Dafa Rescued Me and My Family

January 17, 2009 |   By a Falun Dafa practitioner from Henan Province

(Clearwisdom.net) First, I would like to thank our benevolent and great Teacher who gave me a second life and protected my whole family! With unparalleled gratitude, I wrote down what I wanted to say most here. I want to help more people with predestined relationships be steadfast in Dafa and experience Teacher's benevolent salvation.

Before I started practicing Falun Gong in April 2004, I had been struggling with several diseases. All my diseases were gone after I practiced Falun Gong. My family also benefited a lot.

My mother lived with my husband, son and me. She was sixty years old. She had been suffering pain in her back and legs since she was twenty. It was hard for her to move around. I am her only child. I was twenty when my father passed away in 1993. Since then, I have been taking care of my mother. In the winter of 2002, I had severe tracheitis and asthma. I had to go every day to a clinic to get a shot. Then I met a Falun Dafa practitioner. She told me that studying Falun Dafa and doing the exercises could help me get healthy and fit. But I did not pay attention. I thought that medication was the real solution. Though I spent quite a lot of money on treatment and medicine, I still coughed and my asthma easily flared up. I was afraid of climbing stairs, nor could I work as a normal person. My family was no longer joyful. Friends, relatives, and neighbors also worried for us. Our already-tight budget became even harder to manage as I had to pay for doctor visits and medicine. What a pain it was! In the spring of 2004, another practitioner clarified the truth to me about Falun Gong. I told my mother about it when I got home. To my surprise, my mother encouraged me to study the Fa and do the exercises. She said firmly, "Go and study it!" With her support, I started studying and exercising. I didn't tell my husband for the first month. Dramatic changes happened to my body and all my diseases were gone. Seeing me become healthy again, my mother, husband and son were all moved to tears. With great gratitude, they said to Teacher's picture, "Thank you Teacher for your benevolent rescue."

I started to have diarrhea when I read to the Third Lecture in Zhuan Falun. I said to myself, "Teacher has started eliminating my karma so quickly." During the toughest time of karma elimination, I had asthma, coughed, and spit out a lot of mucus. I even urinated in my pants and my groans of pain could be heard by my neighbors. There were several times that it was so painful that I could not sleep at all. Then I just listened to Teacher's 9-Day Lecture in Jinan the whole night. Because my husband needed to go to work and my mother needed to be cared for, several practitioners came to my home to care for me and my mother. They also took my son to kindergarten. They were even kinder to us than our relatives.

As I kept studying the Fa and doing the exercises, my body changed dramatically. My xinxing improved, too. My changes gave my former colleagues, friends, relatives, and neighbors a positive impression and understanding of Dafa. My husband could concentrate on his work instead of being worried about me. He often chanted silently "Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance is good!" I clarified the truth of Falun Dafa to a colleague. She truly understood that Dafa is good. She was happy to receive and read truth-clarification materials and even asked her parents-in-law to chant "Falun Dafa is good!" Their family all quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. Now when people ask me about my recovery, I always tell them, "I obtained a healthy body after studying Falun Dafa. It's Teacher and Dafa that saved me and my whole family!"

One of my husband's good friends is a deputy county chief in the province they were from. He came to the capital city of that province to convalesce in the spring of 2006. Afterwards, he came to our home. I clarified the truth to him and told him that Falun Dafa is good, that Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance is good, and that treating Dafa well will be rewarded. I showed him truth-clarification materials. He told me that he worked in the 610 Office and had met many Dafa practitioners. He told them to do the exercises at home for their safety, not to distribute materials on the street, and had never beaten any practitioner. I repeatedly told him to remember the words: "Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance is good!"

My son was born in July 1999. He has become smarter and cuter since I started studying the Fa. He listened to Teacher's Fa lecture before going to bed every day when he was five. Last year he started reading a few pages of Zhuan Falun every day. Then a few days ago, he told me firmly, "After I finish reading through the book this time, I will start reciting the Fa." He likes to use paper currency with truth-clarification messages to buy bus tickets or go shopping.

Thank you Teacher!

Heshi!
