The Story of the Blind Doctor, a Dafa Practitioner
2008-07-10
Sitting in his hopeless state, with nothing else to do, the doctor started listening to Master's lectures. After he had finished listening to the recordings from beginning to end, he felt that he completely understood the meaning of his life. As the blind doctor began his cultivation in Dafa, the lantern of his life that he felt had been blown out was lit once again. -
Strong Righteous Thoughts Whatever the Weather
2008-07-09It began to rain again when it was close to the time for me to again send forth righteous thoughts. The sky turned dark and the rain came very suddenly. A thought of going back home early flashed in my mind. "No," I said to myself, "a practitioner's decision cannot be changed so casually." -
Explaining the Facts to Students
2008-07-09Those of us Dafa practitioners that live near schools go there often to hand out information about Falun Gong and the Nine Commentaries. Before leaving home, I send righteous thoughts to put my mind in a peaceful state and dress neatly and appropriately to make myself look more like a teacher--showing up in this way ensures my safety. As soon as I finish distributing materials, I quickly leave. -
I Found My Well-Hidden Selfishness
2008-07-08What was the real reason behind this? I slacked off because of selfishness that was very well hidden. It was even hidden behind the reason to cultivate. My selfishness had determined that I live in a way that is beneficial to myself. I cultivate because cultivation is good for me. I picked the means of clarifying the truth that was beneficial to me. When I worked on a certain Dafa project, it was because this certain project was beneficial to me. I did not do it on the basis of altruism. -
A Letter to Practitioners Who Work for NTDTV
2008-07-07If we can bring this situation to the attention of the public and Eutelsat's peers, public opinion could hasten the progress of the situation. On the other hand, we should take the opportunity to thoroughly clarify the truth on a large scale and to save sentient beings. People should also establish their position with this opportunity. Look how many "chess pieces" we could save. -
Eliminating the Attachment of Jealousy
2008-07-07I understood the Fa principle that jealousy must be eliminated, and looked inward for this attachment. First, I understood that I did not respect my mother, and judged that I possessed more technical skills and knowledge. Having my mother work on the project caused me to feel that the validating Fa project was being taken away from me. In fact, this was the attachment of validating myself. -
An Unclean Mind Prevented Me from Achieving Tranquility
2008-07-06I had learned a lesson from my previous attempts to memorize the Fa, which met with failure. This time I would not try to recite the paragraphs I had memorized the previous day. I made sure that I memorized new paragraphs daily. My goal was to memorize the paragraphs for the day. Thus I finally finished reciting Zhuan Falun for the first time. -
From Tsinghua University to Flushing, New York: A Reunion after Nine Years
2008-07-06Suddenly, the unprecedented persecution began. On the morning of July 20, 1999, when we went to group exercise as usual, we noticed several police vehicles. That afternoon, we heard about the massive arrests of Falun Gong practitioners all over China. We were going to exercise again the next day but decided not to go to the same place--we wanted to go and appeal for Falun Gong. I did not see Gu Mengsheng after that. -
Visiting the Clearwisdom Website Has Helped Me to Be More Diligent
2008-07-05Every time I read articles by fellow practitioners, I can see my own attachments or notions that conceal ordinary human mentalities. Many of my questions are answered. Of course I realize that the website is not a substitute for studying the Fa, but reading the articles has helped me to look within more. -
To Get Rid of Attachments, One Must Study the Fa Diligently
2008-07-05 Whether we are doing Dafa projects or doing ordinary people's things, no matter how busy we think we are, we should never slack off in studying the Fa. Studying the Fa often, following the Fa and measuring things with the Fa, getting rid of all kinds of attachments, and maintaining righteous thoughts and actions--only by doing all of these things can we ultimately negate the old forces, do the three things well, and fulfill our vows. -
Stories of the Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Actions of Practitioners in Our Fa Study Group
2008-07-04It's your persecution that killed my husband, it's your persecution causing my child to have no father, now you're here still interfering with me." After listening to what she said, those of the CCP were at the brink of tears. Then finally they said, "We came here just to see you, nothing else." So, out they went. -
Diligently Improving Together with the Whole Family
2008-07-04When I found that other practitioners had helped more people to quit the CCP than myself, I felt ashamed and became even more anxious. As a result it had the opposite effect of what I wanted. This mentality affected me, and for a long period of time I failed to help anyone to withdraw from the CCP, even my relatives. -
Believing in Master and Dafa, Bad Things Become Good Things
2008-07-03With Master's strengthening, we turned their scheme of "visiting" in order to persecute us into a good opportunity to clarify the truth to the police face to face. Master taught us, "Whatever you experience during your cultivation--whether good or bad--is good, for it comes about only because you are cultivating." ("To the Chicago Fa Conference" in 2006) -
Destroy Old Force Arrangements with Righteous Thoughts, Rectify Ourselves in Dafa
2008-07-03While getting in touch with fellow practitioners in daily life, I commanded them, like the types of leaders of those among everyday people. I pointed out their shortcomings with acrid and mean language, not with compassion. -
My Experience of Quitting Smoking
2008-07-02 I would like to offer a word of advice to fellow practitioners who still smoke while cultivating, to eliminate this attachment. It not only harms your body but also gives people a negative impression of practitioners. We are assisting Teacher in Fa-rectification and are manifesting Dafa's goodness. As practitioners, we should meet higher requirements in order to save more sentient beings.
