(Clearwisdom.net) I am an ordinary factory worker from Changchun, Jilin Province. Teacher and his Falun Dafa (Falun Gong) gave me a second lease on life.
On the evening of February 20, 2005, I suddenly suffered a stomachache after returning home. I skipped dinner that night. No one in my family suspected anything out of the ordinary. However, the pain grew increasingly worse that night and I kept tossing and turning. As soon as my wife, a Falun Dafa practitioner, realized that I was tormented by excruciating pain of unknown origin during the middle of the night, she got up and began to read Zhuan Falun to me. While bearing the intense pain, I was able to listen to and grasp part of what she read to me. After ten minutes of listening to her read, a miracle happened. My stomach pain weakened significantly. My wife also realized that I was getting better, but she continued to read Zhuan Falun. Before I knew it, I had fallen asleep.
The following morning, the stomachache returned right after breakfast. My wife took me to the hospital. The doctor's initial diagnosis was acute gastritis and pancreatitis. The doctor prescribed doses of injections and medications for a few days, but the condition worsened. I went to the county hospital (a larger hospital) and had a CT scan that indicated a tumor in the right lobe of the liver that measured about 3.7x 3.7 inches. The tumor had grown quite large and had started to affect my right kidney.
I knew I was doomed because the hospital did not offer any treatment. Instead, they only gave me a short prescription of Dolantin. [Note: Dolantin is a brand name of pethidine (international genetic name) or meperidine (US generic name). It has similar effects as morphine.] Our entire family was shocked. My elderly father in his 80's was overcome with tears. My wife, on the other hand, encouraged me. "Don't worry," she told me. "Modern science is not entirely reliable. As long as you are determined in practicing Falun Gong, Teacher will be able to save your life."
Thus, I started my Falun Gong cultivation practice. I bought a DVD/VCD player with the money my family had reserved for my medical expenses. Then my wife borrowed Teacher's Fa lectures on VCD. During the first few days of my cultivation practice, the intense pain did not subside much. During this period, I could not eat or drink anything, because any food intake would cause excruciating pain. The intense pain kept me up all night. Only when I listened to Teacher's Fa lectures on VCD, would I feel a little less pain. Thus I started a VCD and audiotape marathon nearly around the clock. The pain started to subside significantly. On the evening of March 2, 2005, I suddenly suffered from a much more intense pain that lasted the whole night. That night my wife helped me search inward and helped me discover many attachments and areas where I failed to conduct myself as a cultivator. When I identified these problems at about 7:00 a.m., the pain subsided significantly. This helped me reinforce my determination to continue my cultivation practice.
On March 4, however, the pain suddenly increased significantly. I continued to listen to Teacher's Fa lectures while struggling to endure the excruciating pain. However, I continued to suffer from excruciating pain late into the night. Finally I could no longer endure the agony. I shouted at my wife, "Honey, please help me!" My wife replied, "I am unable to help you. Only Teacher will be able to help you when you persevere in your faith in the Fa." Then suddenly my wife thought of something. She added, "Something must be wrong. If Teacher is eliminating your karma, he will make sure that you will be able to endure it. Teacher will guarantee your safety during the process. The excruciating pain you are now suffering must be the arrangement of the degenerate old forces. They are trying to take your life. We must eliminate the old forces and triumph over them. You must not succumb to the old forces' torture. Countless Falun Gong practitioners have been subjected to even worse persecution and some of them have even lost their precious lives in defiance of the old forces' persecution. Compared to what they had gone though, the pain you are suffering is nothing. Lie down and fall asleep."
Immediately after my wife had spoken these words, my pain reduced significantly. I was a little shocked by the miracle. I slowly climbed onto the bed and lay down. Soon I fell asleep. The following morning, I woke up feeling very rested and comfortable. This miraculous experience once again validated Falun Gong's magnificence and greatness. It is true that Falun Gong practitioners' righteous thoughts can disintegrate all the evils instantly.
From then on, I started to eat. I felt that Teacher has been watching over me.
It has been over two months since I started Falun Gong cultivation practice. I have completely recovered and decided to return to work after a few days. My entire family and my relatives were amazed by the miracle of my recovery. They all exclaimed, "Falun Gong can truly produce miracles!"
Falun Gong not only has saved my life and restored my health, but also has protected my family. About two weeks ago, my 82-year-old father was hit by a car when he was crossing an intersection. I was terrified when I heard the news. Last year when my father slipped and fell, he had a fracture on his left wrist. I imagined that the injury would be much more severe this time. The driver got out off his car immediately and helped my father get up. He asked, "Are you okay? Let me take you to the hospital." But my father answered, "I am fine. You may leave." The driver checked on my father to find that he was indeed unharmed. Then he took off. People who had witnessed the car accident commented, "This elderly man must have accumulated a lot of virtue. He will be able to live to reach 100 years old."
I have to thank Teacher and Falun Gong for all of these blessings. It is Teacher and Falun Gong that have given me a new lease of life. After having witnessed my miraculous recovery, my neighbors commented, "Falun Gong is truly great!"
