(Minghui.org) Local practitioners have been introducing Falun Dafa and bringing awareness of the persecution in China to the people in Brazil. The following are stories of some of the remarkable things that happened to people who learned Falun Dafa or who showed support.
Large Nasal Polyp Removed Without Surgery
Mauricio is in his 50s and had severe headache on the right side of the brain, tinnitus, and could not open his right eye because of the pain. The doctor said he had a large polyp in the cavity between the ear and the nose, and it had to be removed surgically. Mauricio was afraid of the operation so he opted for a less invasive treatment.
The first time I met Mauricio, I remember talking to him and his family about the persecution of Falun Dafa in China. After signing the petition against the persecution, Mauricio wanted to know more about Dafa and said he was going to research it on the Internet.
The second time I saw Mauricio, he said he liked what he read about Dafa. I explained in more depth about the practice and gave him a copy of the exercise video.
The third time we met, he showed me the thumb-size polyp, which had miraculously come out of his nasal cavity. He said he inhaled one time, and the polyp came out of his mouth. It didn't hurt and there was no blood. He said, “While it happened, I felt something on my face, turning at a very fast speed.” He didn't know what was happening, and I told him that Master got rid of the polyp for him. He said emotionally, “My headache is gone, and I can breathe normally now.” He has been doing the exercises and reading Dafa books since then. He said that Dafa is truly amazing and he wanted to continue to practice.
All of these events happened within about two weeks. Mauricio's doctor said there was no need for surgery since the polyp was already gone. Mauricio said he is gradually changing his human notions as he cultivates.
Supporter of Dafa Experiences Good Fortune
Monica, 40 years old, works at a company, and her job used to involve preparing coffee for everyone there. She is divorced and raises three children on her own. Money was tight for her and she did not look healthy. I met her at a petition drive, and she signed the petition to condemn the persecution. I told her about the wonders of Falun Dafa. She liked what she heard, and thanked me. Shortly thereafter, she was promoted to company receptionist.
After a period of time, she was promoted again to the business department, doing secretarial work. She met her current boyfriend about a year ago, and they are now preparing to get married. Her face is glowing from happiness, she has gained a few healthy pounds, and is making more money. She is also taking classes to learn English and export trading to further advance in her career. Monica told me, “Falun Dafa is truly good. And I will always remember Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
Practitioner Receives the Highest Score on Civil Service Examination
When 30-year-old Paolo began to practice Falun Dafa, there were very few practitioners in his city. He made and distributed Falun Dafa fliers on his own, and established a practice site at a small park. He works very hard to let people know about Falun Dafa. Not long after, he took part in the city's civil service examination, and received the highest score. He was promoted very shortly. This is another example of the improvements and blessings experienced by Falun Dafa practitioners.
Recognizing the Vicious Nature of the Communist Party
I visited my friend, Luis, one day. His wife was wearing a T-shirt with a figurehead of the Communist Party. I shared with them the history of the Communist Party and the crime it has committed. They were both shocked, and the wife said, “I didn't know about this. Thanks for sharing with us.” She changed her shirt and threw that T-shirt away. They both signed the petition to oppose the persecution.
Luis suffered from swelling and pain all over the body, but his health improved significantly after he signed the petition.
Insomnia Gone After Learning the Exercises for a Few Minutes
During the 2013 International Conference on Human Rights, practitioners in Brazil set up a booth to clarify the truth about Falun Dafa, collect signatures for the petition, and teach the exercises. A middle-aged teacher from another state spent a few minutes learning the exercises and hurried into the conference hall.
The next day she showed up very early at our booth and said with excitement, “It's amazing! I've had insomnia for many years, but it was gone last night. I want to practice Falun Dafa. Where can I find the book?” I gave her the information, and she said she would buy the book that same afternoon. She took a copy of the exercise video and left with gratitude.
Chinese People Quit the Communist Party at an International Fair
There was a four-day International Auto Parts Fair at a Brazilian city in April 2014. Several manufacturers from China participated in the fair. The local practitioners went to the fair to encourage the Chinese to quit the Communist Party and its affiliated organizations. After practitioners shared with them about Falun Dafa and the persecution in China, most of the Chinese at the fair agreed to quit the Party and its affiliates, and chose a bright future for themselves.
A young man smiled at me when I talked to him about quitting the Party. He said, “I have already withdrawn from the Party affiliates in China. It is great that Falun Dafa practitioners around the world are encouraging people to quit the Party. And I'm very glad to see you here.” I said to him, “That's great! Please tell your friends to quit the Party when you go back to China.” He replied, “I will call them as soon as I return to China.” He kept the Falun Dafa amulet and the anti-censorship software I gave him.
A gentleman from Taiwan said he didn't know much about Falun Dafa. But after he listened to practitioners talk about the persecution, he said he was against the inhumane persecution and wanted to learn more about Dafa. He showed great interest when he found out practitioners cultivate their hearts and minds in the secular world. He said he wanted to read Dafa books on the Internet.
Master arranged such a wonderful day for us at the fair. Compassionate Master has done everything and given practitioners great abilities. We should be diligent in our cultivation and save more sentient beings.
