(Minghui.org) On the occasion of the Chinese New Year, supporters of Falun Dafa all across China have sent in their best wishes to Mr. Li Hongzhi for a happy holiday!
After Mr. Li introduced Falun Dafa to the public 29 years ago, untold numbers of people started to learn it and embarked on a journey to return to their true selves. Due to Falun Dafa's increasing popularity, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) launched a nationwide campaign to wipe out the practice in July 1999. Despite the persecution, Falun Dafa practitioners have been persistently exposing the illegality of the persecution and urging people to sever ties with the CCP to avoid being held responsible when the CCP is brought to justice for its crimes.
Many people have heeded practitioners' advice and quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations. Their support for Falun Dafa has, in turn, brought them blessings, with their health restored or dangers averted.
A Hotel Chef in Jingzhou County, Hunan Province
I am a chef in a hotel in Jingzhou County, Hunan Province. I've always hung a Minghui calendar with about Falun Dafa in the most prominent place in my living room all these years. Many of my guests, both relatives and friends, have come to understand the truth about Falun Dafa after reading the calendar.
I often read uncensored news on my phone by using an app that circumvents the CCP's information firewall. My boss also knows a lot about Falun Dafa and he often discusses the uncensored news with me. Even though the entire hotel industry is struggling during the pandemic, my boss is able to keep us on his payroll and pay us well.
My wife said to our son, “Your dad has a well-paying job at the hotel, which is doing really well, all thanks to blessings from Falun Dafa. I hope you can learn more about Dafa so you can be blessed, too.” Our son, a middle-schooler, answered without hesitation that he would. He said, “The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Let's wish Master Li a happy New Year!”
I believe that Falun Dafa can rectify people's hearts and that the universal values of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance can bring mankind a beautiful future.
Once again, my whole family and I wish Master Li a Happy Chinese New Year!
A Stroke Patient in Zhucheng City, Shandong Province
I was driving past Wanjiazhuang Hospital on the morning of October 9, 2018, when my arms suddenly became numb and my throat felt dry. I immediately pulled over and went into the hospital. It just so happened that my doctor friend was assigned to treat me. He found that I had cerebrovascular blockage and immediately called in an ambulance to transfer me to Zhucheng City People's Hospital. He also notified my family.
The doctor who came with the ambulance happened to be another old friend. He said that the critical time for people in my condition was usually only four hours and that missing that window of opportunity would be dangerous. He called the hospital to make arrangements while we were enroute. As soon as we arrived, I was taken to the operation room without delay.
I was told that the surgery went well. After I woke up from the anesthesia, I heard people wailing in my hospital room. It turned out that one of the other patients in my room, a 32-year-old man with a similar condition, had just died because treatment had been delayed. His parents were devastated. Other patients in the room kept commenting how blessed I was.
I indeed felt I was so fortunate to have been treated so quickly. Why was I so blessed? I suddenly remembered what a Falun Dafa practitioner said to me, “If you are good to Falun Dafa , you'll be blessed.” I read Falun Dafa materials all the time and identify with its principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. I knew right away that Master Li had saved my life.
I thank Falun Dafa and Master Li! I wish Master Li a Happy Chinese New Year!
A Grandfather in Zhucheng City, Shandong Province
I went to pick up my grandson at 11 a.m. on September 10, 2019. While waiting on my tricycle outside the school, I suddenly felt my right leg losing strength and becoming very weak. I realized this could be a warning sign of a stroke ,so I kept reciting “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
My grandson ran to me and I walked the tricycle home. As I was approaching my house, I saw a relative standing outside the door. I didn't want her to notice anything was wrong with me, so I prayed to Master Li to enable me to ride my tricycle. I hopped on my tricycle and was indeed able to pedal home.
I was also able to invite the relative inside and talk to her for a while. Not long after she left, my daughter-in-law returned from work. I told her what had happened to me and she immediately called in a village doctor. The doctor said it was a stroke. He gave me a session of acupuncture and then urged me to go to the hospital.
My son, who had come home by then, carried me on his electric bike to the local hospital. The hospital urged us to go to a bigger hospital and asked us if we wanted to wait for the ambulance to come or go there by ourselves. My son said we'd go there ourselves. As soon as we walked out of the hospital, a taxi stopped in front of us. We hopped in and got to the bigger hospital. A nurse was changing the sheets and ready for my arrival. I was treated right away without any delay. I kept reciting “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” in the hospital, too.
I was allowed to go home temporarily on September 13 to celebrate the Mid-autumn Festival with my family. I then returned to the hospital for a few days before being discharged on the 17th.
I thank Master Li for saving me. I wish Master Li a Happy Chinese New Year!
A Senior in Pingyuan County, Shandong Province
I have family members who practice Falun Dafa. I've always supported them and once even went out with them to distribute Falun Dafa materials.
One day at work I fell off a ladder more than three meters tall. My boss rushed me to the hospital and the doctor found several broken vertebrae . Both of them wanted me hospitalized but I declined.
Upon returning home, I listened to Master Li's audio lectures and recited “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” all the time. I didn't take any medicine. In about three weeks, I, a man in his 60s, was able to get out of bed and walk around.
I could feel Master's immense compassion. Thank you, Master! Happy Chinese New Year!
12 People in One Family in Liuhe County, Jilin Province
Only one of us practices Falun Dafa, but we've all quit the CCP and often recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” We have been healthy and happy, get along well as a family, and have prosperous careers.
We long for Master Li's return to China. We miss Master Li! Thank you!
A Former Colon Cancer Patient in Zhaoyuan City, Shandong Province
I've been in remission since I had a surgery for colon cancer. I recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” all the time and my annual examination results are normal year after year. I know that Master Li has given me a second life and I'll never forget it.
Elderly Sisters in Santai County, Sichuan Province
I am 82 and my sister is 77. Both of us suffered from poor health since we were young. My sister later started to practice Falun Dafa. When she returned to our hometown to visit me in 2003, she played Master Li's audio lectures for me and also gave me amulets with Falun Dafa messages on them. I carry the amulets with me everywhere I go and recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” every day.
Like my sister, I've also become healthy. I thank Master Li for his blessings!
We wish Master Li a Happy Chinese New Year!
15 People from One Extended Family in Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province
We have three sisters who have suffered tremendously for upholding their faith in Falun Dafa. Though the rest of us are not Falun Dafa practitioners, we've also endured a lot as their family members. Despite that, we have no complaints about our sisters.
We understand that they are walking on a very righteous path. If it were not for their perseverance and firm belief in Dafa, they would not have made it through the two decades of persecution. We have only admiration for them. We see that they've become healthy and better people. Even though we don't practice Falun Dafa, we've also been blessed with good health and happy lives.
We look forward to the day when there is justice for Falun Dafa and Master returns to China. We will forever remember “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
Survivor of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning in Zhucheng City, Shandong Province
I am 59. Four years ago, I was home alone one night when I was felled with carbon monoxide poisoning. My husband discovered me lying stiff in bed when he finished his night shift the next morning. I showed no signs of life.
He called my parents and sister. My sister insisted that I still be taken to the hospital. I woke up even before the ambulance reached the hospital. Everyone was thrilled to see me come to.
Before the incident, I had often read Falun Dafa materials and quit the CCP. My experience showed Falun Dafa's extraordinary power. I thank Master Li for saving me and I wish Master a Happy Chinese New Year.
A Son-in-law in Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province
My mother-in-law has been practicing Falun Dafa for more than 20 years. I've see from her how wonderful Falun Dafa is. I've quit the CCP and often defended Falun Dafa. I respect and take good care of my mother-in-law. As a result, I've been blessed. My Hepatitis B was cured and my son was admitted to a prestigious high school. My wife followed in her mother's footstep and became a Falun Dafa practitioner, too. Our whole family has become more harmonious.
As the coronavirus pandemic ravages the country, my city has been hit hard. Our whole family, though, feels safe because we believe we'll be blessed by Master Li. We urge people to quit the CCP and recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” so they would be blessed, too.
A Husband in Pingdu City, Shandong Province
Ever since my wife started practicing Falun Dafa, both she and I have become healthy. My inflamed gall bladder healed and I experienced the wonderfulness of Falun Dafa myself. Even though I am not a practitioner, Master Li has saved me from death on two occasions. My wife, our child, and I have not needed to take any medicines in the past two decades. We thank Master for blessing us with good health.
Young Parents in Jiaozhou City, Shandong Province
Our child had a rash and high fever when he was five months old. We gave him too much fever medicine by mistake, and his temperature kept falling. His maternal grandmother, who is a Falun Dafa practitioner, urged us to recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” We heeded her advice and our son's temperature raised returned to normal. His rash later disappeared, too. We thank Master for saving our baby!
Survivor of Incurable Disease in Zhucheng City, Shandong Province
I developed an incurable disease in 2013 and no hospital was able to help me. I was ready to face my fate. Then a Falun Dafa practitioner came to visit me and played Master's audio lectures to me. I escaped death and have been healthy ever since.
The few patients who were in the hospital with me have all passed awayover the past seven years. As the only survivor, I thank Master for giving me a second life. I wish Master Li a Happy Chinese New Year.
