(Minghui.org) I began practicing Falun Dafa more than 20 years ago, and I’m now 68. A few days ago, a practitioner took me on her bicycle to another practitioner’s home who was ill to read the Fa and send forth righteous thoughts. The road was bumpy and my back hurt after I got home. I didn’t take it seriously but the pain intensified. I couldn’t do the Falun Dafa exercises for several days.

My family was worried that I had a relapse of my herniated disc. The pain continued for more than ten days. I felt impatient because studying the Fa while lying in bed was disrespectful to Master. I asked Master in my heart to help me.

One morning, I thought of Master’s teaching,

“Your body lies in prison—don’t be sorrowful, don’t be sadWith righteous thoughts and righteous actions, Fa is hereCalmly reflect on how many attachments you haveAs you get rid of human mentality, evil is naturally defeated” (“Don’t Be Sad,” Hong Yin II)

I started looking inward for my attachments. I found some, but I didn’t feel I found the main one.

I realized that I was lazy in doing the morning exercises. After the alarm clock rang, I usually turned it off and went back to sleep. I got up an hour later and did a few sets of exercises and sent forth righteous thoughts. It was then already time to cook breakfast. I sometimes I did the exercises at night, but sometimes I didn’t. I felt doing the second exercise was exhausting so I sometimes skipped it.

Cultivation requires diligence and enduring hardship. The attachment to comfort is dangerous, and the old forces may take advantage of our loopholes.

After I had this realization I immediately sat up and meditated for one hour. I put a pillow behind me to support my waist and back, and I endured the pain. After I finished meditating and stood up, the pain was gone. I had no trouble standing or walking. My family once again witnessed how amazing Falun Dafa is. Thank you Master!

When we face tribulations, we cannot treat them as an everyday person’s troubles or think we are sick. Master is in charge of everything. Our body is transforming into a divine body and is made of high-energy matter. How can we still have “diseases?”
