Words from the Heart of a New Practitioner: Falun Gong Brings to Me the Hope for a New Life
(Clearwisdom.net) I am a new practitioner and started learning Falun
Gong less than 2 months ago. I am 36 this year. Since I experienced a miracle
that exceeded the expectations of everyone, my fellow practitioners wanted me to
share it with others in writing. On April 5 of this year, before work my family and I were sitting down to
have breakfast, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my stomach. My family called an
ambulance and immediately sent me to the hospital. Before I was even thoroughly
checked out, the doctor treated my case as a stomach problem. They gave me an
injection, some medicine and did acupuncture for the whole day, but without
success. Then they used six injections of painkillers but still could not
relieve my pain. They could find no way to resolve the problem and transferred
me to another hospital. After doctors and experts had coordinated a diagnosis of my case and after a
B-type ultrasonic examination, it turned out that it was heart disease. The
results frightened my whole family. My family has had a history of heart
disease. My mother suffers from heart disease, and in recent years my younger
and older sisters both lost their lives to it. They were both about 30 years
old. The doctor told me that there was no existing treatment that could guarantee
to cure my disease. It was said that a hospital in Beijing may be able to treat
it with surgery, but the surgery would cost over 200,000 yuan and it
could not be guaranteed that it would be successful. My whole family was shocked
to hear this and at a loss about what to do. At this point, my parents-in-law
mentioned Falun Gong to me. They had been practicing Falun Gong for many years.
Because I did not want to follow their advice to practice in the past, they did
not bring up how it could help my health. Now since my case was so severe, they
brought it up to me. Everyone agreed that the critical point was my attitude. I
struggled with this in my mind until I realized that Falun Gong was my only
hope. After making up my mind, I returned home from the hospital. Upon getting back home, I first listened to Teacher's lecture tape at
Guangzhou twice. Gradually I could feel that my stomach did not ache as severely
as before and I wanted to eat something. Two days later, I could get out of bed.
I then read the book Zhuan Falun twice, in addition to listening to the lecture
tape. The Teacher talked about "attaining naturally without pursuit" (Lecture
at the First Conference in North America, March 29-30, 1998, New York). I
just listened to the tape and read the book over and over, without thoughts of
gaining something. I felt my body recovering. My mother-in-law then taught me
the exercises, and I practiced them both in the morning and evening. When I did
the fifth exercise, I felt something spinning continuously on top of my head and
near my stomach. Weeks went by, and I could feel that there was nothing wrong
with my body anymore. Health had returned to me. I even joined my family in
remodeling the house. Now I feel like I have become a true practitioner. Due to my limited time of studying the teachings of Falun Gong, my experience
sharing above may have wrong understandings, which I hope fellow practitioners
will point out to me. June 23, 2005
