Keeping Pace with the Cultivation and Practise in Fa-rectification (Shared at the 2003 Benelux Fa Conference)
2003-05-19I clarified the truth to different kinds of people from different points of view. For example, young girls always like to improve their looks, when they saw me still looking so young they then asked me: "Sister, you do not look like a person approaching 45, could you tell us how did you make it." I told them: "I did not do much on improving my looks, I just Practise Falun Gong everyday. After hearing this they were astonished and asked: "Do you still Practise? We are not allowed to do this here." -
Righteous Thoughts and Actions Cause Zhuozhou City Brainwashing Centre to Shut Down
2003-05-18It was a place full of evil minded people whom cruelly persecuted Dafa practitioners. Its authorities told the outside that they "persuaded, educated and cared for" Dafa practitioners in order to "transform" them. In reality, they used brutal torture methods to try to brainwash and transform practitioners. They used electric batons to shock them, belts to beat them and clamps to fasten their thumbs onto the bunk beds, so that they could neither stand nor sit. They often slapped practitioners heedlessly. -
My Three Trips to Beijing to Clarify the Truth about Falun Dafa
2003-05-18He asked "Have you come here before? Why did you come back again?" I said: "I'm appealing for my Teacher, for Falun Dafa, and for those Falun Dafa practitioners who are illegally imprisoned." The policeman said: "That's really great, it's not for yourself. OK, I am unable to handle things above my level of duty, but it is within my power to let you go." So I returned home safely. I was very happy with the righteous behaviour of that particular policeman. -
My Cultivation Progress (Shared at the 2003 Benelux Fa Conference)
2003-05-18In April 1999, Falun Gong practitioners were invited to demonstrate the exercises in a meeting of Chang Qing association in Brussels. I had practiced Tai Chi for several years and also learned Qigong. Therefore, I was very interested in practitioners demonstration so I bought a copy of Zhuan Falun and a videotape of exercises and took them home. After reading the book from beginning to end, I was deeply impressed by the manner of Master Li: he was tireless in teaching others, responsible to the people, spoke out frankly without reservation and talked about things that others dare not to say. -
Becoming a "real" Practitioner (Shared at the 2003 Benelux Fa conference)
2003-05-18Certain matters sounded so inconceivable to me that I just couldnt accept them. After a lot of discussions with my husband and after reading certain paragraphs dozens of times again, I finally succeeded in finishing the book completely and suddenly everything became clearer to me! I immediately started reading for a second time and this time it went more smoothly and the incredible understanding started to grow that everything I had learned before was after all not the absolute truth! -
Hoisting Sails in the Ocean of the Fa to Head Home
2003-05-18In the long river of history, human life is as short-lived as a jet of spray. In the vastness of the universe, human capability is as negligible as a speck of dust. So many wise men have been searching for the true meaning of life and the genuine origin of the universe in order to obtain eternal happiness. However, after ages of reincarnation, after all the hardships in seeking, they still cannot find the answers. They are still wondering when the genuine Teacher will come into being... -
Co-cultivators (Shared at the 2003 Benelux Fa Conference)
2003-05-17Because of human selfishness, when disputes and conflicts arose, the relationship among practitioners, which should be solemn, became worse than that of ordinary good people. For some time, this puzzled me. After calming down, using the Fa to judge the situation and looking inside, I found that the problems were due to my attachments. During communications with practitioners, I always get confused by what is on the surface, and get attached to ones external behaviour, I do not see the true nature of that person the great cultivator. -
Learn Responsibility for Yourself Be Strict With Yourself Before Demanding it From Others
2003-05-17An everyday person more readily accepts opinions and viewpoints from outside himself. That persons mind is not yet ready to examine his conscience, because he or she does not want to assume responsibility for his or her words and actions. Also, when things dont go well, then that person can put the blame on others, saying, it is not my fault, it is the other persons fault. Is this bad? It is really quite bad to act like that! -
The Great Law can Harmonise Everything (Shared at the 2003 Benelux Fa-conference)
2003-05-16I mostly feared that I would lose the comfortable life I had, however, all the mostly feared things were pushed on me one by one. Even so, I never gave up the belief in truth, compassion and tolerance. I am even more diligent in cultivation because Master teaches us in the article A Brief Statement of Mine "Other people may treat us badly, but we do not treat others badly, nor do we treat people as enemies." According to the teachings of Master, no matter who we are faced with, we have to consider them before we think of ourselves. We have to do more good things. -
Sharing Article: Path (Shared at the 2003 Benelux Fa-conference)
2003-05-16This life without any moral values led me to act in an irrational way and my only solution was to get away from my family and my country, and as a matter of fact my life became meaningless. And in the darkness a light appeared to me the day I read the book of Falun Dafa. I said the day but actually I should say at night because I read the book in one night and my state of mind changed radically, I had found a sense to my life again. -
With Righteous Thoughts, a Terminally Ill Woman Receives a New Life Through Practising Falun Dafa
2003-05-14The older woman's family was full of joy, as if they were celebrating Chinese New Year. Many relatives called and asked about her condition. Her family told them, "She was cured, and she was cured by practising Falun Gong!" Some relatives didn't believe what they heard and so they travelled several hundred miles to see for themselves. Once they witnessed the older woman walking around the house and even performing some household chores, many of them said they would go home and read the book themselves-- because it was indeed miraculous. -
Short Stories From Falun Gong Practitioners in China
2003-05-14Whenever the province superior issued an order to persecute Falun Gong, he would reply that there were no practitioners under his jurisdiction. Then he would inform practitioners in the village to be on the alert for inspection. After the event, he would say, "How long will I be in this office? The people at the top issue some unjustifiable policy and we at the bottom have a strategy for dealing with them. I know Falun Gong is good, so I'll help practitioners. I will not commit the wicked deed of naming names to hurt others!" -
Falun Dafa Has Spread More Deeply and Widely Across Europe

Righteous Thoughts and Actions Eradicate Persecutors' Efforts
2003-05-13Some people left, one after another, after they had learnt the true facts about Falun Gong. The police then tried another method and asked the Falun Dafa practitioners to sign a piece of blank paper. The practitioners firmly refused. The police - almost 30 strong - came forward menacingly; however, they couldn't intimidate the practitioners at all. They couldn't accomplish their evil goals. -
True Cultivation During Fa Rectification (Benelux Fa Conference 2003)
2003-05-13When I started my job more than two years ago, I almost couldnt stand it. Receiving calls from people was not my favourite occupation in the first place, and I also knew nothing of computers. By improving Xinxing through studying Fa and looking inside on one hand, and building up my worldly skills on the other, I gradually overcame my tribulations. Through trial and error, I learned to reach beyond the realm of human disputes, and to serve people unconditionally with compassion.
