  • I Must Get My "Self" Out of the Way So That Master's Plan Can Unfold Before Me

    Being at the ticket booth has helped me to improve my endurance. At first, I would become tired and hungry after a few hours and would start to think about my sore feet or aching legs. Then Master gave me a test.
  • The Journey of Return

    Before leaving for the temple, I asked a friend who studied The Book of Changes to tell my fortune. The friend told me, "You do not need to become a nun; a high-level master will soon teach you." I asked, "Where is this high-level master?" "In northeast China," he replied. Northeast China is a very cold place. Despite the fact that I feared the cold because of my weak body, I decided to go to the northeast to seek my master.
  • Cultivating Oneself and Doing the Three Things Well in the Workplace

    Everything that we come across has a direct relationship with us. When we face an issue, if we look within, everything can be resolved. If we use ordinary principles to resolve issues, the problem will drag out for an extended period of time. If you seriously regard an issue from the perspective of the Buddha law, a problem really isn't a problem.
  • Becoming a Dafa Practitioner in the Fa-rectification Period

    After graduation from college, the influences from society polluted my mind, and I became ever more materialistic. But for some reason, earlier last year I felt bored with life, and tired of the daily fighting for my own interests. I questioned my reasons for being born, what I truly wanted from life. With all the natural disasters going on, I started reading prophetic books. The more I read, the more I felt life is short, and I should do something meaningful.
  • Western Practitioner: A Nine-Year Vigil in front of the Chinese Embassy

    In meeting with people, while clarifying the truth, or just in ordinary conversations, we hear comments like: "Falun Gong? Oh yes, Those are the people in front of the Chinese Embassy. I see them there all the time." We have also observed that after the CCP has done something particularly awful and the media has reported it, there is an increase in the number of people that honk as they pass by in their cars.
  • When I Am Affected by Fellow Practitioners' Attachments

    I was very angry. My husband stayed with me and we talked about my personality. Since I was little, I have had an attachment to being fair. I do not like hypocrisy and I wanted to be true to myself and at peace with myself. Although I don't have as many problems with other people's competitiveness and jealousy, I cannot stand hypocrisy.
  • My Cultivation Experience, Finding What I Had Sought For So Long

    While I was confused, floundering and not able to decide what to do, I met a woman who said she had practiced Buddhism before, but now she and all her six family members practiced Falun Gong. I asked her, "How is Falun Gong?" She had not yet replied when instantly Master installed a Falun in me. It revolved very intensely.
  • Being a University Student and a Dafa Practitioner

    I was doing all this work and going to Fa-study, but my heart wasn't there, my righteous thoughts were impure, and I was walking down an evil path. This became such a problem that it almost led me to commit the worst mistake a practitioner could make.
  • Practitioner Couples Should Look Inward when Encountering Conflicts

    Why not treat my wife as a true practitioner, use my righteous thoughts to support her, and frankly share my thoughts with her on the Fa? If I could pay more attention to my shortcomings, let go the qing, be compassionate towards her and improve my xinxing, how could I be affected by these attachments?
  • The Difference Between Being a Cultivator and Not Being a Cultivator

    Over the past few years, I could see more and more clearly my fundamental problems: My main consciousness was not strong enough and I could not let go of vanity and fame. Due to my vanity, I always subconsciously wanted people to admire me and think that I was smart, thoughtful, and insightful.
  • I Quit Smoking Thanks To Falun Gong

    When I read about quitting smoking in Zhuan Falun, I was so excited thinking that finally I could quit. With the book in my hands I said to Teacher that I must quit smoking. It was just like magic that I did not think about smoking the next day and it was easy to do. The days went by and I have not smoked since then. I did not feel bad or have any adverse reactions, and my colleagues were shocked to see me as a non-smoker.
  • Enlightening to Teacher's Hints and Righteously Walking My Cultivation Path

    When I started making truth-clarification materials, I came to understand the Fa principles more. It really wasn't easy to set up such a site. In the beginning, when I first created color materials, I was so proud that I developed the attachment of zealotry, and then my troubles started.
  • I Personally Experienced a Miracle of Dafa

    The changes in my body fully display the miracle of Dafa. Of course this is just the surface that we could see with our eyes. Miraculous changes also happened at a deep level; but it is not what one can see with the eyes. These miraculous changes are hard for ordinary people to imagine.
  • Clarifying the Truth and Saving Sentient Beings in My Hometown Village

    Through this experience, we realized that it's extremely urgent to save people, and we couldn't delay or let fear get in the way. We should make use of everything at hand and seize every opportunity to clarify the truth and save as many people as we can. Otherwise, it will be too late for regret once the truth is revealed to all.
  • Purifying and Elevating Myself in Falun Dafa Cultivation, Assisting Teacher in Rectifying the Fa

    The first thing I did after I escaped was to notify all local practitioners to send forth righteous thoughts for the practitioner who had been taken to negate the persecution. We also moved the Fa materials from this practitioner's home to minimize the loss of our materials. After that, I began to search within myself and came to realize many of my shortcomings, which included attachments to doing things, zealotry and the show-off mentality.
