  • Three Short Stories of Female Practitioner Zhang Li's Righteous Actions

    Falun Dafa practitioner Zhang Li, female, was a resident of Anshan City, Liaoning Province. Having great compassion, she was always very kind and considerate, and thought of others before herself. In early 2002, police broke into her home and kidnapped her. She was viciously tortured for more than five months. On many occasions, she was brutally beaten until she lost consciousness. On August 27, 2002, she was tortured to death. The following are three short stories of her righteous actions in restoring the reputation of Falun Dafa and clarifying the truth.
  • My Understanding of “full of great aspirations while minding minor details”

    After growing up, I inevitably learned all kinds of notions. Sometimes I had disagreements or a bad attitude towards my mother. But cultivation has helped me to break away from many concepts. I can see things from different perspectives. So I do not insist my own concepts, and measure others with my own concepts anymore. I have learned to understand others better and from their own perspectives, including my family members.
  • The Turning Point

    Human beings yearn for beautiful lives and strive for every goal all the time. However, if we recall the path of the life we have been through, we rarely find that we can determine our own destinies. Humans are so insignificantly small when facing their complex lives, complicated societies and ever-changing circumstances; so trivial that an economic wave will smash more than ten years’ achievements...
  • A New Practitioner Witnesses the Miracles of Falun Dafa

    At that time, my younger sister, younger brother, friends, schoolmates, and neighbours all thought that it was too unbelievable that a person who had a stroke could completely recover in 20 days. It was simply a miracle. They asked me what had cured me. I told them frankly, "It is Falun Gong that saved me! [Falun Gong] gave me new life. I hope you also come to learn Falun Gong."
  • A Letter to Teenage Friends From a Middle School Teacher

    But let me ask you, what do you believe in? When I asked this question regarding belief of the children around me, their eyes clearly told me that they have no idea and are ignorant about this. Do you know, this kind of indifference for the meaning of life and the purpose of one’s existence and incorrect understanding is the cause of one's life feeling empty and devoid of meaning?
  • My Trip to China

    After washing and dressing, I headed towards Tiananmen Square... I selected a central spot, stood there and started doing one set of Falun Gong exercises. When I was about to leave after finishing the exercise, I heard a policeman yelling, "Stop. Don't go. Stop her over there. Don't let her go." Several policemen quickly surrounded me. I stood there and asked them in an upright manner: "What is the matter? What can I do for you?"
  • What does the Media in Mainland China Really Say?

    As a matter of fact, the words and phrases used by the media in China are a complete reversal of the facts. The writer of this article has re-written a media report on the arrest of a Falun Gong practitioner to unravel the lies that the state-controlled media machine has created in an attempt to defame Falun Gong.
  • Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Actions of Falun Dafa Practitioners in Northwest China

    On National Day of 2000, this practitioner went to Tiananmen Square to appeal for Falun Dafa, and was arrested. She used her personal experiences to show that Falun Dafa is magnificent and sacred. The police officer was so moved that he personally accompanied this practitioner to the bus stop and told her to continue her cultivation after she got back home.
  • Righteous Determination in Falun Dafa Leads to Harmony in My Home Environment

    Before my cultivation, we used to quarrel with each other all day long, but now you see how harmonious our family is. The illnesses that haunted me for over 30 years have also disappeared...
  • The Importance of Our Conduct Outside The Chinese Embassy

    Although I was righteously asking for an end to the persecution and for practitioners in China to have their human rights returned I was troubled afterwards because I raised my voice and was not calm enough. Troubled that the embassy staff might have a negative regard of Dafa because of this incident, when most practitioners left and only myself and one other remained I asked the embassy staff if I could come in and talk to them about Falun Gong.
  • How a Pure Heart Moved the Gods

    This is a story of long ago about my great grandfather and his father, my great great grandfather. It is a well known story in my home town. It is most important in traditional Chinese culture that the young fulfil their parents’ expectations that they will be cared for in old age, and that they will be regarded with respect and listened to. This story is about this kind of virtue.
  • A Person I Met in Jail

    Wen was arrested and sent to detention centres and prisons so many times that it seemed he did not care about anything anymore. However, I noticed he was changing. Sometimes other inmates took advantage of him, yet he endured quietly. I strongly felt that laws could not change a person...
  • How My Commuting To Work Changed

    About a year ago I almost exclusively used my car to get to work, a drive of approximately 15 minutes. Using public transport would take one hour. Every time my wife had need of the car, I used the train. Since my working schedules varied, I discovered that at certain times, ever more Chinese students were travelling by train. A good opportunity, I thought, for me to tell them about Falun Dafa and explain the truth about the persecution to them.
  • Cultivating a Compassionate Heart to Sincerely Contribute For The Sake of Others

    I started to complain about however good I was at home, my husband would not be satisfied. He especially did not have a right understanding of Dafa. As I incessantly gave examples, I realised my lack of compassion towards my husband. In fact, everything I did for him was hidden behind a selfish heart.
  • Germany: An experience of “One’s practice benefits the entire family”

    A real example of “one’s practice benefits the entire family” reflected in actual life is that those in my family who are not practitioners seldom become sick, and I have gradually become used to this. However when I thought more about this, I realized this attitude is incorrect; I then thought that this is an opportunity given me to validate Dafa.
