  • How I Began Practising Falun Gong

    Through working with this family, I had two personal experiences that provide profound testimony to the supernormal nature of Falun Dafa. These experiences also changed my outlook on life. My previously indifferent, numb attitude and mentality toward Falun Gong changed.
  • Looking at Conflicts Among Practitioners with Righteous Thoughts

    In this matter, the malfunction of the CD burner was only one kind of interference, which would cause conflicts between practitioners to test their hearts. In any conflict, everyone should look at his own shortcomings first, and at the same time, eliminate the interfering factors with righteous thoughts. We should not be upset and point fingers at others.

  • Coming Here With the Grand Wish to Start My Cultivation and Fulfil My Vows

    My name is Tomek; I'm a Polish Falun Dafa practitioner. Even before I started to practise Falun Gong, I felt that nothing happens without a reason, and I saw my life as a chain of events which were leading me to the one righteous direction. I didn't see at first, however, the reason for being born in the city of Skierniewice. Some time after starting my cultivation, I came to realise how long ago I had actually started to search for Falun Dafa and the opportunity to fulfil my vows
  • Zhuan Falun, My Constant Companion

    Before I became acquainted with Falun Gong, I was interested in different esoteric practices and had spent a lot of money looking for an answer to my many questions. Over time, I had begun to notice more and more that these meditation techniques were not satisfactory, and I had the feeling that I was not evolving anymore. I eventually distanced myself from all those practices, and I ended up feeling very empty and in search of a real profound meditation practice.
  • Words From the Heart of A Chinese Government Official

    These Falun Gong practitioners would not disturb the social order or threaten others' safety. On the contrary, they follow the principles of Truthfulness, Benevolence, Forbearance, dare to give up their own fame and fortune in order to choose their principles, and have no fear in facing prison, torture, being homeless and losing freedom. They are comfortable simply living to safeguard their beliefs. These practitioners have gained respect and admiration from all people, including myself.
  • The Confession of a Policeman from Shengli Oil Field, China

    Recently, the police held secret meetings in northeast China and the "newest principles" for persecuting Falun Gong were delivered. The first was, "the impact of Falun Gong on society is huge and has resulted in a deeply negative effect on the image of the public security bureau." Thus, "the Falun Gong issue should be handled in secret, with no publicity and no spreading of any information, and with an effort to reduce the impact on the public to a minimum."
  • My Cultivation Experiences in the Ukraine

    One high ranking official stopped and told me, that what he read in the 6th issue of “Falun Gong Around the World” newspaper, he sees as a program for cultivation and reflection of the principles according to which we cultivate. He thanked us for clarifying the truth with our posters and our own explanations about the horrors of the persecution. He told us that after such explanations he called the Chinese ambassador in the Ukraine, on his own initiative, and asked for an appointment at an important political meeting.
  • Always Look at People with Loving-Kindness, Trying Not to Miss Anyone

    I continued to hand out leaflets to the passers-by, when I suddenly saw the elderly woman again. She was standing in the middle of the sidewalk, not moving, with her back towards me, approximately 100 meters away from where we were practising. At first I was surprised thinking to myself, “Why is she standing in the middle of the sidewalk and not going anywhere. Maybe she has lost her way, or has forgotten something”. Nevertheless, it seemed very strange to see her standing there for so long.
  • Former Engineer of FAW-Volkswagen Co. Ltd. Writes to the CEO about Being Persecuted for Practising Falun Gong

    From 2000 to 2003, at least ten Falun Gong practitioners were dismissed by FAW-Volkswagen Co. Ltd. for practising Falun Gong. The headquarters of the company in Germany keeps silent about such wrongdoings. A former engineer from FAW-VW of Changchun wrote to CEO Pischetsrieder. The following is a translation of the letter:
  • A Conversation at the Dinner Table, "It is Possible that the CCP Will Suddenly Crumble Overnight"

    The CCP Secretary continued, "These days we spend when we have to spend, we eat when we have to eat, and we drink when we have to drink. If there is wine today, then we drink until we are drunk. It is possible that the CCP will suddenly crumble overnight. Do you see what it has done to Falun Gong, and has therefore caused trouble for itself? The whole world is condemning the CCP. This cannot be good. When I go abroad, maybe I shouldn't bother to return. Have you seen how capable Falun Gong is?..."
  • A Dancer Shares Her Experiences

    I enjoy dancing because I like to present its beauty and grace, and I find that it is a powerful way to give people a chance to learn more about Falun Gong, clearly highlighting the evilness of the persecution. Through almost one hundred performances that I have been involved in, we have reached thousands of people in many communities.
  • Moved to the Core

    When I first took the flute from Teacher's hand, I felt very timid. Why? I had been in musical circles for decades, and I knew it was not a simple matter to master a musical instrument. You have to start training every day from childhood, year after year, with strict discipline, and even if you do that, you may not have much success, much less a 60-year-old person like me with crooked teeth and unable to hold in air. It was not an issue of whether I could play well or not. I was not sure if I could even make a sound.
  • My Cultivation Experiences with the Celestial Band

    During the past four months I learnt that the band was not for the entertainment of ordinary people or for entertaining ourselves. Instead, it is a serious part of cultivation. We need to keep cultivating ourselves and give up all of our attachments in this special environment. Meanwhile, I also encountered some conflicts that I had not encountered before. I gained a much deeper understanding from these conflicts of certain aspects of Master's Teachings that relate to "checking inside," "always thinking of others first" and "tolerating and forgiving."
  • Our Mornings and Evenings Are Extremely Precious

    We are cultivating amidst ordinary society, so mornings and evenings are extremely precious to us. They are chunks of time that we have full control over without affecting our daily work and life. Diligent practitioners normally can utilise this time to study the Falun Gong teachings, practise the exercises, and send forth righteous thoughts.
