Discussion on the Fundamental Point of Cultivation

2008-10-31

I definitely should not stay in such a dirty place. My original life is calling me. I should cherish the chance that comes only once in millions of years. I should cultivate from my heart and look inward. If I can just see things from the standpoint of the Fa and of saving sentient beings, all the difficulties will self-destruct and all the interference will disintegrate.

Let Go of Selfishness and Save Sentient Beings

2008-10-30

In the cabinet they opened, there was a box of truth clarification information disks about the persecution of Falun Gong. But they didn't discover them. When they opened it, I was very calm, only telling them the truth about Falun Gong and treating them as my own family members who were waiting for salvation.

She said, "Lower your voice! Lower your voice!" When I finished the first lecture I asked her if she could understand it. She said that she could. I asked her why she no longer asked me to lower my voice. She said, "It is a good thing. We do not need to be nervous."

"Looking Inward" is a Cultivation Tool, and Should Not Become a Catch Phrase

2008-10-29

However, we all forget one critical thing--that "looking inward" is the way to truly cultivate ourselves. Looking inward is the process of cultivation and of assimilating ourselves into Dafa. Thus, "looking inward" should not become a catch phrase. It wouldn't work if we only talked about "looking inward" and "exposing our human attachments."

Responsibilities

2008-10-29

Before, I forced myself to clarify the truth, distribute materials, and save people, in order to remove my attachments and pursuits. Now, it's totally different. We are Fa-rectification period Dafa disciples. We have huge responsibilities. We must be responsible to the Fa, the cosmos, sentient beings, and the future.

The Wonders of Falun Dafa

2008-10-28

I have greatly benefited from Dafa in more ways than I can say. For one thing, compared to my peers, I look very healthy and young. People who know me all compliment me on my youthful appearance. I found this was a perfect opportunity to dispel people's misconceptions about Falun Gong and ultimately save them.

Reading the Fa with a Calm Mind

2008-10-28

The difference now is that I read the book with a calm mind and focus on each word and each sentence. When I do not understand something, I read the same sentence again and again, until I understand the principles corresponding to my level, before I move on. I am very attentive and not absent-minded at all, nor do I think about other things.

Learn to Give Up Attachments

2008-10-26

On our path of cultivation, there is little time to try again. We should not waste any time available to us. When our main consciousnesses is strong, we can really feel that bad things that we do are sins. We should always remind ourselves and cultivate more diligently within the time left.

Human Thoughts or Divine Thoughts

2008-10-26

Cultivation is the process of human and divine thoughts rising up in turn. When the divine thoughts are strong, things go smoothly, and when human thoughts take over, there is interference. The divine thoughts come from our Fa study and cultivation. When we cultivate away human thoughts and strengthen our divine thoughts, that is thinking righteously.

Get Rid of Human Attachments and Interference Will be Automatically Eliminated

2008-10-25

So why do I still have attachments to the human world, especially to resentment, competitiveness, suspicion, and jealousy? I looked inwards and realized I had been studying the Fa as a formality, but not learning it from my heart.

Stories from Prison

2008-10-25

Before his departure, he said to me sincerely, "I will practice Falun Gong after I am released." He was sentenced to three years of imprisonment, and he knew that my term was four years. He asked me to go to his home to teach him Falun Gong, and gave me his home address. I agreed, thinking that one more person would obtain the Fa.

Using Righteous Thoughts to Look at Things That Happen to Us

2008-10-24

After my release, I took every opportunity to study the Fa. I managed to find a copy of Master's "Fa Teaching at the 2008 New York Conference." I studied this lecture repeatedly and transcribed it four times. Now I feel changes in my body every day. Master often gives me hints in my dreams, reminding me to look inward and strive forward diligently.

Cultivation Requires Perseverance

2008-10-23

When there is a period of slacking off and one is in low spirits, we should be alert and understand that this is exactly the moment when the righteous (Buddha nature) and the evil (demonic nature) are battling in our own dimension. It is also the time when we make our choices. It is completely up to us what path we choose.
