Suggestions for How to Write Experience Sharing Articles
2004-10-14
As many practitioners have felt, writing experience-sharing articles is a process of rational thinking, cultivation, and self-improvement. Even if initially our thoughts were wrong, not very rational, or not pure enough, this is an opportunity for us to reflect, to see how much improvement we have made in our thinking and actions after a period of studying the teachings of Falun Gong and showing people the true facts about Falun Gong, and to learn from our shortcomings and failures. -
Letting Go of My Fundamental Attachments Amidst Long-term Tribulations
2004-10-14I was continuously tortured both physically and mentally whilst I was being detained at the Xindian Female Forced Labour Camp in Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province of China. Such long-term suffering, however, could not change my determined heart. When I looked within throughout that experience, I also found many of my own attachments. -
Former Chinese Dictator Jiang Zemin and his Faction Forces Government Agencies to Persecute Falun Gong
2004-10-13Jiang manipulated the nation's propaganda to defame and spread hatred towards Falun Gong to achieve the vicious goal of deceiving all Chinese people into being against Falun Gong. At the same time, Jiang issued orders secretly at every level to force each governmental department to persecute Falun Gong. Furthermore, he issued the order to the police that "[practitioners] beaten to death will be counted as suicides." -
State Terrorism Distorts Human Nature
2004-10-13Living under the crush of spiritual and psychological terror for so long, people's minds have been seriously distorted. The negative psychological factors like fear, distrust, suspicion, and hatred have caused people to lose their ability to think rationally and have exhausted their courage to protect their basic human rights and dignity. Furthermore, the dark side of human nature expands rapidly, resulting in violence. The huge psychological pressure created by the state terrorism is what led Yang Lirong's husband to lose his mind and murder his wife. -
My Experiences and Understandings about Appealing at the Chinese Consulate in Edinburgh, Scotland
2004-10-13One day when I was practising the Falun Gong exercises, an old Scottish man came over and said to me, "Young man, I have observed you for a few days, and I am really touched. Nowadays, there are very few young men like you. You are really brave. Carry on. What you are doing is great." When I heard this, tears streamed down my cheeks. -
A New Falun Gong Practitioner in China Establishes Her Own Material Production Site
2004-10-13I did not understand why I started to practise so late. I know now that everything happens for a reason. First, as a new practitioner, no one has been watching me; secondly, with a stable job and income, I am in good financial shape; thirdly, I have basic computer skills; and fourthly, I have a good family environment, so I have ample time and energy. Everything comes or forms for Falun Dafa. If we have the means but do not do what we should do, that will be our biggest regret. Haven't we been waiting for this day for thousands of years? -
Falun Dafa Made Me a Better Teacher
2004-10-12Our supervisor said, "You completely understand the new concepts in education reform and carry them through your teaching practice. You are an excellent teacher." As a matter of fact, this change has come about solely through my practice of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." In the process of my practising Falun Dafa, I have become more and more reasonable and clear-minded and I am able to see the essential parts of the problems with greater clarity. Therefore my class teaching keeps improving, which looked and sounded "new" to others. -
After Studying the Teachings of Falun Gong and Cultivating the Heart My Breast Cancer Disappears
2004-10-12Before I started practising, I had breast cancer. I underwent an extensive operation for six hours at the Changgen Hospital. Like other cancer patients, I was treated with chemotherapy. I had a schedule of nine treatments. After each treatment, when I washed my hair, it would come out in handfuls. I felt sick and I was afraid. Before the operation, I bravely told my children not to worry, and that Bodhisattva would protect me and ensure my safety. However, I cried for days after I became bald. -
Interviewing Dai Zhizhen in Front of the Liberty Bell (Part 2)
2004-10-12I couldn’t get a visa to China to say goodbye to her, and I was heartbroken. They used this method to punish me for speaking up. My daughter asked me, “Why can’t we go back to China to see Grandma?” I replied, “Because we cannot get a visa.” She asked, “Why can’t we get a visa?” I said, “Because we practise Falun Gong.” She said, “Why is that we can’t get a visa because we practise Falun Gong?” I wept. I didn’t know how to explain it to her. This was the most painful thing for me. -

A Senior Citizen: It's Wonderful to be Free of Pain
2004-10-11One day, I found a pamphlet in my mailbox about Falun Gong. After reading it carefully, I was so glad to have come across this wonderful practice. I immediately contacted a local assistant, and began doing the exercises and studying the teachings on November 15, 2000. After participating in the nine-day seminar, my body went through an obvious transformation. Right now, I am able to walk confidently, and get up and down stairs with ease. After practising for half a year, the gout, which had bothered me for years, vanished without a trace. I was on a strict diet in the past, but I am now able to eat anything I wish. -
How Hatred Has Entered One Home
2004-10-10But before I could even finish my sentence, his countenance suddenly changed and his enmity instantly appeared. I asked in despair, "Why would you rather believe in the Communists, who murdered your father, than in your own daughter?" He made a rather outrageous statement, “I have never believed in the Communists, but this is a different matter!" Why is it not the same? Can a wolf that feeds on sheep change to feed on grass? -
Interview with Falun Gong Practitioner Dai Zhizhen in Front of the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia (Part 1)
2004-10-10All my family members practise Falun Gong, and we believe in the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance. Because of that belief, my husband was persecuted to death. Nowadays, thousands of Falun Gong practitioners in China are suffering from the same persecution and hardship that my family has experienced. The reason why my daughter and I are able to survive is because we hold Australian passports. -
Using the Phone to Tell the People of China that "Falun Dafa is Good"
2004-10-10
This desire changed a simple book-reading meeting to a time where Falun Gong practitioners would gather together to phone people in China to explain to them about Falun Gong and the persecution. Everyone agreed that it was a good idea to use the phone to call the Chinese people, police stations, forced labour camps and related authorities. -
Understanding the Persecution from the Angle of the Law to Bring the Persecutors to Justice
2004-10-10For these reasons, talking about the persecution against Falun Gong from the legal perspective becomes especially important. We should help people understand that persecuting Falun Gong violates our nation's Constitution and the law. Jiang Zemin and his followers, who controlled all of the state's resources to persecute Falun Gong, are the ones breaking the law, and the line of attack during the persecution is illegal and criminal.
