(Minghui.org) I am a 49-year-old practitioner from Fushun City, Liaoning Province and I live in a rural area. I started practicing Falun Dafa in March 1997. My non-practitioner husband and I were on the verge of death and it was Master who saved our lives. I truly feel that Master's boundless mercy surpasses everything. I took medication for one year after I was diagnosed with breast cancer. When I started practicing Falun Gong the breast tumor just disappeared.
Master cleansed my body when I started practicing. All of my previous illnesses disappeared, I felt energetic, and hope returned to my life. Every morning we went to the town square to do the exercises and every night we participated in group Fa study. We did everything according to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and the requirements of the Fa. We were considerate of others and felt happy each day.
In the morning on July 20, 1999, when I went to do exercises at the town square, I felt something was wrong. A fellow practitioner said, “Let 's go back home. We are no longer allowed to do the Falun Gong exercises.” I asked what had happened and why it was not allowed. I went back home in low spirits. Later, when I turned on the TV, I saw a program slandering Master. Fabricated stories were everywhere. I felt very sad and thought, “Master is so good and Falun Dafa is also very good. Why is it wrong? How could it be wrong when practitioners act according to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance?” This was confusing, and it was a reversal of right and wrong. I went with another practitioner to the county government to tell them that Falun Dafa was the righteous Fa and that Master Li was innocent.
First we visited the county government and then we went to the city government. We were stopped by the local police, and did not have the chance to say anything about Falun Gong.
The persecution became very serious. Many Falun Gong practitioners were arrested, detained, fined, and sentenced to forced labor and prisons. I knew Falun Gong was good, but I was scared. Sometimes I practiced Falun Gong and sometimes I did not. As a result, I was diagnosed with a breast tumor in 2000. I suffered daily from the disease. I had a color ultrasound exam and the doctor was surprised with the result. He said that I should have periodic followups and should seek treatment if I did not feel well.
At home, I took medication, including injections. I became almost poisoned by the medication, and it was not helping. In 2001, I told my sister who was also a practitioner, that I still wanted to practice Falun Gong. My sister said, “Sister, go ahead and practice Falun Gong. If you are a genuine practitioner, Master will take care of you.” I started practicing again. After I started practicing the breast tumor disappeared. I no longer suffered from the disease. Master cleansed my body and I felt energetic and free of disease.
I wanted to tell sentient beings that Falun Dafa was good, that Falun Dafa was the righteous Fa, and that Master was innocent. I distributed truth-clarification materials at night to government buildings and police stations, and delivered materials house to house. Practitioners who had risked their lives to save sentient beings brought the materials. I wanted to tell everyone that there was nothing wrong with Falun Gong. My husband, a non-practitioner, was worried about me, so he gave me a ride on his motorcycle to distribute truth-clarification materials. Later the material sites were destroyed one by one. When there were no materials available, I wrote truth-clarifying phrases on walls, electricity poles, and bridges with chalk so that people could see them very clearly. I did this because I knew that anyone who saw it would have the chance of being saved.
My Husband has a Car Accident, Master Saves his Life
In the winter of 2006, my husband was involved in a hit and run accident when a four-wheeler hit him while he was riding his motorcycle. He was lying on the ground covered in snow for over an hour without help. Finally, a kindhearted bus driver called for help and the vehicle that came to take him to the hospital was used specifically for carrying pigs. The doctor said that my husband was severely injured and had multiple hemorrhages and skull fractures. We were told that there was no hope at all. The people who had taken my husband to the hospital took him to the government building and put him on a concrete floor. When we arrived, there were many people surrounding him.
When I saw that my husband was unconscious. My first thought was of Master. “Master is the only person who can save his life.” I said to myself, “Ask Master for help.” At that moment I believed that a miracle would occur.
We took my husband to the County Second Hospital, which was closer to our home. The doctor performed some tests and said that his head injury was similar to a broken watermelon. He warned us that my husband might die during the operation. Even if he were still alive after the operation, he might be in a permanent vegetative state. I was not moved and still believed that a miracle would happen. Because I had already given my husband's life over to Master, I agreed for my husband to have the craniotomy.
The operation was very successful and he was unconscious after the surgery in the ICU. Three days later he came to. A practitioner came to visit and whispered in his ear: “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” At that time, he could not speak and made unrecognizable sounds. The doctor said he might not be able to speak again. He would have to stay in the hospital for three to five months before he could go home.
In order to save money, he was transferred to a regular ward. My sister and I took turns taking care of him as he listened to Master's lectures. When he was able to speak, the first sentence he said was, “It was Master who saved my life. Otherwise, I would be dead.” At that time, I could not hold back my tears. There are no earthly words to acknowledge Master's mercy in saving my husbands life.
My husband recovered quickly and on the nineteenth day, we applied for his release. We helped him walk down from the second floor. The doctor saw this and said, “I cannot believe it. It is a miracle.”
He did not need further medication after he had used up all the medication he had brought home from the hospital. Every day I read Zhuan Falun to him. He has completely recovered and can do all kinds of work.
Heart Disease Recurs and Master Saves My Life
I have been married for over twenty years. We have two children and life has been very hard. We spent over 30,000 yuan on hospital bills for my husband and most of that was borrowed. When my husband came home, I shouldered the responsibility for the entire family. We could not afford to eat the vegetables we grew because they were sold at the market for cash. During the spring and autumn, I would go to the mountains to get mountain produce to sell. Later I worked at a restaurant. My salary rose from 600 yuan to 900 yuan. Four people had to live on the salary I brought home. Because we had moved, our residential ID documents were for our previous residence, and we did not own any land. We had to buy almost everything we needed.
Last year, in order to earn more money, I worked at a construction area. For almost a year, I did not do the exercises or study the Fa. I became almost the same as an ordinary person and I forgot that I was a cultivator. I did not clarify the truth or save people. I became attached to fame, profit and emotion and did some wrongdoings. Although I was making money, I felt very sad. I felt that I had lost face to Master and that Master did not consider me as his disciple any longer. I did not know whether I could continue to cultivate. I suffered and struggled desperately. I frequently had the thought of committing suicide. I even made arrangements for after I passed away.
On the night of January 3, 2012, a disaster occurred. I suddenly had the symptoms of a heart attack. I heard the beat of my heart in my ear and could not get enough air. I felt smothered and I was black and blue all over. I wondered, “Am I going to die?” Then I said, “No, I do not want to leave Master or Dafa.” I cried out from my the bottom of my heart, “Master, please rescue me. Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
That afternoon, a practitioner came over. I talked to her about my situation. The practitioner said, “Come to my home. Master is very merciful. He will not leave you behind.” She saw that I did not have enough energy to speak or walk, so she drove me to her home to attend the group Fa study. I sat on the bed for a few minutes and when I could no longer sit up, I lay down and tried to listen to them reading the Fa.
The next day, I felt more energetic. A few days later, my face was flush. It was Master's boundless mercy that saved me from the edge of death. While writing, I have been crying. There is no language to express my gratitude towards Master. I can only cultivate diligently and save more people, so that I can pay back Master for his mercy.
