In a Few Words: The Solemnity of Cultivation Practice

2003-03-25

There are no models in cultivation practice. Every step within it should be steadfast. However glorious one’s Fa-rectification experience is, we should not treat it with human mentalities and accrue the attachment of zealotry or adoration but concentrate on what we should do with rationality.

Escaping from Danger with Righteous Thoughts

2003-03-24

One night, when several practitioners got together, police suddenly broke into the room, and illegally kidnapped them. At that moment, one practitioner had only one thought in her mind, "I cannot be arrested. I will firmly deny all of this." In the face of the vicious people, she was very calm. She questioned those police sternly and uprightly, and stopped their illegal acts.

Some New Thoughts After the Trip to Geneva

2003-03-24

I think we should not only do things, but improve on the inside as well; all that we come across is also cultivation. I just feel that I might not always do Dafa work out of understanding and out of compassion. I feel that sometimes I don’t do something with my heart; instead of doing one thing right, I run around everywhere and try doing everything. The result is that, it may look from the outside that I do alot, but in reality I don’t.

A Solemn Moment

2003-03-22

Looking at the female practitioners carrying the wreaths, I could see that they were not simply carrying these wreaths, they were bearing them with the deepest of respect for the tragic waste of these lives. I was deeply touched by the heart-felt reverence that showed in their solemn faces and in their slow and dignified footsteps.

Left Hand and Right Hand

2003-03-22

No matter whether the persecution is aiming at Dafa disciples in mainland China or overseas disciples, it is actually aiming at all Dafa disciples. Even if we are not the direct targets, we are still under the test of what is on our mind and how we react when other Dafa disciples are being persecuted. The indifference to the persecution of other Dafa disciples is by no means a state that a Dafa particle should be in.

Break Free of Selfishness and Look at Things from the Overall Situation

2003-03-19

When confronted with problems, we automatically think of what we have done, how others feel about our cultivation, what attachments we have, how we think this should be done etc. It is all self centered. But in terms of what it means in Fa rectification, how it affects the overall situation, what the overall situation requires, what we can do to make the overall situation better--these things are often forgotten.

2003-03-18

The practitioners wife put on her clothes, stood by the door and reprimanded the evil policemen loudly, "If you dare to break in shamelessly like this, I will not let you get away with it.

Let Our Hearts Be United As One

2003-03-18

Whether the persecution is against practitioners inside China or abroad; whether the damage is physical or financial; whether the forms of persecution are savage beatings or hypocritical deception, the evil targets the Fa, not practitioners. Therefore, our hearts need to be united as one, although our tasks may be different.

Strengthen Righteous Thoughts and the Main Consciousness

2003-03-17

We all know the importance of studying the Fa, yet many of us make excuses for ourselves and do not study the Fa with a calm mind. I know some practitioners who have not read the book, practiced the exercises, or sent forth righteous thoughts for a long time.

Appealing for Falun Gong in Front of the Chinese Consulate in Milan.

2003-03-16

Sometimes on my way to the consulate, it did not rain, but as soon as I sat down outside the consulate, it would start raining with gusts of wicked wind. Once when I was sending forth righteous thoughts in the rain, at first I felt suppressed as if a heavy stone were weighing down on me. Some time later, my legs were in pain even when I did not have them crossed, my arms and back starting aching.

Some Understandings of Teacher's Recent Comment on a Practitioner's Article

2003-03-16

I realised that the different approaches practitioners use actually amounted to only different task allocations. Often the people we clarify the truth to won't immediately believe what they hear at first. Results are eventually almost always only achieved through joint efforts by different practitioners, using a variety of means.

Thoughts About "Heavenly Demons"

2003-03-15

I indeed have a lot of areas that need to be corrected during cultivation. What was deemed a great virtue in the past now becomes the biggest obstacle. When I consider habits like sticking to the rules and being uncompromising, as well as qualities that I refused to consider as positive in the past, it has often made me think twice.
