(Minghui.org) On the following morning, a doctor called me to his office. He showed me the results. He said that my husband's brain was injured and needed surgery. Moreover, several of his ribs were broken, his right foot and right hand were fractured, his pelvis was fractured, and four vertebra in his back were compressed and overlapped. For an older man in his sixties with injuries as the doctor described, even if my husband survived, he would lie in bed in a coma for the rest of his life. Mr. Liang said again, “I think you should consider what I said yesterday. You should let me know how much money you want and we will get things done as soon as possible . In that case, everyone will feel relaxed!” I smiled and said, “Please rest assured. He will be alright. Isn't there a saying, 'The good will be rewarded with goodness, and good people will be peaceful for their entire lives?'” The doctor looked at me and froze. Mr. Liang shook his head again.

One story about something that happened to me was well-known among people around me. It unlocked their confusion and helped them distinguish between good and evil. I would like to share it with fellow practitioners and again express my reverence for Teacher's saving grace.
On the afternoon of August 31, 2000, my husband set off with our daughter while I took our grandson to the bus station. On his way back home, when he was walking in the middle of the road, a car suddenly screeched to a halt. I picked up my grandson and pushed through the crowd to see my husband lying in a pool of blood. My daughter cried and pulled at him. Someone reported it to the police as a major car accident. Traffic police and an ambulance came after a while. My husband was taken to the city emergency center.
I took my grandson to his grandmother's home. It was dark outside when I arrived at the hospital. The driver was a young man who had been speeding when he hit my husband. The driver's boss was Taiwanese and had authorized Mr. Liang to deal with the problem. I saw my husband wrapped in bandages, connected to an oxygen cylinder, and hooked up to an IV drip. His eyes were tightly closed. Mr. Liang asked me to come outside of the room and said in a low voice, “Sister, we are very sorry. He is very badly injured. The driver will be punished, however your husband is very old, and just like an 'old machine'. This 'old machine' has fallen apart and is broken. It's impossible to repair it. The doctors also told me that he is dying. How about this? Our boss asked that you name a price for compensation.” My mind was a complete blank at that moment. Upon hearing what Mr. Liang said, a thought surfaced in my mind, “I am a practitioner!” I told him, “I will not ask for money. I know he will be alright.”
Mr. Liang stared at me for a while and shook his head, “My boss has promised to give you money. Why are you so honest? It's...”
I sat there dumbfounded overnight feeling very worried. I started practicing Falun Dafa in October 1996 and had experienced many miraculous things. My illnesses had all disappeared. Since obtaining the Fa, I have had a firm belief in Teacher's every word. I practiced the exercises and joined in group Fa study every morning and evening. I often participated in Fa conferences, activities, and events to spread the Fa. For the convenience of the elderly, I set up a practice site in the community, and more and more people joined us. We practiced the exercises, studied the Fa, and watched Teacher's Fa lecture videos together. My husband worked in another city. When he returned during holidays, he witnessed my physical change, and he started practicing Falun Dafa. We often helped each other and improved together in cultivation.
Falun Dafa has been widely spread and has elevated the social morality. However, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) under Jiang Zemin initiated a brutal crackdown of Falun Gong. They persecuted kind people and fabricated many lies about Falun Gong. Practitioners went to the city government to appeal, but it was in vain. To return innocence to Dafa and Teacher, we went to Beijing to appeal!
In those dark days, my family offered me the greatest support and comfort. They helped me transfer my Dafa books and truth clarifying materials when the police ransacked my home. My daughter took Dafa books to her office. My husband told everyone that Falun Gong had no fault, and that every word in Falun Dafa books was good, and that Teacher is great! We never watched TV and we ignored the lies! When I was detained in Beijing, my family tried with great effort to visit me. On the day of my release, my husband called a tricycle to pick me up. He shouted loudly at any acquaintance on the street as we passed by.
That night in the hospital I constantly recited Teacher's Fa,
“What is owed must be paid for. Therefore, some dangerous things may occur in the course of cultivation practice. When these things take place, however, you will not be scared, and neither will real danger be allowed to happen to you.”
“There are so many of these cases that they cannot be numbered. Yet no danger has occurred. Not everyone will encounter these kinds of things, but some individuals will run into them. Whether you come across them or not, I can assure you that you will not be in any danger—I can guarantee this.” (Zhuan Falun)
I had tears in my eyes many times, and said to Teacher, “Compassionate Master, your disciple will definitely follow your teachings!”
A doctor called me to his office on the following morning. He showed me the test results. He said that my husband's brain was injured and needed surgery. Moreover, several of his ribs were broken, his right foot and right hand were fractured, his pelvis was fractured, and four of his back vertebrae were compressed and overlapped. For an older man in his sixties, with the injuries that the doctor described, even if my husband survived, he would lie in bed in a coma for the rest of his life.
Mr. Liang said again, “I think you should consider what I said yesterday. You should let me know how much money you want and we will get things done as soon as possible. In that case, everyone will feel relaxed!” I smiled and said, “Please rest assured. He will be alright. Isn't there a saying, 'The good will be rewarded with goodness, and good people will be peaceful for their entire lives?'” The doctor looked at me and froze. Mr. Liang shook his head again.
One week later I declined the special care ward. Doctors and nurses all agreed with my treatment, that is, let him recover through tranquility. I moved a television, a video player, Dafa DVDs, and Dafa books into the small room and locked the door and windows (except one window facing the garden). From then on, this small room was bathed in the Buddha light. Fellow practitioners gave us great support. We studied the Fa, practiced exercises, and shared cultivation experiences together in this room. We often clarified the truth in the hospital hallways, and distributed truth clarifying materials to doctor's offices and wards. My husband listened to the Fa and watched Teacher's lecture videos every day. Whenever he could move a little, he tried to practice exercises and sit in meditation. He recovered very quickly.
More than four months later, we asked to check out of the hospital. The examination showed that my husband was alright except that his fractured right forefinger was a bit crooked. Moreover, some diseases due to injuries at work, like lumbar pain, lumbar bone proliferation, and leg pain had all disappeared. His back was straight and he looked more energetic than ever. One doctor said “miraculous” again and again when he witnessed this patient who had recovered completely without any surgery, traction, bone correction, or medical treatment. He said, “I've never seen a patient who has been in a bed for so long without developing bed sores!”
I found an opportunity to tell the doctor that we witnessed such a miracle today because we practiced Falun Gong and completely believed what our Teacher taught. I told him, “All reports on TV are forged lies, including the 1400 cases that defamed Falun Gong and instigated people to develop hatred towards Falun Gong. Jiang Zemin was determined to eliminate Falun Gong. Don't believe it.” The doctor said, “The miracle is right in front of me. I certainly know whom I should believe.”
Mr. Liang was the person who was surprised most. When he checked out, the bill didn't show any expensive cost for surgery or medicine, but only a small amount of money for examinations and beds. When he heard about the truth, he didn't shake his head this time but constantly nodded. I thought of Teacher's Fa,
“The driver indeed drove the car too fast, but how could he possibly hit someone on purpose? Didn’t he do it unintentionally?” (Zhuan Falun)
I asked him to forward my words to his boss, “It's all because of Teacher's compassion to sentient beings.”
The Chinese New Year arrived soon after we returned home from hospital. I called my son who worked in a remote area and hadn't been back home for three years. I said, “Your dad was in a big car accident. Can you come back home?” Though during holidays he was busier than ever, this time he broke the rule. My husband went to the railway station to pick him up. As soon as they arrived at home carrying the luggage, my son couldn't wait and pulled me to a corner, “Mom, you were not wrong asking me to come back for Chinese New Year, but you shouldn't use dad's being in a car accident as an excuse. My dad is alright. Isn't what you said an exaggeration?”
I said, “My son, don't you remember your mother believes in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and never tells a lie?” I handed him the big bag hanging behind the door and said, “Take a look for yourself!” My son carefully reviewed all the records and documents, including the details of the examinations. He said, “It's unimaginable! My dad looks younger and more energetic than ever!” I told him, “Teacher saved your dad and saved our entire family!” I burst into tears and told him about Teacher's immense compassion, Teacher's tremendous efforts in saving sentient beings, and Teacher's sufferings. And Teacher is now still suffering huge injustice.
It's true! Even after we exhausted all the words in this human world, we still couldn't express our firm belief in Teacher and Dafa. Words cannot express our praise for great Teacher! Teacher pulled us out of hell, purified us, and suffered tremendous pain. We will never know how much Teacher suffered for us.
As a Dafa disciple, what I can do is only to follow Teacher closely in Fa-rectification, cultivate as diligently as at the beginning, do the three things well, and complete my mission of assisting Teacher in Fa-rectification!
One again, I kneel down to revere Teacher's saving grace!
