Experiencing the Test of Life and Death

2009-09-27

When I was still bedridden, she came to visit me every day, sent righteous thoughts and practiced the fifth exercise. She played Master's lectures to me with a cassette recorder. When I felt a little bit better, she took me to group Fa-study. She also helped me a lot in my ordinary life. I am really touched by all the unselfish and sincere help from fellow practitioners. I could feel the strength and warmth of everybody as a whole.

2009-09-26

Studying the Fa isn't only reading and reciting the Fa; the main point is to do things based on the Fa, eliminate bad habits, eliminate selfishness, and cultivate away all attachments--this is real cultivation.

Seize the Time to Save Sentient Beings; Harmonize with Master's Wishes

2009-09-26

Through studying Master's recent articles, I came to understand that, at present, Dafa disciples have two main priorities: one is to cultivate ourselves well and the other is to save sentient beings. These two things are closely related to each other and are also one body.

Since mother obtained Dafa, she carries very few notions, and has become even more pure. Master encourages her when she is diligent, and she can see the flowers and trees in other dimensions. When she reads the Fa, she can see that the characters are moving and changing colours.

Falun Gong Made Me a Better Person

2009-09-25

Little by little, I started to follow what Teacher says in Zhuan Falun. I learned that cultivation practice is about returning to one's true self and eliminating selfishness. I gradually let go of my attachment to fame, self-interest and sentimentality and am no longer fighting over fame or self-interest.

In Desperation, I Saw the Light

2009-09-24

During this time of grief, an old classmate visited me. He told me that his sister practiced Falun Gong. Before, she had all sorts of illnesses, which disappeared after she began practicing Falun Gong. When I heard that, I saw the light.

Believing Teacher and Trusting the Fa in the Process of My Cultivation

2009-09-24

With tears in his eyes, he said, "How can I thank you guys? You don't want a penny for doing such a big thing." I said, "Your best thanks will be that you do well in your job and remember to listen to your conscience." He promised he would. When I walked him downstairs to the front door, I told him to remember, "Falun Dafa is good, Falun Gong is being persecuted."

Let's Not Slack Off in Our Requirements for Ourselves

2009-09-24

I have understood from the Fa that being Fa-rectification Dafa disciples, our acknowledging everyday people's thoughts, notions, and attachments is like a cultivator's reading crooked qigong books and then incurring animal or spirit possessions, after which demons would come to interfere with our doing the three things.

Being a Worthy Young Falun Dafa Practitioner

2009-09-23

Later I looked inward and found that I had very strong fear, so I decided to put the informational brochures in the offices of my teachers. The next day when I came to school, I saw the teachers in the office all reading the letter together. I felt happy for those teachers who have understood the truth of Falun Gong.

Let's Not Disappoint Master Who Has Mercifully Labored to Save Us

2009-09-23

My family environment was also my cultivation environment, and I required myself to meet the standard of a practitioner in my every word and action. Sometimes it was not easy to pass the test when there was a conflict. However, I looked inside myself afterwards, and rectified myself according to the Fa.

Pointing out Others' Shortcomings with Compassion and Looking Within

2009-09-22

Fearing to offend others, in my understanding, is a fear of not being loved or accepted if I hurt the other person. But what is truly hurt is not the being itself, but the post-natally acquired notions. What helps is the understanding that what I really want is found within myself, thus I am detached from "the other" in seeking validation, approval, love.

Sentimentality Is the Worst Attachment

2009-09-22

Everything in the human world is illusions. And yet, human beings are lost in it and are enjoying themselves. We practitioners tend to pay attention to getting rid of attachments to fame and self-interest, but neglect to get rid of our sentimentality. I believe that it is important to not let our sentimentality invade our thoughts.

Controlling My Temper

2009-09-21

The root cause is that I wanted to be superior to others and receive praise. However, if everyone praised me, how could I improve myself without any troubles? Why did I receive so many complaints and irritations? Isn't it because I felt ignored and I tended to complain about others?

My Understanding of the Fa After a Three-Day Conference in Central Taiwan

2009-09-21

My understanding is that the purpose of looking inward is to apply the Fa to find out our own attachments and anything that is in conflict with the Fa. Generally, when we look at others we should focus on their strengths and not their weaknesses, because the Fa requires us to create harmony and not conflict.
