My Husband’s Family Greatly Benefited After Understanding the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party

(Minghui.org) I have been married for over 40 years, and lived with my husband’s large family. As the youngest in the family, he has four brothers and one sister. At one point, four families lived in the same house of 80 square meters (about 860 square feet). After childbirth, even though I was young, I developed postpartum rheumatoid arthritis. I sought medical treatment everywhere, but I did not get better.

Fortunately, in 1996, I started practicing Falun Dafa under the influence of my family, and came to understand that the purpose of life is to return to one’s true self. Falun Dafa’s principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance transformed me from a selfish person into a practitioner who consistently considers others first. The following are some instances of how my husband’s family and I greatly benefited from Dafa after I began cultivating.

Only by Cultivating Dafa Could I Resolve Resentment With Kindness

On July 20, 1999, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began its intense persecution of Falun Dafa. As a Dafa practitioner, I was repeatedly arrested, detained, fined, and had items in my home confiscated. Feeling immense pressure, my husband’s family privately urged him to divorce me.

At that time, my husband was a leader at work, and he was negatively influenced by morally corrupt social trends. He had an affair and was frequently away from home. Even when he was here, the other woman would call him in the middle of the night. It was a nightmare for me. I had not yet learned how to cultivate my xinxing and was filled with anger.

When the CCP detained me for cultivating in Dafa, my husband filed for divorce. The court officials came to the detention center to announce the divorce ruling. Even worse, to help my husband keep our apartment and force me out, his family claimed that my family owed them money and fabricated evidence. Although it was an extremely difficult time for me, I held a firm belief that I would cultivate in Dafa no matter what happened, as Dafa is my only path.

My husband abandoned me at the peak of my hardship. Seven years later, after I paid off all the debts and supported my son through college, my husband returned home because he could no longer manage on his own. I took him back out of compassion. Over the years, he has also endured countless hardships under the CCP’s persecution. He had to sign documents and travel extensively to free me from imprisonment. I believe his true nature is kind, and he sincerely believes Falun Dafa is good.

My husband even told his sister that no one has ever treated him as well as I have and he will never leave me again. I once asked my sister-in-law what she would do if she were in my place. She said emotionally, “You Falun Gong practitioners are truly kindhearted. If it were me, I would never forgive him for the rest of my life, let alone allow him to return. Our whole family benefits from your cultivation of Falun Dafa!”

Almost everyone in my husband’s family has learned the facts about Falun Dafa and has withdrawn from the CCP and its affiliated organizations.

My Donation Touched My Husband’s Family

A few years ago, a dispute arose among my husband’s siblings over how much each family should contribute to a memorial for their deceased father. My sister-in-law wanted each family to contribute more to make it easier for her. However, the siblings had each made their own calculations. In the end, my husband contributed 2,000 yuan, while his second and third brothers each offered 1,000 yuan. The brothers were still unhappy about it, exchanged harsh words with their sister, and stormed off. My sister-in-law was furious; her face was flushed and her eyes filled with tears.

As a Dafa practitioner, I understand that these conflicts do not happen by accident. I took 3,000 yuan of my own money and gave it to her. Years ago, my husband’s mother contributed 1,000 yuan when I was arrested, but none of her family knew about it. My donation included a repayment of the 1,000 yuan. At first, she did not want to accept it, but I insisted.

My donation deeply touched my husband’s family. My sister-in-law told others with emotion, “My own brothers, who share the same mother, can’t compare to my younger sister-in-law. The memorial had nothing to do with her, yet she generously contributed 3,000 yuan from her own pocket because she practices Falun Dafa. My two brothers complained a lot about contributing just 1,000 yuan.”

My Sister-in-Law Tells Everyone “Falun Dafa Is Good”

Since then, my sister-in-law has undergone a remarkable transformation. She no longer refuses to listen when I share facts about Falun Dafa. I taught her to recite the miraculous verses “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” and now she does so every day. She had suffered from diabetes and cerebral thrombosis for many years, and her mouth would twist slightly when she spoke. Now, whenever she feels unwell, she listens to the audio version of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, sometimes until midnight, which always lifts her spirits. At 73, she tells others, “The things described in the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party (Nine Commentaries) are true! I and other people my age have lived through it.”

She tells everyone she knows that Falun Dafa is good, and she often shares her experience of how compassionate Master saved her life. One winter, during a heavy snowfall, she slipped on an icy road while rushing to pay her water bill. Her right hand touched the ground first, and then her whole body landed hard on the ice. Just as her head was about to hit the ground, she saw a pair of hands appear. They were so large that she could see the fingers, but not the palms. She told others later, “The miraculous, warm hands gently lifted my head to keep it from hitting the ground.”

Nearby pedestrians saw her fall. Some said, “This old lady must be badly hurt.” Some offered to help, but she said, “No need to pull me up. I can stand by myself.” She stood up and saw that her right hand was swollen and purple, but the rest of her body was normal. Later, she told us excitedly that it was all because she recited, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” every day. Master Li extended his divine hand to protect her at that critical moment. Whenever she talks about this experience, tears of gratitude fill her eyes.

My Brothers-in-Law Benefited from Listening to the Nine Commentaries

Influenced by my sister-in-law, a brother-in-law and his wife also started listening to the Nine Commentaries. My brother-in-law suffered a stroke over 10 years ago. He was a very stubborn person, with a dark complexion and a slow gait. However, he has truly changed since listening to the Nine Commentaries. His face has regained a healthy glow, and he can walk more briskly. During the pandemic, neither he nor his wife contracted the virus.

Then, I persuaded a different brother-in-law to listen to the Nine Commentaries. At first, he brushed it off, saying, “I fell asleep while listening to it.” Sometimes, he became upset and criticized Dafa practitioners for being “anti-CCP.”

The day before the Lunar New Year, my husband received a phone call from his sister and nervously said, “Sister told me my third brother was taken to the hospital by ambulance.”

It turned out that his brother was painting the walls at home that day. His wife noticed that his facial expression was unusual and asked him to go to the hospital. At first, he said he was fine, but soon after he could not move. She immediately called his son, who contacted a friend to pick up his father, as he was in the countryside at that time. By the time my brother-in-law was carried downstairs, his arms were already paralyzed. He was taken to the hospital by ambulance, and was diagnosed with a blockage in the cerebral artery, compressing the nerves. The doctor said he probably would not be able to use the stairs, as he lives on the eighth floor.

Upon hearing this, I contacted his son and encouraged him to recite the miraculous verses near his father’s ear. He knew about Falun Dafa, and promised to do as I advised.

Later, I visited my brother-in-law at the hospital and was amazed by his remarkable recovery. The day after the stroke, he was able to use the toilet, although he still could not articulate properly and sometimes had trouble recognizing people. I urged my nephew to have his father continue reciting the verses. My second brother-in-law and his wife also visited him every day and reminded him to recite, “Falun Dafa is good.” About 11 days later, he was discharged from the hospital.

A few days ago, my sister-in-law invited me to dinner. As soon as I walked in, I saw my third brother-in-law sitting on the couch, talking excitedly like he used to. I said, “Brother, you’ve recovered so quickly.” He replied, “I’ve been listening to the Nine Commentaries audio tape you gave me. I know everything it says is true, as I have experienced it all.” I was delighted to hear he now accepts the truth. I know he truly has a chance of being saved.

Thank you, Master, for your infinite grace in providing sentient beings the chance to be saved. My family and I are very grateful for Master’s compassionate salvation.
