(Minghui.org) Many people have had amazing experiences by practicing Falun Dafa, the ancient spiritual discipline based on the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. A practitioner from Hebei Province and another from Henan Province recall two such experiences.

A Practitioner in Hebei Province: My Chronic Illness Was Gone

I had an upper respiratory infection flare up every spring. I'd have symptoms of a cold, shortness of breath, and bronchitis that lasted for six months. The only thing that lessened my suffering was intravenous treatments.

In June 1996, a neighbor told me about Falun Dafa and said that many people became healthy after taking it up.

I was skeptical about Falun Dafa's healing power, but I went to a group exercise site out of curiosity. The volunteer instructor was very kind and patient. He taught me the exercises, and we studied Zhuan Falun, the main book of the practice. 

After I learned the exercises for a week, I went to a larger exercise site that had over 1,000 people. When I was doing the fourth exercise, I saw the ground was covered by a golden light. I was amazed and could not wait to tell my family.

I was encouraged and went to the exercise site daily—no matter how bad the weather was. One morning, it was very cold. I thought there might not be many people there, but when I arrived I was surprised to see everyone had shown up!

Several months later, I noticed that my chronic illness was gone! And I have been healthy and full of energy ever since.

No Major Injury after a Huge Explosion

Where I live in Jiahe County, Hunan Province, is known as the home of smithing in China. Every family here has a forging business. My father was a blacksmith all his life, and he passed the business on to me.

On November 1, 2018, I was sharpening axes in the family workshop when the grinding wheel suddenly exploded.

I weigh nearly 180 pounds, but the explosion threw me over two meters up into the air. A five-centimeter-thick wheel penetrated my clothes and hit me on the left rib. In excruciating pain, I sat down in the meditation position and began saying over and over, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!”

My wife rushed out to see what had happened. The grinder was blown apart, the steel table was in pieces, and there were grinder plates everywhere. Torn pieces of my clothing were pushed into my open wounds. My wife immediately sat down and asked Master Li to save me. She said the phrases with me over and over.

After a while, I tried to pull my clothes out from around the wound. The grinder plate came out, along with a piece of bone.

When I went to the hospital, they said I had a hole in my rib the size of a grain of rice but no fractures or other injuries. Falun Dafa is truly amazing!
