  • Thoughts on the Mentality of Showing Off

    Because the mentality of showing off is so indecent, it become something for a cultivator to avoid at all costs. Also, because it is deeply rooted in the origin of things and has so many connections with other attachments, it is very stubborn.
  • Steadfastly Memorize the Fa

    By training myself to memorize the Fa this way, after four months of painstaking effort I was able to recite the whole book of Zhuan Falun within two days. When walking together with another practitioner, we took turns to recite each section after another and were able to recite a whole lecture within a short amount of time.
  • Falun Dafa Has Brought Our Family So Much Joy

    In today's society in China, my son can still be considerate and understanding of others' situations. I think that my cultivation in Dafa changed him. Although he does not practice Falun Gong, the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance manifest in the way he conducts himself.
  • Realizing the Importance of the Whole Body

    During the parade several Thai women in their thirties waved to us with great enthusiasm and shouted over and over, "Falun Dafa is good!" I saw that one woman had tears in her eyes as she shouted. Although this was just one face, actually, many sentient beings who attended the parade were moved and saved.
  • Walking Steadily on the Dafa Cultivation Path

    I conduct myself properly - doing things according to Dafa. I own a small booth at a market where I sell daily living necessities. My customers all come with different personalities, and make various comments. I always stay calm, and treat every customer with compassion, no matter whether they buy things from my booth or they don't.
  • Letting Go of Attachments and Being Diligent in Cultivation

    Every word she said was like a sword stabbing into my heart and agitating my nerves. I sat down in a meditation position with the conviction that I would safeguard every single thought of mine so that I would not be carried away by her no matter what happened. I suppressed my impulse to look outward,
  • Cultivate Away the Attachment to Comfort

    Envy and longing are all attachments, and what's even worse is the attachment to comfort. Whether you are diligent or not does not depend on the environment. It is up to your heart.
  • Help Those Who Have Fallen Behind

    For those who have been "transformed" due to their isolation, sealed off in mainland China, sealed off from knowing other practitioners, and unable to know the Fa and separated from the Fa, it is simply too difficult for them to change back on their own. This is why they desperately need our help.
  • Treasuring Sentient Beings Amounts to Treasuring Ourselves

    I said, "Then you should withdraw from the CCP immediately." I gave him an alias and said, "Let's use this name to quit the CCP, the Youth League and the Young Pioneer." He nodded gladly and agreed to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations. I really feel grateful for Teacher's compassion. It's true: treasuring sentient beings amounts to treasuring ourselves.
  • Cultivation Gives Rise to Compassion

    How could a practitioner be so indifferent when fellow practitioners faced difficulty? How could I call myself a coordinator? So I decided to take a look. I immediately found the problem and fixed it in two minutes. On my way back home, I felt bad about my low xinxing (character, heart and mind nature) level. As a coordinator, my priority should be determined by others' needs, not my own preferences.
  • Maturing Through Truth Clarification

    On another occasion, we arrived at a tourist site and ran into several guards and young men. They too had been in my dream. They were young police officers, and they were glad to assimilate themselves into the Fa. When my fellow practitioner asked where we would start presenting the truth, I replied, "Right here! Isn't this where Master has led us?"
  • Walk Well and Righteously the Final Path to Return Home with Teacher

    Whether at home, at work, or in other social environments, I always remind myself that I am a practitioner and should leave a righteous impression so that people see that Falun Gong practitioners are good people. In this way the evil lies will collapse without any words.
  • Treating the Exercise Instructions with the Same Reverence as the Fa Teachings

    Recently, I remembered that when we listen to Master's exercise instructions, it should be the same as when we listen to Master's Fa teachings. We should show respect to Master and the Fa, as Master's every word is the Fa. Master is leading disciples through his exercise instructions and with the exercise music. As disciples, we should strictly follow Master's instructions with a peaceful mind.
  • Clarifying The Truth In China And Dealing With Family Issues

    Looking within is a magical tool, rather than a watchword. From my perspective, looking within is cultivation. If you don't look within, you're not cultivating. If you don't know how to look within, you don't know how to cultivate. Looking externally is not cultivation.
  • My Good Friend Recovered from Cancer through Falun Dafa Practice

    Since she obtained the Fa, she has been persistent and diligent in her practice and Fa study. Before practicing Falun Dafa, it was very difficult for her to climb up and downstairs. After she started practicing, however, she lived according to Master's words, "'When it's difficult to endure, you can endure it. When it's impossible to do, you can do it.'"(Zhuan Falun)
