  • Asking Master for Help Also Shows Faith in Master and the Fa

    The man said, "Do you know who I am?" I said without thinking, "You are a policeman." He nodded, and then said angrily, "I am taking you away! I see that you have a lot more stuff in your bag." I said, "Don't do this. I am here to save you." He said, "I don't need you to save me. I am going to..."
  • Things Learned from Looking Inward

    What is happiness? Only when we are able to remove all attachments can one be truly happy. The division between the human and divine is only one thought. Those who cannot give up those things are truly naive. I am truly happy that I have gotten rid of a large number of the attachments that have hampered me over the past years.
  • My Understanding of Removing Attachments

    I got angry because I did not expect certain things to happen to me. I had a strong attachment to the "I" even though I knew I should let this attachment go. Since mind and spirit are one, I imagined the attachment to be a black body consisting of hate, anger, mistreatment, and anxiety.
  • Dispelling the Misconception that Practitioners Are "Doing Things for Money"

    It is laughable that whenever the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) finds they can no longer deceive, and quibble to cover up their conduct in the face of the continuous exposure of their crimes by Falun Gong practitioners over the years, they turn around and fabricate lies that "Falun Gong practitioners are doing this for money."
  • Finding the Wisdom of Life

    She started reading it and couldn't put it down. She liked it so much that she finished reading it in one day. She became very excited and exclaimed in her heart, "This is what I've been looking for since childhood! I have found the wisdom of life in this book!"
  • An Elderly Lady's Story of Her Family's Trust in Dafa

    They rushed to the kindergarten class and found their grandson safe among the few children that were alive. Gradually they got in touch with all their relatives and found out that everyone was fine. The lady's sister told everybody it was because of their trust in Falun Dafa that saved them.

  • My Insights into "Selfishness"

    While I behave as if I have a pure heart and stand aloof from the world, I am selfish inside. The mindset of needing to have "total control" over my life has become a big obstacle in my cultivation. I hate to do housework and am addicted to Internet games. I am so lazy that I sometimes even skip Fa study and the exercises.
  • A Young Practitioner Looks Inward

    Actually, no human attachments are good. They are there for us to get rid of. When we keep on cultivating, we will get rid of them and we will improve our character. Whether at home or in school, we should make use of every opportunity to improve our character.
  • Muddy Waters Turn Clear after Looking Inside

    I know there is nothing accidental on our cultivation path, so I did not mind her unreasonableness. I looked inside and realized that I had created trouble for her and benefited from taking their water. I should just use the water from my own well and trust that it would be fine since Master is taking care of his disciples.
  • Diligence

    Laziness is like a sticky and gummy liquid and surrounds every attachment to protect it from attack. Laziness is cooperating with all attachments to protect them from disintegration. I would like to add my understanding about some well-known effects of laziness that appear in our human dimension:
  • When Caring for Others, We Should Always Keep the Entire Body in Our Hearts

    Learning from this lesson, with pure hearts we should be more caring, learn from practitioners around us, and truly cultivate ourselves. This will enable us to better cooperate with each other and improve ourselves as one body.
  • The Indestructible Body Formed From the Fa

    The officer continued to question the practitioner, "Where are your children working? How many are there in your household? And what are their names?" The practitioner responded, "There are over one hundred million in our household, and they are called practitioners of Dafa."
  • Dealing with Tribulations while Maintaining Firm Belief in Dafa

    One policeman was so angry that he held up a steel pipe and got ready to beat me. He said, "If you don't obey my orders, I will beat you to death." At the moment, a person outside the window said, "Give it up! Even if you beat her to death, she will never change." When the policeman saw me staying firm, he dropped the steel pipe and left.
  • Cherishing Predestined Relationships With Practitioners Who Are Family Members

    My family member practitioner has been illegally detained three times. But this time, before she was arrested, I lived with her for a while. I never experienced this before. When I went back home, I cried and folded the clothes on the bed that she left. I accidentally found a note in a pocket. It was one of Teacher's new articles she had transcribed. After I read the article, my tears flowed again.
  • Thoughts on the Story of Horses Crossing the River

    This story made her realize the true reason for her sickness karma. It was because she left the group practice environment that Master set up for practitioners. She did not form one-body with fellow practitioners. If she did not follow the path Master arranged for her, she then walked on the path arranged by the old forces. She figured out the reason, and her sickness disappeared. The next day, she was able to walk on the street.
