Searching Inside and Really Cultivating Myself
2008-06-24One day practitioner C asked me to help solve a problem with a computer. I went to C's home and solved the problem easily. C said that practitioner D also had the same problem and he couldn't solve it either. When I heard that, I felt proud of myself. On my way home, I searched inside and found that I had a heart for showing off, joy, and jealousy hiding behind my pride. These are all postnatal notions, not from my true self. -
Teacher Is Waiting For Us to Return to Cultivation!
2008-06-24Teacher has time and again prolonged the Fa-rectification process in order to leave people like me (those who know that Dafa is good but dare not come forward as true practitioners) a window of opportunity. I know that there are still many practitioners who are like the previous me. They are either wandering about in "regret" after making mistakes; are still unclear who they are cultivating for; are seeking an easy life and holding fast to the life of an ordinary person; or are lost in other human notions. -
My Understanding of One Body
2008-06-23Currently, a lot of practitioners are judging others by whether they have been discovered by police, and consider those who have not been discovered good, and those who have been discovered, bad. They don't use "Zhen-Shan-Ren" as "the Sole Criterion to Discern Good and Bad People" (Zhuan Falun). Because the criterion has been distorted, we are indifferent to other practitioners' tribulations and don't care about practitioners being persecuted. -
Selflessness Leads to a Better Result
2008-06-23We must quickly assimilate to Dafa and let go of our ego, to offer more sentient beings salvation. Almost all human notions - fear, hatred, grievance, the competitive mentality, arguing, boasting, jealousy, making excuses for oneself and so forth - stem from one's misplaced ego. Some of us can go to extremes in word and deed when someone or something infringes on our self-interests. -
Look Within and Treat Physical Interference and Persecution with Righteous Thoughts
2008-06-22hrough this process of the competition between the righteous and the evil, I felt that as long as we believe in Master and Dafa, we need not be afraid of any tribulation. Tribulations are all false phenomena. "When disciples have ample righteous thoughts, Master has the power to turn back the tide." ("The Master-Disciple Bond" from Hong Yin II, translation version A) -
Efforts to Clarify the Truth Using Various Artistic Forms Must All Be Upright
2008-06-22Recently, some Falun Dafa practitioners have been writing romantic novels to clarify the truth about Falun Dafa. There have been many discussions on this issue. As I understand it, writing novels is just one of many different forms of art, and that the same Fa principles apply to writing novels as apply to the creation of all other forms of art. -
Becoming a Particle of Dafa with a Pure Heart to Rescue Sentient Beings
2008-06-21I walked further and saw a man in his fifties who was mis-diagnosed with lung cancer and underwent an operation to have part of his lungs removed. He said the court ruled that he receive only one thousand yuan in compensation, which he could not accept. I thus explained the facts to him. He said he had a friend who also practices Falun Gong. I told him to follow "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance," to be a good person, and he will survive when calamity strikes, so there is no need to haggle over that kind of money. -
Turning Bad into Good by Transforming Notions
2008-06-21It shows the incredible power of our righteous thoughts in close proximity. I hope that all practitioners who are not imprisoned will deliver the thought to those imprisoned practitioners using their abilities, or inform them when they visit them in prison. Please tell them that they are comparable to Monkey King in the tummy of the wicked Princess of the Iron Fan, and that they are capable of completely eliminating the evil beings while in close proximity. -

Human Attachments Aren't Always Difficult to Eliminate
2008-06-20From this painful experience and from the many other cases of fellow practitioners suffering from cruel torture and losing their lives, I finally realized that we must have a sense of responsibility to the Fa, to fellow practitioners and to sentient beings at all times. By doing so, we will be able to walk steadily on our cultivation path, do the three things well and save sentient beings. -
Completely Negate All Tribulations Not Arranged by Master
2008-06-19Actually, at present, all serious "sickness karma"are evil tribulations. This is completely different from the "going through hardship and suffering" Master talked about. Of course, be it evil tribulation or "going through hardship and suffering," we all need to look inward, improve ourselves, and elevate our xinxing through the difficulties. The difference is that if it is indeed a tribulation arranged by the old forces, we need to completely negate their arrangement and end the persecution through our thoughts and actions. -
Prodigal Son Becomes a New Person After Practising Falun Dafa
2008-06-19After I learned Falun Dafa, I soon joined the group exercises and Fa study sessions. That period is a precious memory to me. It was during that time that most of my bad habits were cleaned out. I learned how to be a good person, and my family relationships became harmonious. My views on many things changed, and I decided not to give up on myself. -
Some Thoughts After Watching "The Loyalty of Yue Fei" by Divine Performing Arts
2008-06-18In today's world, as the moral standard has gone down rapidly, the global 2008 Chinese New Year Spectacular from New Tang Dynasty Television and the Divine Performing Arts group awakened the deep memory that people have of those good virtues like truthfulness, kindness, forbearance and simplemindedness. -
Understanding the Relationship Between Cultivating Oneself and Saving Sentient Beings
2008-06-18I'm a practitioner who has taken a detour from his cultivation path. I started practising Falun Gong in spring 1997, but stopped cultivating in 1999 because of the persecution by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). I stepped back on the cultivation path again on March 27, 2004. I had many attachments, spent very little time on studying the Fa, the exercises or sending forth righteous thoughts. -
Boldly Clarifying the Truth at the Police Station, the Police Subdivision and in the Community
2008-06-17t night, they changed guards. I told this new group of people about how the CCP is persecuting Falun Gong, and how corrupt the CCP is. They all agreed and even asked me questions about Falun Gong. They explained to me, "We have no choice but to watch you. If you leave, we will lose our jobs." I told them, "Our Teacher teaches us that whatever we do, we have to think about other people first...
