Persistently Eliminating the Demon of Lust

2006-09-22

I thought to myself, 'I will definitely maintain my character the next time,' and I recited over and over Teacher's words from Zhuan Falun: "When it is difficult to endure, try to endure it. When it looks impossible and is said to be impossible, give it a try and see if it is possible." The second time, the same thing appeared in my dream. I still couldn't pass this test. After I woke up, I was very regretful again. I made up my mind that I would definitely pass the test the next time. So sometimes I failed the test, and sometimes I passed the test. I kept encouraging myself to persist, and eventually I made it through this trial.

An Elderly Chinese Lady Still Cultivating Firmly Despite the Persecution

2006-09-20

In my district, there is an elderly lady who has always been steadfast in her cultivation. Throughout her cultivation she has met many people to whom she has exposed the lies made by the Chinese Communist Party to destroy Falun Gong. Here I would like to share her good deeds with our fellow practitioners.

Studying the Falun Gong Teachings Is the Foundation for Doing the Three Things Well

2006-09-20

I felt like I was suffering great hardship and developed a very bad temper causing me to shout and even physically lash out at others. It is our infinitely compassionate Teacher who has saved me, who gave me the bliss of having a chance to cultivate in Falun Gong. I obtained a new life and began living a life anew as a moral person.

Discarding the Notion That Big Projects Equal Big Tests

2006-09-17

This mentality seems simple and logical, but it is very dangerous. Many of our practitioners who have done a lot of Fa-rectification work were persecuted because they had not overcome this notion and were taken advantage of by the evil. When we calm down and think about it, we will find that this is not only a human notion that refuses to part with the principles of the old universe, but also a strong attachment hidden in cultivators.

A Young Practitioner's Sharing on Memorising the Falun Gong Teachings

2006-09-17

At first, the progress of memorising Zhuan Falun was very slow. I could only memorise one section per day. I continued memorising the Fa at this pace until I had to take the high school entrance exam. By that time, I had finished memorising the first six lectures in the book. In the fourteen days before the exam results would be publicised, I recited the Fa day and night at home and was able to finish reciting all nine lectures

First Look Inwards, Then Fix the Machine

2006-09-13

Some fellow practitioners looked inward at themselves first to search for their own issues and see if there was any problem with their xinxing or their character. Then they tried to fix the machines. This way, sometimes the machines would fix themselves because we cultivated ourselves. However, some other practitioners only looked at the machines instead of looking inward at themselves. Even when they finally fixed the machines, the machines might still have some minor problems. Some machines broke down completely and caused losses.

Cultivators in the Mountainous Countryside of China

2006-09-13

These practitioners are highly disciplined and they measure themselves against the standards of the Fa in whatever they do and with whomever they interact with. Be it their neighbours or relatives, they are courteous, kind and gentle to others and are willing to lend a helping hand to the needy. Their actions and deeds became a role model for the people in the surrounding villages.

Western Practitioner: Treating Oneself as a Cultivator

2006-09-10

In recent months I moved to a new area and got involved in many Falun Dafa related projects. Because of having various skills, I became incredibly busy and felt myself getting stretched further and further. I was working on so many things that most weren't getting done well and some weren't getting done at all. Meanwhile, my Fa study became less and the quality was poorer because I could not stay focused. This battle went on for too long before I started to really look inside and assess the situation.

My Unusual Experience of Coming to Practise Falun Gong Whilst Been in Prison

2006-09-10

Tang Yaqi was sent to the Masanjia Forced Labour Camp within twenty days of finishing her forced labour. This implied that they wouldn’t release her after she completed her term. At the moment when Tang Yaqi left our ward, I collapsed. I had a hard time seeing that she would not be set free and felt anxious for not having other practitioners be with me. Since I had only started cultivation one month prior, there were many cultivation things I didn’t understand. But in less than twenty minutes, another practitioner came in. You can’t imagine how happy I was.

Taking Advantage of Every Chance to Expose the Illegal Persecution

2006-09-07

When I was detained in the detention centre, I met many police officers. Now two of them have withdrawn from the CCP, and many have read the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party . I have met all kinds of people, such those that replace the liquefier, collect rags, decorate houses, and collect the fees for water and electricity. I have talked to Buddhists visiting me and even a tattooed young lady with no hair. Whoever I meet, I clarify the truth to them and deliver the truth clarifying materials and the Nine Commentaries.

On Teacher's Poem "Tathagata"

2006-09-07

While I was studying Teacher's poem "Tathagata" (from Hong Yin II), I gained a new understanding of the poem and on how to use properly and freely the wisdom given to us by Falun Dafa to save sentient beings and help former practitioners that stopped practising.

Western Practitioner: Cultivating Through Music

2006-09-06

A few years later, though, I began thinking more and more: I played music for so long back then. How can I use this skill to validate the Law and save sentient beings? I thought about forming a band to play music and clarify the truth, but that didn't seem practical at the time and I didn't really want to promote modern music anyway. Yet I had some classical percussion training--I just didn't know how to use it.

Police Officer in Chinese Detention Centre Reveals What He Witnessed

2006-09-06

In fact, many practitioners suffered from brutal beatings when they were arrested by the police in Beijing. The vicious police officers spared no one. An older woman in her 60s was severely beaten by cruel police officers when she was arrested. After a few days, when she was sent here from Beijing to be detained, her right eye was still black from the beatings. Many of my fellow officers shook their heads in disgust at the brutality they witnessed from other officers.

My Experience with Sickness Karma

2006-09-05

I read Master's "Teaching the Fa in the City of Los Angeles" again today. One of the questions asked in the lecture was about sickness karma. Some practitioners in my area have used ordinary methods to deal with sickness karma. I would like to share my cultivation experiences regarding sickness karma.

Be Clear-Minded When Having Thoughts That Are Not In Line with the Falun Gong Teachings

2006-09-05

In my opinion, we practitioners from China should follow the direction of the Minghui/Clearwisdom website and treat "news," such as a practitioner's arrest or being sentenced to labour camp, or a practitioner's illness or death, as cultivation experience--that is, as practitioners, we didn't hear about the "news" by coincidence. It doesn't matter what other people say. If our minds waver, then it's time we find that human attachment and get rid of it.
