  • My Understanding Regarding the Issue of Praising Fellow Practitioners

    I felt somewhat uneasy when a practitioner recently commented that I had a clear understanding of the Fa principles. Today as we were preparing to study the Fa, the practitioner said, “I don't know why I can study the Fa better with you than with other practitioners.” I was just getting ready to read but became distracted when I heard her comments.
  • Overcoming the affection among family members by believing in Master and the Fa

    Because of laying down my human emotion, I have become calm and of fortitude. This state of mine has given my husband great confidence and encouragement. Now I can, in a dignified manner, not only study the Fa and do the exercises at home, but also openly make phone calls to mainland China clarifying the truth. And my family environmental has been finally rectified.
  • Learning to Be Truly Compassionate

    I came to understand many principles of the Fa and learned that to cultivate, aside from being a good person, I have to hold myself to a much higher standard. I should treat everybody with respect, care and compassion.
  • Regaining Sight after Thirty-one Years of Blindness in My Left Eye

    I wanted to be a good person, a true cultivator. From that moment, I started practising Falun Dafa and started a new life. Soon after, I started going to the practice site, and the pain from my illnesses were relieved, then disappeared. I have enjoyed a healthy body and mind since then.
  • Falun Dafa Teaches Me to Be Broadminded, Unselfish and to Take Self-Interest Lightly

    For me, cultivation practice in Falun Dafa has been a process of change in my notions. Prior to practising, I was shrewd and savvy. I did not think there was anything wrong with this and, instead, thought I was being smart. Since becoming a cultivator, I have looked at things from a completely different perspective.
  • Cultivating Whilst Promoting Shen Yun is a Special Privilege

    Cultivation is the key to success, our Master has taught us many times. So I try to follow this in my work for Dafa projects. There is not only the practical arrangements but the coordination and cultivation issues to bear in mind especially. In recent years I have worked on Shen Yun, becoming more involved as time has progressed.
  • Cultivation Is Very Serious

    Greetings, fellow practitioners. Recently, a number of practitioners in our region were taken advantage of by the old forces and were illegally arrested. I was very sad, but not because of human sentiments. After cultivating for so many years, and coming to the final stage of Fa-rectification, I hoped that fellow practitioners would no longer be taken advantage of by the old forces.
  • Dafa Connected the Pieces of My Life and Made Clear the Path Ahead

    Ms. Cornelia Ritter grew up in Switzerland. She was fascinated by Asian culture and always searched for a way to elevate her soul. She became a maths teacher and taught for 13 years. During this time, her aspiration for Buddhahood grew ever stronger, so she started to travel around Europe to places where the saints were born , hoping to find the Way.
  • Believing in Master and the Fa Can Change Our Conventional Mentalities

    In the past I didn't completely believe in Master and the Fa. Though I knew this mentality was not right, deep down I felt that way. I had read many times in Minghui Weekly and in experience sharing articles about practitioners asking Master for help when they were in dangerous situations, yet I was at a stage where I only read about others' experiences and did not have a deeper understanding or think much about it.
  • Looking Inward as a Whole Body is Helpful in Rescuing Fellow Practitioners

    Many instances of persecution have taken place in our area. Many fellow practitioners have been arrested, and many of us have tried a variety of ways to rescue them. How can we rescue our fellow practitioners efficiently? From three nearby instances, I've understood that only if we all look inward, eliminate gaps between each other, and elevate as a whole can we send forth strong righteous thoughts to effectively disintegrate the evil and rescue our fellow practitioners.
  • A Falun Gong Practitioner Wins Respect and Admiration at Work

    I am an educator. Since I started practising Falun Gong, I have conducted myself according to the Falun Gong cultivation principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. I have since identified many of my bad thoughts and overcome them. I continue to validate that Falun Gong is good by what I say and do.
  • Letting Go of Selfishness and Becoming Healthy and Happy

    I work in an administrative position, and I conduct myself according to Dafa's requirements. People here are very sophisticated, so I cannot slack off a bit; otherwise it would create obstacles for them to understand the truth. Over the years, my coworkers have come to respect me for who I am.
  • The Path of Validating the Fa in Literature and Artwork

    I have worked in the field of literature and art all my life. After the persecution of Falun Gong started, I was imprisoned and forced into homelessness to avoid further persecution. After I resumed my job, I was anti-social for a while until I enlightened that Dafa is a great law that is not restricted to any forms. My cultivation path has now become broader.
  • Due to Teacher's Protection, I Remained Safe and Sound in a Serious Bus Explosion

    I noticed that there were many people on the bus. Suddenly I saw white smoke coming from the back of the vehicle. Without realizing what it was, almost simultaneously, I heard a very loud bang which could be heard for a long distance. The body of the bus was blown away, and there was thick smoke in the shape of a mushroom cloud that formed in the air. The windows and doors flew out, and glass shattered and was flying in all directions.
  • Cultivating Away Attachments and Unconditionally Assisting Fellow Practitioners

    I am 60 years old this year. Before beginning Falun Dafa cultivation practice, I suffered from stomach ulcers, various aches and pains, and a multitude of other illnesses. I started cultivating Dafa in 1996. After studying the Fa at an exercise site for the first time, I distantly felt a big Falun rotating. I knew Master was adjusting my body, and from then on, I understood that this was no ordinary qigong.
