(Minghui.org) I am74 years old and have been practicing Falun Dafa (also known as Falun Gong) for over 20 years. Even though many Chinese were deceived by the Communist Party’s lies after the persecution of Falun Dafa started in 1999, some who knew the truth made conscious choices to help Falun Dafa practitioners. And those who sincerely believed that Falun Dafa was good were often blessed. Here are some examples that have happened to me and my family.
Police Station Chief Helps Me Register My Residence
I went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa in 2000 and was sent to a forced labor camp. My residence registration was canceled. When I was released from the labor camp, I went to the local police station to re-apply for my residence permit. I was told that I had to write a letter, get it stamped by my employer, and submit it with a recent photo to the police station.
I wrote in my letter, “I am a citizen of the P.R.C. I was sent to a forced labor camp for cultivating in Falun Dafa, believing in Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, and being a good person. I have been released from the camp and returned home. I am requesting to register my residence.”
Everyone at work was very kind to me. When I asked a clerk to stamp my letter, he read it and said, “This won't work.” Even though I was confident it would work, he wrote another letter for me just in case. Then I had my picture taken at a street vendor, which cost much less than if I did it at the police station.
When I submitted my application and picture, the young policewoman was rather displeased that I didn't have my picture taken at the police station. She told me to go talk to the station chief.
The young chief was very kind and even got me a cup of tea. I told him how I became free of illness by practicing Falun Dafa. I explained how wonderful Falun Dafa is and how people are blessed when they treat Dafa practitioners nicely, etc. Although I am usually not good at talking, I couldn't stop talking that day. It was as if I had been granted tremendous wisdom.
In the end, the chief said, “Ma'am, you have suffered enough. If [Falun Dafa] is good, keep practicing it.” He went downstairs and took care of my registration himself.
Union Leader Helps Get My Wages Reinstated
Another time, the police tried to take me to a forced labor camp again. But the pre-admission physical exam showed that I was seriously ill. The labor camp refused to admit me.
The director of the labor camp told the police officer who escorted me, “This person has a life-threatening illness. We cannot take responsibility for her.” He then turned to me and said, “You go home and practice [Falun Dafa]. I am the director and here is my police ID.”
As a result, I served my term outside of the labor camp, but my wages were suspended. While trying to get my wages reinstated, I talked to people with different government agencies about Falun Dafa. Some told me that they couldn't help me for this or that reason. My family and relatives told me not to waste my time. But I was not moved because it was an opportunity to tell people about Dafa and the persecution.
I went to the union office where I worked and talked to the leaders. One of them was in charge of issues with women workers. Hearing how I had been persecuted, she was very moved. “You have worked in the factory all your life. I must take up your case. Leave me your phone number and I will get back to you in a week,” she said.
She called me a week later: “I have negotiated with the social security office and they have agreed to pay you your back wages. Please be patient and take care of yourself. You should get all your back paychecks within six months.” When I got my wages back, everyone was amazed.
One time I went to the police department to see the director of the Domestic Security Division. When the guard asked me what I did, I said that I was a practitioner of Falun Dafa. He saluted to me earnestly. I was so touched.
Friends and Family Benefited from Believing Falun Dafa Is Good
My older brother was diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer over ten years ago. The doctor told us to take good care of him, as he didn't have much time left. Two years later, the doctor saw a family member and asked her how my brother was. The answer was that my brother was doing very well. The doctor thought it was a miracle that he was still alive.
My older brother is almost 80 now. He has always believed that Falun Dafa is good. He listens to Master Li Hongzhi's lectures and recites “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!”
About 18 months ago, he woke up feeling not quite right and couldn't walk straight. The family took him to the hospital and were told he’d suffered a stroke. He lost consciousness and spent two nights in the hospital. I rushed to the hospital on the third day. I told everyone there to recite, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” In less a month, he was discharged from the hospital. He is now completely recovered and able to care for himself.
My nephew was diagnosed with cirrhosis ascites because of liver failure. Everyone in the family was very sad about it. I told them that they should not be afraid because he had helped Dafa practitioners on many occasions. The entire family sincerely recited, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” Slowly my nephew recovered and can work now.
My nephew's wife had breast cancer. She had chemotherapy and lost all her hair. On the day of her surgery, I told everyone in the family to recite, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” She had a very successful surgery. Even though the doctor thought that the cancer had already metastasized, I told them not to worry: “As long as you believe that Falun Dafa is good, Master will help you. A miracle will happen.”
Later, when they went to a bigger hospital, no cancer cells were found. She has now grown new hair and completely recovered from breast cancer. Everyone in the family is very grateful to Falun Dafa and its master.
