A physician is known to have special knowledge about health and he uses it to help people. The following is a true story about a well-known Chinese physician who cultivates Falun Dafa and practises the principles of Truth, Compassion, and Forbearance.

Dr. Hu promoting Falun Dafa, giving a speech, and teaching the Falun Gong exercises at a banquet.

Attending Different Qigong Classes and Finally Finding Falun Gong

Before Dr. Hu focused on cultivating Falun Dafa, he attended many different qigong (exercises for cultivating or refining the body) classes. He wanted to improve his health and he also wanted to use qigong to treat patients. Being an impatient person, he felt that it was too time consuming to write prescriptions and to apply acupuncture. He thought it would be much easier to use qi (often translated as "vital energy") to treat patients. In his search, he attended any class that others recommended.

At the end of 1995, someone in a qigong class brought in some pictures of people doing qigong exercises. The whole class began to learn the hand movements by looking at the pictures. They unanimously thought that it was a very good practise. They learnt that these were part of the Falun Gong exercises. There was not much information about Falun Gong at that time in Taiwan, nor was there a place for people to learn the practise. Dr. Hu then searched for someone to teach him Falun Gong. At the Spring Festival in 1997, he finally found an elderly Falun Dafa practitioner to teach him the exercises. After he attended a nine-day seminar, he learnt that Falun Gong did not involve money, which was quite different from any other qigong method he had found.

In November of 1997, Falun Gong Teacher Mr. Li Hongzhi came to Taiwan to give lectures on the Fa (law or principle, the teachings in Falun Gong). Ten minutes into the lecture, admiration started to fill Dr. Hu's heart. He understood immediately that Master Li was a great Teacher. Even now, he still remembers clearly that Master said, "You have to be a good person." This was so different from all other qigong teachings. Being a good person is both difficult and easy depending on how one feels. What was Master's criterion for being a good person then? He began to understand that criterion and told everyone he met that Falun Gong required people to be good. Being a good person, one would naturally become healthy.

Both Healthy and Wise

Before Dr. Hu learnt Falun Dafa, everyone said that his complexion was yellow and pale. After he learnt Falun Dafa, his complexion turned rosy. All his students said that he looked more energetic and his lectures became more interesting.

After he began to use the principles of Truth, Compassion, and Forbearance in his life, he underwent many changes. He used to be very impatient and blamed his patients if he was late for attending qigong classes or for having his meals. Soon after he began to practise Falun Dafa, he became very calm. He did not feel hunger after mealtime had passed, and he had a sincere smile on his face when talking to his patients. Dr. Hu also realised that he could recite things faster and easier. It was even easy for him to recite a very difficult medical book called The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Alchemy. In addition, he discovered that this book and many other ancient medical books were not only about how to cure illness but their medical principles were also based on "cultivation," particularly cultivation of the mind. Previously, he could only understand the surface aspects such as how to cure illness with medicine and how to deal with energy channels. But now he began to tell his patients in a caring manner that upgrading moral standards and taking attachments and desires lightly are guarantees for one's health. One's health will naturally be good if he thinks, speaks, and acts according to Truth, Compassion, and Forbearance. Thus, many of his patients began to practise Falun Dafa.

After practising cultivation, Dr. Hu has corrected many of his views. He realised that since Master has taught practitioners to practise Truth, Compassion, and Forbearance and what Master has told practitioners has been good and benevolent, Falun Dafa practitioners' thinking patterns, therefore, must be righteous. This is also a difference between Falun Dafa and other qigong practises

Falun Dafa is Miraculous: A Patient in a Coma Opened Her Eyes

Dr. Hu sometimes visited patients in the hospital. One of his patients had a brain tumour, and had just finished her time in the intensive care unit where she was in a coma. She could not move or speak. Her eyes had not opened at all.

When he visited her for the first time and treated her with acupuncture, his wife, Mrs. Hu, came with him. She repeatedly said "Falun Dafa is good" into the patient's ear. Mrs. Hu also read "Lunyu" (preface to Zhuan Falun which contains the core teachings in Falun Gong) to her. When they came to see her the second time, she could use her fingers to show certain numbers.

One month later, she could bend her fingers to express her gratitude and raised her arm to say hello. She could even write some meaningful sentences. When she was asked to say "Falun Dafa is good," this time she could say these words by moving her lips, even though she could not speak. Everyone around her was extremely shocked.

One nurse saw what had just happened and came over to ask Dr. Hu some questions. Dr. Hu answered all of her questions. From the nurse, he learnt that the patient she was looking after was in a vegetative state after a car accident.

Dr. Hu went over immediately and said "Falun Dafa is good" into the patient's ear. He also asked her to repeat these words. A miracle happened: she opened her eyes and looked at Dr. Hu. The nurse was surprised and said that she had never seen a response like this before. "Those words, Falun Dafa is good, are truly miraculous!" she exclaimed

Dr. Hu feels that as a Chinese physician he has received very good guidance from the principles of Falun Dafa. His understanding of medical principles has improved and he has had a newer and deeper experience of them. His horizon has broadened. Now, he is hoping to introduce Falun Dafa to more predestined people by producing programs and giving speeches.
