Police Officers That Know the Truth about Falun Dafa Pray for a Practitioner
2004-06-04The police asked Hanmei: "Did you know that man?" Hanmei said that she did not know him. The police asked again: "If you did not know him, why did you give him money?" She said: "As a practitioner, if someone has difficulty, we will help him out." Hanmei continued to say to the police: "Whatever we do, it is for people to know the truth of Dafa. We gave up a lot of things, but it is for more people not to be cheated by the lies." After listening to her, some of the policemen's hearts were touched. Two of the police said: "We do not understand why we are sending such a good person like you to jail." -
Some Thoughts about the Importance of Group Fa-Study and Practice
2004-06-03Group practice and group Fa-study are the forms of Falun Dafa cultivation that Teacher has left for us from the very beginning, and are things that cannot be changed. Every Falun Dafa practitioner has followed Teacher's requirements at the beginning and has made constant progress this way. It is because my thoughts were not righteous that I had not met Teacher's requirements and my cultivation went off course. -
Continuously Fill Every Space within Our Being with Righteous Thoughts
2004-06-03The persecution of Falun Dafa in our area is very severe. In order to ensure that fellow practitioners get to read Master's new lectures in time, so that we are able to understand the Fa from the Fa, and do well in validating the Fa, my wife and I managed to overcome many difficulties and purchased a computer, a second-hand printer, and some supplies. -
Looking Back: Attending Teacher's Lectures in Zhengzhou City, Henan Province
2004-06-01I felt that what Teacher talked about was something I had never heard before, such as we must strive to be a good person, to be better than a good person, never hit back when being cursed or hit by others, be considerate of others, put others' interests ahead of orselves, seek from within whenever conflicts arise with others, etc. I found that very refreshing. -
Precious Moment, Eternal Memory
2004-06-01In 1988, a qigong association was set up in my college. The association invited some local qigong masters to give qigong performances. Those people always rode a car to and from the college, and ordinary students could not even get close to them. The time when I met Master, he was already a renowned qigong master nationally; however, he did not ride in a car, nor did he have any escorts. Master just walked steadily into the auditorium to give his lectures, naturally and amiably, his extraordinary bearing manifested in his gentleness. -
Where Does the Money Come From?
2004-05-31Some people wonder about where the money comes from for Falun Gong activities. They often ask us how we are able to print materials to clarify the truth, hold activities, and host big events. They wonder, "Where does the money come from to cover your expenses?" Then, not knowing the facts, they wrongly speculate that Falun Gong must have political supporters or donors. In fact, nobody has been able to provide evidence to support this conclusion because it doesn't exist. -
Remembering When Teacher Taught the Fa in Changchun
2004-05-30I felt I was going too slow and started to feel anxious. At the same time an attachment of fear emerged. I feared that I was falling behind, and I feared how other practitioners would look at me if I could not finish the work on time. Then, the tape player stopped working and I had to get a new one. In the end, I was far behind and needed help from other practitioners. I was the last one to finish the work. At that time we knew Teacher was going to turn the lectures into a book we would use to study the Fa. We did not know this precious book would be named Zhuan Falun. -
A Family in China Experiences the Wonders of Dafa
2004-05-30Unfortunately, the VCD player was broken. They had a couple of repairmen come and it was still not fixed. The parents said: "Let's forget it. It is not that important." She said, "No, you have to see the truth. Once you know the facts, you will go and tell others. The fact that my health has recovered is the best evidence." As she spoke she plugged the VCD player cord into an outlet. To their surprise, the machine started to work again. They played the disk for a whole hour, with very clear pictures and sound. When they later tried to play a movie, the machine failed again. -
Recalling the Grand Experience Sharing Conferences and Group Activities in Shuangyashan City, Heilongjiang Province
2004-05-29When practitioners were talking about their remarkable physical and mental changes and their moral elevation after they took up the cultivation of Dafa, their talks were frequently interrupted by sobs or applause. The hearts of all practitioners combined into one whether they were speaking on the stage or sitting around listening. That was the best time in my life and I felt really fortunate to have obtained such a good thing as Falun Dafa. -
Stories From Mainland China: People of China Come to Know the Truth
2004-05-29After listening to Master Li's lectures, she excitedly said: "It's great what Master Li talks about! Falun Dafa teaches people to be good, to be compassionate, and helps people heal illnesses and keep fit. But the government's crackdown on Falun Gong is incomprehensible." She then began the cultivation of Falun Dafa. When she meets acquaintances, she tells them the truth about Falun Dafa. She always talks very reasonably, so after many people understand the truth, they say: "We know that the people who practice Falun Dafa are good people. The self-immolation incident and other propaganda broadcast on TV are all fabrications." -
Recalling Happier Times
2004-05-28After checking out several places that we considered suitable, we found that there were already people practicing some other morning exercises there. While we were a little worried about finding a place, our most respected Teacher selected a different practice site for us. The practice site was smooth and flat, the environment was nice, and it could hold more people. After it was set up, the number of people coming to our practice site increased day by day. Within one year, the number of people practicing there increased from a few dozen to a few hundred. -
Some Thoughts on the Long Term Tribulations and Deadly Torture Practitioners Encounter
2004-05-28I read a story about a practitioner who managed to leave a detention center after going on a hunger strike. She had barely recovered when several policemen came to arrest her again from her home. She didn't open the door, so they tried to forcefully break in by ramming her window and door. She sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the persecution against her, but they kept on fiercely hitting her window. Suddenly a righteous thought came to her mind, "The evil is not allowed to persecute Dafa." In a split second they had gone. -
My Sister-in-Law Clarifies the Truth About Falun Dafa With Her Honest Behaviour
2004-05-27My sister-in-law is over 30 years old. Since she started practising Falun Gong, her diseases disappeared, she is more forgiving, and more even-tempered. She used to argue with my parents over trivial matters. After practising Dafa, she apologised to my parents about her behaviour and past wrongdoings. My brother noticed the positive changes and is supportive of her practising Dafa. -
Remembering the Days When Teacher Expounded the Teachings of Falun Gong in Chongqing
2004-05-26Teacher's meals were very simple and he was never into big meals. Sometimes he had a small bowl of noodles. Chongqing people like to eat hot peppers. Whether it is noodles or soup, they put hot peppers in it. Once Teacher had noodles for lunch and the restaurant owner did not know that Teacher was a Northerner and therefore did not eat hot peppers. He put a lot of hot peppers in the noodles. Teacher's face was sweating all over from the spicy food. Nevertheless, Teacher didn't say anything. He just quietly finished eating the small bowl of noodles. -
Falun Gong Gave My Sister a Second Life
2004-05-26My sister heard that Falun Gong had amazing healing abilities, and she wanted to give it a try since there was nothing to loose, given the fact that it was free to learn. In this way she followed one class after another of watching video recordings of Master's lectures till she finished watching the nine lectures. At the end of it, she said, "I am really dumbfounded. I now know the meaning of life, which I had always wanted to understand but failed to. I also know why a person comes to this world, what a person is living for and why there are illnesses."
