(Minghui.org) I began to practice Falun Dafa in 2002. Back then, my husband supported me very much despite the Chinese Communist Party’s persecution of Dafa. He often rode a bike to take me to pick up Dafa informational materials from other practitioners for distribution. When I talked to people face to face about Dafa, he also helped me.
I was arrested in 2012 while distributing materials exposing the persecution of Dafa. I was given one year of forced labor. When I was released, I found my husband was mentally unstable. His face was dark and he often sang things that didn’t make sense to me. The police came from time to time to harass me, which further aggravated his condition.
My husband told me that he was very scared when I was detained, and he burned all of my Dafa books and informational materials. He also cursed Master and Dafa. In fact, he knew that Dafa was good, but he was just too afraid of the persecution.
His health began to decline at that point. His condition further worsened from the beginning of this year. He couldn’t eat, especially meat. He constantly felt nauseous and vomited blood. He had a lung condition that was developed while working in a mine, which relapsed, and he had difficulty breathing. He always wore a bitter face due to the physical suffering.
I knew that his condition was probably caused by his disrespect for Dafa, and I shared my thoughts with him. I said that he witnessed how Dafa gave me good health and improved my character. It was the Chinese Communist Party that put me in the labor camp and inflicted harm on us, so we shouldn’t blame Dafa for the suffering. I urged him to write a statement to repent his mistake, and he agreed.
He told me that he felt much better the next morning. I told him more about Dafa. I said that Dafa is a Buddha school spiritual cultivation way. We Dafa practitioners are looked after by the divine and we need to respect and show our gratitude for the divine. I told him stories of people receiving karmic retribution for destroying Buddha statues, hoping he could see the connection behind things. He understood.
From then on, my husband made rapid progress and he became healthy again. He believed that Dafa saved his life. He now often has a smile on his face again. The kind and upright man I knew before is now back. I’m truly grateful for Master’s compassion.
