(Clearwisdom.net) I am a 39-year-old farmer from Xichang City, Sichuan Province. On June 11, 2000, the nerves on my head and face seared with pain. After a check-up at the hospital, it was discovered that I had a brain tumor. For seven years, I tried all kinds of treatment, and not one of them worked. The illness became more and more severe, until I was paralyzed on one side of my body, close to losing my sight, deaf in my left ear, frothing at the mouth, and unable to speak clearly.
In my attempts to find a cure, I spent all my savings. At the time, I still held onto the hope of an operation to remove the tumor, but after consulting with many people, I learned that the possibility of dying after the surgery was high. Plus, the 60,000 to 70,000-yuan operation cost could not be afforded by a family like mine. I was at my wits end.
Because of the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) brutal persecution of Falun Gong under Jiang Zemin's rule, I was influenced by all the media that was broadcasting slander and propaganda, and I started off by completely ignoring and mistrusting the true information that practitioners told me. But when I was on the brink of losing all hope, I had no choice but to renounce my pride and ask my mother to beg the local practitioners to help me. It was a last ditch effort to save myself.
What happened afterwards I can only call a miracle. On the first day I started studying the Fa and practicing the exercises I discarded the medication that I had not been able to part with for the past eight years. Previously, if I missed a single dose, my head would ache beyond measure.
That was February 16, 2008. Since then, I have become healthier day by day. On June 10, 2008, my mother had an operation to have a gallstone removed, and I took up the house and farm work. In my heart I understood that only the Fa and Teacher can save sentient beings. The Fa has given me a second chance at life.
In February 2009, my illness appeared to return, causing a lot of gossip among everyday people who didn't understand the truth. This was actually a result of my own incompetence in not being able to truly believe in the Fa and Master, and not upgrading my xinxing. The details were as follows: At the time, unrighteous thoughts appeared in my head, such as, "Wouldn't an operation to remove the tumor be easier? Having to read the Fa and practice the exercises every day is such hard work. And I have to bother fellow practitioners to do so much for me, a single person." The moment this thought emerged, I could not get out of bed, and I could not study the Fa. I could not practice the exercises. Because the unbearable pain restarted, I told my family members to buy medication, but taking it had no effect. Unable to get out of bed or eat, hearing the sound of a coffin being made in the yard as my family prepared for my death, I felt bitterness from the bottom of my heart.
Fellow practitioners were very anxious about my lack of enlightenment. They crowded around my bed, helped me study the Fa, and talked to me. I finally realized that my single wrong thought caused this, and I found the faults in my xinxing. The moment I corrected myself, my head stopped hurting, I was able to eat and sleep again, and I could once again study the Fa and do the exercises. I quickly put on weight and my skin became lighter. I had received my third chance at life. There is no way I can ever repay Teacher's benevolence.
The above is my personal experience. I am thanking Dafa for saving the core of my being. From now on, I will believe in Dafa resolutely, study the books, and cultivate myself.
Therefore, I hope that all sentient beings will stop believing the CCP's lies and pick an early date to learn the truth about Falun Gong. I hope that they can, like me, choose a beautiful future for themselves and their families.
