  • With Compassion, Hurrying to Explain the Facts With Our Media (European Fa Conference 2003, Berlin)

    For a long time I had felt that the best way to clarify the truth and save people was to do it directly face to face through passing out materials, collecting signatures etc. I would even think working with websites, radio and TV was a waste of time. But now after I have gained a deeper understanding I have totally changed my view. Through being a part of the Radio program “Falun Gong time” ( A weekly program transmitted in Sweden) it has been a process for me to really get an understanding of how important and precious our Dafa media is.
  • Some Thoughts On Clarifying The Truth To Overseas Chinese 

    I feel the prevailing viewpoint that fellow practitioners hold about secret agents is still confined to the attitudes of everyday people such as “wickedness”, “injustice”, and “defence”. There is no intention of saving them at all. The best way to improve an environment is to improve ourselves. While some people say the society is a big dye-vat, we should ask ourselves why, after such a long time, we still fail to dye those secret agents with the beautiful colors of truthfulness, benevolence and forbearance.
  • Opening Speech for the 2003 European Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference in Berlin

    In Year 2001, the Gothenburg Fa Conference marked the beginning of the practice of holding two pan-European Fa Conferences per year, i.e., after the Geneva Fahui in the Spring, a further one is held in the summer or autumn of the same year. In 2002 we were in Copenhagen, this year we gather in Berlin.
  • The Basic Requirements of News Writing (Part 1)

    If one does not seriously consider one's readership before writing an article, the article will reflect this, and as a result, the article might not be understandable to all readers. There might be some words for practitioners, some words targeting everyday people, and some targeting those misguided people who persecute us. Consequently, the article may not have the greatest effect because it doesn't focus on one type of reader.
  • Genuinely Looking at Myself, Taking Steady Steps in The Final Part of My Path of Cultivation

    The state of slow progress or standstill is not like that of huge tribulations on the surface, but by constantly doing Dafa work, through constant successes and achievements, gradually, unknowingly I developed a feeling that I was playing an important and decisive role. Eventually I felt I was the centre of things, everybody else was a supporting role. Then I had a sense of self-satisfaction; therefore I wasn’t so strict with myself. However, all of these weren’t real. It was just my thoughts. I also felt I had given up everything; because of this I regarded studying Fa as finishing a chore. As I felt that I had nearly reached my peak of cultivation, naturally and gradually my heart wasn’t so pure. When I was reading the Fa, I didn’t have the heart of assimilating to the Fa or searching for my defects; this became the behaviour to prove that I was diligent. Therefore, the principles of Fa would certainly not be revealed. Thus, in return this made me feel that I had reached my peak. The quality of studying Fa was getting worse and worse. While I was studying Fa, I felt sleepy and tired. Eventually, I couldn’t guarantee the quantity.
  • My Experience of over One Year’s Cultivation and Practice of Falun Dafa

    After returning home I started to read the book and was deeply attracted. Master Li expounds the profound and boundless principles of Qi Gong. Falun Dafa is the great Fa of universe which cultivates Truth-Compassion-Tolerance. I thought that I had found the truth and meaning of my life. The original improper mindset in coming to only learn the five sets of exercises for securing my asylum application was gone. I decided to join the cultivation practice.
  • Placing Falun Dafa Leaflets in Every Public Library in Ireland

    I immediately became aware that this was the Fa working. We then considered the idea that the leaflets could be spread throughout Ireland, and if we were diligent in our cultivation and maintained a state of righteousness and righteous thinking, then everything would fall into place. It was obvious that a system of library distribution was up and running in each Irish county and it was wide open to be tapped into.
  • Returning to the Group

    To do these things well you must, have all sentient beings in mind and have a heart of compassion, so when things are not going well in your cultivation, and you need to get back on track, you think whether I reach consummation or not is not the major concern, it is that I am here to save sentient beings and I must do these three things well in order to fulfil what I am supposed to do and not have the selfish thought of, I must reach consummation. So all the things that are supposed to be done will follow on automatically without thinking about it.
  • My Personal Experience of Benefiting From Dafa's Amazing Effects

    I started practicing Falun Dafa on October 1, 1998. I practiced and studied the Fa, adhering to the principles of Truthfulness, Benevolence and Forbearance. My xinxing (heart or mind nature, moral character) was improving while my physical health was changing for the better: my neck became normal and the black spots on my face disappeared, the skin all over my body became smooth and delicate. I started to look youthful and felt energetic. The hospitals confirmed that all the illnesses I originally suffered from were cured.
  • Genuinely Looking at Myself, Taking Steady Steps in The Final Part of My Path of Cultivation (Irish Fa Conference 2003)

    In recent times, a series of xinxing problems arose, and I didn’t conduct my character well. Because I hadn’t upgraded my character, the tribulations became bigger and bigger. I indulged myself in small things, gradually they developed into bigger problems. For several times, I didn’t pass the tests. I lost my rationality, hence I indulged myself in demon nature; only then did I became gradually vigilant and start to examine myself deeply and look inward deeply.
  • Falun Dafa Cured the Life Threatening Blood Condition I Had for Over 20 Years

    In the beginning, I was just thinking to try it out, but after reading Teacher's book and listening to his lectures on video tape, I understood the purpose of life, why people live and how they should live. After continuing to study the Fa, I changed my thoughts a lot. On the subject of dealing with people and doing things, I did my best to follow Dafa's teachings and standard. My illness became better every passing day and I gradually stopped taking medicine. My illness is now cured and I do not take medicine any more.
  • Assimilating to Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance (Irish Fa-Conference 2003)

    I knew that Falun Gong was being persecuted when I was in China and my parents do know that Falun Dafa is good. However, Jiang’s regime persecutes Falun Gong, and has also spread slanderous rumours throughout the world. Under this pressure from the Chinese government, I didn’t get a chance to learn more about what Falun Gong was. Then I got a visa to come to Ireland. I knew a lady when I was in China and her daughter was in Ireland, so she asked her daughter to look after me when I arrived. I was moved by her warm-heartedness, I think she really is a good person. When I arrived in Ireland, she came to collect me from the airport. Since that second I felt I had a special predestined relationship with Ireland and didn’t feel lonely at all. Both this lady and her daughter are Dafa practitioners.
  • The Changes in My Mind and Body Since I Began To Practice Falun Dafa

    After I obtained Dafa, I eagerly read Teacher's books, like crops absorbing fine rain. I tried my best to follow the requirements of Teacher's books and kept studying Dafa and practicing the exercises. My body was purified and all the illnesses I had before disappeared. My mind also improved, and I didn't feel any pressure anymore. I could also take everything lightly and not allow things to disturb me. My colleagues and I were then like family members and we had a harmonious relationship. My outlook on the world changed completely. I understood why people should not do bad things, because evil will be met with evil.
  • My Sharing on Studying the Fa and Fa Rectification (Irish Fa-Conference 2003)

    I remember at the beginning of my entering the college, most of the Chinese classmates had never met with Dafa disciples. When I wore my Dafa clothes on entering the classroom for the first time, everyone went dead silent, quietly looking at me. I knew I needed to use my concrete actions to validate Dafa in the near future. Everyday I arrived the classroom a couple of minutes early, cleaned the blackboard and tidied up the desks and chairs in the room. I always warmly greeted my classmates first upon meeting them. I never got cross with them even if they did not respond to me.
  • Taiwan: Some Thoughts on the Rescue Petition Drive at National Chung Cheng University

    With the extensive media coverage, Hsiao-kai Lin, who was illegally detained by China, was eventually released. However, many mainland wives of Taiwanese citizens are still being illegally detained in mainland China. They are just good people striving to live up to the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance. It is unbelievable that these people are being treated as criminals.
