After I started to practice Falun Gong, Teacher not only extended my life, but also gave me a healthy body. When I ran into my friends and relatives, many of them asked: "What kind of supplements did you take? The older you get, the healthier you look!" Many people say that I look like I'm in my 60s. Actually I am almost 80 years old. However, I have very few age spots, and my facial complexion is very healthy. My eyes and ears are keen and sharp, and my movement is light and fast.
Teacher bestowed all these things upon me in order to let me do the three things well. I use the state of my healthy body as an example to show people that I have benefited from Dafa. If the situation allows, I clarify the truth to them and persuade them to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its related organizations. If not, I say that I would tell them my secret to being healthy later and then make an appointment for another time to explain to them the facts about Falun Gong.
Among the people that I have clarified the truth to, more than 10 have since become Falun Dafa practitioners. One of them is an almost 60-year-old worker. He had a hot temper and often quarreled with others. He also liked drinking and had many illnesses. After he started to practice Falun Gong, his hot temper changed, and he quit drinking. His illnesses have all disappeared. People say that practicing Falun Gong has turned him into a new person.
A woman in her 40s had a disease that seemingly couldn't be cured. She tried Chinese and western medical treatment for a long time, but neither was effective. She often could not eat or sleep well, and she could not do anything about it. One day she found me and asked me, "Can I study Falun Gong?"
I used my own experience to tell her about the greatness and miraculousness of Dafa. She quickly quit the CCP and started to practice Falun Gong. Soon after, all of her illnesses disappeared. Her body became strong and healthy. At present, not only does she cultivate Dafa, but her family members have also begun to practice. She also explained the facts about Falun Gong to people around her and told them that Falun Dafa is good!
I obtained the Fa before I retired. The last time I went to work, one of my colleagues who had a very good relationship with me invited me to his home for dinner. I saw a new book entitled Zhuan Falun in his home and really got into it after I started reading it. My colleague saw that I liked the book and told me, "If you really like the book, I will give it to you as a gift!" I felt that I had found a treasure. I immediately put the book in my bag. I had never heard of Falun Gong before. I went home and finished reading Zhuan Falun in two days. I felt everything in the book was the truth, and the book solved many mysteries that I had not understood all my life. I made up my mind at that time to cultivate Falun Dafa.
With my colleague's help, I found other practitioners in my local area. I then started to participate in the group Fa-study and group exercises. When I look back, I realize that Teacher arranged everything for me.
Before I started to practice Falun Gong, I did many bad things without knowing it under the influence of the CCP. I constantly sought fame and fortune, and could not sleep or eat well, which resulted in many illnesses.
Less than three months after I started practicing Falun Gong, all my diseases disappeared. During the past 14 years since then, I have never gone to the hospital and have not taken any medicine. I truly feel the happiness of being illness-free. I also believe that if I had not found the Fa, if Teacher had not mercifully saved me, I certainly would have already died.
When the Chinese communist regime started to persecute Falun Dafa, CCP officials illegally arrested me, forced me to attend a brainwashing session and tried to "transform" me. They asked me, "Why do you practice Falun Gong?" I answered: "Falun Dafa is good! Falun Dafa gave me a healthy body." Then I wrote down all the illnesses I had before practicing Falun Gong, such as a duodenal ulcer, swollen liver, cervical vertebra proliferation, excessively slow heartbeat, decreased blood platelet count, neurasthenia, insomnia, joint swelling and pain, tinnitus, snail fever, and so on. I also attached the major hospitals' examination reports and sent them altogether to the 610 Office.
The CCP soon persecuted me even more brutally. They sent people to watch me every day. They threatened me to not practice the exercises or say that Falun Dafa is good. In this difficult environment, I could not attend the group Fa-study and group exercises anymore. I had to study the Fa and practice the exercises alone. During the past 11 years of persecution, I have been arrested and taken to a brainwashing facility twice. However, with Teacher's protection and my pure heart believing in Teacher and the Fa, I walked out safely and righteously continued on the path of cultivation.
