Doing the Work of Three People Instead of Dying from Breast Cancer

Sept. 19, 2012 |   By Mu Lianhua, a Falun Dafa practitioner

(Minghui.org) I am a 51-year-old white collar worker in China. Since 1996, it has been 16 years since I stepped into the practice of Falun Dafa. I had thought that practicing the Buddha Fa was something unattainable for an ordinary person, but after practicing Falun Dafa, I felt so fortunate. I experienced many surprises and miracles, such as returning to good health, elevating my mind, harmony in my family, and my wisdom was opened. The only thing that comes to mind is that this was the result of the “immense Buddha grace.”

Cured of Great Suffering and Taking on a Three-Person Job

In the summer of 1993, at the age of 32 years, I was diagnosed with second stage breast cancer. My child was four years old. I was terrified, wondering why I deserved this tribulation. I checked into a hospital for surgery, went on a chemotherapy protocol and started to take Chinese medicine.

One doctor told me that cancer was more dangerous for a young person, so I had to undergo more intense chemotherapy. The chemo took its toll. I could not work for two years. A supervisor in another department who thought well of me had me transfer to his department. He told others, “Let's ease her load, even if it is just half of what others do.”

In 1996, I came across Falun Dafa and stepped into the practice. I understood clearly my fate, given this incurable disease, but after reading Zhuan Falun, I learned that there were two ways to change one's fate. In my heart I knew that my only hope was to cultivate.

At the time, Falun Dafa was not banned and so there were exercise sites everywhere. I watched Teacher's lecture tapes and learned the exercises. Within a short time, my physical condition changed for the better and I became stronger and more energetic. Before, when I rode my bike to work, the elderly and children could easily pass me and now, I pass them easily.

Chemo had made my face look bluish pale. The Chinese medicine I took contained some toxic herbs and I suffered severe constipation. I suffered a lot of side effects from the medication, including a scratchy, sore throat, and swallowing was painful. Soon I became healthy and my facial complexion was pink and glowing. My friends were very impressed and couldn't hide their surprise.

After practicing Falun Dafa, when tasks were assigned I was often given a two-person task, or at times a three-person job because we were short of manpower. I completed each task well, without complaining and without feeling tired.

My coworkers and supervisor couldn't believe their eyes when comparing me to the time before I practiced Falun Dafa. They witnessed a Falun Dafa miracle.

Fear of Dying Disappeared

Surgeries and chemo had pushed me to the limits of physical life. I lived in deep fear of dying and was desperate. Another patient in her 30s that was diagnosed with breast cancer relapsed two years after surgery. She died within a few months, leaving a 6-year-old child behind. The question I asked the most was “how long do I have left,” worrying about my child.

It took some time to let go of the fear dying after practicing Falun Dafa. I finally understood that the soul does not die and that all of mankind came from heaven and could go back through cultivation. Cultivation taught me that there was nothing to be afraid of.

At times I did come down with some sickness karma, such as fevers and a runny nose, but I never checked into a hospital. Infection of the surgical incision happened frequently before I practiced Falun Dafa, but only occurred twice, coupled with a high fever, after stepping into the practice. I went to work as usual, because this was no more than Teacher purifying my body.

It's been 16 years since I began to practice Falun Dafa. I've never had to go on sick leave, I no longer have medical expenses, and I have let go of the fear of dying.

Letting Go of Anger

I was irritable from the time when I was little and always fought tooth and nail with others. When I was in middle school and college, I scolded my classmates until they cried. After I moved to a large city to work, I had to hide my anger from others. People said that I was a nice person, but I knew otherwise. I was presenting a false image. After practicing Falun Dafa for a while I could let go of my anger.

I began to understand not to get involved in others' fights, because I didn't know if this was because the person was receiving payback from bad things committed in a prior life. I explained this to my brother and told him not to fight with his wife.

Before I became a practitioner, I often argued with my husband. Recently we had a fight and after arguing with him for a short time, I realized that I was a practitioner. Then, I burst into laughter and the anger disappeared. I did not want to argue at all.

Several times when someone was rude, I became very angry. Within a few minutes I could let go of my anger and then after some time I no longer got angry.

There is no one in my life that I hate or get angry with. Now, my health is restored and I'm in a good mood and get along well with people. Practicing Falun Dafa is so wonderful.

Falun Dafa Is Wonderful

After I benefited from practicing Falun Dafa, I hoped others would also learn such a good practice. I was so excited and talked about Falun Dafa to everyone. I told them how I changed and the principles from the Falun Dafa books that I had enlightened to. People around me could not understand my behavior and told me that I was too much into Falun Dafa. It took some time for me to realize that I should not lead others to believe that practitioners are eccentric.

I clarified the facts of the persecution of Falun Dafa to people I met. I spoke of the beauty of Falun Dafa and helped them quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliates, so that they would be safe and have a good future. My relatives and friends benefited from quitting the CCP and its affiliates and experienced many miracles. For example, one who was in critical health condition recovered miraculously, the risky surgery of another went amazingly well, and someone that had tried to get pregnant finally succeeded. Many called me to tell me of their good fortune. For me that showed that Falun Dafa is marvelous and Teacher is so compassionate and magnificent.
