Afflicted with many different diseases
Before I was married, I suffered from sinusitis and tonsillitis. I became extremely weak after giving birth to my daughter in 1988. I also suffered from constipation, pain in my arms and legs, frozen shoulders, arthritis, gastroenteritis, weak limbs, and palpitations, as well as shortness of breath. I had to have injections and infusions every few days, and I also traveled to many places to seek a cure, but all in vain.
Twice, I went to the Hebei Provincial Hospital and was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. However, the more treatments I was given for the condition, the worse the symptoms got, and my nose began to bleed for no apparent reason.
Based on test results, I was diagnosed with chronic hepatitis in 1980, and I often collapsed when being hospitalized.
After I was discharged from the hospital, the doctor gave me a lot of medications, which were supposed to protect my liver and stomach. Western medication, which was used to protect my liver, had serious side effects, so I needed to take another medicine to protect my stomach, even though my stomach was already ruined. Whenever I took this medicine, my stomach hurt really badly. At my wits' end, I threw away all those medications and relied on injections and infusions, as well as traditional Chinese medicine. However, nothing really worked, and my health went from bad to worse. In order to relieve my pain, I worshiped God and Buddha and asked them for help. I also began to practice qigong. However, my health just got worse, and I decided to stop everything—the medication, qigong, and my belief—and simply live one day at a time.
I still remember one winter day in 1994, when I was staying at my mother's house. That morning when I left the bathroom, I passed out. When I came to, I was lying on the floor, sweating all over. My cotton-padded clothes were soaked with sweat. My mother and daughter were crying next to me. I did not know how long I was unconscious. At the time, I thought that if I could find someone to help me recover, give me back my strength, and help me to eat normally again, I would be forever grateful to that person.
Free of disease after practicing Falun Gong
An aunt, who lived downstairs in my mother's house, contracted rectal cancer in 1995. However, she fully recovered after she practiced Falun Gong. She told me, "If your health is not good you can practice Falun Gong!" I told her that I wouldn't do it, since I did not believe in anything anymore.
Yet, my heart was very willing to listen to Teacher's Fa lectures. When I heard Teacher's benevolent and kind voice, I felt very content. One night I had a dream and saw Bodhisattva Guanyin combing my hair. The next morning when I got up, my head felt great.
March 20, 1996, is the day that I will never forget. I drove my daughter on my bike to my mother's home. I was unable to pedal up over the overpass and had to dismount and push the bike over. Arriving at my mother's house, I had difficulty walking up to the third floor. By then, I did not even have enough strength to eat. My mother said, "After our meal, let's practice Falun Gong." My mother had only practiced for a few days when her illnesses, including high blood pressure and headaches, disappeared. I agreed, and after we had eaten, we did the five exercises and afterward I felt very relaxed. When I rode my bike home, I felt as if someone was pushing me, and I did not feel tired going upstairs. On the third day of doing the exercises, Teacher began to purify my body. I had all the symptoms of a cold including a runny nose and a headache. At that time, I had very poor enlightenment, so I bought a bottle of medicine. However, when I took it, my symptoms did not improve at all. In the evening, the assistant from the practice site said to me, "You are eliminating your karma." I knew then that Teacher was looking after me, adjusting my health and purifying my body. I never took another pill again.
Later on, my third eye opened and I saw a big eye in my forehead when I did the exercises in the morning. Two beams of light entered into my right and left eye and I was able to see from those three eyes. For the very first time, I saw a golden tunnel, a spinning Falun, and scenes in other dimensions. I was very happy. However, due to my poor enlightenment quality and having a show off mentality, my third eye closed.
After I started to practice Falun Gong, all my illnesses began to recur. I treated that as a good thing and knew it was Teacher helping me to purity my body. In the summer of 1996, I suffered from diarrhea, which lasted the entire summer. This symptom disappeared altogether after that. When Teacher was eliminating my karma and my nose was bleeding, I was a bit scared, because whenever my nose bled in the past, I lost strength. Therefore, I begged Teacher, "Teacher, don't let my nose bleed anymore." Thereafter, I dreamed many times that my nose was bleeding, but I knew it was Teacher, who was helping me to eliminate my sickness karma in my sleep.
It's true that it's hard to repay Teacher for His infinite grace! Thank you, Teacher, for giving me a second chance in life. All I can do is present my pure heart! When my family and relatives witnessed the wonderful things that happened to me, a dozen of them also started to learn Falun Dafa and became Teacher's students.
