  • I Used to Hide at Home and Study the Falun Dafa Teachings, Now I Have Stepped out to Clarify the Truth

    I am 60 years old. In May of 1998 I was very sick, causing me to become extremely weak and to lose a lot of weight. A former classmate told me about the benefits of Falun Gong one day and I went to the local practise site that same night. Those first two nights, I could not complete the standing exercises or the sitting meditation. On the third day, a miracle occurred. For the first time in months, I felt clear-minded and comfortable in my body.
  • Walk On the Path Prepared by Teacher With Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Actions

    Upon starting a 15-day brainwashing session, I returned home on the afternoon of the first day. During the second month of the brainwashing session, I returned home after six days. One time I was arrested by the local police and was taken to the police department, yet I was able to go home after just six hours. I truly felt this was due to Falun Dafa.
  • Using a Birthday Party as a Chance to Let More People Know the Facts Leads to Profound Results

    The birthday party was bustling with activities, including a band playing music and drama troupes performing on stage. Almost one thousand people came to the celebration to enjoy the shows and to congratulate her on her birthday. Fellow practitioners used the opportunity to talk about the changes the elderly woman experienced after she started to practise Falun Gong. Her story manifested the wonders of Falun Dafa.
  • Recalling the Days when Master Li Gave Lectures in Qiqihar City, Heilongjiang Province

    Master told a practitioner next to him to buy some platform tickets for us. Actually, we could get in and out of the station without any platform tickets by presenting our IDs since both of us wore police uniforms at that time. We knew that Master charged the lowest fees for his classes and must have incurred a lot of expenses when he travelled nationwide giving lectures. Yet, Master spent his own money to buy us tickets. We felt very uneasy about this. However, we realised deeply that Master was teaching us how to be a practitioner and how to achieve the standard of a practitioner.
  • Regarding Safety Issues from the Issue of Practising the Exercises With Gloves On

    During the last few years I have read "Lecture at the US East Coast Conference" countless times, but I failed to understand what Teacher was saying. When practising outside we should wear gloves if it's too cold. Teacher wasn't just telling the new practitioners. It was meant for all practitioners. Practitioners won't get frostbite from the cold. Teacher told us this in consideration of the new practitioners in order to prevent negative impact to Falun Dafa. We always study and learn from each other, and the new practitioners will try to imitate what they see
  • With Righteous Thoughts, A Practitioner is Unscathed by Brutal Lashing

    In this way the cotton strip was worn out. The criminal who was beating me squatted down and said quietly, "Grandpa, please forgive me. It was against my will to beat you; however, if I do not listen to them they will punish me." I said, "We follow the principles of 'Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance' so we are all good people. I do not blame you." The criminal was moved to tears.
  • Coming to the US from China

    One day, several dozen police officers broke into our home and took mom away by force. I asked the police: "Why don't you go and arrest pickpockets and leave my mom alone? My mom is a good person. Why do you keep her in jail?" Later, mom fled from jail and had to live a homeless life. Then she was kidnapped and thrown into a brainwashing centre. The police took my mom away from me. How more inhumane could they be?
  • My Experiences During the Course of Bringing Jiang to Justice

    Even though each region has different conditions and restrictions, when practitioners in an area have the heart to file a lawsuit against Jiang, whether it succeeds or not depends on the understanding of the entire group of local practitioners in their coordination during the lawsuit. It will go hand-in-hand with the improvement of the practitioners involved, whether they are coordinators or plaintiffs, and their coordination with the lawyer.
  • Braving the Storm with My Head Held High (Part 2)

    Every time I saw Teacher emphasising that practitioners needed to treat each other with tolerance, understanding, kindness, and immense compassion, I would say to Teacher in my heart, "How am I supposed to get along with them when they are so attached to their own ways." I didn't realise that I was also being too attached to my personal views. I knew it wasn't a correct state.
  • Whatever the Situation I Will Carry on Practising Falun Dafa

    For these past five years on this road of practising Falun Dafa, I have experienced many difficulties and have navigated a rough, uneven path. I encountered many kinds of troubles and setbacks, but I also learnt many lessons, had many inspirations, accomplished certain goals, and steadily improved myself. During these years I also walked tortuous stretches along the path, which was due to my lack of Fa-study and because of ordinary people's notions and attachments that I still had not let go of.
  • An Amazing Predestined Relationship in Prison -- All Beings Come for Falun Dafa

    The gang leader went on to say, "When I was born, two old monks came to my home and told my parents, 'Your new son is our master, who has reincarnated in your family. Remember to bring him to the temple to forge a relationship when he is five years old. The boy will have tribulations and will go to jail when for six years when he reaches the age of twenty five. Whilst being detained in jail he will meet an older man who is the reverse of his age, in other words he will be 52. That man will tell him the most important thing. You must make sure the boy remembers this.'
  • Through Hard Times Teacher Guided and Helped Me In My Cultivation

    I began to talk about Falun Dafa and the real facts surrounding the persecution to my boss at the restaurant and to the other waitresses. I told them how wonderful Falun Dafa is and told them my experience of the persecution. After understanding the truth, my boss arranged a good environment for me to study the Fa and practise the exercises. I behaved according to "Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance" while I worked for the restaurant and I would often help others in addition to carrying out my normal duties. My boss saw this and gave me a wage increase and told me that he too would study Falun Gong in the future.
  • Correcting a Fellow Falun Gong Practitioner's Exercise Movements

    She met me at the train station and on the way to her apartment we had a chat. She had already being practising for a year, but because there was no practitioners nearby she couldn’t find guidance with regards to the accuracy of her movements. She told me she was afraid that they might be wrong. She continued to say that she was previously very sick, but then at the right time she was introduced to Falun Gong and since then her life has taken a new turn, her illnesses have disappeared and it is as if she were living a different life from before.
  • “Please Don’t Miss This Chance Again”

    A curious thing was that few people took his materials, but many people took my leaflets. He brought many balloons as free gifts for the kids. Those balloons were right behind where I stood. When I turned and looked at those colourful balloons, I felt as if they were prepared for me to be able to inform more people about Falun Gong and the persecution that day. I had a strong feeling that it was no coincidence that I had run into these people at the supermarket.
  • A Sixty-Year-Old Falun Gong Practitioner Learns How to Use a Computer

    I began to try making materials myself. Some practitioners avoided me because of their attachments or because they were scared. I decided to stay inside and make the materials. I felt bad now and then, but each time I thought of the practitioners beside me who had been abducted, beaten, and even persecuted to death because they had helped produce factual materials about Falun Gong, I shed tears non-stop. In comparison, the suffering I went through was nothing.
