Thirteen Years Ago, I Found Falun Gong While In Detention
2012-06-16
One day in the Spring of 1996, an elderly lady came to see me. She noticed that I did not look well and told me she was practising Falun Gong. She extolled the benefits of the practice, including improving health and fitness. She showed me the five sets of exercises, but I told her I had no time to learn them now, although they seemed good to me. I said I would learn the exercises from her when I had the time. Thus I lost the opportunity to learn Dafa. -
Why My Supervisor Supports Me to Practise Falun Gong
2012-06-16I started practising Falun Gong in 1998. Prior to this, I had been a very serious, stubborn and unforgiving person. If I was wrongly accused of something, I would turn the work unit upside down. I always felt that people living in this world were fighting among each other for personal gain, and that it was meaningless to live like that. My health condition was also poor. -
The Chinese Government Never Officially "Banned" Falun Gong, Part 1
2012-06-16After July 20, 1999, media and even scholarly works outside of China have often used the words, "The Chinese government has banned Falun Gong since July of 1999." It is my belief that the Chinese Communist Party has never had a legal basis for its eleven-year persecution of Falun Gong, because the Chinese government never officially banned Falun Gong. -
The Best Choice That I Have Made in My Life
2012-06-13Falun Gong has been spread around the world and it is only banned in China by the communist regime due to the jealousy of Jiang Zemin. In July 1999, he started the persecution, arresting, torturing and jailing practitioners. To address this situation and raise awareness, overseas practitioners have held Information Days, candlelight vigils, distributed leaflets and used other methods to encourage people to help stop the persecution. -
Destined Return to Dafa: One Year of Cultivation Experience
2012-06-13I had read some Dafa books with my mum, and I practised the exercises for several days with her. However, I never studied the Fa seriously. I then fell back into ordinary society. Thinking back about the dozen years that I was away from Dafa, I became a slave to fame, money, and emotion. Hatred grew in my heart during the intrigue and conflict in the career arena. I became exhausted physically and mentally. My health had been deteriorating, and I had to take medicine daily. -
Learning Falun Dafa Is the Best Thing that Happened to Me
2012-06-13I learned that Falun Dafa does wonders for one's health, and also improves one's character. After this I became determined to be a better person. I wanted to practice Falun Gong and adhere to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. Falun Dafa has become an essential part of my life. I have been practising Dafa for eleven years and I take Fa study and doing the exercises seriously. -
The Historic Change in People's Hearts
2012-06-13This recent event of an entire village of 300 families choosing to support a Falun Gong practitioner who is being persecuted is a profound act of Chinese people choosing justice in the face of ongoing tyranny. Mengzi (Mencius) stated: “Not corrupted by wealth, not shaken by poverty, not giving in to power. This is a real man.” The history of good defeating evil was written by those real men who do not give in to power. -
Falun Dafa is the Buddha Fa
2012-06-10When I first read the book Zhuan Falun, the things that puzzled me for more than a decade were suddenly cleared up. I realized that I was so busy with being a vegetarian, or in chanting incantations, which all ended in vain. Falun Dafa is the real Buddha's Fa. The way Dafa disciples are walking on is the real path of cultivation to Buddhahood. How lucky we are that we can genuinely cultivate in the dharma-ending period with the guidance of Master, with the Fa to study, with fellow practitioners to share our experiences with. I will definitely cultivate until I succeed! -
Farewell Cardiovascular Disease!
2012-06-10Cultivation of Falun Gong brought me many surprising changes. For instance, I used to sleep for eight hours and after I got up I still would not feel comfortable. Since beginning cultivation I only sleep for 4 to 5 hours but I am full of energy. I can teach four classes back-to-back and my brain is still alert and relaxed. Before, I never used to go home until early morning, but now that I have quit drinking alcohol, I have become much healthier. All of these changes also surprised my wife. -
Practitioners Have A Field of Serenity and Peace
2012-06-05With human moral values and standards deteriorating daily, people deceive and harm each other and conflicts take place between many people. Falun Dafa practitioners, who follow the characteristics of the universe, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, are role models among people. Whether in my workplace or with my family, my situation is relatively complicated. Since I began cultivating in the Fa, I have become more selfless and tolerant, and I am able to handle things well. -
New Practitioner Who Started Only Two Months Ago: “I Am So Lucky”
2012-06-05I am a new practitioner who started practising only two months ago. I am 63 years old. Before practising, I suffered from lumbar herniation and diabetes. Looking back on my two months of practising Dafa, I see that Master was looking after me every step of the way. I encountered some very serious tribulations, and if I had not treated myself as a practitioner, the results might have been disastrous. -
A New Practitioner Quickly Improves after Learning Falun Dafa
2012-06-05I am a new practitioner in my twenties and I fortunately obtained Dafa at the beginning of 2011. At this historic time of Dafa spreading throughout the world for twenty years and with the May 13th experience sharing articles online, I took this opportunity to share how I was introduced to Dafa and the changes I experienced both physically and mentally after learning the Fa. I am deeply grateful to Master Li and want to help Master rectify the Fa. -
Lessons from History: What Happens When Nations “Curry Favour with the Wicked Regime”
2012-06-05The founder of Falun Gong, Mr. Li Hongzhi published a new article on May 3, 2012, “To Choose.” It has profound meaning. My understanding of one sentence in the article, “Curry favour with the wicked regime, and you’ll be duped by demons” is that this is advising people to not curry favour with the wicked regime for short-term gain thus condoning the evil, eventually harming all mankind, including your own country's people. -
Chinese Communist Party's Scandalous Law Enforcement: The Good Are Attacked While the Bad Run Riot
2012-06-05Falun Gong teaches its practitioners to conduct themselves according to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance in their work and everyday life. To eradicate Falun Gong, the CCP releases the criminals who undermine social stability and focuses on arresting Falun Gong practitioners who merely want to be good people. In the history of mankind, has anyone seen such a society, where the good and bad are so totally reversed? -
The Story of a New European Practitioner
2012-06-02
I am originally from Bulgaria, and currently reside in Germany. When I lived in Bulgaria in 2009, I heard about Falun Dafa for the first time. I had been very interested in Asian cultures and practised martial arts in high school. Regardless of whatever activities I engaged in or wherever I travelled, however, I had been searching for spiritual answers.
