(Clearwisdom.net) For many years I suffered from several diseases, but after I began practicing Falun Dafa in 2008, my whole body became free of illness and felt light. I have been enjoying my life ever since. I would not trade this feeling of being healthy for any amount of money in the world. I now live a life in line with the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.
Although I run a small business seven days a week, from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.—without vacations or lunch breaks—I never feel tired. For the past two years, I've been very healthy, and have not spent a penny on medications.
Before I started practicing Dafa, every year I took Chinese and Western medicines for 300 out of 365 days, just to survive. During that time, I suffered from headaches, lung infections, throat infections, constipation, skin rashes, chronic nose infections, and blood in my stool.
I took injections and medications every day, but they only treated the symptoms of my diseases, not the underlying causes. I was in the prime of my life, but the first impression that I gave others was that I was a sick and weak person with a very pale face. Nobody believed that I was as young as I was. I lost all hope for a fruitful life.
A roommate of mine, who worked with me in Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province, one day told me in a sad tone, “Yangzi, I am afraid to share a room with you. The different kinds medicines you take smell awful!” Because of my bad health, most of my monthly salary was used to pay for my frequent trips to the hospital. I was living a sad and miserable life. I thought that life was bitter and meaningless. If I didn't have to worry about my parents missing me, I would have committed suicide a long time ago.
After I married, my health did not improve one bit and there were endless conflicts in my family. I ran a grocery shop, but with my bad temper and poor attitude, I didn't do very well financially.
One day in December 2008, I had the good fortune to meet a Falun Gong practitioner. After the practitioner clarified the facts to me, I agreed to do the three withdrawals. I also remembered to sincerely recite “Falun Dafa is good!” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!”
I learned the five sets of exercises and read the book Falun Gong. I was later given the book Zhuan Falun to read. I initially found it hard to understand Master’s writings, but after re-reading the books two or three times, all the questions I ever had in my life were answered. I felt awakened and very lucky to have come across Dafa. I made a decision to bravely face all the challenges in my life and be responsible to myself, as well as help Master spread the Fa.
I began running my grocery store and my daily life in accordance with Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. I studied the Fa, practiced the exercises, and clarified the facts, along with my fellow practitioners.
Through our combined efforts, quite a few people with predestined relationships listened to us and quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. Without my really thinking about it, all of my illnesses disappeared. With a healthier body and mind, my confidence returned. The people who knew me said that I looked prettier.
I'd often hear fellow practitioners say, “When one person cultivates, the whole family will benefit,” and from my experience, this is absolutely true. In January 2001, my father suddenly experienced high blood pressure and dizziness and had to go to the hospital. In the hospital, he lost consciousness for a long time and his eyes rolled upward in his head.
The hospital called a family member and told them that my father was in critical condition. After I found out, I was shocked and rushed to the hospital, thinking, “My father is only in his fifties, and my daughter is not even four years old. She would not be able to bear living without her grandpa. Also, my new business is just starting to take off. How could I lose my father now?”
I asked Master to please save my father and bring him back to life. Ten minutes later, I arrived at the hospital. Rushing to my father’s bed, I called out, “Papa!” Several seconds later, he answered, “Oh, Yangzi, you have come.” At that time, a stream of tears ran down my face. The people who saw this all said, “This is really a miracle!”—but I knew it was Master who had saved my father.
I was so thankful to Master that I couldn't say a word, as tears filled my eyes. After witnessing the power of Dafa, all of my family members asked me to help them to do the three withdrawals. My father has now recovered and his health has returned. With his care, my daughter is very healthy and just turned five years old. She can easily recite Lunyu and Hong Yin, and sometimes helps us to clarify the truth.
I now have a healthy body, an even-tempered personality, a happy and close family, and a thriving business. I also have a positive attitude and I am always in a good mood. I am also eager to learn new things. I've become an entirely different person than I was before I learned the practice.
My husband also changed his attitude. In the beginning he opposed my practicing Dafa, but now he quietly and fully supports me. Because of Dafa’s mighty power, I am able to receive its blessings, which is possible only for cultivators.
In closing, I would like to thank Master for spreading the Fa and thank Him for his merciful salvation of all sentient beings. I would also like to thank the veteran fellow practitioners for talking to me and offering their support and encouragement. I consider myself to be very lucky to have become a practitioner. In order for us to help people wake up and embrace the Fa, we should work hard to clarify the facts and thus enjoy the beauty of Dafa.
