(Minghui.org) Before I began practicing Falun Dafa, I suffered from indigestion and my stomach was constantly upset. Medications and injections didn't help, and I lacked energy.
My husband was well known in the village for his bad temper. He easily became irritated and often hit me.
Reborn after Practicing Falun Dafa
Fortunately, I was introduced to and began practicing Falun Dafa in 1996. I read the book Zhuan Falun in one go.
I was excited that I had come across such a good book and felt lucky that I had found such a good teacher and good cultivation practice. I stopped taking medicine after I started to do the exercises. I recovered from all my illnesses. About six months later a tumor as big as a grape was discharged from my body.
After that, I was able to eat any food, cold or hot, soft or hard. I could do any housework, and my husband no longer got upset. Harmony reigned in our family.
Experiencing the Power of Dafa
One winter I did the exercises outdoors without wearing my gloves. My fingers froze and all my nails fell off after my fingers thawed out. But I still did all the household chores. My fingers were very sore at night.
I put up with the pain without saying anything to my family. Six months later new nails had grown and my hands were back to normal.
One day I fell down and could barely breathe. I felt that I was going to die, and I immediately asked Master for help. As soon as I finished saying it, I was back to normal. It was amazing.
One day I had terrible back pain when I was doing the exercises, and then I had pain all over my body and had to lie down. It was really bad. Nobody else was home and I was hoping that another practitioner would come to help me. Sure enough, a practitioner came. She asked me to get up and do the exercises.
I practiced for a short while and was not able to stand anymore, so I lay down. She was very strict and insisted I get up to practice the exercises even though I was in such pain. I got up bearing the pain. I started to sweat, and I was in less pain.
She asked my husband to watch over me before she left. He hit me wherever the pain was. I realized that this was a test. I studied the Fa and did the exercises. I didn't eat for three days, after which I recovered.
My husband witnessed the power of Falun Dafa and was amazed. He said to whoever he met that Falun Dafa is amazing because his wife recovered from excruciating pain within three days without taking any medication.
Husband Demands Immediate Release
The officials from the village kept harassing me after the persecution of Falun Dafa began, and I was arrested several times. My husband went to see the officials and demanded my immediate release every time I was detained.
Eight other practitioners in my village and I were arrested during the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games and were detained at the local drug rehabilitation center. Our families were not notified.
My husband looked for me everywhere and approached the eight families. He tried to urge them to talk to the village officials. “Our family members didn't break any laws.” He said to them, “If the officials don't release them, we should go to Beijing and file a lawsuit.”
Two families stepped forward. They went to the local brigade first and then to the village government. They went there twice a day, in the morning and in the evening after dinner. The CCP officials just delayed our case and didn't take any action.
My husband asked them why we were not released. The village Party secretary banged on the table and said that they couldn't release us just because he demanded it.
My husband got angry and said, “What's wrong with practicing Falun Dafa? You arrested them without notifying our families. Didn't you know we were worrying? You bang the table in front of me. Do you think I am afraid of you?”
He then threw a big ashtray on the ground and the ashes flew all over the room. Nobody dared to say a word. He ordered the CCP secretary to send us a carton of instant noodles.
The police indeed brought us a carton of noodles to us. My husband's bad temper played its role this time, and I was the first one to be released.
Husband Benefited from Dafa
After I began practicing Falun Dafa, I followed the Dafa principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.
I take good care of my husband. He witnessed my changes and supports my practicing Falun Dafa. He has one room for practitioners to study the Fa and prepares a coal heater, especially for practitioners in the winter. He also watches NTDTV every day.
When he sees practitioners sending greetings to Master in the Chinese New Year, he also sends his regards to Master and says, “Falun Dafa is wonderful!”
He does the exercises by the river bank every day and shouts, “Falun Dafa is good and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” I asked him to say it in his heart, but he insists that he say it loudly so that people can hear.
He is 75 years old and still in good health. He no longer loses his temper or swears at people. He said, “I used to have the final say in the family. But now you have the final say, and I listen to you.”
Falun Dafa has changed me, my husband, and the rest of my family!
