In early 1999, a bureau chief's wife, in her 60's, suffered severe heart disease and had to be hospitalized. However, she didn't want to undergo surgery, as there was a risk that she wouldn't survive it. She had to take heart medication as many as 4 times each night. She talked to a friend who was a practitioner and told him that she wanted to learn Falun Gong but had heard that Falun Gong did not allow people to take medicine. The practitioner told her that this was a misunderstanding. Some people no longer took medication after practicing Falun Gong because their diseases were cured and so they didn't need to take medicine. Hearing that, she wanted to learn Falun Gong right away.

As soon as she had this thought, she started to experience changes in her body. The next morning, she told the practitioner that she only had to take her medicine three times during the previous night. She started to learn the exercise movements that day. On the next day, she told the practitioner that she only needed her medicine twice during the previous night. The practitioner told her that Master was taking care of her. She said, "If Master is already taking care of me then I don't need to take any medicine." Around 6 am the next day, she called the practitioner and told him that she woke up at dawn and realized that she hadn't needed to take any medicine during the previous night. She also said she would go to a practice site. From then on, the bureau chief's wife started to practice Falun Gong.

On her first day at a practice site, one practitioner showed her how to do the Standing Stance exercise. When she was practicing "Embracing the Wheel Before the Head," she entered into the state of Ding (a state of an empty, yet conscious mind). After she came out of Ding, she told the practitioner that she had experienced another dimension and had seen Master standing on a big lotus flower with a lot of large Faluns beside him, and the Faluns were circling each other. She said it was so grand that she even forgot the other practitioner was there.

The first time she joined the group study, she couldn't read any words in the book because of trouble with her eyesight. On the second day, she said it was better but she still needed to wear her glasses to read. Later on, she learned that many elderly practitioners no longer needed to wear their glasses. She thought maybe she didn't need to wear hers either. Then, she really could see clearly without her glasses. Thus, she got rid of the glasses that she had worn for over 10 years.

Not long after, the April 25 appeal by 10,000 practitioners in Zhongnanhai occurred. Local governments in China then received orders from above and started to harass people at the practice sites, so she lost the group practice environment she had just obtained.

In the beginning, she meditated every day. She entered into the state of Ding and felt very comfortable. After July 20, when Falun Gong was banned by Jiang Zemin, her contact with other practitioners became less and less frequent. At the same time, conflicts in her life started to become harder and harder. As she hadn't learned Dafa very deeply yet and her Xinxing hadn't had time to improve, when the tribulations accumulated, she couldn't conquer them and eventually gave up the practice. Later on, her heart disease returned and she was hospitalized again.

After about a year, she visited another practitioner and said she wanted to study again. She had a dream that night. In her dream, many, many people were waiting to get on buses. She ran and ran, and just barely caught a bus. As soon as she found a seat and sat down, the bus drove away. Some time after this, as nearby practitioners were illegally arrested one after another, she became afraid and gave up the practice for the second time.

In 2002, she and her husband visited relatives in Canada for six months. In Canada, wherever they went they encountered practitioners doing the exercises or telling people about the brutal persecution of Falun Dafa in China. She was also very lucky to meet a practitioner who participated in round-the-clock sit-in appeals to end the persecution in front of a Chinese Consulate. So she started to practice Falun Gong again for the third time while in Canada. After six months, her health condition improved considerably. After she returned to China, she told local practitioners that she would never give up the practice of Dafa again.

Seeing his wife's health improve, the bureau chief knew that Falun Dafa was good. After the persecution started, he told a public security division chief not to get involved in the persecution and that Falun Gong was really powerful as it could cure heart disease. After that, the division chief was no longer as active in persecuting Falun Gong. However, the bureau chief didn't decide to practice Falun Gong until he had witnessed the miracles of Dafa himself.

This occurred after they returned from Canada. One night he woke up at midnight and saw two rotating Faluns move from his wife's abdominal area to her neck and then back to her abdomen. He was very surprised. The next night he again woke up at midnight and this time he saw his wife's forehead was shining (in the third eye area). At first he thought it must be a car's head light from outside. But when he opened the curtain he did not see any car outside or any other source of light. Later on he told his wife what he had seen. He also asked her to never stop practicing Falun Dafa again and that he too wanted to learn Dafa.

Thus both the chief and his wife learned Falun Dafa.
