Manhattan, I Hope That We Will Meet Once Again!

2005-11-27

Before I had a chance to react to her hug and her words, she had left. I suddenly understood. She was someone who had undergone much searching and refused to give up the search for the true meaning of life. Today, however, she found her answers and sense of belonging in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. Not long after, to my surprise she came to our exhibit again. This time she brought two of her girlfriends with her. She gave me a big hug once again.

Before and After my Husband Started Practising Falun Dafa

2005-11-25

Soon, he had read all of them and learnt the exercises. He asked me to wake him up every morning to do the exercises. Before he was quite lazy, and never got up before 8:00 a.m. The most important thing is that he quit drinking and gambling as soon as he started reading the Fa. Through him I saw the supernormal power of Dafa and Master's benevolence. It was not coincidence that my husband started to practise as soon as I started the family-based materials production site.

Some of my Understandings about Getting Rid of Attachments

2005-11-25

Since I first enlightened that getting angry is an attachment, and determined myself to get rid of it, it's been over a month that I haven't argued with my wife. My relationship with my wife has been very good so far. No matter what happens, I look inside and try to dig out my shortcomings and attachments. Before, I would get caught up in the conflict, and instead of looking inside, I would blame my wife and find excuses for getting angry at her. Now I can see that I wasn't cultivating myself at all when that happened.

Continuously Letting Go of Self While Assimilating to Falun Dafa

2005-11-24

At first I met up with two practitioners. I gave them Teacher's articles. They told me that although they no longer did the exercises and studied the Fa they would not renounce Falun Dafa. Alas, they did not know what was happening elsewhere. "How great it would have been if you had come earlier. We would have not wasted an entire year." I was encouraged and decided to create an environment for group Fa study. At that time, the first Fa study group was established with the three of us. After that, I began to visit some of the elderly practitioners.

Overcoming Sleepiness to Study the Falun Gong Teachings

2005-11-24

For example, when we feel thirsty during Fa-study, we will stop to get some water. When we feel cold or hot during Fa-study, we will stop to add or remove some clothes. These things seem like very normal things to do. But for a practitioner, it is not normal. Sometimes, when I was in a very good state and studying the Fa, suddenly I would feel thirsty. When I stopped to drink some water and returned, my focus would be gone. Why had this happened?

"Where did you go to cure your illness?"

2005-11-23

When others saw me, they all asked me with great surprise, "Where did you go to cure your illness?" I replied, "I did not take any medicine, did not get any injections, did not go to any hospital, I simply recovered because of practising Falun Gong." Since then, I have also gotten rid of my bad habits, such as playing cards, smoking and drinking. Everyone witnessed my changes. Anyone who had such an experience would consider it to be miraculous.

Studying the Falun Gong Teachings Well is the Essential Requirement for Taking the Right Path

2005-11-22

During these past few years as I distributed materials containing factual information about Falun Dafa in or spoke about Falun Dafa and the persecution face-to-face, I often faced danger. However, each time Teacher helped me and rescued me. My understanding is that as long as we believe in Teacher and Falun Dafa on our cultivation path, we can brave through anything no matter how difficult it appears to be.

Some Thoughts on "Letting Go of Life and Death"

2005-11-22

In the past six months, several Falun Dafa practitioners in our city were illegally arrested, after which we held some sharing on this among local practitioners. We all realised that we fell short in saving sentient beings because we could not let go of life and death, and we all had different degrees of attachment to fear.

Strive Forward, Become a Qualified Fa-Rectification Period Falun Dafa Practitioner

2005-11-21

After I took this task, I began to look for the next level contact person. I found three practitioners and told them my thoughts, and asked them to find practitioners who would be in contact with them. In this way, we set up the distribution network. Due to many practitioners having righteous thoughts and righteous acts, and who were rational and cultivated their speech, the network ensured the safe operation and fast distribution of materials from the production site.

Recalling Teacher's Lecture Series in Guangzhou

2005-11-21

There were many moving stories throughout the Guangzhou seminar. Before the lecture, Teacher would come to class early and answer questions for everyone. Before beginning to lecture, He would pick up off the ground lost money and train tickets dropped by practitioners and place them on the table and announce that whoever lost anything should come and pick it up after class.

My Understanding of Taking the Fa as the Teacher

2005-11-18

Actually, "good or bad" can not be seen by others; the true measurement is in the heart and mind of the individual. If a practitioner is able to keep his righteous thoughts at all times, that would be considered solid cultivation. What is seen on the surface, is, in a way, only a matter of formality. The status of another practitioner's cultivation practise is impossible to determine.

Studying the Fa Well and Looking Inward Are Keys to Good Coordination

2005-11-18

It's normal that practitioners have different views. But when conflicts arise, the key is to put the Fa as the most important and look inward according to the standard of the Fa. When stalemates occur, the major reason is that we are not studying the Fa well and not looking inward to find out our own problems, but instead blaming others.

The Difference Between Life and Death Depends on One Thought

2005-11-15

On September 12th, 2005, after getting off work, I was suddenly hit by a horrendous headache. I sent forth righteous thoughts on my way home. After I got home, it only got worse. I felt dizzy and chilled, and my heart was beating rapidly. I could barely stand to change my clothes. It was indescribable how I felt; the headache was unbearably intense. I realised that it was evil interference and that I had to disintegrate and eliminate it, so I sat down to send forth righteous thoughts. I felt so dizzy and my heart was so painful that I thought I was going to die.

Coming to Practise Falun Dafa after a Myriad of Tribulations

2005-11-15

When I told this practitioner about my thought, he laughed, "You must be joking." He really thought I was joking. At the time, the environment was still very evil as the persecution was rampant. Besides the local police station sending people to investigate him, the school officials also named him in the school meetings. But I still said to him seriously, "Really, I want to practise!"

Changing Notions - Stepping Out For Falun Dafa

2005-11-13

Although we could not have a time and place to study the Falun Gong teachings or practise with other practitioners, we kept studying and practising at home. We kept exchanging views with fellow practitioners, no matter how great the pressure we didn't give up practising. How can suppression change a heart enlightened by the universal truth?
