(Clearwisdom.net) I am a Dafa practitioner. I obtained the Fa after a neighbor told me the truth about the persecution. I studied the Fa and practiced at home by myself starting in August of 2001. I only know two fellow practitioners. One is the neighbor who clarified the truth to me. Another is one who often brings me truth-clarifying materials. They are both very nice to me, giving me several Dafa books, and encouraging me to study the Fa well and strengthen my righteous thoughts.

Before beginning the practice, I suffered from lots of diseases including kidney disease, stomach and intestinal disorders, urinary and nasal infections, constant dizziness, arthritis and lower back pain. I was taking all kinds of medicine. I don't have any income myself, and more than half of my husband's salary was spent for my medicine and medical bills. What remained could hardly support our daily lives. Though I spent lots of money, my diseases got worse and worse. I became emaciated and felt that death would better than the suffering I was going through.

As a result, I decided to practice Falun Dafa. At first, I tried not to let my family know. Eventually my husband found out and threatened to kick me out of my home. My children were also against my practice. They stopped talking to me for a long time. They were all deceived by the lies from the media. I was not moved no matter how they treated me, I told them, "I could give up everything but Falun Dafa." My family saw me being so steadfast they stopped bothering me about my practice.

When I started reading Zhuan Falun our Master started to purify my body even before I learned the exercises. When I was half way through Zhuan Falun, I started having loose bowels and vomiting. I ate steamed rice that night and did not drink any water, yet I threw up about half a bucket of fluid. When I got up the next morning, I felt much better. After a period of cultivation, my health improved magically. My diseases all disappeared, I gained weight, my skin looked healthier and I felt energized. It has been almost two years now and I have not taken even one pill in that time. Witnessing the dramatic change in my health, my family members now all understand me. My husband does extra housework so that I will have time to study the Fa, practice the exercises and write truth-clarifying materials. When my old friends said I looked much better, I told them this is the benefit of practicing Falun Dafa. Everything I have today is from Dafa, from our great benevolent Master.

Every morning I get up at around 4 o'clock. After practicing the exercises and sending forth righteous thoughts I leave home to distribute truth-clarifying materials. When there are no truth-clarifying materials available, I write them myself. I write about my own experience with the practice. I want to tell all kind-hearted people that Falun Dafa is great, Falun Dafa is a righteous way, that our Master is great and that our Master is innocent of all of the crimes alleged in the Chinese government propaganda. I want to wake everyone up from being deceived by the lies. I view this as my duty. No matter if it is cold winter or hot summer, whether windy or raining, I go out to spread the truth about Falun Dafa every morning, leaving truth-clarifying materials at people's doors. Under our Master's protection, I come back home safely every day.

Dear Master, I really cannot find the words to express my gratitude for your Benevolence. The only thing I can do is follow your guidance all the time, "Follow Teacher closely, steadfastly cultivating Dafa." [from "The Knowing Heart"] I will strengthen my righteous thoughts, and do well the three things Master has told us to do: study the Fa well, clarify the truth and send forth righteous thoughts. I will assist Master in Fa-rectification until the Fa rectifies the human world, so as not to be unworthy of Master's benevolent salvation.
