Practicing Dafa Cured My Liver Ailment and Made Me a Better Person

Before I began practicing Dafa I was burdened persistently by various ailments such as an atrophic type of gastritis, gastroptosis, insomnia, etc. The worst was my liver ailment. It is a genetic disease that runs in my family. My mother, elder sister, elder brother, second brother and my younger brother all died from this liver disease. I was absolutely not confident at all that my liver disease could be cured. Although I searched for good doctors to treat me, my liver condition worsened steadily. I was desperate and full of despair. I converted myself to Buddhism. I burned lots of incense and prostrated myself very sincerely every day, and I read many books on Buddhism. It was all in vain, however. My condition was still not getting better.

In April 1996 one of my relatives showed me the videotapes of Master Li's lectures. Finally, I had found the truth that I had been searching for for years, and my view of the world has totally changed ever since.

A friend of mine sent me the book Zhuan Falun. I read the book as though I had been starving for the knowledge it contained; I read it through in a single sitting. I felt that Master explained everything that I had longed to know. I understand the reason that a human being becomes a human being, the reason that man exists and the relationship between karma and getting ill. In the topic of transformation of karma, Master says in Lecture Four of Zhuan Falun, "...this karma is not accumulated in only one lifetime. The community of cultivators believes that a Primordial Spirit does not become extinct. If a Primordial Spirit does not become extinct, one probably had social interactions before this life. So one might have owed something to someone, bullied someone, or done other bad things, such as killing, which would induce this karma. These things add up in another dimension, and one always carries them; the same is also true with the white substance. This is not the only source, as there is also another situation. Throughout the generations in the family, ancestors may also accumulate karma for later generations."

My grandmother died from cirrhosis. Her accumulated karma was passed down to our generation. Once when my second brother was very ill he was treated by a very learned monk who told my brother that he had taken somebody's life before, and that person did not want anything except my brother's life for his retribution. Now after Master's teaching I understood what happened to my brother.

Since May 6, 1996, I seriously started the path of my cultivation. I learned Dafa and practiced the exercises persistently. My whole life has been completely transformed ever since. I have become very healthy and energetic, and never feel tired even after work. I know that Master has purified my body. From the very first day when I started practicing Dafa until the present, for seven years I never took one single pill or got any injections of medication. I feel so delighted not to be bothered by any illness. I also gained weight, from 100 to 130 pounds. Not only has my health improved but also my way of thinking is also continuously advancing. I demand of myself that I strictly follow the principles of "Truthfulness, Benevolence, Tolerance." Many people have said that I am a brand new person. It is Dafa that has bestowed me with a second life and brought joy to my family.
