(Minghui.org) Lung cancer is the most lethal of cancers. According to the latest data released by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) of the World Health Organization, 19.29 million new cancer cases were reported worldwide in 2020, including 4.57 million new cancer cases (23.7% of total cases) in China.
In addition, the National Cancer Center of China reported in 2019 that on average, more than 10,000 people were diagnosed with cancer in China every day, and 7.5 people were diagnosed with cancer every minute. In the past decade or so, the incidence of malignant tumors has maintained an annual increase of about 3.9% and the mortality rate has maintained an annual increase of 2.5%.
According to data released by the World Health Organization, in 2018, there were about 2.1 million new cases of lung cancer and 1.8 million deaths worldwide, equivalent to ten people dying of lung cancer every three minutes. Among the new cases, 820,000 were in China. Over the past three decades, the number of lung cancer deaths in China has increased by 452,000, more than half of the global deaths due to lung cancer.
Cancer is still a difficult problem for modern medicine to overcome, but many people have recovered quickly through the practice of Falun Dafa.
Back in 2015, Dr. Yuhong Dong surveyed 152 patients with advanced cancer who had practiced Falun Dafa. She found that 97% of them had their cancer disappear after the practice. Compared with the average predicted survival time of 5.1 months, the actual survival time of the research subjects, 56 months, was significantly longer. The average time from starting to practice Falun Dafa to recovery was only 3.6 months. Several indexes measuring quality of life after practicing Falun Dafa showed significant improvement.
Below are several stories of people recovering from lung cancer through practicing Falun Dafa.
Kang-won Yoon, a representative of Daejeon General Building Materials Company in South Korea, had dreamed of starting his own business since he was young.
In the third year after opening his factory in Daegu, he was diagnosed with lung cancer, which was a bolt from the blue for him. He underwent surgery and his lungs were partially removed, but his health continued to deteriorate.
“At that time, it was difficult for me to walk just ten steps. I thought that I would rely on the care of my family until the end of my life. I didn’t achieve the goal of my life. I really felt that there was nothing to be obsessed with in my life anymore, maybe this was my destiny.”
Yoon decided to become a monk. At the Miyang Monastery, Master Faxing gave him a copy of Zhuan Falun, the main book of Falun Dafa.
“After reading the book, I was deeply touched. This is really not an ordinary book. After I finished reading the book, I ended my monastic life and returned to my family.”
One day, in a park near his home, he encountered a Falun Dafa practitioner who was exercising. Yoon still has a fresh memory of that day, even the specific date.
“It was January 11, 2007. You know, for lung cancer patients, having a cold is terrifying, so my family strongly discouraged me from doing Falun Dafa exercises outdoors, but I still did it. I participated in the exercises in the park from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. That was the coldest memory I have ever had since I was born.”
After doing the exercises in the park, he returned to his warm home. For a long time, his frozen body did not warm up, but he still insisted on participating in the exercise in the park the next day.
“Although I was not sure of the exact reason, I overcame the cold weather and came out to participate in the exercises. Amazingly, I didn’t catch a cold!”
“Since I started participating in the exercise in the park, my body has changed dramatically. I felt lighter and I was no longer short of breath. I didn’t feel like a lung cancer patient anymore, and I was grateful that my health has been renewed. After my family witnessed my recovery, they all supported me in practicing Falun Dafa.”

After a period of practicing, Yoon was surprised to find himself able to run a lap around the entire football field. “I was healthy even during the 2008-2009 period when I was in the business of manufacturing carbide tools with heavy dust, which was not good for the respiratory tract.”
He incorporated the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance into his work and people all say that he is a great person. Such a “sense of trust” has given him a strong boost in his career. Now, his revenue has reached dozens of times his initial goal.
“Falun Dafa has made my life brighter, including my health, family, and career.” Reading the book Zhuan Falun brought him unexpected blessings and happiness.
He always introduced Falun Dafa to others confidently: “This is a practice that makes people healthier and kinder. I sincerely hope that more people will learn the practice, and I also believe that such a day will come.”
Ms. Guan Fenghua lives in Shuangcheng City, Heilongjiang Province, and her family runs a grocery store.
On April 10, 2009, she suddenly felt unwell. She went to the Second Hospital of Harbin Medical University, where a shadow was found in her lungs that warranted surgery.
As the surgery in Harbin was too expensive for her family, they went to an urgent care clinic in Shuangcheng. The doctor took a look at the film and said, “Isn’t this lung cancer? We can’t cure it. You’ll have to go back to where you came from.”
After she returned home, she began to worry. In the evening, a friend who practiced Falun Dafa came to visit her. The friend said that if she sincerely recited the auspicious phrases, “Falun Dafa is good; Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” she would be fine.
“I recited it, but it didn’t work.”
“Don’t get discouraged. You need to recite it with a calm mind and without any distracting thoughts in your heart.” The friend also told Ms. Guan many amazing things about Dafa.
The next day, April 11, 2009, her husband took her back to the hospital. Ms. Guan was focused on reciting the phrases all the way there.
Before the surgery scheduled four days later, the doctor performed another X-ray and was surprised to see that the tumor was gone! The doctor was puzzled: “What is going on? Just five days, and it is a miracle!”
Ms. Guan told the Falun Dafa practitioner when she returned home: “Thank you so much! I was calm and recited the phrases with all my heart.”
“Do not thank me. It is Dafa Dafa Master who saved you!”
Ms. Guan began practicing Falun Dafa since.
