(Minghui.org) Sickness karma is a tribulation that has to be dealt with by all practitioners at one time or another. At such time a practitioner has to believe strongly in Master and the Fa.
Whole Body Pain Immediately Disappeared
This sickness karma happened a long time ago. I was just a new Falun Dafa practitioner. One night I returned home from group Fa study – it was around 9 p.m. While lying in bed and about to fall asleep, I began to feel pain inside my whole body. I felt pain in one organ after another, including the thyroid, heart, gallbladder, pancreas tumor treatment area, and appendix. Then all my muscles began to hurt. The intense pain made me scream loudly. My husband, who doesn’t practice Falun Dafa, was very worried about me. He insisted on taking me to the hospital. I replied that I was fine and there was no need for me to see a doctor. I made up my mind that no matter how much pain I felt, I would not go to the hospital.
I previously suffered from malignant tumors on my pancreas that disappeared after I began practicing Falun Dafa. Another practitioner in my city recovered from rectal cancer. Both of our miraculous recoveries were widely talked about – so many people in the city knew us. I shared my experiences with an audience of 800 people. Thus, I was concerned that I might hurt Dafa’s reputation if I went to a hospital. Furthermore, I knew that the pains were not caused by diseases, rather, I was undergoing a process of eliminating karma. Although the pain was hard to bear, I clenched my teeth and just endured it.
While coping with the intense pain, I tried to sincerely recite Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance is good.” I remembered something that Master Li said:
“In cultivation one needs to eliminate karma, and that is painful. How can one increase gong comfortably?” (Lecture Six, Zhuan Falun)
The intensity of the pain abated for a while, then increased again, and this cycle went on all night. I knew that the pain was happening because Master Li was helping me get rid of my karma.
The pain persisted all night. My husband came and told me that it was almost dawn, and he wanted to take me to the hospital. I replied, “It’s all right. Master is helping me eliminate karma.” As soon as I said that, I felt something pushing out of my body. All of a sudden, the pain stopped and I felt very relaxed and comfortable. I walked to Master’s portrait effortlessly and knelt down showing my sincere appreciation: “Master, thank you so much for the troubles that help me.”
After Recognizing the Problem, I Immediately Got Better
I experienced a very difficult time both before and after my husband died. I studied very little Fa, and even when I did, I could not study the Fa well, nor could I calm down to practice the exercises. I let my emotions get to me and cried when I saw pictures of my husband or his belongings. My daughter brought me to her house to live with her for a change of scenery. While staying with my daughter and her husband, I lost my regular environment of studying the Fa. I did not do the three things a Dafa practitioner should do: study the Fa, send righteous thoughts, and clarify the facts about Falun Dafa to ordinary people.
One night when I went to the bathroom, I had a hard time standing. My daughter noticed something was wrong and quickly measured my blood pressure. It was at 248 mm Hg (normal is 120). She called her husband and asked him to take me to the hospital. I knew that my condition was not an illness but a result of my poor cultivation, so I did not want to go. My son-in-law tried to convince me that my blood pressure was very high, and so it was better to treat me at the larger hospital near their place. He was worried that the small hospital in my town in Northeast China could not treat me adequately.
I told him, “It is my fault. I should go home and study the Fa and save people.” As soon as I said that, I felt well again. I realized that my thought was correct and I knew what I had to do.
I took a flight home the next day. When I got home, several local practitioners greeted and hugged me, as if I were reborn. One joked that my blood pressure might go up to 250 if I didn’t come back and everyone laughed together.
I sincerely thank Master Li for saving my life again. With the blessings of Master and help from other practitioners, I insisted on studying the Fa more every day. After understanding the Fa principles, I participated in the Fa-rectification activities right away.
I sincerely thank Master Li for his compassion. No words can describe my gratitude. I can only cultivate solidly to repay him for what he has given me. I could not have continued my cultivation journey over the past 20 years without Master's protection. Thank you, Master Li.
