Looking Within and Finding Attachments
2008-06-14One day I went to someone's home to clarify the truth. Two days later, a practitioner told me that when I spoke to that person, he immediately thought that I was a cadre. He said that I always ordered others to do things. I was very surprised at that because I had never realized it. In the process of communicating with this practitioner, I suddenly realized the root cause of my problem. -
My Experience During the Earthquake
2008-06-14During the disaster, the practitioners were very calm, not flustered or scared. Every practitioner was thinking of how to save people. During the earthquake, many people witnessed the miracle of Dafa. After the earthquake, practitioners began working harder then ever to clarify the truth to save people, and more and more people have quit the CCP. -
Saving Sentient Beings Is Urgent
2008-06-13There was an article on the Minghui website (Chinese version of Clearwisdom.net) that told about a practitioner who tried to persuade a person to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations, but no matter what she said, that person just refused to quit. The practitioner was not frustrated or angry. Instead, she said with a smile, "The next time you meet someone who suggests that you quit the CCP, please take his or her advice." I really respect this practitioner. -
Sentimentality and Compassion - One Cultivator's Understanding
2008-06-13Compassion is completely detached from "self", thus one is not concerned whether other people are familiar or strangers. It is to be kind to all people. Compassion is not to measure others with one's own criteria, instead, it is to put oneself in other people's shoes and understand others. For a practitioner, it is also to kindly help others to raise their levels and meet the standards of the Fa at different levels. -
Eliminating the False Appearance of Sickness Karma Using Righteous Thoughts
2008-06-12Sometimes, when we saw that she was having so many difficulties, we as daughters really wanted to let her lie down and rest, and we wanted to help her finish what she had to do. Whenever this notion came out, Master's words, "In Fa-Rectification Your Thoughts Have to be Righteous, Not Human" helped us continuously correct ourselves so that we were able to maintain pure, righteous thoughts to enhance our mother's righteous thoughts and help her through every challenging step. -
We Must Not Lower Our Requirements of Ourselves Because We Are New Practitioners
2008-06-12We all know that time is precious. For the new practitioners, we not only have to catch up with personal cultivation, but we also have to be in line with the standard of a Dafa practitioner in the Fa-rectification period to do well the three things. Cultivation is very serious. We should not change the standard for ourselves regardless of whether we are new practitioners or senior ones. -
The Changes in My Family After Watching the Divine Performing Arts Shows
2008-06-11As my mother watched the show, she murmured: "Look at their spirit. They are totally different from what the propaganda says about them." She then said to me, "I'll be honest with you. When others say something bad about Falun Gong, I do not like it." This was from the bottom of her heart. She watched it over and over again, and she learned to sing the song that Bai Xue sang, "Discard the Old for the New." -
Our Children's Behaviors Reflect Our Own Inadequacies
2008-06-11With regard to our young practitioners, it is the parents' responsibility to bring them up well. If our children's behavior is unsatisfactory, then as practitioners we should first look within ourselves to find our own inadequacies or attachments. After we correct our own behavior, our children's problems will very likely be solved as well. -
Learn to Listen
2008-06-10One will accomplish more if he wants to learn from anyone he meets who is better than him. While listening to a friends' suggestion or opinion, one will learn new ideas, new technologies, and be more harmonious with his friend. Confucius said, "If three of us are walking together, at least one of the other two is good enough to be my teacher." -
The People Praise Falun Gong After My Husband's Miraculous Recovery from a Motorcycle Accident
2008-06-10I, too, realized some of my problems. Although I had repeatedly reminded my husband to study the Fa and told him that he must build a good foundation in his Fa study if he were to do well the task of a divine being, I was harsh when I reminded him. There was no compassion in my manner. I searched inward and decided it was all because of sentimentality -
My Enlightenment After Attending the 2008 New York Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference
2008-06-09An ordinary person's life has "birth, aging, illness, and death." A cultivator has conflicts and tribulations. Those are inevitable. Since it is now the final moment of Fa rectification, the time for us to cultivate is very limited. -
We Must Uphold the Standard of Dafa in Relations with Our Families
2008-06-09Our homes are part of our cultivation environment as Falun Dafa practitioners. Every member of our families came here for the Fa. If family members also learn to practice Falun Dafa, aren't they practitioners too? How can you look down on fellow practitioners? Aren't you preventing your family members from obtaining the Fa? Is Dafa taught for you alone? -
Do Not Get Lost When Facing the Big Disaster
2008-06-08Although we have gone through a lot in the past years and should have sufficiently matured facing these things, when things happen, sometimes our human notions still surface. Emotions in the human realm still affect us. The key here is our basis for looking at these things. We must not forget that we are Dafa practitioners walking on a divine path and can never be swayed from our task of assisting Master in saving sentient beings. -
Strengthening Righteous Thoughts
2008-06-08When we carry out Fa-validation activities, do we consider ourselves divine beings with divine power that are engaged in saving people, or do we just think of ourselves as practitioners distributing truth-clarification flyers and doing things? Are our thoughts in the divine realm or the human realm? Bad people only dare to arrest human beings. They dare not and cannot touch divine beings. -
Passengers on a Ship Witness the Miracle of Dafa
2008-06-07The practitioner is from Dafasi Town, Wuxue City in Hubei Province. When she was 12 years old, a Buddhist monk saw her and asked to look at her right palm. The monk saw through his third eye that there was a lotus flower in her palm. The monk was surprised and said, "Little sister, I should call you Master. You will achieve Right Fruit, very high Fruit Status in the future. There will be a true divine being coming down to save you." Ten years later, she was introduced to Falun Dafa and became a practitioner.
