The story of sisters Jing Cai and Jing Tian, currently living in Vancouver, Canada, tells how a harmonious family was fractured after the Chinese regime launched its widespread campaign of persecution against Falun Gong in 1999.
The sisters discovered Falun Gong—a traditional spiritual discipline also known as Falun Dafa—in October 1995, at a time when it was spreading rapidly across China just three years after being made public by founder Li Hongzhi.
Jing Cai, then 23, says she felt “enlightened” after first reading Zhuan Falun, the main teachings of Falun Dafa, which was sold in the bookstore she worked at in Shenyang, northeast China.
The next day, despite her “extremely introverted personality,” she decided to join others at the outdoor Falun Gong exercise site near her apartment.
A week later, Jing’s older sister, Jing Tian, began practicing, and before long her heart disease disappeared. Their mother, Chen Jun, a factory worker, had a similar experience. Just over a year after starting the practice, her illnesses, which included diabetes and cholecystitis, seemingly vanished.
