As soon as I had some free time, I wanted to write some cultural articles. I didn't think much about it at first. Unexpectedly, when I really started writing, my mind was empty. I thought I couldn't waste time. I must use this free time to write the articles. This idea kept lingering in…

I am a Dafa disciple who began cultivating in Dafa in 2009. I’m seventy-one years old now. When I think about my cultivation journey, there are so many stories over these past ten-plus years. Yet, when I pick up the pen, I don’t know where to begin.

Persisting in memorizing the Fa has been an essential part of my Fa study for years. So far, I have memorized Zhuan Falun twenty times, and I am currently on the sixth lecture of my twenty-first round. Persisting in memorizing the Fa helps improve my Xinxing through the process. This is because Fa…

My parents in this lifetime have caused me great psychological harm. They are neither kind nor compassionate and have been extremely selfish and self-serving. After obtaining the Fa and beginning cultivation, I came to understand that being born into such a family was not only due to past-life…

People who come into this world have all memories of their past lives erased. Lost in ignorance and confusion, amidst endless suffering, they gradually develop an instinct to seek benefit and avoid harm, striving for fame, fortune, and emotions in the present reality to gain temporary happiness and…

I read the Minghui.org feature article "Our Master" over and over again, letting my tears flow freely. Only our Master has such compassion that can transform hearts and souls, and such great grace that can shake the universe.

Since obtaining the Fa in March 1998, I have been cultivating Falun Dafa for 26 years. When I take a moment to quietly reflect, I ask myself: what has sustained me through all these years of trials and tribulations? I believe it is my unwavering faith in the Fa, supported by righteous thoughts.

The term “test”, as the name suggests, refers to the process of evaluation and examination. It is a commonly used noun. However, when applied to our Dafa cultivation practice, its meaning transforms, taking on a sacred and solemn connotation.

This September, I started using my daughter’s company vehicle to pick up and drop off my grandson for school. There are five vehicles in total, and each has a sign at the front stating: “No Seat Reservation Allowed.” However, people seem to ignore the rule and continue reserving seats daily as if…

This afternoon, I received a pigeon message from a fellow practitioner. The message called for practitioners to collectively send forth righteous thoughts in response to attacks on Dafa by a former Shen Yun performer and The New York Times.

I obtained the Fa in 1998 and have been cultivating for 26 years. I felt that I have let go of most attachments fairly well, but I have always struggled to let go of my attachment to my daughter. This has allowed the old forces to repeatedly exploit the gaps, and for a period of time, my daughter…

Everyone longs for a lasting marriage, yet when faced with reality, they often feel that marriage is like a 'fortress'—those outside want to rush in, while those inside want to escape. Since 2013, China’s divorce rate has been rising year by year, reaching 43.53% in 2022, the highest in…

Master said in On Dafa (Lunyu), "While people often claim that their scientific pursuits are to “improve quality of life,” it is technological competition that drives them. And in most cases they have come about only after people have pushed out the divine and abandoned moral codes meant to…

I was born in a small village in the north. In 1995, Falun Dafa began spreading in the village. After practicing Dafa, villagers measured their words and actions with the principles of "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance," improved their morals, considered others in everything they did…

When studying the section on 'Jealousy' in Lecture Seven of Zhuan Falun, Master said, “And even among people who are sincere about spiritual practice, you sometimes see people being disrespectful of one another. It’s easy for jealousy to creep in if you are still competitive.” When I used…

July 20th of 1999, this special day, by now has already passed more than 25 years. Whenever I think of that day, pictures are still vivid in my mind, and I am still overwhelmed with emotion. Today, I will be sharing the story of that day with fellow practitioners.

July 20th, 1999, was a day that Li Yuanhua will never forget. It was also the first day that a large number of Falun Gong practitioners who went to the government for peaceful petitions were arrested by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). At that time, Li Yuanhua was teaching at a university in…

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month in 2001, during the severe winter in North China, I went to Beijing to validate the Fa. I was illegally arrested by malicious police officers from the Qianmen Police Station at Tiananmen Square and was later picked up by my local public security officers…

My profound realization is that through memorizing Zhuan Falun, Hong Yin, and new lectures, my wisdom has been unlocked. Memorizing Fa during the tribulations has also added a lot of righteous thoughts and confidence to myself.

The topic of visiting is quite normal for ordinary people, but it holds a different significance for practitioners. For practitioners, visiting means saving people, spreading the truth to save sentient beings. It also involves studying the lectures together at a fellow practitioner's home,…

Three months ago, I felt a pain in my waist after practicing meditation. I looked inward to find out what I had done wrong to cause the pain. After searching for a long time, I still couldn't find what went wrong. I am so sad. As the pain worsened, I had a fear: why are old practitioners…

Master said in Teaching and Explaining the Fa at the Metropolitan New York Fa Conference, “If you do well in cultivating yourselves it will have a bearing on major things in the future cosmos. The process of Dafa disciples' personal Consummation is over, but as my disciple, as a Dafa disciple…

I firmly started practicing Falun Gong in 2012. Because I obtained the Fa late, I cherished it very much and did not dare to waste time. I paid close attention to the three things. But after my daughter gave birth, the situation changed.

The appearance of mobile phones in the Latter Day of the Dharma and the End Times replaces computers, televisions, currency, letters, etc. Although it makes communication more convenient, it also creates a distance between people. Ordinary people may become less diligent at work, unwilling to do…

After the Minghui Editorial Office issued a notice to uninstall WeChat, the vast majority of practitioners were able to uninstall WeChat. Some practitioners truly went through a heart-wrenching cultivation process before uninstalling it. Of course, in today's society, many units, schools, and…

I was very anxious after reading the exchange articles between Minghui and PureInsight practitioners on finding their fundamental attachments. What are my fundamental attachments? After searching for a long time, I still couldn't find where my fundamental attachment was. Later I thought that…

As a disciple of Falun Dafa from Master's hometown, I feel fortunate to have obtained the Fa early; but regretfully, I am not adept at cultivation. After reading through the first edition of Zhuan Falun, my understanding remained at the superficial level of Falun Dafa promoting people to be…

My father has practiced Dafa for twelve years and is 85 years old this year. On weekdays, he often drives with mother and fellow practitioners to cities hundreds of miles away to pick up Dafa scriptures and truth-telling amulets for local fellow practitioners. As an 80-year-old father, he is very…

I have had a strong fighting spirit since I was a child, which also led to difficulties in guarding my character during cultivation. In the process of digging deep into my own attachments, I discovered that I have a mindset of fighting with others at every turn.

The purpose of writing about my two experiences - lessons of the attachment to YouTube and short videos - is to admonish myself and remind fellow practitioners: Do not indulge in the miscellaneous content on your phone, do not obsess over videos on YouTube, make good use of your computer, remove…

It has been thirty-one years since Falun Dafa was introduced to the world. I have gone through twenty-seven years of personal cultivation, assisting the Master in rectifying the Fa, and saving sentient beings. During these twenty-seven years, my personal cultivation has also been full of ups and…

One day, a high school classmate named F, whom I had not contacted for a long time, called me and asked me where I worked. I told him and hung up. The next day, classmate F came to my clinic by appointment. F was mentally ill, his right hand kept shaking, and his right leg kept shaking while…

In the past few days, I have noticed that my daughter is no longer as obsessed with her phone as she used to be. Now, she only uses her phone for assignments or occasionally when she is tired of doing homework. Sometimes, she does not even want to use it at all.

After reading a fellow practitioner's article titled 'Neither Envy nor Praise, Detachment and Moderation,' I agree with their understanding that praising others should be done with caution. Flattery is certainly not appropriate, but even when it is genuine and heartfelt praise, it…

After reading the article “Flattery and Demonic Interference from One’s Own Mind” published by the Minghui Editorial Board, I was deeply touched. I realized that there have been similar manifestations in my own cultivation journey, as well as around me. From this, I would like to share some…

I was fortunate enough to obtain the Fa in 1997. I remember those days when I first obtained the Fa. Through studying the Fa, I learned that I could become a "Buddha." Later, in the Fa, I realized that the infinite gratitude I felt towards Master was the result of Master pulling me from…

In mid-May of this year, my husband's body suddenly lit up a red light. His left leg dragged on the ground as he walked, and he showed a lack of interest in speaking, slow movements, weakened sensory functions, insensitivity to hot and cold sensations – he would even eat very hot food without…

Master said in What is a Dafa Disciple, “Of course, be this cosmic law as it may, compassion is a trait of righteous gods. That is not to say that simply wishing to do some good counts as compassion. When someone is seized by a whim and acts on it, that doesn’t count as compassion. Rather, in that…

Master said in 2018 Fa Teaching Given in Washington, D.C., “Every Dafa disciple aspires to become a true cultivator, someone who is steadfast and solid in his cultivation as he travels the path to divinity. But for some practitioners that’s just a wish, as their minds haven’t reached that spiritual…

On July 22, 2023, the movie "Actor's Dream" premiered in Cambridge, England. A few friends and I drove for more than two hours, accompanied by the drizzle, and talked all the way from Birmingham to Cambridge.

Master said in Zhuan Falun, “Because one is lost among everyday people, one will often develop in one’s mind thoughts for fame, benefits, lust, anger, etc. Gradually, these thoughts become the powerful thought karma.”

The most difficult thing about cultivating is not being able to find where the attachment is. Sometimes you cannot find it, and sometimes you have clearly found it and deceived yourself into thinking it is not the case.

I am a rural female disciple. Before I obtained Dafa, many conflicts arose because I often handled things improperly. It happened that my ex-husband had an affair again which hit me hard. I always felt the heavy pressure. In the end, I got sick all over my body, such as nephritis, sciatica, blurred…

I seriously started practicing Dafa in 2012. The following is my experience after obtaining the Fa. After obtaining the Fa, because I had been cultivating alone at home, I was focusing on cultivating on the surface: I studied several lectures every day, did the exercises, and did things to save…

I am a Dafa disciple in the mountainous area of Beijing. I started to practice Falun Dafa in 1998. During the more than 20 years of practicing Falun Dafa, the compassionate and great Master has been caring for me every moment, purifying my body, improving my Xinxing and enlightening me. I can'…

At the beginning of the Dafa practice, there were many times that I felt Fa study was so enjoyable, like being engrossed in a fascinating novel as long as I studied Fa after I finished practice. However, if I slacked off and did not practice but studied Fa directly, Fa study became mundane to me…

The wakeup alarm in the mobile phone rang, reminding that it was time for morning exercise, but I still didn't get up, and continued to sleep soundly in my dream. Because I couldn't participate in the morning exercise, in my dream I fell from a height of 10,000 meters, and there was an…

I obtained the Fa when I was a student and started practicing Dafa barely with society’s influence. Before I practiced, I always thought that I do not have the attachment of jealousy, because I grew up in relatively good living conditions. When I was a child, my father often traveled all over the…

A few days ago, because of the hurtful words my husband said to me, I have been unwilling to forgive him in my heart. In fact, Master has repeatedly hinted at me that everything is caused by my own karma, and everything has a reason. But I am always blocked by this fake reality, unwilling to face…

Before this lunar year, I had a thought: New Year is coming! I should collect fellow practitioners’ greetings to Master and post them on Minghui website to express disciples’ respects and gratitude towards Master.
