  • Cherish This Precious Chance of All Eternity

    I had a dream one night in 2004. I stood at a river bank and many people were saying, "Who dares to jump into the river?" Suddenly a man passed me, jumped into the river and shouted for help! I thought: why did I not pull him back? After I woke up, I realised Teacher gave me a hint to quickly save people. I suddenly remembered that the man who shouted for help used to go to the same practise site as I did.
  • Emerging from a Dangerous Cultivation State

    One day as I was peacefully reading the experience sharing section in Minghui Weekly, the phrase, "the attachment of ridding oneself of attachments," in an article made me wonder. What kind of attachment is this? Is there such an attachment? Can a cultivator be wrong in getting rid of attachments? How can there be such a thing? I could not find the answer after thinking about it for a long time.
  • The Prerequisite of Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Actions is by Diligently Studying the Falun Gong Teachings

    In this way, my memory became quicker, and my thoughts were clear and agile when I memorized the Fa. Later I memorized word for word, and paragraph by paragraph. Moreover, after I memorized one paragraph or issue, I wrote it down from memory, so it would not be easy for me to forget. Meanwhile, I repeatedly listened to Teacher's lectures, and watched the lectures on video. Every time I did this, I learned more, especially when I watched Teacher's lecture on video.
  • Sharing Experiences About Sending Righteous Thoughts

    I send forth righteous thoughts before studying the Falun Gong teachings, before practicing the exercises, before writing articles, before doing activities to expose the persecution, before browsing the internet, before preparing and distributing materials, before going out the door, etc. In this way, we can eliminate evil about to disturb what we are going to do, and complete the activities smoothly.
  • Exposing the Evil with Righteous Thoughts is Saving Sentient Beings

    We advised him, "If someone from an international human rights organization asked you how your sister was treated in the forced labor camp, how would you answer him?" He said, "I wouldn't say anything special. It is not bad." After my wife then told him about what she had suffered in the labor camp, the brother-in-law said, "Under such a situation, if there were only people from the international human rights organization present, I would tell them the facts. If there were government officials with them, I would still say what I just told you."
  • Correcting and Improving Our Mindset Will Change Everything

    I thought, "First, I should give up my attachment to money. My getting my salary back looks the same as what an ordinary person would do, but I don't do it for the money. I do it because in the process I'll come across people and I must clarify the truth to them. Since the year spent in the labor camp is involved here, I must explain to them about the illegality and evilness of this persecution. I'll tell them however much I can, and I won't shove it down their throats; instead I'll just chat with them."
  • The Change in Chinese People's Attitude toward Falun Gong Since the Persecution Began

    Due to the persecution, I have been homeless for several years and have limited sources when it comes to gettign hold of Falun Dafa materials. During these years, I have been validating Falun Dafa by clarifying the truth face-to-face with people. From what I have seen and heard and experienced, I think that the general public has changed its attitude toward Falun Dafa. I would like to share my understanding in this article.
  • My Understanding After Reading "Pass the Deadly Test"

    Several years ago I experienced some setbacks in my cultivation. I was away from the practice for some time in a new living environment where I knew no practitioners and had no Falun Dafa books. My family members ruined my books. I could only write down on paper those articles of Master's that I had memorised before. But what I had memorised was not enough.
  • Recalling the Days When The Founder of Falun Gong, Master Li, Taught Falun Gong in Shandong Province, China

    Master Li came to Kenli County, Shandong Province to teach people Falun Gong in February of 1994. I was just checking in at the government-run Kenli County Hotel when I overheard someone talking about Master travelling by train in our direction. I remember it was around the Chinese New Year's Eve then.
  • My Thoughts on "So Do I"

    Therefore, when practitioners are together and one will say he has slacked off in something, other practitioners will echo, "So have I. I haven't been diligent in distributing materials either." There will always be people who echo, "So do I." Doing this made those practitioners who echo the others feel relieved, and forgive themselves. They think that there are other people who are like them. It's not just them who is experiencing this interference.
  • Pay More Attention to Doing the Falun Gong Exercises, Get Rid of Fatigue and Do Well the Three Things

    When I thought about this, I came to realize that I seldom practiced the five sets of exercises every day ever since I moved to Beijing. I generally practiced the exercises once every couple of days. This was the same for the fellow practitioner. I also know that many young practitioners from other areas, who currently live in Beijing, also have this issue.
  • Righteous Thoughts Are the Key to Overcoming Tribulations

    I thought in my heart, "I have experienced 10 years of all kinds of hardships since 1996, when I first started to cultivate. What I am experiencing is definitely not illness. But why am I experiencing such a severe state? There must be loopholes and gaps in my cultivation for the old forces to take advantage of. Where are those gaps?" Following Teacher's teaching, I looked inside myself, tracked the gaps down by following clues, and dug deep for each one.
  • My Most Joyful and Happy Hours

    When I was standing in line to buy a train ticket, many bad thoughts boiled up in my mind, but when I truly thought it over I was ready to let go of everything, even being expelled. I suddenly felt that my body had become gigantic in a moment and all the troubles that had bothered me a moment before turned into nothing,
  • Do Not Be Attached Under Any Circumstances

    I told my daughter again not to be attached to the problem. Teacher explicitly said, "With no attachment to anything, the path underfoot is naturally clear" (provisional translation subject to further improvement.) The change in the direction of the tool bar was not a big issue. We could find someone to fix it. "Even if the sky collapses, we should not be attached." When I said this sentence, I suddenly became awakened.
  • Treasured Memories: The Founder of Falun Gong Lectures in Hefei City, China

    I was predestined to participate in both sessions. As a volunteer during the second one, I had more opportunities to interact with Teacher, to listen to his earnest teachings, and to witness Falun Dafa's mysterious mighty virtues and powers. I will never forget those fond memories, and it is as if they just happened yesterday.
