(Clearwisdom.net) An eighty-year-old man from North China, who used to be a heavy smoker and had poor health, quit smoking and became stronger after he started practicing Falun Gong.

One day, not long after he just started practicing Falun Dafa, the old man went to a group Fa study. As soon as he stepped in the door, he smelled cigarette smoke and asked if someone had been smoking. No one in the room answered, but everyone smelled it. Curious, they started looking for the source of the smoke smell. Finally, they found that the smell was coming from the old man's hands. The elderly man suddenly came to understand that Teacher was purifying his body for him and letting the dirty stuff out through his hands. This situation continued for a week. Before he started practicing Falun Dafa, the elderly man had relied on medications every day for years. After a week of practice, he also experienced a smell of drugs emitting from his hands as the bad residues were eliminated from his body. Since practicing and cultivating Falun Gong, this man has never smoked again and remains in good health without requiring any pills or injections. Although he is over eighty years old, this gentleman's eyes are clear, his hearing is good and he walks as if full of energy.

In 2004, several miracles happened to this practitioner.

One day, he wanted to build a doghouse. Since everyone in his family except him was busy, he decided to do it by himself. He found a ladder and climbed up to the roof. It was kind of slippery and he fell to the ground and lay there until the neighbors rushed over to him after they heard him fall. They insisted on sending the elderly man to the hospital, but the old man refused and insisted that he was fine. Without any medications, just two weeks later, the old man was back to normal.

Aother time, the elderly practitioner and his son were cutting some stones to fix their house. The father was holding the chisel, and the son had an eight-pound iron hammer in his hands and was pounding the chisel. However, the hammer went off target and it struck the old man's head, right on the temple. Blood gushed out from his head. The son was frightened and begged him to go to the hospital, but the old man refused again and said that he was fine. Just like the last time, in less than two weeks, he recovered without any medication.

A person in the elderly practitioner's neighborhood had taken a negative view of Falun Dafa, and constantly verbally abused Teacher and Dafa. One day last summer, he did it again in front of the elderly practitioner's house. The old man warned him about karmic retribution, but the neighbor would not listen. That night, the neighbor suffered from a terrible migraine headache. He came to the old man's home the next day and told him about the karmic retribution he received and promised that he would never say bad things about Falun Dafa again.

All of these incidents happened to this elderly practitioner. They have made a big impact in his region. Even the 610 Office members, those who still have a good heart, told the old man in a whisper, "Falun Gong is great! Go ahead and practice it!"
