  • Becoming a "real" Practitioner (Shared at the 2003 Benelux Fa conference)

    Certain matters sounded so inconceivable to me that I just couldn’t accept them. After a lot of discussions with my husband and after reading certain paragraphs dozens of times again, I finally succeeded in finishing the book completely and suddenly everything became clearer to me! I immediately started reading for a second time and this time it went more smoothly and the incredible understanding started to grow that everything I had learned before was after all not the absolute truth!
  • Hoisting Sails in the Ocean of the Fa to Head Home

    In the long river of history, human life is as short-lived as a jet of spray. In the vastness of the universe, human capability is as negligible as a speck of dust. So many wise men have been searching for the true meaning of life and the genuine origin of the universe in order to obtain eternal happiness. However, after ages of reincarnation, after all the hardships in seeking, they still cannot find the answers. They are still wondering when the genuine Teacher will come into being...
  • Co-cultivators (Shared at the 2003 Benelux Fa Conference)

    Because of human selfishness, when disputes and conflicts arose, the relationship among practitioners, which should be solemn, became worse than that of ordinary good people. For some time, this puzzled me. After calming down, using the Fa to judge the situation and looking inside, I found that the problems were due to my attachments. During communications with practitioners, I always get confused by what is on the surface, and get attached to one’s external behaviour, I do not see the true nature of that person — the great cultivator.
  • Learn Responsibility for Yourself – Be Strict With Yourself Before Demanding it From Others

    An everyday person more readily accepts opinions and viewpoints from outside himself. That person’s mind is not yet ready to examine his conscience, because he or she does not want to assume responsibility for his or her words and actions. Also, when things don’t go well, then that person can put the blame on others, saying, “it is not my fault, it is the other person’s fault.” Is this bad? It is really quite bad to act like that!
  • The Great Law can Harmonise Everything (Shared at the 2003 Benelux Fa-conference)

    I mostly feared that I would lose the comfortable life I had, however, all the mostly feared things were pushed on me one by one. Even so, I never gave up the belief in ‘truth, compassion and tolerance’. I am even more diligent in cultivation because Master teaches us in the article A Brief Statement of Mine "Other people may treat us badly, but we do not treat others badly, nor do we treat people as enemies." According to the teachings of Master, no matter who we are faced with, we have to consider them before we think of ourselves. We have to do more good things.
  • Sharing Article: Path (Shared at the 2003 Benelux Fa-conference)

    This life without any moral values led me to act in an irrational way and my only solution was to get away from my family and my country, and as a matter of fact my life became meaningless. And in the darkness a light appeared to me the day I read the book of Falun Dafa. I said the day but actually I should say at night because I read the book in one night and my state of mind changed radically, I had found a sense to my life again.
  • With Righteous Thoughts, a Terminally Ill Woman Receives a New Life Through Practising Falun Dafa

    The older woman's family was full of joy, as if they were celebrating Chinese New Year. Many relatives called and asked about her condition. Her family told them, "She was cured, and she was cured by practising Falun Gong!" Some relatives didn't believe what they heard and so they travelled several hundred miles to see for themselves. Once they witnessed the older woman walking around the house and even performing some household chores, many of them said they would go home and read the book themselves-- because it was indeed miraculous.
  • Short Stories From Falun Gong Practitioners in China

    Whenever the province superior issued an order to persecute Falun Gong, he would reply that there were no practitioners under his jurisdiction. Then he would inform practitioners in the village to be on the alert for inspection. After the event, he would say, "How long will I be in this office? The people at the top issue some unjustifiable policy and we at the bottom have a strategy for dealing with them. I know Falun Gong is good, so I'll help practitioners. I will not commit the wicked deed of naming names to hurt others!"
  • Falun Dafa Has Spread More Deeply and Widely Across Europe

    It is clear that the virtues of Falun Dafa, which have attracted millions of people around the world, are still attracting the attention of more and more people across Europe and enabling Falun Dafa to establish its roots more and more deeply throughout society.
  • Righteous Thoughts and Actions Eradicate Persecutors' Efforts

    Some people left, one after another, after they had learnt the true facts about Falun Gong. The police then tried another method and asked the Falun Dafa practitioners to sign a piece of blank paper. The practitioners firmly refused. The police - almost 30 strong - came forward menacingly; however, they couldn't intimidate the practitioners at all. They couldn't accomplish their evil goals.
  • A Righteous Statement in Court by Falun Dafa Practitioner Ms. Shan Yuhuan

    Numerous Dafa practitioners, from teenage girls to elderly people of over seventy years of age, have been tortured to death. Many families have been broken up or forced to disperse and many people dare not return home so as to avoid arrest. Under such circumstances Falun Dafa practitioners are revealing the facts of the persecution to the people who have been fooled by the evil lies with their immeasurable mercy as well as great compassion and forbearance.
  • True Cultivation During Fa Rectification (Benelux Fa Conference 2003)

    When I started my job more than two years ago, I almost couldn’t stand it. Receiving calls from people was not my favourite occupation in the first place, and I also knew nothing of computers. By improving Xinxing through studying Fa and looking inside on one hand, and building up my worldly skills on the other, I gradually overcame my tribulations. Through trial and error, I learned to reach beyond the realm of human disputes, and to serve people unconditionally with compassion.
  • Experience Sharing Article (Benelux Fa Conference 2003)

    I saw clearly that my competitive mentality, my attachment of jealousy and also my attachment to what other people think of me were all being exposed. This put the whole situation into perspective and suddenly I didn’t feel so upset anymore, I was thankful to Master for having pointed these attachments out to me. Once I got to my class, I realised that it had been arranged for me to be in that class from the beginning, as there was a Chinese woman in my class.
  • Ancient Story: A Good Deed Leads To A Good Result

    After finishing his business, Wang walked home and worried about his life. He saw Zou, a woman who made Tofu in the next village, crying by a pond. Zou told him that her husband was very sick and that they didn't have enough money to pay the medical bills. Wang, a kind person, figuring that he wouldn't live very long anyway, gave his money, more than a thousand Yuan, to Zou to save her husband. Zou thanked him and took the money. Her husband was saved from death.
  • Phone Calls from Overseas Dafa Practitioners Shock the Police and Prompt a Fellow Practitioner's Release from Detention

    From this, we can see the great impact that truth clarification from overseas practitioners has on rescuing practitioners in China, as well as the significant shock it brings to those evil police officers who persecute Falun Dafa practitioners. The prison guards told Li Mei's mother when Li Mei was being released: "Some phone calls were from the U.S. and some were from Canada." They felt frightened because they knew the world could see them committing their evil acts.
