(Minghui.org) I have been practicing Falun Dafa since March 2009. My health has improved greatly since I started studying the Fa and doing the exercises.
I used to cough a lot, and I also had neck arthritis and frequent stomachaches, but my good health was restored after I began practicing Falun Dafa.
Illness Karma Tribulation
I was interfered with by a serious stomachache in 2012. My weight dropped from 130 pounds to under 110 pounds.
Seeing that I had lost so much weight, my husband insisted that I have a check-up at the hospital. They said I had developed last-stage duodenal adenocarcinoma, which is cancer of the small intestine, and it was too late to operate.
My family tried to hide it from me because they thought I'd be petrified. They pretended that I just had a stomach ulcer and said that I needed to be taken to Beijing for treatment.
I completely negated the diagnosis in my mind by thinking that it was an illusion, and nothing to do with illness. At the hospital, I listened to Master's Fa-lectures. As I was the only patient in the room, I did the exercises and sent righteous thoughts.
I was then transferred to another hospital to receive treatment. I recited Master's Fa and poems.
I had to go through all sorts of tests during he first 20 days, including ultrasound, gastroscopy, CT scans, and others. I sent forth righteous thoughts before every test to eliminate all evil beings and factors persecuting me from other dimensions.
The results were different each time, and showed that my health was improving. When the doctor came to give me some updates, he always smiled. When I asked him why, he said, “I don't get it, I'm confused!” I clearly knew what he meant by that.
I always thought to myself, “Everything is an illusion. I'll just leave the problem to my Master!”
I once felt that I let Master down and couldn't hold back my tears. I thought to myself, “Master, I didn't cultivate well and I was taken advantage of by evil, but I will not acknowledge it.” I felt so pitiful. I wanted to walk on the path that Master had arranged for me, and fulfill my mission.
Experiencing the Power of Dafa
I was moved to a double room that I shared with a retired college teacher in her eighties. I told her that she would experience astounding things if she recited “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
She had no clue that she had stomach cancer, even though most of her stomach had been removed. After I clarified the facts to her, she truly believed in Dafa and asked me to write down the sentence I told her. She decided to sincerely recite it every day.
I didn't treat myself as a critically ill person, and did everything that I could on my own. I took every opportunity to clarify the facts to people at the hospital, and helped 17 people withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its youth organizations.
Right before I was discharged from the hospital, the doctor came to our ward room to congratulate me, saying, “Patients from your room are so fortunate, even the retired teacher's test results show that her tumor is gone!”
Hearing that, the teacher's daughter and husband were thrilled. She attributed her good fortune to her belief in Dafa. I overcame my tribulation in just over a month.
In other dimensions I could feel a great war between good and evil. If my thoughts were slightly off, the evil would have come to take away my life.
A few friends who hadn't yet quit the CCP visited me at home. Seeing that I had recovered so quickly, they were deeply impressed and decided to quit the CCP.
Illegally Detained
I was arrested when I visited a practitioner's home to study the Fa. I took the opportunity to clarify the facts to the police officers.
I told them about Dafa and how it is practiced freely in more than 100 countries, and persecuted only in China. I also told them that despite the brutal persecution, I would not give up my faith.
I said to a young guard who beat me, “You beat us good people, but we don't hate you because we know you have been deceived. I hope you learn the truth so that you will no longer commit crimes against practitioners. This is solely for your benefit, and I hope you are able to tell right from wrong.”
The police ransacked my home that night. They took my two computers, a printer, a laminator, a removable hard disk, a USB flash drive, and some truth-clarification materials and Shen Yun DVDs.
Police officers gave us physical examinations before transferring us to the local detention center. I clarified the facts to them and helped three police officers quit the CCP.
There were 22 inmates in my cell. Most were either drug addicts or drug dealers.
I had distributed a lot of fliers before being arrested and helped many people quit the CCP. My zealotry flared up, and it was exactly this attachment that got me into this tribulation.
I was very firm in eliminating the attachment. I asked for Master's help to quickly spread the truth about Dafa to the inmates and get out of the detention center, as this was not where I was supposed to be.
The next day, the guard in charge of our cell called me into her office. She told me that she got along very well with the practitioners who were previously held there, as she knew they were all very kind.
I shared with her how Dafa saved my life, and that if I didn't do the exercises, I'd likely have a relapse. When I asked her for permission to do the exercises, she thought it over and told me that I could do them during naptime in the bathroom, to avoid being seen on the cameras.
I used to have a high profile job, and as a result some guards were interested in seeing me. The inmates also looked at me out of curiosity. I took these opportunities to clarify the facts to them. I talked about how Dafa was framed and slandered under Jiang's regime, and how practitioners were not allowed to be good people.
I continued by talking about how the evil CCP even went as far as harvesting practitioners' organs and selling them for profit. I then told them that they should seize the opportunity to quit the CCP, to ensure their safety and save themselves from being eliminated when the great calamity comes.
Within two weeks, everyone had quit the Party except one person who had never joined in the first place.
After I finished the standing exercises at noon one day, the guard in charge of our cell and her assistant came to me and said, “We got to see what a true Falun Dafa practitioner is. Your movements look so nice. Once I get out of here, I'll find you and also learn Falun Dafa.”
I advised them to recite “Falun Dafa is wonderful! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is wonderful!” so that they could be saved.
One evening on a weekend, the assistant came to me and invited me to sing a Dafa song in our cell. I sang two songs: “De Du” and “Falun Holy King.”
Other guards on duty at the time came over to check out what was going on. As soon as I finished, I earned a round of applause.
I was released for medical reasons about 15 days later. As I was leaving, the guard and her assistant hugged me and said that they'd always remember me. Others told me that they'd always remember my songs.
Threatened with a Long Sentence
I was closely watched after I left the detention center, as I was seen as a “key” Dafa practitioner. The authorities threatened me with a heavy sentence that could range from seven to fifteen years.
I had a strong thought in my mind: “I am doing the most righteous thing in the universe; I will not allow evil to use any excuse to persecute me, as I am a disciple of the Master Buddha, and I will leave everything up to my Master.”
I have been trying my very best to do the {{three things well. However, the evil people still played tricks. They had my husband pass on a message to me.
The message was, “If you could provide any information about other practitioners, or give them some clue, or lure them into appearing, the police claimed that they could pretend to run into them by chance.”
I told my husband in an upright manner, “To protect myself by betraying other practitioners is completely unacceptable.”
My husband said, “If they were to sentence you to a few years, you wouldn't survive. And I can't live by myself.”
I then comforted him by saying that Master was always right by my side to safeguard me.
I know that my life has been extended by Master, to cultivate well and be altruistic and selfless, always putting others first and saving more sentient beings.
