Understanding the Concept of "One Body" after Studying Master's Recent Teachings
2003-04-07
Whenever I hear or see such news [of Dafa practitioners being persecuted or interfered with] my first thought is to eliminate the persecution by the evil, because such persecution of Dafa practitioners should not be allowed. We should regard whatever happens to fellow practitioners (no matter where they come from) as happening to ourselves, and this is the righteous thought that a Dafa practitioner, as part of one body, should have. -
An Ex-Serviceman in China Comes to Know the Truth
2003-04-06I don't quite understand why Jiang forbade people to practise Falun Dafa. Why should he use the military and the police to suppress them? Practitioners respect the elderly and young, help others and will pick up lost money and return it to the rightful owner. When faced with Jiang's brutal persecution, they have adopted the most peaceful ways to appeal and ask for nothing but the freedom to practise. -
Calling People in China: Helping People to Choose Their Own Futures
2003-04-06On weekends several of us young practitioners usually gather together to call college students in China. During casual phone conversations, we make use of the wisdom we have gained through our Falun Dafa cultivation. We clarify the truth, letting these students know the true nature of the persecution against Falun Dafa. Some practitioners express their feelings from their hearts: "Falun Dafa is good!" -
If You Promote the Fa with a Calm Heart, You Can Change your Environment
2003-04-06As a Falun Dafa practitioner, I can feel that the environment of my work unit changed when I did things based on Dafa, when I continuously clarified the facts about Falun Dafa, when I completed my work calmly and tolerantly despite the unfair assignment with such a deadline, and when I did it without thinking of personal gains and losses. -
Summary of Results from the 1999 Health Survey of Falun Gong Practitioners in North America
2003-04-05The demographic data reflected that many practitioners in North America are relatively young and well educated. The health improvement based on self-evaluated health status before and after beginning the practice was very strong. Based on the positive survey results, around February of 2001 we wrote a paper and submitted it to an academic public health journal. -
The Man in front of the German Federal Parliament
2003-04-05From Monday to Friday, we appealed outside the German Federal Parliament. One day something unexpected happened; a man would not allow us to hang the banners in the area where he wanted carry out another appeal. He has been carrying out an appeal during the whole winter for those victims persecuted to death in the time of the dictatorship in East Germany. -
In a Few Words: My Understanding of Shan
2003-04-05If we are attached to the superficial kindness of everyday people and do not comply with providence to protect the truth of the universe with various kinds of means, doesn’t it deviate from “Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance”?! It is genuine Shan only to firmly stand up for the truth of the universe, expose Jiang Zemin’s sins and let people know the facts. -
The Righteous Behaviour of a Head Prisoner
2003-04-04The room head said, "At the beginning, I didn't know what Falun Gong was. All the prisoners and Falun Dafa practitioners here were beaten alike. But as I came into contact with more Falun Dafa practitioners, I saw that they never complained and they held no hatred. I saw them always giving the best things to others. We have seen these things, and we have admired you truly in our hearts. -
The Pure Heart of a Butcher
2003-04-04He said, “Then we should put it up. Because Falun Dafa is good, there is no reason the banner should be on the ground.” He then tacked it up onto a telegraph pole. He picked up the other banner and asked people to read it. Everybody replied, “Falun Dafa is righteous!” He would then exclaim, “Since Falun Dafa is righteous, we should put it up as well.” The butcher proceeded to put up the banner for everyone to see. -
My True Self
2003-04-04I realise that if I were to lose my rationality under the relentless torture of the evil, and to write any document of guarantee, strictly speaking, the self that writes the document is not my true self! Just like when we sit in meditation, we want to achieve the state of tranquility, but notions keep popping up in the mind. These notions are not my true self. I should treat them as something separate from myself. -
Always Focus on Doing "What Dafa Disciples Should Do"
2003-04-04Whenever a problem like this arises, we need to realise that we haven't clarified the truth enough, then we need to adjust our plans to carefully deal with the problem. We should explain the related facts to the people and the governmental departments that are directly or indirectly involved. In this way, we will not only solve the problem itself, but also not restrain ourselves by focusing too narrowly on the details of a specific problem. -
The Righteous Thoughts and Actions of a College Professor
2003-04-03Because of his actions and effort, the cell head decided to dedicate the daily "sitting period" of several hours as truth-telling time, asking Falun Dafa practitioners to talk about Falun Dafa. People's minds that were lost in the maze started to become sober. As a result, whenever the TV broadcasted any news slandering Falun Dafa, the whole cell would complain, "No, no, we don't want to watch this!" -
Some Understandings About Charles Li's Case after Speaking with Journalists and Government VIPs
2003-04-03Charles Li's case is only one part of the persecution of Falun Gong by Jiang's regime. This time, it has extended to an American citizen. Therefore, I think we need to expose the nature of the persecution. Our basic purpose is for Charles Li's release, but it is not our only purpose. We need to take this opportunity to clarify the truth to people more thoroughly and extensively. -
In a Few Words: Practitioners' Statements Affect Everyday People’s Statements
2003-04-03Looking at my surroundings, I see many Dafa disciples quietly doing a lot of good deeds; their understandings of the Fa usually enlighten me as well. Nevertheless, when I suggest they write down their understandings, many people say that they don’t have time, or they can’t write. Some even say they don’t want to develop attachments such as showing off and zealotry, or they fear other people may think their understandings are at a low level. -
Experiences Clarifying the Truth With Small-Town Media
2003-04-03Each local newspaper may have only a circulation of a few thousand, or tens of thousands, but local residents trust these news sources because they relate directly to their own local situations. These people may ignore international news in big newspapers, but they read local news carefully, because it's close to them. Once, after a report about our workshop was published together with the next class schedule, about 50 people came to the second workshop.
