I Gained a New Life After Practicing Falun Gong
By a Dafa practitioner from Shandong Province
(Clearwisdom.net) I am a female Falun Gong practitioner in my 70's from Shandong Province,
China. I would like to share with you my experiences after I started practicing
Falun Gong and tell you that Falun Gong is beneficial for people and that the
CCP's persecution of Falun Gong is completely groundless. Before I practiced Falun Gong, I suffered from many diseases, such as
gastroenteritis, neurasthenia, intestinal disorder and arthritis. I was so
emaciated that I felt I was on the verge of death. It was at this moment that I
came across Dafa. After I started to practice Dafa, all my illnesses disappeared
and I became so energetic that I was able to walk as fast as the wind. Dafa gave
me a new life. When I was 25 years old, I started to suffer from gastroenteritis. Every time
I had my dinner, I had to drink warm water and corn gruel first, otherwise my
stomach would cause me excruciating pain. I usually felt very cold all over my
body, and I would suffer from white-colored diarrhea. Because of my weak
stomach, I did not dare to eat any cold, sour, chilly or sweet food, or any
fruit. I could eat a little food only in the morning and could not eat anything
in the afternoon, otherwise I would feel very full and my limbs would become so
weak that I could not move. The illness made me very weak and led to poor blood
circulation. I suffered from the illness for 34 years until I recovered after I
began practicing Dafa. In 1995, I suffered from yet another illness--neurasthenia. In the early
stage, I could sleep for about 10 minutes at a time with the help of some
medicine. However, as time went on, the medicine became ineffective and I had no
sleep all day and all night. It was such great suffering. I resorted to some
expert doctors in a hospital in Linyi City. They prescribed some medicine, which
they said would take effect one week after I took them. Following the
suggestions of the doctors, I took the medication for a week, but with no
effect. My family then found a professor in Zibo City. After examining me, he
told me that I would die from the disease in two years from lack of sleep and he
prescribed some medication. I took the medication in large amounts for a month.
However, I still could not have even a moment of sleep. I suffered from the
insomnia for fourteen months, until I recovered from it the first night after I
met with Dafa. Before taking all the medicine for my neurasthenia, I started to suffer from
an intestinal disorder. When it attacked, I suffered from blood in my urine and
twitching all over my body, which gave me great pain. Even worse, I had
arthritis in my shoulders. In the summer, I did not dare to turn on the electric
fan, because the cool wind would pain me greatly, as if my bones were broken.
With this suffering, my life was even worse than death. In the summer of 1997, a Falun Gong practitioner introduced me to Falun Gong.
At the time, I was extremely emaciated and was waiting for my end to come. I
said to myself: "All that medication I took had no effect. Can practicing
Falun Gong be effective? There is still some medicine left. Maybe I can turn to
other alternatives after I take all the medicine." Then I changed my mind:
"I have resorted to so many experts and professors, but my condition has
worsened. I can't even support myself to go to the Falun Gong practice site.
Maybe I should give it a try." In hesitation, I went to the practice site
and asked some Falun Gong practitioners: "I am dying now. Will you accept
me?" They then helped me go to the home of a practitioner, where I listened
to a Fa lecture tape and watched the exercise video. When I arrived
home at 10:00 p.m., I immediately went to bed and slept soundly until 7:30 the
next morning. I had been unable to do household chores for more than one year
and could not even eat without the help of others. After I woke up, I felt very
energetic and did a thorough cleaning of my home and washed all the clothes that
I had worn in the past few months. All my family members were astounded by the
great power of Dafa after learning that all these changes happened after I
listened to Dafa lectures only the night before. I had been unable to sleep for more than one year. Miraculously, after
listening to the Fa lecture, I slept for nine and a half hours and my insomnia
was gone. I was convinced I should practice Falun Gong because of this amazing
personal experience. On the 16th day of my practice of Falun Gong,
Teacher helped me purify my body. I suddenly felt a pain in my stomach, but the
pain was different from before because my stomach did not sound as before. After
about half an hour, I excreted a pus egg with blood stains and the pain was
gone. On the 21st day, Teacher purified my body again. After three
bowel movements in a single day, all the symptoms of the gastroenteritis that
had made me suffer for 34 years were gone. Now I can have dinner as a normal
person and eat all kinds of food without any problems. In the past, I always tried to avoid the cool wind from an electric fan.
After I began practicing Dafa, I studied the Fa in front of an electric fan for
a whole summer without any problem. Moreover, the arthritis in my shoulders
disappeared without my noticing it. After two months of Fa study and exercises,
I can walk as fast as the wind. Now the CCP is persecuting Falun Gong cruelly and is forcing Falun Gong
practitioners to give up their belief in "Truthfulness, Compassion and
Tolerance." I am a person who should have already died of illnesses, but
Dafa gave me a new life. It is Dafa that saved my life, so how can I give it up? The miracle that happened to me is only one of the miracles that have
happened to millions of Dafa practitioners. I sometimes hear people say: "Falun
Dafa is good. If it were otherwise, why would so many people still stick to it
despite the CCP's cruel persecution?"
