Based on my experience, I thought it would be hard to clarify the truth to him and I would normally have just passed him by. But this day, I thought that if I didn't try to explain the facts about Falun Gong to him, he may not have another opportunity. So I went to his cart to look at the plumbs and started talking with him.

Human society really is a big dye vat. If I slack off and become less strict with myself, I will get lost on my cultivation way. To constantly maintain a clear mind, I must firmly listen to Master and study the Fa more frequently, and with attentiveness.

Studying the Fa diligently and cultivating well over the past few years brought home the importance of group study. Through Fa study our moral and ethical behaviour steadily improved. We became more and more diligent and we were able to do the three things in a down-to-earth manner.

I was thankful that my work organization rarely participated in the persecution of Falun Gong during all these years, but if I should comply with the demand to guarantee in writing not to practice Falun Gong, I would be giving my consent to the persecution. I urged them not to participate in the persecution of Falun Gong and told them that one day they will understand.

conclude. A fellow practitioner had a dream and told me that in this dream he saw me holding my arms together, squatting on the ground and shouting loudly, "I must hold on to the end!" I looked like I having a very hard time in his dream. The practitioner asked me, "Are you attached to the time when the conclusion will come?" I looked carefully at my mindset and saw that because my family members and I had suffered from the persecution, I no longer wanted to suffer and looked forward to the end. I placed that feeling before offering salvation to all sentient beings. It was my selfishness at work. I only thought about freeing myself from suffering, and I forgot that my mission in coming to this world was to save all beings.

Eventually I discarded a significant portion of this attachment and I knew that I should treasure every minute to do the three things ( study the Fa [the teachings of Falun Dafa], send forth righteous thoughts and clarify the truth about Falun Dafa and about the persecution to the world's people) well, but I was anxious before the Olympic Games. I was convinced that my attachment to time had been dealt with, and the anxiety arose because I wanted to give people a warning. I thought of the many Chinese people that the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) had brainwashed and how they had become atheists, and I thought that a manifestation of extraordinary power would help awaken them. I considered my thought to be a righteous one at the time.

What I had expected did not happen, and I was somewhat disappointed. Of course the result would not depend on my individual state, but rather on the situation of the practitioners as a whole body. Looking inward, I found that my thought was not very righteous. I was thinking like an ordinary person, as I paid a lot of attention to prophecies. It was actually a manifestation of my mindset of looking for external things, depending on others, and laziness.

In my efforts to clarify the truth, I counted on prophecies to get the points across and often used them as a jolt to people's thinking. In addition, I often thought that if a significant event happened, I could use it to convince people and my efforts would be a lot easier, "Look, wasn't what I told you true? Hurry up and withdraw from the CCP and its affiliated organizations!"

. We must really take our jobs seriously, even if it's just short-term or temporary work. We are Dafa disciples, and we represent the image of Dafa to some extent, and people will understand Dafa through our words and actions. This has a lot to do with the issue of whether they will be saved.

Then it dawned on her that wearing a Dafa T-shirt actually serves to introduce the facts, and it provides a great way to start a conversation. Although she was trying to collect signatures to support NTDTV, many people would learn about the persecution of Falun Gong in the process. She put the Dafa T-shirt back on and strengthened her righteous thoughts. Over time, many people took flyers from her, listened to her explain matters and offered their signatures

I did not recognize my extreme views for a long time and thus couldn't calm down when meditating. I was puzzled how come I had given up everything and was such a diligent practitioner for so long and yet I had so many distracting thoughts when I meditated. Not until a few days ago did I realize that I was going to the extreme.

We should also be careful how we conduct ourselves in front of children. If I do something wrong, I apologize to him. I allow him to remind me of any mistakes I make and thank him for it. In dealing with other people in front children, we must make sure that we behave like practitioners

It's not just my family. Several other practitioners are being brutally persecuted in my county. Ms. Liu Dongxue and Ms. Wang Jinling died because of the constant harassment. Several practitioners were illegally sentenced to forced labor or prison. Some had to wander about to avoid further persecution. They all used to have a very good family lives.

After exchanging views with fellow practitioners, we realized that many practitioners think that as long as they study the Fa, send forth righteous thoughts, and clarify the truth, they will definitely achieve consummation. Thus, many practitioners only do the three things required of them and neglect to cultivate themselves.

If your business is doing so well to the point that you don't have time for Fa-study and exercises, think about it: Isn't this another type of old force persecution? But this type of persecution is more discreet and hard to detect. Your attachment to financial gain is made ever larger, interfering with your cultivation.

When encountering tribulations or ordeals in life, whether they are in the area of our personal cultivation or during clarifying the truth of Dafa to people, we should face them calmly as a practitioner, treating it as a good opportunity and understanding that it is actually arranged by Teacher for the purpose of raising our levels

The fellow practitioner in prison asked about two practitioners who had been detained a year earlier, and asked if one of them was still suffering abuse from her husband. His family members told him about the situation. He thought for a while and said, "I know now. If you are truly doing very well, her husband would have stopped treating her that way."

Non-cultivators live in sadness and loss by thinking that the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. For cultivators, cherishing what you have right now and focusing on diligent cultivation is what's really important.

The frenzied conduct of communist accomplices in Flushing help to show that the CCP regime is at the end of its rope. The regime openly ignores the rule of law in other countries, exporting its terror, bullying and violence wherever they can.

A Qin said, "We are cultivators on the path to godhood. Every Falun Gong practitioner has very strong divine powers given by Teacher. As long as your thoughts are righteous, you will be able to use your divine powers at will. If you study the Fa diligently, you will know how to use them."

Many Dafa practitioners in mainland China read the articles on the NTDTV website about collecting funds and purchasing a satellite, and they want to help collect money and to contribute themselves. So they tried to get information on how to transfer such money to NTDTV. But NTDTV and our other media target non-practitioners.

"All sentient beings are admiring us since we can participate in Dafa projects. Why would I have negative thoughts when feeling tired? Now, my mindset has changed and I truly understand taking hardship as joy. I will cherish even more what we have today, and really do well with Dafa projects."

My emotional involvement with my son and thoughts about the benefits the games would have for him had disturbed my mindset. These games are designed to make people addicted to them, thus trapping one into the games, and dragging you down. The games are addictive, and for a cultivator, can destroy one's will to diligently cultivate.

It is really not difficult at all to set up a family-based truth-clarification materials centre. This is, after all, not something that everyday people do as a job. I hope that we can all study the Fa more and strengthen our righteous thoughts, so we have materials centres everywhere.

I told her how compassionate Master is and that because she recited "Falun Dafa is good" even during her sleep, it was from her heart, so Master purified her body. I told her to remember Master's grace, remember the line diligently and recite it often, and she would receive blessings.

Sometimes we think that since the persecution has lasted nine years, we should already have reached Consummation. We are hoping that it will all be over with quickly and all our troubles will end, and I felt I indeed cherished myself and this rare chance. However, Master looks at this situation from the perspective of the highest cosmos.

What is “viewing things with righteous thoughts”? What is “viewing things with human notions” then? What are exactly a cultivator’s righteous thoughts? I am always thinking about those questions. I think every Dafa disciple should think about these questions carefully as well, because they are directly related to the way we deal with things which we may encounter during the Fa rectification period.

All the so-called karma must yield to saving sentient beings; even if it was test of xinxing (character), I wanted to pass it quickly, instead of wasting time in tribulations. I then realized that my issue with sleep was also old force interference and must be negated completely. Once I had that thought, the sleepiness that had troubled me for a long time and that I had failed to get rid of disappeared immediately.

I asked her: “Did you become a Christian first or become a member of the Communist youth league and young pioneers first? If you joined the Communist youth league and young pioneers first and became a Christian later, how could Jesus look after you? The Chinese Communist Party doesn’t believe in God. It is atheist...."

"You probably don't know much about Falun Gong. Falun Gong is not as you have heard from the newspapers. It is a very good and righteous way. It teaches people to be good, and then to be even better. Aren't Truthfulness- Compassion-Forbearance good? They are definitely good.

Just like the scorching suns in the piece “Lady of the moon” from the Divine Performing Arts show, that need to be struck down to save the villagers, I need to strike down my attachments in order to better help Master save sentient beings, and use every opportunity to clarify the truth.

The repeated lessons and suffering should make it possible for us to become more mature. If we can stick to saving the sentient beings, ignore everything else no matter what, and do a good job on the three things, then everything will proceed towards Consummation.

Some practitioners, when confronted by these people who went to their homes to harass them, became very angry, put on a long face, and spoke rudely. Later, they felt that they had not behaved properly, and after sharing with other practitioners they also realized that they had not shown any kindness or compassion

I started to tell them about the last time I met him and we had a very large conflict which confused me more than anything. As I was doing this I was suddenly hit with a strong emotion which left me unable to talk. There was a silence, they were all looking at me. The Russian practitioner said to “ELIMINATE IT!”, so I did and it disappeared.

Since I realized the importance of clarifying the truth, I have been looking for ways to do better. I have tried clarifying the truth by chatting with people in China in Internet chat rooms, calling people in China and travelling to Hong Kong's tourist sites. With Teacher's help, I always meet practitioners to teach me or help me get started, or opportunities to clarify the truth present themselves to me.

Looking back on this cultivation experience, the coordination of the European team and righteous thoughts of Dafa disciples turned the impossible into possible. Those practitioners who had never been hosts before matured within a month under the righteous thoughts of the one body. It was incredible that they could all go on air presentably.

I think that we should not have any attachment to things that happen in society. We should just follow Teacher's requirements, do the three things well, study the Fa and cultivate, send righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil, and clarify the truth to save all beings. We should behave without selfishness or qing.

I have heard many times from friends, sponsors and professional advisers saying, “I received your flyers, your team effort is really impressive!” A marketer from the venue told me after her holiday: “Guess what? I received your flyer when transferring between flights in Japan… and it’s in Japanese. I already put it on the front of my desk as a souvenir.”

Many things have happened recently, and it is easy for our hearts to be stirred. My fellow practitioners, what I want to tell everyone is that our hearts should remain unmoved under all circumstances. Once our hearts are stirred, we will drop to the same level as everyday people.

Many practitioners in Cambridge went to America to attend the NY Fa-conference, and with only a few practitioners left, some practitioners were worried. I said: “As long as our thoughts are righteous, the evil will be afraid of us.” We were sending forth righteous thoughts and telling the facts. As a result, the Chinese students did not make trouble; some of them accepted our truth materials, even quit from the CCP and its related organisations on the spot. A practitioner said: “ I feel today’s field is very righteous”. This is exactly the case as Master said that ,“If our thoughts are righteous, the evil will collapse”.

Thinking about forbearance, I thought about how I don't have patience with fellow practitioners. They are still cultivating but I wasn't able to tolerate them. Then I went to group study yesterday and discovered what I am lacking in my cultivation. In a very righteous field, if one can immerse oneself in the Fa and start to share experiences, then partitions and the inability to harmonize will be corrected.

The current Eutelsat incident makes me realise that in China, a lot of ordinary people have gradually changed after watching NTDTV. So when we work for NTDTV, or for other media, we are not for entertaining ordinary people. It's a requirement for us to cultivate ourselves well while doing media work, we need to keep ourselves pure, only then can we produce programmes that are more effective in saving people.

Because of my attitude that work wasn't that important, I never took on too much responsibility. But in the past couple of years my situation changed so that gradually I was given more and more responsibility. I realised that this was so that I could upgrade myself in line with the responsibilities Dafa disciples have in the Fa-rectification period.

How have those sluggish students such as I hindered the progress of the Fa-rectification in this world? It is because we have not cultivated well and are falling far below the standard for the divine beings in the new universe. If the Fa-rectification should arrive in the human realm right now, would we be able to reach Consummation?

I realized that when to complete the Fa-rectification is under Master's control. I believe that Master is waiting for these pre-destined beings to be saved. Although we Dafa disciples are working hard to clarify the truth and offer sentient beings salvation, our effort falls far short of Master's requirements.

My personal experience has shown me that when I do all three things well, truth-clarification work goes very smoothly. If I don't have strong enough righteous thoughts, set my priorities straight, or fail to look within and remove my attachments, the evil takes advantage of my loopholes and affects my saving sentient beings. I currently hope that practitioners don't stop their efforts when encountering difficulties.

The director also said something to slander Falun Dafa. At this time, a Dafa practitioner in this factory immediately stood up and said, "You should not slander Falun Dafa and my Master!" Immediately following him a non-practitioner employee also stood up without hesitation and said loudly, "Falun Dafa is good!" At this critical moment, this person chose to stand on the side of justice. The director was shocked and quickly changed the subject.

I also realized that with the exception of studying the Fa together and doing the exercises, I was not treating my husband as a fellow practitioner. Cultivation penetrates everything in our daily lives. The predestined relationship between husband and wife is only formed from karmic retribution lifetime after lifetime.

I was a martial at the side of the parade and saw that when the people saw the banners and drummers at the front of the parade many faces in the busy Princess Street where smiling and gazing then as the banners and girls with plaques passed the smiles dropped to deep sorrow. On seeing this I was moved to tears myself. I quickly moved towards the front of the parade again as where the smiling faces were to help dispel my tears.

Freedom of belief is a universally accepted right. While the world focused on the Beijing Olympics and the outstanding athletic feats performed there, the Communist Party unscrupulously violated human rights in a faraway city, showing again that its pre-Olympic promises to uphold freedom of belief were nothing but bold-face lies.

For our entire group as one-body, we have been watched to see if our hearts have been moved or if we still do the three things well. If we do not use our human mentalities, but instead use righteous thoughts all the time--use our righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil forces and the persecution with no fear--the wicked forces will be depleted and will hurt nobody.

In other words, it is not up to me to use Zhen Shan Ren to discern if they are good or bad people. I should just unconditionally want to save them, no matter how they treat me, and then Zhen Shan Ren will discern their position.
