1. ONCE AGAIN, THERE IS A MIRACLE
The Head of Hong Kong Yijian Corporation, Ms. Chang, had a very poor constitution and often suffered from it. One of her ailments was allergic rhinitis and she had been on medicine for five years. She had also suffered from frozen shoulder. Sometimes, it was so painful that she could not use her hand to write. Over the years, she tried many kinds of medical treatment but got no improvement. The illness that affected her most was a brain tumor located at the pituitary gland. This condition resulted in an internal secretion imbalance and cessation of menstrual periods. The standard modern medical treatment for her condition is to use medication to control the growth of the tumor. Every month, Ms. Chang had to spend thousands of Hong Kong dollars on medicines. However, these medicines could not cure her illness and even had uncomfortable side effects. Although she often slept for more than ten hours a day, she still felt very tired.
From friends and media, Ms. Chang learned that Qigong could work miracles in curing diseases. She decided to try it. In March 1994, she went to Mainland China to seek Qigong treatment. After two months, she finally arrived in Fuxin, Liaonin Province and met Master Wu Zhongxian. On her first visit, Master Wu told her, “From now on, you stop taking any medicine.” Ms. Chang agreed, and from that day on, she stopped taking her medication and practiced Qigong everyday. She enjoyed it very much. Her need for extra sleep decreased and she found that a regular night’s sleep enabled her to feel very energetic during the day.
By the second week, her rhinitis did not show any allergic symptoms. Pain in her right shoulder disappeared completely. The most exciting thing was that her menstrual cycle returned to normal. After another two weeks of Qigong practice, she visited her doctor in early June and was told that her brain tumor could not be diagnosed. She went back to Hong Kong in July and had several internal secretion tests. The results were all normal. Today, Ms. Chang is healthy and is enjoying her work again. For Master Wu, such a miracle resulting from Qigong practice is not unusual, and it is not the first time he has seen this kind of miracle…
