  • The Stories of Two Remarkable Young People in China

    She said to me: "Auntie, I want to donate some money for practitioners to validate Dafa too, may I?" I said: "It is good enough that you have such a heart. I am proud of you. But you are too young to make any money." She stuck her hand out and opened her palm with five yuan in it, in small bills. It was snack money that she had saved up. Later I donated this precious five yuan and the money her mother had given to the Dafa information site.
  • Local Villager Suggests Best Places to Post Truth-clarifying Flyers

    It was around midnight when we arrived at the second village. When we were posting the flyers there, an elderly villager appeared in front of us and asked curiously, "What are you doing?" We told him, "We are Falun Gong practitioners, we are posting our truth-clarifying flyers." The villager asked us for some materials. Unfortunately we did not have any with us other than the homemade flyers. When we told him this, he said, "Can I have a flyer, then?"
  • Special Report: Enduring Tribulations and Celebrating the Principle of Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance

    On May 13, the world welcomed the fifth annual World Falun Dafa Day. This day was founded at the requests of Falun Gong, also called Falun Dafa, practitioners around the world and gives all people an opportunity to appreciate Falun Dafa and the principle of Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance.
  • Strange Disease of A PhD Student at Purdue University Cured Through Practising Falun Gong

    My parents are close to 60 years old: they had to support themselves and my younger brother and sister with their limited pension. It would be a big burden on them if they were to pay the medical costs caused by my disease. I thought of suicide. I decided to travel to the Grand Canyon. There I panned to end my life by jumping down from a cliff. I wrote a will and searched the internet at the same time to book a ticket to the Grand Canyon. At that time, I was full of despair because of the pain I was suffering.
  • Terminal Liver Disease Disappears after a Few Months of Practicing Falun Gong

    During my time of almost complete despair, one of my relatives introduced Falun Gong to me. It was December 2002. I learned the Falun Gong exercises, and my health began to get better and better. With the support and encouragement of my family, I practiced Falun Gong cultivation very diligently. The illness miraculously disappeared after only a few months of the practice! During this time I spent no money at all on my illness. I am so lucky to practice Falun Gong.
  • Seeing Teacher in Person; "Continue Cultivating with Renewed Diligence and Vitality"

    After every lecture, Teacher would instruct us in the Falun Gong exercises. As we practiced the newly learned exercises, Teacher would slowly walk around the entire stadium, checking on us at the same time. That stadium must have accommodated up to a thousand people, but everyone was so quiet, and I could sense Teacher's soft gaze falling on each of us. Every day before class began, many senior practitioners would stand outside the stadium awaiting Teacher's arrival. At the time, I never realised just how precious this time was!
  • Some Party Officials and Magistrates No Longer Willing to Participate in the Persecution of Falun Dafa

    Now, because the authorities are seeing the handling of Falun Gong cases as more problematic, the police are sending the practitioners back to their home counties' police stations. When a family member went to the police station with a blanket for the practitioner, the police at the detention centre told him, "We really don't know what to do. Our Party Committee and magistrates don't want to handle these affairs anymore. They are afraid that they'll handle it incorrectly and face the consequences in the future."
  • Despite the Ups and Downs Falun Gong Practitioners Still Stand Firm After Their Twelve Year Journey of Safeguarding Dafa

    A free environment is required for Falun Gong practice, so practitioners can go to parks to practice in the morning, and study the Fa in the evening. Moreover, they often share experiences with each other, and Falun Gong books must be published freely. All they need is such an environment without official propaganda that instigates hatred. It is not a high requirement because practitioners do not require the government to spend any money or human resources. Instead, they only request the government not spread hate propaganda.
  • A Story about a Teacher Who Practises Falun Gong in Taiwan

    Another student often complained to me that her younger brother with poor heath and a bad temper was the problem of her family. Since she learned that practising Falun Gong can improve health and upgrade morality she asked me if I could teach her younger brother the exercises. Therefore, she took her younger brother from a kindergarten nearby after school to learn the exercises. Soon after that, this student told me that “Falun Gong is very effective” and that not only was her younger brother’s health back to normal, but his temper also became good.
  • The Wish to Save Oneself Trouble is Selfish

    This attachment has been deep-seated within me for a long time. It becomes evident by the way I help others. I always think of myself first. If it doesn’t cost me much to help others, I will agree to help. If I need to go out of my way to help someone, I will try to come up with a solution that is easy for me while only solving the person’s problem partially. In my mind I call it a win-win situation because I’ve helped others and saved myself a lot of trouble. Now that I think of it, I have never put myself in others’ shoes.
  • The Suffering of Children in the Persecution of Falun Gong -- Part 2

    students were forced to write the so-called "Guarantee Statements," declaring that they were remorseful for practicing Falun Gong, guaranteeing not to practice Falun Gong again, and promising not to go to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong, or to ever again associate with any Falun Dafa practitioners. Several days later Ai Dan was very upset, and the more she thought about the incident she thought to herself "There is nothing wrong with following Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance to be a good person. Nor is it wrong when I hope that my classmates and teachers care about morality and are kind and good people. How could I make a guarantee not to be a good person'"
  • Police Officer: "You Do Not Have to Leave Home, We Won't Bother You Anymore"

    When I met the municipal Party Committee clerk, I said, "You were there yesterday and claimed that the banner was hung up by me, the flyers were distributed by me, but where is the evidence' If you do not have the evidence, your actions were in violation of the law." I continued, "You have come to search my house and not just on one occasion. Why is it that you are ransacking the home of a Dafa practitioner' I have come today to get a statement from you stating that you ransacked my house, and then I will go to Beijing to file a complaint against you."
  • Those Having Predestined Relationship With Dafa Are On Their Way To Heavenly Homes

    On the second day of the class, she felt the Falun rotating ceaselessly over her head. My wife had suffered from more serious diseases than me. But shortly after she obtained the Fa, the hemorrhoids that had plagued her for many years miraculously disappeared, and other diseases such as insomnia, allergy, aching all over her body, fear of cold, and other physical problems related to her menopause disappeared in half a year. Besides, all of my diseases also miraculously disappeared. Our skin became delicate and tender, and we feel much more energetic than ever.
  • Placing Importance on the Number of Practitioners Persecuted to Death

    The same paragraph appeared in almost every report. I hope everyone who writes similar reports in the future can check Clear Wisdom Net for the most up-to-date number. For example, the death toll of Liaoning Province is 104 on May 9th 2003. We have to be responsible for the accuracy of this number. Owing to the fact that the death toll used in everyday people’s news reports mostly refers to ours, we ought to take responsibility for the articles that we write.
  • Placing Importance on the Number of Practitioners Persecuted to Death

    Recently, there have been a lot of reports about the lawsuits in the USA and Great Britain against Bo Xilai, who is known for persecuting Falun Gong. These reports have resulted in an effect of frightening the evil. However, there is one problem. The number of Falun Gong practitioners persecuted to death as quoted in these news reports all refers to the same source, reports issued by the “World Organisation to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong” in December 2003.
