My Amazing Father
2003-01-29My dad's ceaseless efforts inspired me. As long as the television continues with its slanderous rumours, we will continuously refute these rumours. We will clarify the truth over and over again until people come to understand. -
A Short Story of Compassion
2003-01-29Through reading the books of Falun Dafa my compassion became greater, and as I understood more and more about letting go of sentimental attachments, I found that what replaced them was a simpler, more genuine compassion which could not be affected by how others treated me and which would not come and go with the passing of my emotions. I learnt to take my own feelings more lightly and to consider others feelings more carefully in my words and actions. -
Going to Beijing with Righteous Thoughts
2003-01-28I looked around and saw many tourists in front of the Memorial. I walked to the tourists, pulled out the banner, and held it high above my head. I shouted twice, "Falun Dafa is good!" "Falun Dafa is the righteous Law!" "Clear the name of Falun Dafa and clear the name of our Teacher!" -
Discard Human Notions, and Strengthen the Awareness of Being as one Body
2003-01-28We had only two days to prepare for the activity. In these two days, we had to sign up, prepare the information materials and the signboards, inform practitioners, write materials, and borrow different kinds of equipment. If we were lead by human notions in this period of time, it would have been completely impossible to have had a satisfactory result with such a rush. The process was in fact a process of continuously discarding human notions. -
My Understanding About Individual Cultivation and Cultivation in Fa-rectification
2003-01-28My understanding of the difference between cultivation in Fa-rectification and individual cultivation is that it is a question of whether one can position Dafa in the right place. Those practising individual cultivation put the improvement of their levels in a higher position than the Fa, so no matter how they practice cultivation, they cannot step out of selfishness even if they reach the standard of consummation. -
Everyday People, Good People, and People Who Practice Cultivation
2003-01-27Through this cultivation process, my personal experience and understanding has been this: As Dafa practitioners, we are, first of all, members of society. Therefore, the way we speak and act should conform to ordinary human society's form. Moreover, we must be good people in ordinary human society and demonstrate the righteous human principles of "sincerity, kindness, and tolerance." -
Let Us Do Well in Playing the Main Roles
2003-01-26I found that when doing local truth clarification work with the media and government officials, I was often passively holding out hope that everyday people would help us. I had not regarded this as a problem of my Xinxing (heart nature) and had not given myself strict requirements. But isn't this vain hope the same as reliance? It is already an attachment... -
Be Upright Without Fear
2003-01-25Once, after leaving my office, I did some things for exposing the evil persecution in China. During the way home, I thought my family would complain about my returning home late without a call to them. As a result, it was indeed so after coming home. After this, I understood that the mentality of fear was the source of tribulation, so I no longer feared anything. In return, I no longer have such tribulations. -
Doing Well Outside But Not Doing Well At Home: There Is Still a Gap
2003-01-25The more I reasoned with him the more confusing it got and the angrier I became. I recalled that one fellow practitioner mentioned that to clarify the truth to a few people whom you knew very well might only take a few minutes, but before that, the elevation of ones xinxing [moral quality] took a few months. -
"I Truly Believe That Instead of Three Years, I Can Go Home in Three Days"
2003-01-24One practitioner held his court verdict and said, "I am sentenced to one year in forced labour camp. Since two months have passed already, I can go home in ten months." He also held the other practitioner's court verdict and said, "Take a look at yours. You are sentenced to three years in forced labour camp." The other practitioner said steadfastly, "I am not going to look at it, they have no right at all to sentence me to a forced labour camp...I truly believe that instead of three years I can go home in three days." -
The Beauty and Goodness of Dafa
2003-01-24What are the beauty and goodness of Dafa? The topic is very broad and the meanings too profound to completely convey. The following is an attempt to explain my understanding of the beauty and goodness of Dafa, which I would like to share with you. -
The Wonderful Story of how I Discovered Dafa
2003-01-23I have found a cultivation way superior to what I had learned from before. Whoever practises Falun Gong feels peaceful, relaxed and can always treat others kindly. They open their minds and are in complete control of their lives. To me, this is the magic of Falun Gong. It is said that the great way is extremely simple and easy. That is what I understand Falun Gong to be! -
Clarifying the Truth in the Police Station
2003-01-23I said, "You are the police and you should know the law. It should not count if you cannot show me the law. Jiang does not represent the law and he is putting himself above the law. The persecution of Falun Gong violates the 36th and the 41st articles of the constitution: namely, a citizen has the freedom of belief, and the right to legally appeal to the appeals offices." -
Let's Not Ignore Our Families while Clarifying the Truth
2003-01-23We are anxious to have them accept that Falun Dafa is good. However haste will solve nothing. We should let them feel we are truly families. Through cultivation we have become magnanimous, open-minded, and more concerned about others. When they accept us, naturally they also accept our choices. Harmonizing the Fa on the level of everyday society is our responsibility -
Righteous Thoughts Lead to Positive Outcomes
2003-01-22Once she read about a female practitioner who spent 8 Yuan out of the 200 Yuan [The average monthly income of an urban worker is 500 Yuan] her son gave her to buy a pair of trousers and used the rest to print truth-clarification materials. My colleague said that she almost cried. "Falun Dafa practitioners are amazing. I have not brought my money with me today, but I will pay for some of the materials. This is my tribute to Falun Dafa."
