(Clearwisdom.net) Although I didn't practice Falun Gong, I knew some Falun Gong practitioners. They were sincere and kind-hearted. I knew that Falun Gong was good and teaches people to follow the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, and to be good people. If everyone followed these principles, the world not have wars, and people would not be greedy or filled with evil thoughts. There would not be so much beating, smashing, looting, fighting, cheating, and natural disasters running rampant everywhere. Wouldn't the world be a wonderful place if everyone followed Dafa's principles?
Here is my personal experience that I would like to share with everyone in hopes they might benefit from it.
I met with a friend one day, and she was very sad. I asked her what was wrong. She told me in tears, “I am suffering and have lost interest in living. I might die very soon because for a long time, I have been unable to eat and I throw up whatever I eat. I went to the doctor and took all kinds of medications, but the symptoms didn't go away. I must have a terminal illness.”
It was heartbreaking to look at her pale face. I then told her the following true story.
A doctor I knew had a late-stage cancer. The hospital refused to give her any further treatment and told her to rest at home until the end came. She later met a Falun Gong practitioner who advised her to sincerely repeat the words, “Falun Dafa is good” and she did. A week later, a miracle happened. She regained her energy and was able to eat and sleep. The tumors spreading at her cervix and vagina were eliminated, and the chief of gynecology verified this. She repeated “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” and the tumors totally disappeared. She felt much better. She is still alive, retired, and busy with household chores. Her relatives all witnessed her recovery and felt the power of Dafa.
As my friend listened to the story, her eyes widened. “Is that true?” she asked. Even though my friend is also a doctor, all her medical knowledge could not save her life. Her only hope was to rely on Falun Gong, which had been severely persecuted by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). She asked, “Is Dafa really that magical?” One day, not long after our conversation, I received a phone call from her. She had followed my suggestion by every day repeating, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” She now felt much better, and could eat and sleep. She stopped throwing up and her stomach pain disappeared. Her husband and family are very grateful that I let them know about Dafa. They also expressed their interest in learning more about Falun Gong. They want more people to get to know Dafa and to benefit from the practice.
I was also excited and grateful for Master’s great compassion and salvation, and I hope that more people will awaken. Falun Dafa is great and powerful and teaches people to become better people. I often thought that truthfulness asks one to tell the truth, Compassion is about being kind to others and doing good deeds, and Tolerance is being forbearing towards everyone and not becoming angry. How wonderful these three words are! If everyone followed Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance, the world would live in peace.
I have not yet begun practicing, but I've read many Dafa materials, and I have experienced first-hand the goodness of Dafa. I feel that just by acknowledging that Dafa is good, I have changed as well.
I really hope that more people will come to understand Dafa, and learn the truth and power of Dafa, especially those who have been suffering. Please treasure this precious opportunity. We have to seriously consider why, under such great pressure and intense persecution by the CCP, there are still so many people who have persisted and have such strong faith in Dafa? Why has Falun Dafa spread rapidly to more than 100 countries around the world? We Chinese people, inheritors of a divinely-inspired ancient culture, really need to reflect more on this.
