Ms. Hsun is healthy and full of energy.

Ms. Hsun goes to tourist sites to distribute information about Falun Gong and tell people about the persecution in China.

Ill for Over 30 Years

Ms. Hsun lives in Southern Taiwan. After she turned 35 she was often ill. She felt cold and weak and her whole body ached. She visited several Western and traditional Chinese doctors and took Western and Chinese medicines, but nothing helped. She took painkillers and tried physical therapies to alleviate her pain. She said, “I spent several hours a day adjusting my body to reduce the pain, but the nothing helped, and I suffered for more than 30 years.”

By the time she turned 60, she was diagnosed with macular degeneration. An ophthalmologist from Changgeng Hospital said that her condition was incurable. Her eyesight kept deteriorating and she soon lost vision in her right eye.

At 65 she had severe sciatica. Due to the agonizing pain in her back and legs during each attack, she was unable to stand, walk, or even sleep. Her life was miserable. X-rays showed that there was pressure on her nerve so she had surgery. However, the surgery led to a bacterial infection, and she nearly died.

Amazing Recovery after Practicing Falun Gong

One day, the local community office sent out a notice: “There will be free Falun Gong classes in the park tomorrow. All are welcome.” More than 20 people participated.

The first time Ms. Hsun did the exercises, she felt wonderful. She immediately knew that Falun Gong was very special and she was determined to continue practicing it. All her pain and illnesses soon disappeared, and she regained her eyesight.

She experienced many amazing things. At first, she could not do the sitting meditation, but she was determined. One day, she was able to put both legs up in the double lotus position. She clearly heard someone say, “You must keep practicing.” She opened her eyes but did not see any one there. She says she will never forget that moment and felt greatly encouraged. Now she can do the sitting meditation for one hour without any difficulty.

Since she grew up during the war, Ms. Hsun never went to school. She could not read or speak standard Chinese. She obtained a copy of Zhuan Falun, the main book of Falun Gong, but she could not read it. The practice site coordinator patiently tried to teach her, but she kept forgetting what she learned.

When she opened the book one evening, all the words were golden. She was stunned. After that, she learned the words very quickly. Now she can read all the words in the book and studies the Fa for several hours every day.

Once illiterate, she can now read all the Falun Gong books and has read them several times. Her sons and daughters are very impressed and feel the positive changes in their mom are miraculous. Her oldest daughter has recently started practicing.

Visiting Tourist Destinations

Ms. Hsun has practiced Falun Gong for 12 years. Even though she is elderly, she gets around as easily as a young woman and is very healthy. Her family is delighted and encourages her to keep practicing.

When she learned that thousands of mainland Chinese visit certain tourist sites in Taiwan, she decided to join other practitioners and tell them about the persecution of Falun Gong. Her husband is happy to drive her every day. For years, she has been distributing flyers and holding informational posters about Falun Gong.
