Two Cases of Becoming Healthy after Practising Falun Gong, Then Dying Due to Persecution

Below are cases of two people who were previously seriously sick, then became healthy after practising Falun Gong, but died due to continued harassment and threats by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

1. Ms. Zhao Fazhen, 52, lives in Dadianzi Village, Zhucheng, Weifang. Before she practised Falun Gong, she had hypertension, was paralysed, and was not be able to speak. After therapy she got a little better but could not take care of herself and could not speak clearly. In Autumn of 1997, she learned Falun Gong and became healthy in a short period of time. She did not spend a penny taking medicines. Her husband also practised Falun Gong and recovered from his stomach ulcer.

On July 20th, 1999, the CCP started to persecute Falun Gong. Zhao Fazhen's family also suffered from the searches, monitoring, threats, and detention. Her husband was detained and fined 6000 yuan¹, since he did not give up his cultivation.

During the CCP's Two Conferences, before May 2006, the secretary of the Village, Li Jingting, led four policemen to search Zhao's home. They threatened her and confiscated Dafa books, videos, and recorders. Zhao had a stroke and passed away on August 25th, 2006.

2. Mr. Bai Ruyi, 70, lived at Changcheng, Zhucheng, Weifang. He had many diseases before he practised Falun Gong. He had an operation for a gall stone, had hypertension, heart disease, liver dysfunction,and a myocardial infarction.

When he was desperate and pained, on February 15th, 1998 in the afternoon, he continuously listened to six tapes of Teacher Li Hongzhi's lectures [Teacher Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Dafa]. He finished listening to the set of nine tapes the next day at noon and he felt very comfortable. On February 18th, he started reading a Falun Dafa book. He subsequently gained a new life. Since that day he could take care of himself. After ten days, Bai Ruyi walked out of the door and strolled down the street. After one month, he stopped taking all eight of his medications.

Bai Ruyi got better and better and he was able to work in the fields. His neighbours said that by practising Falun Gong, Bai Ruyi not only recovered from his illnesses; he could also do more work than what he could do in his youth.

After July 20th, 1999, when the CCP started persecuting Falun Gong, Bai Ruyi suffered from harassment, and police searches of his home. The police forced him to write a guarantee statement renouncing Falun Gong. The resulting guilt and intense pressure, along with the policemen's harassment and threats caused 72 year-old Bai Ruyi to lose his environment for studying Dafa and practising the exercises, and thus he became weaker and weaker. His liver diseases recurred; he vomited blood, and passed away on September 2nd, 2004.
