(Minghui.org) I'm a chief physician of internal medicine and have practiced medicine for more than thirty years. Ever since I started working, every day I have been occupied with examining patients and prescribing medications. Who could imagine that I, too, also struggled with painful illnesses?
I've had a strange disease since childhood which resulted in my developing a fever two or three times per year without a clear reason. Each time, I needed several days of infusions and antibiotics. Even after I became a doctor, my condition never improved. As a teenager, I started to suffer from angioneurotic headaches and had to avoid exposure to sunlight. If I went outside to work or do something else, once home I was dependent on painkillers, which I bought bottle after bottle. In addition, I also had arthritis, and the pain in my joints and muscles did not give me even a day of comfort. Severe motion sickness limited my travel. To treat these conditions, I tried everything from Eastern and Western medicine to qigong. I even had melissotherapy, a treatment using bee venom to treat my affected joint. Instead of getting better, I had a high fever for three days, and my joints hurt even more. At the time I asked myself about major questions about life, such as, where do human beings come from, and where do they go? Why do humans suffer? Science is so advanced nowadays; with so much high-precision medical equipment, why do humans still suffer from so many illnesses? And why is it that the more we cure, the more diseases appear? The ever-increasing number of doctors and hospital beds still can't satisfy the public's need for healthcare. Also, there are still so many incurable diseases. Even common headaches, arthritis, asthma, and chronic pharyngitis can't be eliminated from the root. Why?
My sister gave me a copy of the book Zhuan Falun in 1996. At the time, I didn't have much hope of being cured, and only casually read a little bit of it. I didn't see much and only learned that the book teaches people how to be good and not do bad deeds. Before I could finish the book or learn the exercises, disaster struck. My husband developed a major illness and was hospitalized. As a result, I became extremely busy. I had to work and take care of my husband and my child, who was in high school. Thus, the precious book went untouched in my home for nearly two years, until May 1998, when I rejoined the ranks of Falun Gong cultivators for the purpose of curing my illnesses.
I didn't have any attachment of pursuit and at first didn't expect that Falun Gong could heal me. I just studied the Fa whenever I had time, and took part in group exercises every day. Through continued study, I gradually understood that Falun Dafa is the Buddha Fa, Falun Dafa teaches people to cultivate, and there is nothing that the Buddha Fa cannot do. The answers to all my questions could be found in Falun Gong. I subsequently strictly followed the xinxing standard that Dafa set forth in everything I did. I required myself “not to strike back when beaten and not to swear back when sworn at,” to be considerate of others no matter what I did, to look inward for the reason whenever a problem occurs, to cultivate my xinxing, and to guard my virtue. Little by little I realized that my head no longer hurt, and neither did my joints. It now feels like I'm walking on air, my legs feel so light. My entire body feels relaxed. In the past, I was always thin and weak, but I now have a good appetite. I am 160cm (5' 3”) tall, and my weight has increased from 100 to 140 pounds. I have truly experienced the lightness of being free of illness.
After I starting cultivating, I had a few severe bouts of motion sickness before they suddenly disappeared. In the past, I vomitted even on a five-mile bus journey. Now, on a thousand-mile trip I feel comfortable and at home. In all these years, I've never had another fever. Of course, along the way I had to pass several big tests involving illness karma. Guided by high-level Fa, I didn't take even one pill, and very soon the illness symptoms disappeared.
If you want good health, safety, and longevity, please read Zhuan Falun. If you calmly get to know Falun Gong, you will find pleasant surprises.
