(Minghui.org) After the 2011 Chinese New Year, my wife was overworked and exhausted. She often had vertigo. In the span of a year, she regularly sought medical treatment, as well as seeing a traditional Chinese doctor. However, nothing improved her health.
My wife had refused in the past to take any Chinese medicine, but for the sake of survival, she overdosed and her stomach was perforated. Her life was in danger.
Benefiting from Dafa
Her friends and relatives brought food and soup. Everyone wanted to help. One of her friends practiced Falun Dafa, and decided to bring her Zhuan Falun, the main book of teachings for the practice, and Shen Yun DVDs.
My wife was fascinated by the Shen Yun DVDs, asked to sit up before the middle of the performance and watched the entire show. She cried throughout the entire show and felt warm and comfortable. She also no longer felt dizzy.
She decided to start cultivating Falun Dafa, and did everything a practitioner of the practice was asked to do.
The chronic migraines that she had for 20 years disappeared, as well as her uterine fibroids. She gained weight, her back straightened and she no longer had to take medicine.
After regaining her vitality, she told others that facts about Dafa and the persecution. She did all the house chores and did not feel tired even if she had only slept five hours a night.
The great changes in my wife changed her friends' opinion of Falun Dafa. Many started to cultivate in Dafa and formed a Fa-study group. Everyone benefited greatly and they became good people.
Following in My Wife's Footsteps
Although I had not been a diligent practitioner, I benefited from Dafa. I suffered some ailments that resolved themselves and I no longer took the medicines I had taken for over 10 years.
One of my friends was a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) member for 70 years and teacher in a Party school. Normally, we would talk endlessly, but somehow I could not talk to him about Falun Dafa and ask him to quit the CCP.
He was awarded the “Most Outstanding CCP Member,” and I wondered if I could convince him to quite the CCP?
I realized that I held the attachment to fear after I read Zhuan Falun, and looked inward. However, I still decided to talk to him about the practice. Unexpectedly, when I told him about Dafa and asked him to quit the CCP, he asked me why I had not talked to him about this much earlier. His eyes lit up and he quit the CCP under an assumed name and we could talk again.
My wife and I asked a few practitioners to give this man some Dafa books and materials. They told me that the atmosphere was very harmonious in his home.
However, a practitioner saw a huge Mao portrait, a former CCP head, on his wall and advised him to take it down. He immediately took it down and told his visitors to throw it into the rubbish bin on their way out. He said that he believed in Falun Dafa and became the eldest practitioner in their area.
