Reflecting on My Cultivation Path

2010-05-28

I knew that I'd found the path of cultivation to return to one's original, true self. Since then, I used every possible opportunity to study the teachings. Sometimes, I got up in the middle of the night to study. When my child played in the yard, I just sat on the side and read the Dafa books. I felt my steady heart and really experienced the true meaning of happiness.

2010-05-27

Thus, in cultivation practice, there is really no standing still: if we are not advancing, we are in retreat. When I thought I was just huddling in my shell, I was in fact going backwards into humanness, retreating from my goal of returning to my true home.

Improving Oneself While Reciting the Fa

2010-05-27

Because my level is limited, I could not fully understand the Fa principles of Fa-rectification while reading Zhuan Falun. So I started to recite Teacher's articles, and I right away understood many things that I did not understand before. Actually we should not worry about how slow or fast we recite the Fa. As long as we keep on reciting the Fa, we will benefit.

2010-05-26

I thought: Since a practitioner's body is purified by Master, how can I still consider myself disabled? Plus, we are cultivating Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. How truthfully am I behaving by doing this?

Three Practitioners Bear Witness to the Greatness of Dafa

2010-05-24

My view of life changed. I understood that one must follow the universal principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, and the only way to avoid illnesses, aging, and to reach salvation is to upgrade one's character, let go of worldly fame and self-interests, not fight for things, study the Fa, and do the Falun Gong exercises.

Some Thoughts on Searching Inwards

2010-05-24

I saw my shortcomings. I had gotten into a bad habit of enjoying stretching my back and my legs and continuing to sleep. I saw it was a desire and a reflection of selfishness. I was afraid of hardship. I did not jump out of the old cosmos. It seemed to be trivial, but such slacking off was being irresponsible to myself, showing that I did not treasure this cultivation opportunity.

When a Dafa disciple cultivates himself or herself well and acts righteously, those in the vicinity also behave themselves well, and thus the practitioner's cultivation environment also improves.

When he was rebuilding his home, the neighbour behind his house created all kinds of difficulties for him. They didn't let him put the materials there or allow his vehicle to pass by. They cursed him day and night, but the practitioner kept his temper without retaliating and just went around his neighbour. Even the builder admired him, saying, "Falun Gong is good. If they weren't practitioners, they would have already fought over it."

The Dangers of Lust

2010-05-21

For everyday people, when you get to a certain age, you die. That’s absolute. People don’t live forever and it’s as absolute as that; that if you’re young, you have lust and sentimentality. Unless you can truly, completely break away from humanness, a young person will be just as likely to fall into lust and sentimentality, as the old will surely die.

Only When We Conform to the Fa Can Its Power Manifest Through Us

2010-05-19

When I shared my experience with practitioners later, we all felt the power of cooperating as one body. Most practitioners were calm when sending righteous thoughts. They felt a strong energy field strengthening my righteous elements. It wasn't like before, when we looked for a practitioner's shortcomings first when they were being persecuted.
