An Inmate in Taiwan: I'm So Grateful for the Chance to Learn Falun Dafa
2007-01-19
I have improved my character and understanding through studying the Falun Gong teachings and practising the Falun Gong exercises. I have also gradually let go of some of my attachments. For a long time I was not able to get along with other prison inmates. Now due to my practising Falun Dafa, I adhere myself to follow the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance (Zhen-Shan-Ren). Whenever someone needs help, I will try my best to give him a hand. -
Studying the Falun Gong Teachings Allows Me to Understand the Inner Meaning of Falun Dafa Cultivation
2007-01-17We could not have persisted in the group study of the Falun Gong teachings, the Fa, in Kumamoto City without the great effort of the local Chinese practitioners. Since the Japanese practitioners don’t know the Chinese language, this form of group study in Japanese is a precious treasure to our local Japanese practitioners. With regular improvements in our understandings of the Fa, however busy we may be, many of us actively attend the group study. -
Why I was Feeling So Irritable
2007-01-17I have been in an irritable mood for a long time, and it has not been eliminated. This kind of irritable mood manifests in different aspects of cultivation practise. It even becomes habitual, which is not easy to perceive. It is not merely having a bad temper. Behind it are many hidden attachments. -
Witnessing Miracles in the Five Months Since I Began to Practise Falun Dafa
2007-01-16This February I had an opportunity to read Zhuan Falun. I was immediately fascinated by the principles in the book. Although there were things that I didn't understand, my feeling then was that everything I'd been searching for in my life was in the book. I really enjoyed reading it, but I was hesitant to walk away from church to practise Falun Gong. I'd already changed religious practices four times. -
Western Practitioner: My Journey to Finding Falun Gong
2007-01-16I explained that in time Falun Dafa was going to make me a better person. I reminder her how much more calm I was getting; that I was no longer loosing my temper any more; how my language was getting cleaned up. I had stopped drinking alcoholic beverages and getting agitated. I attributed all these changes to Falun Dafa. I reminded her that, although we both were practising Christians for many years, nothing really changed in our life. Only Falun Dafa could change me. -
Work, Family Life, and Cultivation
2007-01-13My relationship with my son wasn't very strong. My wife was very worried about this and complained to me all the time. She also has a full time job and she takes care of the kids. She felt I didn't care about her, either. She was always waiting for me to be home to help her with the house chores. But most of time when I was home, I was either busy with duties for our media or working on other Falun Dafa related tasks. We experienced lots of conflicts at home. Balancing family and cultivation was a big challenge. -
Let Go of Preconceived Notions and Study the Falun Gong Teachings with Attentiveness
2007-01-13I realised that I often went through the motions when studying the Falun Gong teachings, lost my concentration, and could not pay full attention to what I read. The answer is now obvious. It was me, not the method that I mentioned earlier. It was my incorrect notion which made me behave like an athlete who tries to achieve top performance by continually forcing his body to the peak. -
My Four Years of Cultivating in Falun Gong
2007-01-12Four years ago I was a cancer patient. After cycles of chemotherapy, I was extremely weak. The cancer shifted to the lymph glands and the doctor, seeing my body so desperately ill, told me that I only had one more year to live. I obtained many materials introducing Falun Gong from Seattle Falun Gong practitioners. I read the book Zhuan Falun from cover to cover in just one sitting, and it was as if a lightning bolt had lit up my life and awakened my true nature. What is the meaning of life? I finally found the answer. From then on I decided to follow Teacher, and walk the path of cultivation -
Inadequate Study of the Falun Gong Teachings Is a Major Omission
2007-01-12Since Fa study is so important, we must put all our efforts and concentration into it! I think a practitioner who doesn't take Fa study seriously does not know how to practice cultivation, just as one cannot achieve Consummation by building temples. Personally, I think Fa study is not difficult but the key is whether we can truly understand the importance of Fa study. If not, we will get mired in tasks once our workloads increase. -
Practising Falun Gong Easily Eliminates a Stubborn Addiction to Smoking
2007-01-11Recently, I heard from a Falun Gong practitioner surnamed Song that her nephew easily eliminated his stubborn addiction to smoking after he began to practise Falun Gong. Recalling the discussions on the issues of smoking and drinking in Zhuan Falun, with great interest I interviewed this young man, Song Xin, on December 29th, 2006. -
Falun Gong Saved Me
2007-01-09My relatives were all anxious and sad, and they recommended major hospitals in Beijing. I thought to myself, "I now suffer from cancer and there is no cure. I would not like to have my daughters and sons fall into debt because of my incurable illness." But my desire for life made me not want to die like this. I then heard about Falun Gong and its miraculous health effects. I wanted to try Falun Gong, because I had nothing to lose after all. -
From Being A Christian to Being A Falun Dafa Practitioner
2007-01-07My elder sister practises Falun Dafa. She had repeatably tried to persuade me to start cultivating Falun Dafa, but I always refused because it was prohibited by the government. In addition, I even sternly forbade my husband from learning Falun Dafa. By 2004, I was bedridden. Unable to ingest anything not even water, and after four days without intake, I could only wait for my end to come. -
A Hungarian Practitioner's Understandings About Sending Forth Righteous Thoughts
2007-01-07For a lengthy period of time in my cultivation I took Sending Forth Righteous Thoughts as a daily routine, but it wasn't until I saw visions of my dimensions in my dreams when I began taking this one of the three things Master has asked us to do, more seriously. -
How I Utilise Business Travel Opportunities to Fulfil My Responsibilities
2007-01-06I started practising Falun Dafa in 1996. During the first five years of my cultivation, I was often required to travel on business. This lasted until my retirement in 2002. During my heaviest travels, I spent over 180 days a year on business trips, with the average being 150 days or a bit more per year. I want to share with fellow practitioners who are also required to travel frequently about how I did the three things while travelling. -
Remembering the Days When I Attended the Falun Dafa Lectures in Guangzhou City, China
2007-01-06During the classes, the auditorium was quiet and harmonious from start to finish. Everyone listened to Master attentively, not wanting to miss a word. We heard nothing but Master's resounding voice in an auditorium that held thousands of people. Practitioners came from all over the country. Some travelled from faraway places every day. Whenever we walked into the auditorium, we felt the compassionate and harmonious field.
