Falun Dafa Gave Helped Me Live a Better Life
2005-02-14
After my sister-in-law left, I opened the book and started reading it. The more I read, the more I felt that whatever Teacher was telling us in the book made sense. I read the book twice without a break. In the beginning, the sight in my left eye was murky. But when I finished reading and closed the book, my eye was fine, just like normal. My wife and I were extremely happy; our happiness could not be described in words. Teacher is so compassionate! -
Thoughts on the Path of Studying the Falun Gong Teachings and Raising My Character
2005-02-13On the path of cultivating, I have come to understand that the goal of cultivation is to save sentient beings. This is a major difference between Falun Dafa cultivation and other types of cultivation practises. To save sentient beings, we need to meet with everyday people, and live among them with a similar lifestyle. Therefore, we should not quit our jobs, but rather, we should do well at our work. I also realise that there is no fixed answer as to how we carry out our daily work in ordinary society. In other words, there is no "fixed" or "concrete" answer, but our own cultivation levels determine what we should do. -
Be Understanding and Kind Toward Fellow Practitioners
2005-02-13After reading this, I recalled the conflicts I have encountered in my own cultivation. I dealt with some situations well, and not so well with others. I found that if I can always conduct myself as a practitioner in all conflicts, then I can improve myself. If I truly conduct myself as a practitioner, then a conflict automatically resolves itself because I am above the conflict and it therefore has no effect on me. -
Taking a Close Look at the Staged "Self-immolation" Case Reported by Xinhua News Agency: Who Directed These People to Set Themselves on Fire?
2005-02-12
With only a little reasoning, people can see from the above that Liu Chunling was never a Falun Gong practitioner. As Falun Gong practitioners, we want to ask, "Who told Liu Chunling to burn herself in Tiananmen Square in the name of a Falun Gong? Why did a military man hit the back of her head with a heavy object and kill her during the immolation?" -
Falun Dafa Gave My Son a Second Life
2005-02-12 I struggled in pain under life's pressures with the added torment of chronic illness. After I began practicing Falun Dafa, all of my symptoms gradually disappeared, one after another. I finally experienced the feeling of being free totally from illness. As well as improved health, my moral standards were uplifted through Falun Gong's emphasis on the cultivation of "Truthfulness - Compassion - Forbearance." Falun Gong brought so many positive changes to the way I lived, and my life became very harmonious and peaceful. -
Turning in Falun Dafa Practitioners to the Police Results in Karmic Retribution
2005-02-12In both Western and Chinese culture, the principle of karmic retribution, that is, being held ultimately accountable for one's own actions, is widely accepted. The fundamental teaching of Falun Gong is the characteristic of the universe, "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." The universe will reward actions that are in harmony with this principle, while actions such as beating, torturing and murdering people will incur karmic retribution. Stated another way, good deeds will be rewarded with good, while evildoings will meet due retribution. -
Who is Xue Hongjun, Referred to by the New China News Agency as a "Senior Student?"
2005-02-11Here, we can see how false and misleading the content of this interview is. If the "self-immolation" were not a total fabrication, why was Liu Chunling, who was on fire and could have been rescued, struck on the head by a heavy object and killed by the police? Also, 12-year-old Liu Siying, the daughter of Liu Chunling and the least-burned participant--she was given a tracheotomy, but she could still sing for the media. How could the authorities suddenly announce shortly after the interview that Liu Siying "suddenly died" after assuring the public that she was doing well? -
A 6-10 Office Agent in Shandong Province Admits the Persecution is Not Sustainable
2005-02-11That means we would be out 30,000 yuan for each practitioner. To transform 10,000 people we would need 3 million yuan. Where can we get that kind of money? At so many places, with so many staff members and so many helping and coaching personnel to do the work, if there is no money, no one wants to do it! In addition, the Falun Gong practitioners that have claimed to be transformed were all pretending, and we know that they will continue to practice when they get out. All we can do is scare a few cowards and force them to write something so we can get our reward money." -
A Leader in the Bureau of Industry and Commerce: "The Party is So Corrupt, We Really Need Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance"
2005-02-11I even gave a Falun Gong brochure to a leader of the Forestry Bureau and told him the truth about Falun Gong. He said, "Li, a young person who works in our office, also practices Falun Gong. He is a really good person. He relinquished his condo to others when our office gave out condos. Such a good person has been arrested by the police department and sentenced to two years' imprisonment. His sister-in-law also practices Falun Gong and has benefited from the practice. She is a good person too. I heard that the head of the local police station arrested her one day and she died the next day." -
Having Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Actions As a Genuine Falun Dafa Practitioner in the Fa-Rectification Period
2005-02-10Teacher clearly pointed out my existing problem. I was truly ashamed of myself and my cultivation state. I not only had attachments of "selfishness" and "egotism" but was also pursuing consummation, had a self-satisfied heart, thought myself good, and so on. I now understand and realise that I was in danger. Teacher always leads us and reminds us to walk righteously at all times. After clearing away interference and attachments, I was able to pay more attention to Fa study and gradually the bad state disappeared. -
Recalling the Days of Travelling with Master Before and After Falun Gong Was Made Public (Part 1)
2005-02-10In 1991, after Master returned from his visit to Thailand, we went to the Jietai Temple in Beijing with Master. At lunchtime, we ate at a small roadside restaurant. We all tried to pay for the meals after we finished eating, but Master told us to stay put and he went to pay for the meals for all of us. This touched us deeply because we all knew that it had always been customary for the disciple to provide for their masters in other qigong practices; this was the first time for us to experience seeing a master paying for his disciples' meals. Over a dozen of years have passed, but the scene of that moment still leaps before my eyes. -
Maintain an Unshakable Calm
2005-02-10We could not hear clearly the questions raised by people viewing the exhibit, and they could not hear our replies, either. I tried to talk to people as loud as I could, but to no avail. At that moment I felt really annoyed. I knew this was interference and that it must be eliminated by sending forth righteous thoughts. However, I also immediately saw my own frustration and irritation. I adjusted my state of mind and made myself settle down and not pay attention to it. Right away I noticed that things changed for the better and my interaction with people improved significantly. -
An Examination of The "Self-Immolation" Incident Reveals the Deceptive Practices of the Xinhua News Agency
2005-02-09Xinhua News Agency insisted that Falun Gong was responsible for the self-immolation incident. But there are many thousands of practitioners in Taiwan, where they share the same Chinese culture as people on the mainland. Why has no self-immolation occurred there? In Europe and the US there are also many Falun Gong practitioners, why has there been no self-immolation? -
Falun Gong Practitioners Braving the Snowstorm to Reveal the Persecution on the Streets of New York
2005-02-09
"I saw two Caucasian men come and sign the petition as well. One of them said excitedly, “I come from Argentina. I just don’t understand why the Chinese Communist government would do such a thing!” A practitioner explained, “The Chinese Communist government uses the media to launch its smear campaign to incite its people to hate Falun Gong." -
134 People Declare that their Words and Deeds Under Forced Brainwashing are Null and Void
2005-02-09A "solemn declaration" is a person's public statement declaring to the world that whatever he or she has done or said under duress or deception that was against Falun Dafa is null and void. Most of these statements have come from Falun Dafa practitioners in China who wished to express regret that, in the face of physical torture and brainwashing, they had signed documents renouncing Falun Dafa and guaranteeing not to practise again.
