Falun Dafa Fills Our Lives With Sunshine and Kindness

(Minghui.org) Our area was a small prefecture-level city thirty years ago. In 1995, a local college student who was studying out of town introduced Falun Dafa to our area. From then on, the radiance of Dafa shone upon our region. Through word of mouth Dafa spread rapidly here, and the number of practice sites grew from one to several.

Every morning, people could be seen doing the exercises in the small parks around the city, on roadsides, or near the river. Besides the majority who were young and middle-aged, there were also children and elderly people in their seventies and eighties. Some elderly people with white hair found that after practicing Falun Dafa for just a week or two, most of their hair turned black. Some elderly people’s deep facial wrinkles became shallower, and their age spots disappeared. Everyone felt energetic and beamed with joy.

People did the exercises together in the morning and studied the Fa together in the evening and they exchanged experiences. Everyone talked about how they measured themselves with the standards of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance when they encountered conflicts, how they considered others at their work, how they showed forbearance when they were treated unfairly or when they were faced with conflicts, and their experiences in passing xinxing tests. Everyone followed Dafa’s standards and genuinely cultivated their xinxing. Because everyone’s mindset improved, the illnesses they originally had disappeared through Fa study and doing the exercises.

Falun Dafa Blesses My Family

I would like to share an example from my own family: In March 1996, my mother-in-law had surgery for stomach cancer. During the operation, the doctors found that the cancer had already metastasized to other organs, making surgery impossible. They closed the incision and sent her home to wait for the end. The whole family was shrouded in the gloom of her illness every day, with no hope of recovery and immense suffering.

My brother-in-law, hoping to extend his mother's life, searched everywhere and finally bought some so-called ancestral secret remedy from another city. But my mother-in-law couldn’t take it because she could barely eat anything. My husband and I wanted to do something for her and also hoped to ease her fear and anxiety. One morning, we took her for a walk to a small park. We happened to encounter people practicing Falun Dafa. The volunteer assistant introduced Dafa to us and lent us a copy of Zhuan Falun.

After returning home, my husband found time to read just half a lecture of the Dafa book before telling me and my mother-in-law, “This is a good book, a really good book!” Since I had to take care of my mother-in-law, do housework, and go to work, I had no time to read. So my husband told us what he read and understood, and I was completely engrossed listening to him. I made time in the mornings to accompany my mother-in-law to the small park to do the Falun Dafa exercises.

After practicing for just one week, I discovered that my chronic cold, heart disease, nervous system disorder, irregular menstruation, and hemorrhoids were gone. I was absolutely astonished. As a head nurse working at a municipal hospital, I had taken Western and Chinese medicine year after year, but could never cure or regulate my own health issues. How could one week of practicing Falun Dafa cure them all? My mother-in-law also felt much lighter in her body and could eat some porridge.

The volunteer assistant arranged for us to go to a Fa study site to listen to recordings of Master’s lectures in Jinan. After listening to Master’s lectures I understood that the true purpose of coming to this world is to return to one’s original, true self. I also understood why people get sick. I decided to practice Falun Dafa. I measured my behavior with Dafa’s standards and examined which of my behaviors did not conform to Dafa, and I gradually rectified them.

First, I recalled that when relatives and friends came to my hospital for treatment and needed examinations, I used my connections to have them pay less or nothing (this was quite normal among medical staff at our workplace). I calculated all the money I had taken advantage of from the hospital, then returned it to the hospital through the outpatient cashier under the name of a group physical examination. At home, I took even more attentive care of my mother-in-law and carefully prepared her food. At that time, my son was in high school.

Every day after work, I faced a pile of housework, but I was able to let go of my usual tendency to get anxious. I treated my family with a calm and peaceful attitude and did everything at home well, so my mother-in-law felt welcome in our home. My mother-in-law used to harbor strong resentment toward my father-in-law. After listening to Master’s lectures, she also measured herself against Dafa and looked within. Gradually, she let go of her resentment. Her health gradually improved, and without taking any medication, she was able to eat anything.

Falun Dafa’s radiance dispelled the gloom that hung over our family! Our hearts were truly filled with sunshine and happiness. We sincerely thank Master from the bottom of our hearts! We are grateful to Dafa!

As my mother-in-law and I underwent tremendous physical and mental transformations, some of our relatives and friends began practicing Falun Dafa, and everyone benefited.

People Benefit From Falun Dafa

Here is another example: After I introduced the Fa to my colleague and good friend, she began practicing. She brought Zhuan Falun to work to read during her spare time. When a new colleague in her department, a woman in her thirties who had just been transferred there, picked up the book and looked at it Master opened her celestial eye. After reading the book once, Master purified her body:

She had an ovarian cyst on one side. During surgical treatment, the doctor mistakenly removed the healthy ovary, so they had to remove both ovaries entirely. After the surgery, she had no menstrual periods. The complete removal of her ovaries caused her body’s hormone levels to become unbalanced. She looked rather aged, was very weak and thin, and felt a mass in her abdomen that she could feel with her hands. A subsequent examination confirmed it was a teratoma.

Because she just started working at our workplace and was only on temporary transfer, she didn’t want her colleagues to know about her illness. Every day, she could only force herself to work despite her sick body, and after work, she went home to receive an IV treatment. Her husband liked to have fun—not only did he like to drink, but he also gambled and played cards—so he ignored her. Her child was young and just started elementary school. Her life was unbearably bitter, and there was no sunshine in her heart.

After she began cultivating herself according to Dafa’s standards. Her menstrual period came (having a period without ovaries cannot be explained by modern medicine), and the flow was exceptionally heavy, but she felt no fatigue or discomfort. Her husband, seeing her lose so much blood and worried she was in danger, bought supplements for her to take, but she politely declined. After bleeding for about a month, the mass in her abdomen was gone. She had energy to do things. Her family’s gratitude to Master and Dafa was beyond words.

Her husband began reading the Dafa books. Although he didn’t cultivate, he believed Dafa is good, and supported his wife in cultivating. Especially during the 27 years of persecution of Dafa and practitioners by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), whenever the practitioners encountered danger, he fearlessly protected his wife. During the CCP’s frenzied persecution, he even secretly brought the precious book Zhuan Falun to his workplace without telling his wife and gave it to his leaders to read. After his leader read the book, that leader was transferred. When a new leader came, he secretly gave the book to the new leader to read without telling his wife. Several leaders came and went in succession, and all of them, because of him, got to see the precious Dafa book and learned that Dafa is good. Moreover, he gave up his bad habit of gambling. He was cheerful every day. Later, their daughter also began practicing Dafa. Because she cultivated Dafa, their daughter was more sensible than other children, beautiful and intelligent. After graduating from college and getting married, she moved abroad with her husband. In short, their whole family truly benefited greatly from Dafa. Their hearts are filled with sunshine, and they live in harmony.

There were four practitioners at our workplace, all of whom obtained the Fa before July 20, 1999. During these 27 years of bloody persecution, we formed a small group and steadfastly walked the path of Fa-rectification cultivation that Master arranged for us. Although we all experienced house raids, brainwashing sessions, administrative detention, criminal detention, forced labor, and imprisonment—some had part of their pensions stripped away, while others had their entire pensions taken—our hearts are still filled with sunshine. We have Dafa in our hearts! We have Master!
