  • Letting Go of Attachments, Purifying in Dafa

    It is not easy to be a coordinator. From a human perspective, I lacked the necessary skills, but I believed that the Fa could change me and I could do well from the standpoint of the Fa. However, I have too many attachments, some of which I realize and others that are still intangible to me. So, I am still trudging.
  • Have Righteous Thougts not Human Thoughts

    The police forcibly dragged me into a police vehicle and wanted to take me to a mental hospital to check whether I had a mental problem or not. I didn't cooperate with them and sat in the vehicle without coming out. My husband came over to threaten me.
  • Gradually Eliminating the Attachment of Fear in Genuine Cultivation

    After I told him the importance of quitting the CCP and such, he understood me, and repeatedly said, "I want to quit. I want to quit!" After that, he held his hands right there on the street, bowed to the sky, and said loudly, "Buddhas in the heaven above, I've quit the Young Pioneers. I have quit the Young Pioneers."
  • What Master Wants Is Our Holistic Improvement

    At that time, a plumbing pipe in my kitchen was clogged and my son could not fix it no matter how hard he tried. I suddenly realized that besides my looking inward, I should also kindly point out others' shortcomings. So I have come to the understanding that just looking inward is not enough, as my selfishness was mixed into this looking inward.
  • Former Mischievous Child Becomes the Best Student in His Grade

    He fought and hit others and cursed at people. His parents tried to teach him good behaviour and often spanked him. I treated him kindly and told him the reason for being a good person. He felt my compassion, and his little heart gradually grew a respect for Falun Dafa. He often asked me to tell him more stories about cultivation.
  • Cultivation Path

    When there are no customers, I study the Fa. The more I study, the more tranquil I feel. I am not bothered by anything in my surroundings, and I feel like I am in a beautiful place without anyone else around. There is only my consciousness studying the Fa. Words cannot fully describe the feeling
  • Power of Dafa Changed Me

    The Epoch Times is every practitioner's concern. Some may only be able to support with righteous thoughts and that's great, others may be able to join the effort hands on as well and that's even better.
  • We Should Not "Adhere to Precepts with Pursuit"

    When I clarify the facts to people, sometimes I don't hold a pure heart or am not completely selfless. Instead, from time to time, "self" still comes up, as if saving sentient beings were for "accomplishing a task" and for "consummation." Isn't this "adhering to precepts with pursuit?"
  • Looking Within to Eliminate Tenacious Human Notions

    Every day I tried to eliminate my deviated notions, which originated from the Party culture. However, when I encountered problems, I always used my deviated human notions to find excuses for myself, and I found many human notions and attachments that do not conform with the Fa.
  • Group Fa Study Is Not about Quantity

    During group Fa study we spend most of the time reading the Fa and we even extend the time in order to complete a reading. I think this is going to extremes. Of course, the time used for Fa study should be longer than sharing, but it doesn't mean we can ignore sharing.
  • Look Inward, Don't Lose Your Opportunity

    "The other fellow waiting for coal is responsible for arresting Falun Gong practitioners. Keep your voice down." I replied, "I am not afraid of him, because he is just someone who does not know what Falun Gong is about. Once he understands the true nature of Falun Gong, he will act differently."
  • It Is Our Attachments That Can't Take Criticism

    Teacher often gives us hints via other practitioners or even everyday people. We should be humble and be willing to listen to anyone's criticism. When someone says anything about us, we should think it over and look within to see if we really do have that problem. Looking inward unconditionally is true cultivation!
  • I Eliminated My Attachment After Reading a Fellow Practitioner's Article

    In the last six months, I have read through all of Master's lectures twice and memorized Zhuan Falun two times. However, regardless of how much I study the Fa, if I don't conduct myself according to Master's teachings and according to the principles of the Fa, what was the Fa study for?
  • No Longer Controlled by Sentimentality

    Even someone like me who has been deeply lost has made it through, so please have faith: there is no attachment that cannot be severed and there is no test that cannot be passed. Doing the three things well is an effective way to quickly remove attachments.
  • Electronic Games Bring Harm to Those that Play Them

    Sometimes, when it was time to send righteous thoughts, although I erected my palm to send righteous thoughts, some game scenes would occur in my mind from time to time. Later, I realized my state was not right, I decided to give it up. After reading some articles by fellow practitioners, I further realized I should not touch those games.
