  • On Teacher's Poem "Tathagata"

    While I was studying Teacher's poem "Tathagata" (from Hong Yin II), I gained a new understanding of the poem and on how to use properly and freely the wisdom given to us by Falun Dafa to save sentient beings and help former practitioners that stopped practising.
  • Western Practitioner: Cultivating Through Music

    A few years later, though, I began thinking more and more: I played music for so long back then. How can I use this skill to validate the Law and save sentient beings? I thought about forming a band to play music and clarify the truth, but that didn't seem practical at the time and I didn't really want to promote modern music anyway. Yet I had some classical percussion training--I just didn't know how to use it.
  • Police Officer in Chinese Detention Centre Reveals What He Witnessed

    In fact, many practitioners suffered from brutal beatings when they were arrested by the police in Beijing. The vicious police officers spared no one. An older woman in her 60s was severely beaten by cruel police officers when she was arrested. After a few days, when she was sent here from Beijing to be detained, her right eye was still black from the beatings. Many of my fellow officers shook their heads in disgust at the brutality they witnessed from other officers.
  • My Experience with Sickness Karma

    I read Master's "Teaching the Fa in the City of Los Angeles" again today. One of the questions asked in the lecture was about sickness karma. Some practitioners in my area have used ordinary methods to deal with sickness karma. I would like to share my cultivation experiences regarding sickness karma.
  • Be Clear-Minded When Having Thoughts That Are Not In Line with the Falun Gong Teachings

    In my opinion, we practitioners from China should follow the direction of the Minghui/Clearwisdom website and treat "news," such as a practitioner's arrest or being sentenced to labour camp, or a practitioner's illness or death, as cultivation experience--that is, as practitioners, we didn't hear about the "news" by coincidence. It doesn't matter what other people say. If our minds waver, then it's time we find that human attachment and get rid of it.
  • The Arrest of Lawyer Gao Zhisheng Clearly Reveals the Evil Nature of the Chinese Communist Party

    Gao Zhisheng is innocent. The real criminal violating the law is none other than the Chinese Communist regime that has incarcerated Attorney Gao and placed his family members under house arrest. Many conscientious people inside and outside of China have signed a petition to condemn the atrocities committed by the CCP and demand the release of lawyer Gao. Numerous overseas organisations have also held rallies to voice their support for this lawyer and to demand his release.
  • A Dying Woman Recites "Falun Dafa is Good" and Regains Health Overnight

    They told her relatives that she was almost at her last gasp. They also told her relatives to prepare for her funeral affairs.All of her relatives went to the hospital. When it seemed that all was lost, a relative who is a Falun Dafa practitioner told the other relatives to recite "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance are good" in their hearts. The practitioner also told the old woman to recite "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance are good".
  • Article from the UK Fa Conference: Looking Inward so as to Improve Amidst Conflicts and Tensions

    During these days of activities in Edinburgh, I came across several conflicts and tensions with other practitioners. Although they appeared to be different, I found all these conflicts resulted from my own selfishness, my being wronged, my contribution, my tiredness, my reputation and other factors relevant to myself. Because of these attachments, I have unpleasant arguments with others, which can sometimes bother me for quite a long while. I have realised these attachments but find them hard to root out.
  • Article from the UK Fa Conference: Exposing the Persecution at Downing Street

    In that environment, the officials who passed by grew more and more friendly; wanting to accept our handouts, whilst the number of people who signed the petition was also increasing. They were not only just the staff in the buildings, but also lawyers, ground force officers, administrative staff and nobility. The interesting thing is I do not know many celebrities in Britain, but once a fellow practitioner told me that one of the quite famous ministers had accepted our handout.
  • The Persecution That I Experienced: the Chinese Communist Party's Deceit and Lies in the International Investigation

    The CCP plotted to deceive the investigators of international organisations by all means at their disposal. I would like to document the persecution that I experienced during the time when Mr. Manfred Nowak, the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture, visited Beijing Haidian Detention Centre for investigation and when the UN International Labour Organisation visited Beijing Tuanhe Forced Labour Camp to expose the CCP's ploys when faced with investigations from international organisations.
  • Being Kind to Fellow Chinese People

    The truth is that we Falun Gong practitioners do not clarify the truth to fellow Chinese people in order to vent our grief and anger. We are by no means trying to be heroes. This does not mean we have nothing to lose or that we don't know the value of freedom and life. We are willing to risk our personal freedom, welfare and life to persevere in clarifying the truth to the Chinese people for one purpose and one purpose only: to be kind to our fellow Chinese people.
  • Incidents of Police Officers in China Supporting Falun Gong Practitioners

    Falun Gong practitioners have been explaining the facts about Falun Gong to the public and exposing the lies of the Chinese Communist Party with righteous thoughts and righteous deeds. They have helped many people come to know the facts and support Falun Gong. Among them are many police officers. The following are some examples of police officers who have learnt the truth and who now support Falun Gong practitioners.
  • England: Every Thought Needs to be Righteous

    The next day however, my face was badly swollen. Of course, this fear had manifested and I realised my loophole. My fear was that my husband would want me to go to the doctor or take medicine, and I knew that this situation was not about the physical manifestation, but about the old forces taking advantage of my incorrect thoughts.
  • England: Experience of Sickness Karma and Failure to Respond to its Promptings

    On being introduced to Falun Gong in 1999 I paid no particular attention to our obligation to regard disease not in health terms but as prompting us to look within for gaps and unperceived attachments. Within my cultivation I mistakenly considered our obligation to forebear/endure to mean purely passive acceptance, without taking into account the parallel requirements to eliminate in righteous thoughts demonic interference, and to search within.
  • England: My Experiences Distributing the Epoch Times

    My name is Joanna, I got involved with the Epoch Times in early 2005 and started to coordinate the distribution. It got off to quite a shaky start as I had never been in a position of responsibility before. I had quite a big attachment to relying on others and I felt that it was the duty of everyone else to rally round and get involved. I had a very bad mentality – combative and blameful of others who didn’t help.
