falun Dafa, and my sister-in-law joined the conversations.
When I visited her again on the eighth day, she said, “The doctor told me that I should thank Heaven for my miraculous recovery!”
She added that the other woman in her car had a crack in the neck bone, but her neck was not broken, and the man's leg injury turned out to be an old injury, so his leg was not broken either.
I am convinced that my sister-in-law has been truly blessed for believing in Falun Dafa.
Ms. Xiao Hua is a neighbor of mine and a Falun Dafa practitioner. Her 84-year-old mother, Mrs. Wu, came to visit her from a rural area.
Mrs. Wu was very tanned and skinny. As soon as I entered the door, I heard her violent coughing. Her tanned face turned red. She coughed so hard that she had difficulty breathing. I told her not to talk to avoid any further agitation.
Mrs. Wu had coughed for as long as she could remember, at least several decades. No medical treatment had worked. Her mother married her off at the age of 18 because she did not want her daughter to die unmarried.
Mrs. Wu's cousin was capable of divination. He told her: “You will not die young. You will be saved by Lord Buddha. You have a predestination with Buddhism.”
After giving birth to a boy and two daughters, Mrs. Wu's cough still did not improve. She tried Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, and even witch doctors, but nothing and no one could help.
When no medicine could cure her mother's coughing, Ms. Xiao asked her to recite silently, “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” She also taught Mrs. Wu the five exercises of Falun Dafa and had her listen to Falun Dafa lectures on an MP3 player.
Mrs. Wu believed her daughter and followed her advice. Her coughing gradually subsided. In less than eight weeks, the chronic coughing that had tormented her for her entire life disappeared!
Mrs. Wu now has a fair and healthy complexion, has put on weight, and no longer coughs.
Ms. Xiao's sister was once skeptical of Falun Dafa. Seeing this miraculous experience, however, she wanted to learn the practice.
There is a 70-year-old man in my hometown. His body used to be swollen and his complexion and lips were sickly dark. He could not stop trembling and fidgeted when sitting. He fell constantly when he walked.
One evening, he decided to go for a walk to take his mind off his physical pain. He ended up falling at the roadside.
He was admitted to the hospital four times in 2013 for emphysema. But all the hospitals suggested that he transfer to another hospital because they could not help him.
A Dafa practitioner noticed him while delivering meals to a friend. She suggested that the old man recite, “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
The old man asked: “Are you a Falun Dafa practitioner? I know a Dafa practitioner in my hometown. You guys are very nice people. Do you have any Falun Dafa materials with you? I want to read them.” The practitioner returned that evening and gave the old man some Falun Dafa materials to read.
After he told me the story, I gave him a Falun Dafa amulet and suggested that he follow the other practitioner's advice.
A miracle happened. His swelling began to subside after 10 days and was gone completely after four weeks. He and his wife were both amazed by the power of Falun Dafa.
