Falun Dafa Saved My Family

(Minghui.org) I am so grateful for Master's great mercy. Without Master's Dafa, my family would have been broken.

This is the story of my family.

Back in the 90s, my father was away from home because he could not pay off the debt he owed in his hometown. My mother was in very poor health, and my grandmother was bedridden due to illness. I was in school. Neighbors and relatives all shook their heads when they learned of our situation. My mother suffered the most. She was physically and mentally exhausted. She felt so miserable that sometimes she wanted to end her life. Some relatives even advised my mother to divorce and remarry.

One day at the end of 1998, my mother was outside drying comforters and she saw somebody doing qigong exercises nearby. She was told that it was Falun Gong and she started to learn it. Other practitioners warm-heartedly taught her the exercises and gave her a copy of the book Zhuan Falun. My mother turned to the first page, saw Master's photo, and broke into tears. She does not read well, so she waited for me to come back from school. As soon as I got home, she eagerly told me that this was a Falun Gong book and she asked me to teach her to read. She and I started practicing Dafa. After a period of time, all four illnesses my mother had suffered for a long period of time disappeared. Along with the improvement in her physical condition, she also benefited spiritually. She looked like a new person. I had rhinitis myself and that disappeared too after doing the Falun Gong exercises. I followed the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and read the book and did the exercises almost every day. My xinxing was raised. I knew I needed to be a good person, and a better person. Once my classmate and I found 40 yuan on the floor and he wanted to split it with me. I remembered I was a practitioner and should not take money which is not mine. So I advised my classmate to return the money to the owner. At home, I tried to share my mother's workload and help out with the chores whenever I could.

At that time, my grandmother had been bedridden for years. Her mouth was swollen and crooked. Almost every day she relied on infusions and it added a big burden to the family. Miraculously, because my mother and I often did the exercises next to her bed and we let her to listen to Master's lectures, my grandmother's mouth returned to normal and she did not need the infusions anymore. One day my uncle came to visit and said surprisingly: "Look, mom's mouth is not crooked anymore!" We told him about Dafa. He highly praised Falun Gong after reading the book.

After July 20, 1999, my mother and I were arrested for doing the exercises outside. Although we kept telling them we did not do anything against the law, I was illegally detained and my mother was sent to a forced labor camp. My uncle had to take my grandma to his home. When doctors were doing the physical exam for my grandma, they were amazed at how all the age spots disappeared from her body. She was 96 at that time.

Reciting "Falun Dafa is Good", My Father Arose from the Dead

After my mother returned from the labor camp, my very ill father returned home.

I hadn't seen him for years. He was short of breath and had severe edema. We took him to the hospital but his condition showed no signs of improvement after medical treatment. Neighbors and relatives felt there was no hope for him. Many of them were afraid to be infected and did not want to visit us anymore. My father had no insurance. The neighborhood committee was planning to call for a donation for our family.

My mother and I did not give up hope, nor did we feel despair. We told my father that he would get well if he recited from his heart “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” every day. We also let him listen to Master's lectures. A few days afterward, the swelling in my father's body started alleviate. So much sweat drained out from his body that the floor became wet and smelly. My mother did not complain and cleaned the floor every day. I also helped. My father started to cry and said he was sorry for having brought troubles to the family. We advised him to start everything anew.

Six months later my father had recovered. My mother told him it was Dafa that saved him. She let go of the past and took care of him because she followed Dafa's principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. My father also said that it was Dafa that brought him back to life.

People were surprised at my father's miraculous recovery. When they congratulated us, some changed their prejudice toward Falun Gong and began to accept that Falun Gong can indeed benefit people's health and morality. One neighbor had severe hemorrhoids and no medicine worked. She tried to recite "Falun Dafa is Good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good". She was much better the very next day. She ran to our home and told my mother about this. My mother was very happy for her and told her that she should recite it often and from her heart. That neighbor said: "I recite every day now, there isn't a day that I don't."

Once when I was abducted and taken to a brainwashing center, the police ordered me to write my "thoughts". I wrote only one sentence: It is Falun Dafa which saved my whole family. This is the absolute truth.
