The Beijing Olympics and the 1936 Berlin Olympics - Similarities and Differences
2008-04-22
British newspaper The Times and some U.S. Congressmen have equated the Beijing Olympics with the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Not surprisingly, the comparison triggered an immediate protest from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). But what of the comparison? Let's go back and look at what occurred around the Berlin Olympics. -
The Amazing Transformation of a Hooligan
2008-04-21A relative of mine in his 40s used to have many bad habits. He was a hooligan in the village. He bullied and terrorized villagers and even cursed and beat up his parents. He drifted through life, doing nothing but eating, drinking, gambling, and leading a life of debauchery. I brought him the Falun Gong books and materials that explained how the Chinese Communist Party are persecuting Falun Gong practitioners. He actually started to read them quietly. Evidently he understood what he read because he purged himself of all of his bad habits. He even quit drinking and smoking. He is now a changed man. -
Falun Dafa Saved My Life
2008-04-20During the ten days I was hospitalized, I had not been able to eat or drink. Upon returning home, I could drink water. I started listening to Falun Dafa lectures on audio tape. Several days later, I could eat and get around without any medical treatment. My condition improved day by day. I used to suffer from arthritis and my hands were so swollen that I could not do housework. I had tried various forms of medical treatment but they all failed. After listening to the lectures, I could not only practice the exercises, but also walk two miles. Everyone who came to visit me thought that Dafa was so miraculous! -
Falun Dafa Healed My Leg and Gave Me a New Life
2008-04-16I first tried to change my temper. Once I encountered a conflict, I first looked within to see whether I had done something wrong or whether I had certain attachments. I became calm by tolerating and everything seemed in harmony once I took one step back. I gradually achieved it. I slowly let go all of my attachments and tried my best to conduct myself according to the requirement of the Fa. While changing my clothes one day, I noticed that my leg was healed! -
The Change in a Former Forced Labour Camp Guard
2008-04-10A few years ago he quit his job and went abroad to make a living. In western society, he came in contact with Falun Gong practitioners and became truly aware of the facts about Falun Gong. He learned that all practitioners are good people and that what he had been told in China about the practice were pure fabrications. -
FDI: Falun Gong Deaths Escalate as Olympics Approach
2008-04-10The speed with which Falun Gong adherents are being seized by police, abused, and turning up dead is alarming and reprehensible," says Falun Dafa Information Center spokesperson Ms. Gail Rachlin. "These are people who never should have been arrested in the first place. Arbitrary arrests, torture, and extrajudicial executions are no way to 'prepare' for the Olympics." -
Thank You Falun Gong
2008-04-09I am a college student who will soon graduate. It has been three years since I came across Falun Dafa. Although both my parents practise I had no interest in giving it a go or even learning anything about it. Now things have changed and I have come to firmly believe in benefits brought about by practising both Falun Dafa. Below is my personal experience. I hope it can help people to understand what Falun Dafa really is. -
Scientists Discover It Is Wise to Forgive Others
2008-04-09When other people ill-treat you, will you laugh it off or find a chance to take revenge? Recent research carried out by Harvard University has discovered that revenge not only doesn't bring any benefit to the person himself, but also does no good to the team or group, which also means that it is wise to forgive others. -
Thoughts about CCP Interference With the Divine Performing Arts
2008-04-08The CCP loses face throughout the world because of its criminal practices and attempting to have others be part in the persecution of Falun Gong. To get their way, they violate diplomatic conventions, interfering in the internal affairs of democratic countries, using economic relations as a bargaining chip. They wish to deprive people from enjoying true Chinese culture; a culture that they systematically tried to eliminate and destroy with Mao's Great Cultural Revolution. -
Falun Dafa Gave My Husband a Second Life
2008-04-07My husband recovered quickly. Now he can do some chores and also go outside and ride a bike. Our neighbours were all perplexed: Didn't he have cancer? How come he looks more energetic? His face is even rosy. I proudly told them that it was because he started practising Falun Dafa. Now our neighbours also come to my house to learn Falun Dafa. -
Chinese Communist Party Uses the Olympics to Cover Up the Persecution of Falun Gong
2008-04-06Perhaps for some, a convincing act of the Party's sinister intent is a mandatory liability pledge, which all of the regime's industry and commerce branches in Beijing were required to sign. The pledge listed Falun Gong as a "major target" for "strict discipline, strict prevention and strict control." It requires "intensified education and reform efforts. Those who cannot be resolved at the present, effective measures must be taken to solidly carry out administrative and control duties." "Reform" means forcing Falun Gong practitioners to renounce their beliefs. -
Catastrophe and Renaissance of Chinese Traditional Culture (Part 4)
2008-04-06During the process of human cultural development, some undesirable elements found their way into the process. This is only natural. The whole reflects both good and bad, beautiful and ugly. All must be represented to comprise the whole. Similarly there are people who believe in gods, and there are those who don't. To a certain extent, those who disbelieve in gods help to identify whether the others truly believe. The theory of mutual generation and mutual inhibition manifests in every aspect of our lives. -
Catastrophe and Renaissance of Chinese Traditional Culture (Part 3)
2008-04-05In Chinese traditional culture, harmony manifested not only from people's personal cultivation, but also from the the rule of the country. Harmony is a reflection of achieving a certain realm. It is the natural, interactive state that the people, society, nature, and universe tend toward. When the social atmosphere is pure, when people are steady and honest, when the government (the emperor or king) quietly rules the country and does not interfere with people's lives, when the policies, laws, rewards, and punishments are clearly followed, when the army is willing to defend the nation, the country is well-governed and in great harmony. -
CCP Uses Same Old Tactic to "Justify" Violent Repression - Party-Loyal Thugs Hired to Incite Violent Riots, Leading to "Justification" for Killings in Tibet
2008-04-05Tibetan monks recent protests of the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) tyrannical rule have been bloodily suppressed. This tragedy has shocked the world, recalling the horrors of the Tiananmen Square Massacre of 1989. In the fifty years since the CCP came into power, its policies have directly or indirectly resulted in the untimely deaths of eighty million Chinese people. The CCP is a wolf in sheep's clothing that kills people without even blinking its eyes. Only by breaking away from, giving up, and completely disintegrating this evil Party, can all the ethnic groups in China regain their freedom. -
Catastrophe and Renaissance of Chinese Traditional Culture (Part 2)
2008-04-04According to Chinese traditional culture, every time a natural disaster occurred, besides praying for gods' blessings, the people would reexamine themselves to see where they had not done well. Even the emperors "proclaimed their own faults." History books recorded that when the Shang Dynasty's founding emperor, Cheng Tang, was in power, there was a long-lasting drought. As the emperor, he took a bath, fasted, and then piously prayed for rain in a mulberry tree forest. At the same he also deeply reexamined himself for his mistakes in governing the country. As a result, it started to pour.
