Unrighteous Thoughts Cause Tribulations
2009-04-07I decided to do the same thing for our city. Immediately, the policemen's words kept popping up in my mind. I started to think, "When the truth-clarification flyers and pamphlets come out, will the National Security Team think that I did it? If they ask me, how should I respond?" I knew that these were unrighteous thoughts. They were not from my own nature -
Our Righteous Thoughts Should Be Powerful
2009-04-07I have sent forth righteous thoughts together with a fellow practitioner a few times, and I observed how she conducted herself. Every time we sent forth righteous thoughts, she spent almost fifteen minutes on the verge of falling asleep! After less than two months, this practitioner was arrested while she was out distributing fliers, and sentenced to two years of forced labour. -
Not Be Misled by Worldly Pursuits and Miss the Precious Chance to Reach Divinity
2009-04-06It is a rare opportunity to have access to the truth. We have gone through many re-incarnations to have this opportunity. However, the human world tends to generate illusions that mislead us and cause us to forget that we are practitioners. Can we imagine what will happen to us if we miss this opportunity? -
Delivering Truth-Clarification Materials
2009-04-06I felt I was being pushed when going uphill. It didn't take long at all to ride five miles. I didn't feel hot in the summer or cold in the winter. But if I didn't have righteous thoughts, for example, if I didn't want to go or thought it was too far or I'd be too lonely, my bicycle would not move no matter how hard I peddled it. When I got off the bike to push it, I felt my legs weighed a thousand pounds. -
Let Go of Ego and Treat Fellow Practitioners with Compassion
2009-04-05During another meeting with several practitioners, three of them got into an argument. At this time I noticed that one practitioner next to me was sitting calmly, unmoved by what was happening. A saying by ordinary people came to mind, "A person with great wisdom appears innocent to others." -
Is Impossible When We Are Based on the Fa
2009-04-05When I coordinate with other practitioners in projects, I also realize that every practitioner's attachments have negative impacts on the project, which can manifest as constant arguments, contempt, jealousy, and so on. All these are manifestations of selfishness. -
Fa-study Group is Part of the Process of Improving as a Whole
2009-04-04In my view, it is important for cultivators within the same family to study the Fa together and share experiences with each other. Thus we can remind each other that we are cultivators and must deal with everything from the perspective of the Fa. -
Economic Persecution With Righteous Thoughts
2009-04-04The school administrators wouldn't let me teach culture and literature from Chinese history because they did not know I could clarify the truth of the persecution from other subjects such as art, music and calligraphy. I had never told them that the wisdom of mankind in inventing everything came from Dafa. It is Dafa that gives wisdom to practitioners who study these subjects. -
Attached to Oneself is the Root of Jealousy
2009-04-03I have now realized that being attached to oneself is the root of jealousy. We should place ourselves on the same level as others, not above them. Each being is formed by the Fa and each one has different characteristics. That is to say, each being has strengths and weaknesses. -
Our Responsibilities to Young Practitioners
2009-04-03Before he could put down his luggage, Qiqi jumped up and ran over to him, forgetting about the Fa study and asked, "What have you got me?" I said, "Qiqi, we're not done yet. How come you ran away?" My husband said to him, "Did you come to get me to join your Fa study? A good child studies the Fa a lot! Come along, let's study the Fa together." -
Lotus Flowers Shining in My Eyes
2009-04-02When encountering some urgent matters, I often had ideas on how to handle situations and thought about backup plans in case they didn‘t work out. Later, I realized that my lack of confidence was because I didn’t have a strong enough faith in Teacher and Fa rectification. -
What I’ve Enlightened to While Cultivating—Rays of Sunlight Appear
2009-04-02However, there are a very few practitioners in the small city. Consequently, there is not much face-to-face truth clarification done here, although “Falun Dafa is Good” and “Withdrawing from the CCP” can be seen everywhere in the city.This is the main reason why we moved to this city: To clarify the truth to everyday people face-to-face. Being practitioners during the period of Fa rectification, we must accomplish our mission. -
A Reminder about the Seriousness of Cultivation
2009-04-01Our fellow practitioners all have experienced hardships. Several are still being detained and the old forces (a negative aspect in the universe), in the form of illness karma, are taking away relatively young practitioners one after another outside the detention centres. Fellow practitioners, we must examine how we are cultivating ourselves, whether our cultivation goals are right, whether our motivation of doing things are correct and what are our fundamental attachments. -
Eliminating the Attachment of Relying on Others
2009-04-01When we overly rely on other practitioners, we form a bad field, a selfish field, that is actually alive. If the field is not very strong, it might manifest to us only a few attachments and human notions, which may bring us some tribulations. Under this circumstance, we should look within, and then we are able to get rid of it. -
Falun Dafa Leads the Way to My True Self
2009-04-01In June 2000, the forced labour camp transferred us into an enclosed courtyard, where they secretly and more brutally persecuted us. Before we left the squadron, we unfurled a huge banner that said "Falun Dafa," which took a few nights for us to weave with a crochet hook and yarn. Everyone nearby was shocked. All the practitioners present pressed their palms together to heshi respectfully.
