Falun Gong Gave My Sister a Second Life

My sister is fifty-two years old and has been weak and sickly since she was young. Because she was always depressed due to her illnesses and had to lie down to rest all day long, she only attended two years of school. We were young at that time and we gave her a nickname - "lazy king." Our mother took her to see many doctors but to no avail.

After my sister married and had two children, her health deteriorated slowly and her illnesses compounded. She had a prolapsed rectum and her digestive system was poor. If she ate a bit more or ate things that were harder to digest, her digestive system would be upset and she would throw up water or white foam. She was always in low spirits and would tire easily. She had insomnia and suffered from migraine headaches. There were pink patches on her thigh called "swollen hypodermic tubercles." She suffered from serious rheumatism. Her arms and legs were uncomfortable, her joints ached and there was bursitis in her shoulder. On rainy days, the pain was very unbearable for her. She also suffered from ossein proliferation in the neck. Her whole body was swollen. Her limbs were weak, and she always had dizzy spells. She could not be cured, although she consulted many doctors all over the place.

In October 1996, my sister heard that Falun Gong had amazing healing abilities, and she wanted to give it a try since there was nothing to loose, given the fact that it was free to learn. In this way she followed one class after another of watching video recordings of Master's lectures till she finished watching the nine lectures. At the end of it, she said, "I am really dumbfounded. I now know the meaning of life, which I had always wanted to understand but failed to. I also know why a person comes to this world, what a person is living for and why there are illnesses."

From then onwards, my sister tried her best to be a good person. She kept the mentality of being considerate to others and being compassionate to sentient beings in her heart. At every place and time, she would use the standard of "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance" to handle matters. None of those who interacted with her would say that she was not good.

While studying the Fa and practicing the exercises, my sister's appetite got getter, her insomnia went away and she slept better. Her whole body felt light and comfortable. This was something that she had never experienced before in her life. Within six months of practicing Falun Gong, my sister's illnesses miraculously disappeared. She said, "I really experienced how it feels like to be without illness, the happiness and comfort of being without illness. This really brings much joy and happiness to society, my family and children, and this relieves them of much of their burdens."

As her mood became better, her health stronger, and her spirits high, my sister started to look younger. Whenever she met anyone, she would happily say, "Falun Dafa is good. It is compassionate Master who has given me a second life. I am thankful to Master for letting me have the chance to be reborn and be saved."

Falun Dafa has spread widely and saved countless people like my sister. But Jiang's regime, due to extreme jealousy, has abused their power to fabricate many lies to slander my Master and frame Falun Gong. It is my sincere hope that the persecution is ended soon, and more people like my sister can benefit from practicing Falun Gong.
