1. Falun Dafa Changed My Life Unexpectedly

Before May 1996, I was polluted in the big dye vat of everyday society. I resented the world and detested mundane affairs and the fickleness of human relationships. I strove to excel, but I harbored hatred, envy, and many bad habits. I was soaked in desire for fame, self-interest, and sentiment and was encumbered with various illnesses. I visited doctors and sought medicine to cure my illness. Fed up with suffering, I saw many different doctors after being sick for long periods, but the more treatments I underwent, the more illnesses I had. In despair and pessimism, I frequently thought about ending my life.

On May 10, 1996, a kind Falun Dafa practitioner led a desperate me to a Dafa practice site. I learned from them for three days, and amazing things began to happen: While I was holding the wheel above the head on the third night of practice, I felt my nervous migraine that had occurred after lunch every day for many years suddenly disappear. My incurable stubborn skin problem I had had for twenty years also disappeared. My belly pain and its swollen feeling--even without dinner--also disappeared. The hard lump in my left breast drained out with a rotten smell! My angina pectoris (chest pains) and long-term coughing caused by tuberculosis also disappeared. Before, I felt tired after walking just several steps, and if I suddenly stood up, I would get dizzy and almost black out. Before, I had to stop and rest while walking uphill or up several steps. Now, I felt fresh and full of energy!

I joyfully ran home, excited about telling my parents about my recovery. My parents had always worried about me. Later, I took my mother to the practice site. After watching one cassette of Teacher's lecture, she also wanted to practice Falun Gong! After more in-depth practice, even the root of my frequent colds was removed. The feeling of being free of illness was so wonderful!

2. Mother Practices Dafa, Father Benefits

My mother was born with deformed hands. In her childhood, she suffered hunger and cold and lacked a permanent home. Perhaps as a result, she had all kinds of diseases; a famous senior doctor of Chinese medicine once said that she would probably not live past 60. Mother had inflammation of the trachea, pain in her muscles and joints, and inflammation in her blood vessels. She also had several recurring diseases from her teens which caused severe pain and unceasing misery; she almost died several times. Very fortunately, she stepped into Dafa practice at the age of 59. She is now 71. She often showers with cold water, she carries heavy loads of over 100 pounds without a problem, and she is busy from morning to night, but does not feel tired. People all say she looks only about 40.

My father's life has always been rough. Since his childhood, he received no love from his father. He was left destitute after being persecuted by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). He was deceived in the "Great Cultural Revolution" and imprisoned. He lived in poverty and was mentally harmed. Afterwards, he resented the world and detested mundane affairs. He drank and smoked excessively. He became ill due to overwork and contracted many unusual diseases at a very young age. Those diseases included double emphysema, serious bronchitis, heart disease from lung disorders, and long spells of coughing which made breathing difficult. His old friend who had had the same emphysema died early. However, my father's diseases began to disappear as my mother practiced Falun Gong.

3. Husband Gains New Life Through Practice

Since childhood, my husband has been physically weak. Later he drove big freight trucks, rushing about day and night; and he ended up developing many diseases. The serious rhinitis (inflammation of the mucus membranes of the nose) caused him oppressive headaches and painful and swollen temples. He often had headaches and dizziness for which he could not find a cure. His stomach disease was also quite severe. It became worse in the later part of 1999 as I was detained in a forced labor camp for appealing for justice for Falun Gong. My husband too, was severely persecuted and attacked by the CCP. The persecution was often instigated by people who did not know the truth. Depressed, he began to gamble, watch porn videos, and lost interest in his job. Neither did he have proper mental attitude to raise our child. As I was about to be released from forced labor camp--even before I returned home--he set the "rules" for me, but he did not change his bad habits. His health became worse and worse; he had gastric hemorrhages many times. Doctors shook their heads after doing a gastroscope and giving him emergency blood transfusions. He was emaciated and listless, and intravenous injections no longer helped him.

One day in 2006, he continuously bled for several days and could eat nothing--not even milk and rice water. When he swallowed, he choked and could not breathe. When his condition seemed worse than death, and although he was unable to walk, two fellow practitioners and I took him to a Fa study group. Two practitioners from another city awakened him with wonderful Dafa songs. With the strengthening from merciful Teacher, he clearly experienced the wonder of Dafa. When he sent forth righteous thoughts, even with his severely sick body, Teacher purified his body straight away. My husband said from his heart, "Dafa is very good! It is wonderful!"

As a matter of fact, he acknowledged Dafa and the kind practitioners who helped him. They established the foundation for him to learn the practice. It was very special when everyone at the practice site encouraged my husband! He clenched his teeth and pulled up his legs to do the double lotus position. In so doing, he firmly eliminated the karma and practiced to the end of the recording! No matter how painful his legs were and how uncomfortable it was, he endured. His calves were swollen as thick as his thighs, yet he did not put down his legs early. He said, "The pain won't kill me!" He sat with his legs crossed and read three lectures of Zhuan Falun every day. He walked with me very far to clarify the truth and offer people salvation. He studies the Fa and practices the exercises diligently. He does very well at looking inwards to improve his xinxing and harmonize the one body.

4. Practitioners Sincerely Practice, Family Members Benefit

There is a practitioner couple in our area. When their daughter got married, the son-in-law and several guests were traveling in a car that fell off a cliff over ten meters high into a river. The son-in-law remembered what his parents often urged him, "Keep firmly in mind that Falun Dafa is good. That thought can save your life if you are ever in danger." They struggled for over an hour in deep water, but all eventually made it to safety!

Another elderly practitioner's daughter-in-law had several miscarriages, and the doctor said she could never give birth. The over-30-year-old daughter-in-law tossed about in despair. The doctors, however, turned out to be wrong, as she did become pregnant. An unusual thing happened before the pregnancy: She was recuperating at home one day, with her head on the bed. She saw a blurred vision of a lotus flower fluttering in the sky from the west. A big Buddha dressed in yellow sat on it, doing hand gestures. He said to her with a smile, "You will give birth to a child called Qian Hui." After he spoke, a lotus flower fell into her lap, and she immediately became wide awake and alert. She said the Buddha looked exactly the same as Teacher's Buddha image in her main room. Ten months later, she gave birth to a wonderful, healthy child.

There was an elderly lady who once learned Falun Gong before 1999 but had given up the practice due to fear and obstruction from family members after the persecution began. She had moved to other city to help her daughter care for her child, and thus, she no longer had contact with her former fellow practitioners. Some time ago she returned home and was diagnosed with late stage cancer of the uterus. All day long, there was both unbearable pain and a terrible smell. She sought medical help everywhere, but doctors refused to treat her and told her to prepare for her death. Unutterably sad, she one day suddenly remembered the practitioners who had introduced Falun Gong to her before the persecution began. That time had been so outstanding and precious! Those days had been so very happy! She fell asleep while remembering. She recalled a blurred vision of a person who asked her, "Do you want to return to Dafa practice? If you do, wait at a certain place at a certain time tomorrow." The next day, her daughter pushed her in a wheelchair to the designated place at the designated time. Two practitioners came in about two minutes and saw her painful appearance. They explained the truth to her and agreed to meet at the same place in two days. They brought many Dafa books and materials. They met every two days and gave her lots of materials to "clarify the truth." Her daughter pushed her through the streets and lanes to distribute the materials. Her condition started to improve in a few days. Her elder sister-in-law notice her health improve, and she, too, came to support Dafa and helped to distribute materials. Soon afterwards, her disease disappeared. The bad smell also vanished, and she could again walk. Now she can easily climb upstairs to distribute materials and has completely recovered. She, her daughter, and the elder sister-in-law study the Fa, practice the exercises, and clarify the truth together. They practice Dafa in an open and honorable way. They feel enriched and happy every day; they know the feeling of real happiness!

One of our old friends is a former Party committee secretary. He once had serious depression and spent tens of thousands of yuan at several prominent hospitals but could not be cured. He felt restless at home and wanted to commit suicide several times. We helped him to withdraw from the CCP and encouraged him to join Dafa practice. We accompanied him to study the Fa and practice the exercises every day. Our friend quickly had his health restored. Now he goes everywhere to promote Dafa. Every time he gets a phone call, he answers the phone with, "Falun Dafa is good!" He also sings self-composed song to praise Dafa wherever he goes. He and his family members acquired a new life and appreciate Teacher's salvation.
