(Minghui.org) I want to share my experiences and tell you how wonderful Falun Dafa is.
I had all sorts of ailments by the time I was just in my 20s. I had bronchitis that got worse in the winter. I had a severe stomach problem and could not handle cold or hard food. I also had neck and back pain. When I started to practice Falun Dafa in 1996, I lived by Dafa's principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, studied the teachings, and did the exercises every day. Gradually, all my ailments disappeared! I enjoyed what it felt like to be illness-free!
My husband and mother-in-law also practice Falun Dafa. Master [Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Dafa] has protected and guided us over the last 20 years, and we are grateful for Falun Dafa and grateful for Master!
My mother-in-law is 87 years old. During the last New Year holidays, she became confused and was in and out of consciousness. Her four other children all came to take care of her. They discussed her funeral arrangements. My husband said, “Hold on, she is a Falun Dafa practitioner, we want to help her.”
I collected myself and began sending forth righteous thoughts with him. We realized that she was being persecuted by the old forces, and we needed to help her to negate it. I noticed that her skin was smooth and her face appeared youthful. I refused to use human thoughts to review her condition—I wanted to rectify every one of my thoughts.
Mother-in-law was mumbling, “I need water, I'm thirsty. I will leave soon through the window.” I told her, “You are not going anywhere. We will cultivate together and return to our heavenly home someday together.” I asked her if she still remembered to send forth righteous thoughts. She did! She agreed to do so. She said that she only wanted to return with Master.
My mother-in-law improved day by day and completely recovered in five days. Our family members and relatives witnessed her recovery and were in awe at the power of Dafa.
On September 22, 2001, my husband and I went to a village to make a house call. On our way home, two thugs with knives robbed us. It was around 7 p.m. and we were in a cornfield. I was stabbed twice, once in my left thigh and once in my left arm. My husband was stabbed three times, once on the left side of his chest and twice on his legs. We were covered in blood. The thugs took our motorcycle and drove away.
We were in the middle of nowhere. I called out to Master to save us. A tractor appeared and took us to a clinic in the village. The on-call physician was shocked to see the state we were in and called an ambulance. I felt faint. I knew I'd lost a lot of blood and asked Master to reinforce me. When I looked again at my injury, the bleeding had stopped.
When we arrived at the hospital, it was close to 9 p.m. They sewed us up and wanted to give us blood transfusions, which we declined. We recovered quickly and were released the next day.
When the villagers learned what had happened to us, they could not believe that we had been discharged so quickly despite such severe injuries! We told them that our Master protected us. We are deeply grateful for Master's saving grace!
With the guidance of Falun Dafa, we are able to be considerate of others and are not lured by the temptations of the world.
I often went to a Chinese herbal medicine store to pick up herbs for prescriptions. The manager had already learned the truth about Falun Dafa. One day I picked up close to ten different kinds of herbs. But since I only needed a small amount of each, the manager did not want to charge me. I told her that wouldn't be right. I calculated the amount and paid her. After I got home, I double checked and discovered out that I'd shortchanged her 54 yuan. When I returned to the store to pay the difference, she was moved. She thanked me for telling her about Dafa and giving her a Falun Dafa keepsake. She said that her business was doing very well and wanted to thank me for her success. I told her that her believing in Falun Dafa had brought her blessings.
My mother-in-law has two sons and three daughters, and my husband is the youngest. She has lived with us for the last 20 years. We take care of all her expenses and give her the best care. All the villagers are impressed with us.
I get along well with all my in-laws. I'm never concerned about petty gains and benefits, and I focus on taking care of family members. We count our blessing in Dafa and are forever grateful for Master!
