(Minghui.org) My health was poor before I began practicing Falun Dafa. I had pain all over my body, and my face and back were swollen. I often felt dizzy, as if the sky was spinning, and I couldn't breathe at night. I could barely sleep. According to hospital tests, this was caused by heart disease. I was hospitalized several times and spent a lot of money, but nothing really helped.
Falun Dafa Is Amazing
In 1998, my sisters came to visit me. They stayed at my house for a week, but I couldn't cook for them due to my poor health. The day before they left, my younger sister said, “I think it's time for you to practice cultivation.” She showed me the five Falun Dafa exercises. She didn't have Zhuan Falun with her, just a few of Master's lectures and some practitioners' cultivation experience sharing articles. When we went out that evening, we met a local Falun Dafa practitioner and she asked him to give me a copy of Zhuan Falun. Thus I received the treasured book.
After I began reading the Fa by myself, my illnesses were soon resolved. I felt energetic and I was able to work. When I had time, I read Master's lectures. I felt that Dafa was good.
After several attempts I finally found where the local group of practitioners met. I couldn't open my sales booth one day because it was raining, so I went there. The door was locked. I returned home and lay down. I thought: I was finally able to go to group Fa study, but no one was there.
As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw a shaft of red light reaching infinitely high. When I opened my eyes, it gradually faded. When I closed my eyes again, the scene reappeared. This happened a couple of times.
I didn't understand what was going on, so I told my sister. She said, “You are predestined to practice Falun Dafa. You should cultivate diligently. You are retired anyway, and your monthly pension is enough to live on—you don't need to work at the booth.” I decided to close my small business so that I could go to Fa-study at night.
After practicing for some time, Master helped me eliminate karma. My back and chest hurt and I vomited and had diarrhea. I couldn't take care of my grandson, so I sent him to the in-laws' house. Two days later when they visited me, I could only walk by holding onto the wall. I could barely raise my head as I lay on the sofa.
That evening when my relative came to see me again, she told me to rest. I suddenly realized that they treated me as though I were sick. I told her I was not sick; I was eliminating karma. I thanked her for her concern and said I would be fine. As soon as I said that, I opened my eyes and sat up. I was no longer nauseous or dizzy. Afterwards when I rode my bike I felt so light, it was as if my feet did not touch the pedals.
I went to my in-laws' house to pick up my grandson. They were astonished that I was able to come. They wouldn't let me take the child and insisted that I rest for a few more days. We talked until eleven o'clock that night, and then I went home. The next day I washed the clothes and the blankets and I didn't feel tired at all.
Clarifying the Truth at the Scene of an Accident
One winter afternoon I rode my motorbike home. I was trying to make a left turn when a speeding car hit me. I felt a sharp pain in my heart, as if it had been cut open with a knife. I immediately thought, “Master, please help me!” I kept repeating “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” By the time I stood up a crowd had gathered.
I thought, Master protected me. I must use this opportunity to save people. I told them, “Did you see that? My motorbike was broken into pieces, but I'm fine! It's because I'm a Falun Dafa practitioner. All the slander campaigns against Falun Dafa on TV are false. Look at me, I'm over sixty years old. Look at my hands and my body—I'm not injured, not even a scratch! I ask you to remember that 'Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.'” Some nodded and said it's true.
The owner of the car that hit me grabbed my hand, and shouted, “Are you okay, ma'am?” I said, “I am fine. Young man, you are lucky, I am a Falun Dafa practitioner, so I won't extort you for money.”
The traffic police processed the scene and called a car to take me home. On the way home, I told the people in the car that Falun Dafa is good, and that the CCP's persecution is wrong. Because they had witnessed the extraordinary power of Dafa, they all agreed with what I said and agreed to withdraw from all the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) organizations they joined.
The next morning, I went to the traffic police station to deal with the accident. I told the police, “You were the ones who handled the accident. My motorbike was destroyed. I'm sixty-years-old and I didn't get hurt. You know why, right?” When he shook his head I explained that I'm a Falun Dafa practitioner. I also clarified the facts and talked about the persecution.
I also told the police officers, “Please remember that 'Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,' and you will be blessed.” They all agreed. The owner of the car that hit me said, “Ma'am, we are so touched, I believe everything you said.”
In the process of dealing with the accident, I strictly followed the standards of a practitioner. I refused to accept any money and I told the car owner that I would not sue him. In the end, the traffic police told him to compensate me for the motorbike, and this was covered by the owner's insurance. I told the car owner that practitioners are kind and considerate of others. He was very happy and touched.
A relative later told me that the traffic police said that it's always a pain for them to deal with people's arguments over accident settlements, but he was very impressed by my upright behavior.
Through my case, many people learned how wonderful Falun Dafa is, and that practitioners are good people.
Negating the Persecution with Righteous Thoughts
I didn't get much of an education, so I'm not eloquent. I didn't know how to tell people about the persecution. I just had the heart to save sentient beings. So, I do whatever and as much as I can, like binding booklets, putting up book covers, etc. I don't pick and choose, as I feel that whatever we do validates the Fa.
Some practitioners suggested that I could learn how to operate a computer and print materials. I decided to learn. Gradually my home became a materials production site, and it operated smoothly for many years. I was later reported when I talked to people. The local police ransacked my home and took my Dafa books, computer, the printed materials, some printing paper and cash, etc.
When the police asked, “Why do you have so many materials?” I said, "These are for saving people.” I didn't cooperate at all when they asked me about other things or wanted to take photos. As soon as they left, I quickly left my home and told other practitioners to be careful.
My family wanted me to hide. I said I was determined not to follow the path arranged by the old forces. At their insistence I agreed to leave home temporarily. I came back eight or nine days later. My husband was afraid that I would be discovered, so he didn't let me do housework and asked me to hide in the back room. I was still a little uneasy, so I did as he asked. I studied the Fa and sent righteous thoughts. I sent forth righteous thoughts every hour to eliminate the evil.
After a month, Master's teachings suddenly helped me understand: I am a Dafa disciple walking on the divine path—how can I be afraid of wicked people? My attachment to fear allowed the evil elements to do these things. There are only two rooms in my home, where can I hide? Once I realized this, I immediately came out of the back room!
The police eventually returned. I refused to cooperate with them. My husband told them, “This matter is over.” They left.
The police did not come back. I knew it was because I fundamentally denied the persecution. Master saw that I eliminated the attachment and met the Fa's requirement—he resolved the difficulty.
Thank you, Master! With Master's care, I've been able to get through all these hurdles to get to where I am today!
