Russia: The Cultivation Story of Lima from St. Petersburg

Lima is a seventy eight year-old woman who lives in St. Petersburg and started to practise Falun Gong in 1996. As one of the most veteran Falun Gong practitioners in Russia, she has persisted protesting against the persecution of Falun Gong at the Chinese Consulate every day for over two years.

Lima tells people that what she is doing is not involved with politics, as cultivators are not supposed to get political. She simply wants to tell people not to believe in the lies fabricated by the Chinese Communist regime, and her biggest wish is that people are able to position themselves well by distinguishing between righteousness and evil.

Before practising Falun Gong, Lima’s health was very bad; she used to suffer from serious gastritis and pancreatitis. Even though her son is a doctor; modern medicine didn’t help at all. As a result, she had no choice but to resort to oriental qigong. She practised it for quite a while but to no avail. One day someone gave her a book entitled Falun Gong. Since she felt very good after reading the book, she began to practise Falun Gong exercises with other practitioners. After watching the series of nine-day lectures, she finally became a true Falun Dafa practitioner.

Since the publication of the “Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party”, Lima has spared no effort to actively promote the book to the public. Based on her family members’ experience of the persecution perpetrated by the Communist Party in the former Soviet Union, she exposes the intrinsic evil nature of the Communist Party. Referring to how she has personally benefited from her cultivation, she also showed that the Chinese Communist regime’s persecution against Falun Gong is brutal because of the CCP’s evil nature.
