“The book gave me a new lease on life and I realize my life’s purpose. Before I read the book, I had a brain tumor and heart disease, and I was unable to work. Through reading the book and doing the Falun Dafa exercises, I became healthy again and able to work. I am so grateful to Master Li.”
(Minghui.org) Zhuan Falun, Falun Dafa’s main book, was first published in Chinese in January 1995, and translated into Japanese in 1999. Since then many Japanese people began practicing. Japanese Falun Dafa practitioners say their health and morals improved after reading the book and following the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance.
Diabetes Is Gone
Mr. Suketsu’s friend suggested he read Zhuan Falun in 2001. After reading the book, he said, “I understood that people can not change their fate no matter how hard they try. If I suffered from an ailment, then that ailment is part of my fate. If I go to a hospital to have it treated, I’m only postponing the karma I need to repay, and it will recur eventually. The only way to change one’s fate is to follow the Great Way and improve oneself.
“I didn’t think about having my diseases cured when I read the book. After I read it, I understood that my lifestyle was harmful, and I corrected it following the teachings. My blood sugar came down to a healthy level and it’s stayed that way for more than 20 years. My diabetes disappeared without medical treatment. This means my fate is changed. My doctors all said that it was a miracle.
“I want to thank Master Li, the founder of Falun Dafa, not just because my diabetes is gone, but because the book allows me to live a virtuous life, which is priceless.”
Educating Children with Falun Dafa’s Principles
When Mr. Iga lived in China his wife told him about Zhuan Falun in 1999. He wasn’t able to finish reading a book because he didn’t like to read. Zhuan Falun is the exception, and he’s read it repeatedly. “The book reveals the truth of the universe, life, and human body. It also explains the purpose of life and how to be a good person. I can’t stop reading it,” he said.
“I’m 65 years old. My parents never taught me how to be a good person, and I did not know how to educate my children. Zhuan Falun taught me the universal principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, and the purpose of life. I then educated my children with these universal principles, and they all grew up to be good citizens.
“The book gave me a new lease on life and I realize my life’s purpose. Before I read the book, I had a brain tumor and heart disease, and I was unable to work. Through reading the book and doing the Falun Dafa exercises, I became healthy again and able to work. I am so grateful to Master Li.”
Knowing the Right Thing to Do
Ms. Hasegawa attended a nine-day Falun Dafa workshop 15 years ago. She said, “The woman who taught me the exercises said that mind and body are one. If my mind was sound, my physical health would be too. She handed me a copy of Zhuan Falun and told me that the book teaches people how to stay fit mentally and physically. I finished reading the book in a week.
“I used to have abnormal bleeding when I had my periods. I looked pale and had to go to the hospital to get shots to stop the bleeding. The second time I went to the workshop, I had my period and I still bled a lot. But during those days, my complexion became rosy and my skin improved. I realized that my body was undergoing the purification process Master mentioned in Zhuan Falun.
“My health gradually improved—my joint pain, thyroid problem and heart disease slowly went away. After repeatedly reading the book, I was no longer lost. I knew what the right thing to do was and what was not.
“The teachings do not forbid us from doing anything, they just help us see our shortcomings and guide us to the right path. I’m inspired to be a good person. I quit alcohol, and ended a 12-year abnormal relationship. I moved back to Tokyo alone. At first I felt miserable, but I now know what I did was right.
“I’ve recently been able to see my deeply-hidden attachments. I will practice diligently from now on.”
Kidney Disease Gone
After Ms. Kawamura watched a video in 2021 and learned about Falun Dafa and the persecution in China, she wondered whether she had the courage to uphold her faith under the threat of death. She decided to join a Fa study group and learn the exercises.
She had only done the exercises three times when the Fa study group was shut down because of the COVID pandemic. However her kidney problem was gone. She said, “At the time my kidneys were failing. I had to constantly take deep breaths, my legs were swollen, and I always rubbed my back where the kidneys are. The third time I attended the Fa study group, while I talked to the practitioners, I realized that I didn’t rub my back, my legs were no longer swollen, and I could breathe easily.
“Ever since I could remember, I always felt that something important was going to happen, and I wanted it to happen soon. The first time I opened the book and read “On Dafa,” I felt connected to eternity and I heard amazing music. I felt the book included everything. I realized that finding Falun Dafa was the important thing I was waiting for.
“When I started to read the book, I had to wear my glasses. Now I don’t need them. Every word and phrase brought me a miraculous feeling, and made me want to explore its deeper meaning. Sometimes I cry when I read Zhuan Falun because I’m deeply moved. I was gradually able to calm down and knew I wanted to assimilate to the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance. I will continue to read the book, and I thank Master for leading me to the path of cultivation.”
Learning to Forgive
Ms. Shinohara, in her 70s, had a hard life. She lived with her in-laws after she married. Even though she worked hard to be a good wife and daughter-in-law, her mother-in-law treated her badly, and her irresponsible husband ignored his family duties. He drank excessively, and lived a luxurious lifestyle with money he borrowed. She had to work hard to raise their four children. Because she was overworked, she developed asthma. She relied on medicine to keep going.
“All I wanted was to at least raise my children until they become adults, but my health was slowly falling apart. I came across Falun Dafa, and the free teaching made me very happy. After doing the exercises, my asthma was gone, and so was my fever,” she said.
“The incredible thing is, I was able to forgive my mother-in-law and husband, who once caused me so much pain. I appreciate them now, all thanks to Master.”
Multiple Illnesses Disappear
Ms. Tanimoto nearly died in an accident when she was six years old. In the following 46 years, the aftereffects gave her severe headaches and stomachaches, and she took a lot of painkillers.
One day she began to experience some strange phenomena, and after a while, she believed that, someday, she would find someone who could explain what she experienced. “A year later I read a book that said, ‘Try practicing a qigong that is not related to politics or religion.’ The next day I saw a Falun Dafa flier in my mailbox, and, at that moment, I knew that this was it. I immediately signed up for the workshop and began to read Zhuan Falun and Falun Gong,” she said.
“In about a month, my headaches were gone. I cried with joy as I was free from the pain that was killing me for the past 46 years. Two years later I vomited blood one day when I brushed my teeth. My first thought was stomach cancer, but I quickly denied it, knowing that it was karma being eliminated. I vomited blood twice after that, and my stomach pain never came back. My trigger finger and anxiety were gone as well.
“I am so glad that I get to practice Falun Dafa and read the books. I’m not only physically sound but my character and morals have constantly improved. Thank you, Master.”

Editor’s Note: Dear readers, do you know that Falun Dafa, originally from China, is currently practiced by people in over 100 countries? But in China, since Jul. 20, 1999, Falun Gong is defamed, slandered and persecuted due to the Chinese Communist Party’s fear of Falun Gong’s rapidly growing popularity. Jiang Zemin, former head of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), perceived the spiritual discipline’s growing popularity as a threat to the CCP’s atheistic ideology.
