(Minghui.org) Greetings, Revered Master Li Hongzhi!
My name is Amardev Singh. I have a Ph.D. and do research work in sericulture for the Central Silk Board. I live in Poonch, a district of Jammu and Kashmir in India. I did not visit temples often, but always believed in the existence of God. I used to often lose my temper. I argued with many people and sometimes got extremely angry with family members if they didn’t agree with my opinions. After an argument, I would realize I was wrong and would feel guilty, but it kept happening.
I got married in 2015 and after a few months of marriage, my wife and mother-in-law started treating me badly. After several months, my relationship with my wife and her family had become totally unbearable, and my health had started to deteriorate. I made up my mind to divorce her and filed a case in court. As I was going through these family problems, I also suffered physically with severe headaches and eye problems. I searched for miracle cures and visited some famous temples, but I was not cured. I made mistakes in my interpersonal relationships, and my health declined further. I started crying, unsure what I had done wrong and why I had to suffer like this. I consulted many doctors, and one doctor in Bangalore confirmed my migraine and eyesight issues but couldn’t solve them. I even visited different religious priests who I heard could ward off mishaps and evil spirits, and spent lots of money but nothing worked.
In early 2020, a senior scientist from another city visited our office and suggested I contact a man in another city to procure some items for work. This man is a Falun Dafa practitioner, and he sent me a Falun Dafa video. At first, I ignored it because it was in the Chinese language and he sent it when COVID was first spreading. I thought it was related to the pandemic and deleted it.
This practitioner later asked me if I had seen the video, so I started searching for information about Falun Dafa. When I read an experience sharing article written by a practitioner, I was so delighted. I thought I had found what I was looking for. I immediately called the practitioner and asked him to teach me the exercises and send me the books Falun Gong and Zhuan Falun. By this time, I was so curious I couldn’t even wait for the books to arrive and felt that only Falun Dafa could save me.

Within a week, I had learned the exercises. When I was doing the second exercise, I felt dizzy two times. I realized that revered Master Li (the founder of Falun Dafa) had removed bad entities from my body. I read experience sharing articles every day and started feeling really comfortable. I gave all my religious books to other people and decided that I would only practice Falun Dafa and firmly believe in Master. After practicing for just three months, the discomfort in my eyes disappeared and my headaches went away completely. And the biggest issue in my life, my family issue, was sorted out! My wife, who had not talked to me for two years, started communicating with me again, and we reunited with my in-law’s family. Whenever I recall how my family got back together, I remember Master’s words in Lecture 2 of Zhuan Falun:
“As long as you practice cultivation and make up your mind to practice cultivation, you will recover all of what you have lost.” (Zhuan Falun)

I kept reading Zhuan Falun, but five months after I started practicing, whenever I studied the Dafa books, I felt physically uncomfortable and had headaches. One day, I thought to myself, “How can I still suffer headaches while reading!” With a loud voice, I recited Master’s words from Zhuan Falun (Lecture 1):
“I am rooted in the universe. If anyone can harm you, he or she would be able to harm me. Put simply, that person would be able to harm this universe.” (Zhuan Falun)
From that day on, I did not feel any physical discomfort again while reading Zhuan Falun.
After practicing Falun Dafa and with firm belief in Master, I received a new life and confidence beyond my imagination. In the past, tolerance was my weakest point. That has improved a lot and I now understand the real purpose of life. I always follow Dafa’s principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance, and whenever anything happens, I try to look within, find where I was wrong and think of others. Also, after practicing Falun Dafa, I came to realize that I should treat everyone with compassion. My working environment has improved, and my colleagues always treat me with respect.
I work in a silkworm seed production center. Our seed production has increased, and even during unfavorable seasons we have produced seeds for two consecutive years, something said to be impossible. I know this was due to Master’s blessings. Within three years, I was promoted to the rank of Scientist-C level in my organization.

I taught my parents to recite “Falun Dafa is good” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” They said that after reciting these phrases, they feel very good and never tired, even after working the whole day. I gave Falun Dafa fliers to my father, who is retired from the education department. He distributes these fliers to people. I have memorized “On Dafa,” and in my free time I always try to recite it. After reading many articles on Minghui about the benefits practitioners have received after memorizing Zhuan Falun, I also made up my mind to do so and have started memorizing Zhuan Falun.
If I have written anything inappropriate, please point it out and help me improve. I have written based on my limited understanding of the Fa. I promise to Master that I will do the three things diligently and to return with revered Master to my true home.
