Recently, every time I practiced the second set of exercises, I felt fearful. Therefore, I usually practiced the fifth exercise first, and then the second exercise. But I yawned and burst into tears during the second exercise. Even though I managed to finish the exercise, I thought my body was…
Everything has its root, and this root is from another dimension, so when we face things that happen around us, we must understand that there is a root, because the space of the universe is connected, and the surface of human level is just a reflection in the human world, and what really works is…
One day, mom took her child, a little Dafa disciple, for a ride on her electric bike. The road was very wide. Mom checked both left and right, and saw that no cars were coming, so she crossed the road. The little disciple said, "Mom, you just had points deducted.”
When reading “Journey to the West” when young, I often felt Monk Sha was treated unfairly. Out of the main characters, the wrong committed by Monk Sha seemed to be the smallest, but the punishment he was given was quite severe. Monk Sha only shattered the Jade Emperor’s glass cup, but he was beaten…
In the early years just after I started practicing Falun Dafa, I felt it was easy to get rid of the attachment to money. It was not as strenuous as now. I used to not even care if I lost something, it seemed that I could let go of anything. Sometimes when our truth-clarification materials…
I used to love playing computer games. I irrationally stayed up late and spent lots of money on games. I did not practice the exercises nor study the Fa, but played online games everyday. I was so obsessed with games. Master is merciful, and arranged for my mobile phone screen to break in order to…
A few days ago, in a group Fa study, when I recited Master’s Fa in Zhuan Falun, “you must abandon your ill thoughts and clean out your filthy things”, as soon as I realized that the character “zang” (“filthy”, in English) was omitted, I memorised this part of Fa teaching one more time.

When I achieve something in my cultivation, I normally think it is due to Master's help, not my own ability. However, if I'm not vigilant enough with my thoughts, I will start to inadvertently validate myself. It is especially easy to happen in some minor matters.
From Minghui's report, the evil's persecution of Dafa disciples is shocking to this day. Illegal kidnappings, illegal detentions, illegal sentences, and persecution to death have occurred continually. Now, I would like to share what I have understood from the perspective of anti…
I had a dream recently in which I was standing in a vegetable garden. Suddenly, a fairy appeared before me. My intuition told me: This is the lust demon. I need to beat it to death! So, I raised my arms above my head, hands in fists, as though I were wielding a tool to toss at it. In actuality, I…
In Dafa cultivation, you must always maintain righteous thoughts, do the three things well, and remove all kinds of human attachments. Recently, I discovered that I still have the following human attachments:
I am an office worker, and I am very busy. I leave home early every morning and return home late. I basically use the evening time to study the Fa and do the exercises. After giving birth to my baby four years ago, time has been even tighter. All of my time seems to be occupied by ordinary things,…
The question of whether to get vaccinated or not had been discussed for a while. In addition, this issue has been singled out in Master’s newly released scripture. From a perspective of personal cultivation, not being vaccinated is a manifestation of our faith in Master and Dafa. From a perspective…
I obtained the Fa in mainland China in 1997. I came overseas three years ago, so I am a veteran practitioner. However I have practiced Dafa on and off over the past years. Not until recently did I discover that I was unable to position Master and Dafa properly, which made me feel very ashamed. This…
Shen Yun, a project of saving sentient beings, is directly guided by Master. It helps create opportunities for disciples to practice cultivation. Every time I participated in Shen Yun promotion, I could find out my flaws through Master’s hint. If we treasure this opportunity to work hard on our…
The maturity of cultivation does not lie in the length of the cultivation, but more in the transformation of the basic point of cultivation. This transformation takes long, so some people can cultivate themselves, but others may not have this capability. My understanding of "cultivation"…
Regardless of the urgency of time, I have slacked off in my cultivation recently. It was hard for me to cultivate Dafa diligently. Fortunately, I was able to find out a deep-rooted human thought by looking inward carefully: I’d been imprisoned for many years, which resulted in a great loss of…
In my recent cultivation practice, I can look inward in most cases but not thoroughly. Only when we find out the obstacles in looking inward, can we have breakthroughs in cultivation practice.
When I was communicating with fellow practitioners recently, I found that many had great deficiencies studying the Fa. Some issues that are written in black and white in Dafa books, but practitioners cannot figure them out, and then consult others. Moreover, they told me that they have read the…
I have cultivated Dafa for more than twenty years. Normally I study the Fa in the morning, clarify the truth in the afternoon and give out truth leaflets in the evening. In addition, I do the exercises and send forth righteous thoughts. Apart from this, I squeeze my time to help my daughter-in-law…
Recently, I have encountered fellow practitioners who have family tribulations all the year round. They think this state is inevitable and have not thought about how to break through. Based on my current knowledge, let us talk about how to treat long-term family tribulations when standing on the…
Yesterday after I finished my lunch, I offered incense to Master. I said, “Master, I need to go outside and save people. Please bless me.” Then it took me more than an hour to distribute about thirty truth-clarification leaflets.
In the process of cultivation, everyone has attachments that are difficult to get rid of. They feel that their attachments have gone one layer after another. Some attachments keep growing because of years of ignorance. The attachments even form a layer of body, preventing us from advancing…
When communicating with fellow practitioners, I am always moved by their diligence. For instance, it is most difficult for me to do exercises in very early morning. Therefore, I admire practitioners who can persist with this task. Once, I asked an old fellow practitioner, "Can you get up in…
In my recent cultivation, I realized that: the reason why some attachments cannot be completely eliminated is that we have not really distinguished that they are not truly ourselves. Since we cannot distinguish them completely, our attachments cannot be eradicated, and we will be trapped for a long…
I didn’t have an easy time dealing with sick karma. I had hesitations and confusions, but did not get discouraged. I continued to find attachments and give them up, in the end I deeply realized Master’s Teaching the Fa at the 2002 Fa Conference in Philadelphia, U.S.A., “true improvements come from…
In recent tests, I’ve realized that the strong likes of discussing right and wrong has blocked my way back to Heaven, which looks like a high wall. Only by changing the concept of ordinary people can I break through the barriers.
Since the U.S election last year, it has been imperative that our Dafa practitioners help sentient beings see through the nature of CCP and make right choices. As a local fellow practitioner agreed with me, we carried two children of our own to give out ‘The Heaven Disintegrates CCP’ leaflets door…
Master said in Towards Consummation, “Studying the Fa with attachments is not true cultivation. Yet during the course of cultivation a person may gradually become aware of his fundamental attachments, rid himself of them, and thus meet the standard for a cultivator.”
A fellow practitioner is in her 70s living with her husband I often go to their home to deliver “Minghui Weekly”. Sometimes when I found that they were watching TV programs from the mainland, I suggested that they install NTDTV. When I saw that they had some concerns, I didn’t say more. Sometimes…
As Dafa practitioners, respecting Master and the Fa is a natural matter, and there is no objection to this. The problem is that in some parts of the mainland, some practitioners invented many things that are not in the Fa, and repeatedly instilled them among practitioners.
We all know that group practice and experience sharing are a form left by Master that can effectively promote our cultivation. However, in this process, there are some problems that are common like leaving soon after the study with no serious sharing. Over time, it becomes only Fa study and very…
I am a veteran disciple who was fortunate enough to obtain the Fa in September 1996. I have been practicing for more than 20 years. Despite reading the Fa, practicing the exercises, validating the Fa, saving sentient beings, and sending forth righteous thoughts, I still encountered many…
Master taught us in Zhuan Falun, “Another person told me that he doesn’t have to practice hard like others do, at dawn or late into the night, since all he has to do is recline on the couch when he gets home and go out of his body to practice, and he can just watch himself practicing as he lies…
I am a veteran disciple who obtained the Fa before July 20, 1999. Although I have made rapid progress in cultivation through various tests and tribulations in the past two years, it has been very difficult to make a breakthrough in Fa study. Recently, I finally made a breakthrough under Master’s…
There is a story recorded in “The Classical Stories of Buddhism”: a person went to see the Buddha after he died, and he said to the Buddha while weeping, “Buddha, why are you so cruel? You made me so busy every day, but I got nothing; at night my soul is not even here, trembling, there isn’t day I…
In Dafa cultivation, in addition to maintaining righteous thoughts and rationality at all times, I found that the following human attachments are the most harmful. They must eventually be removed. Otherwise they will attract interference and evil persecution.
Master said in Zhuan Falun, "Our school of practice teaches you to attain gong through conflicts." The Fa has infinite connotations, and I realized that this is the mechanism that Master gave us. Master said in Zhuan Falun, "Thus, when you encounter a conflict, I would say that it is…
Master said in Zhuan Falun, "The development of humankind can be controlled only by higher lives at a very lofty level, and it progresses according to the law of development." From the principles taught by Master, I understand that no matter how complicated, weird, and confusing the…
As we know, Tyrant Zhou of Shang in The Appointing of the Gods was a tyrant. Honorable Divine of the Origin sent Jiang Ziya to assist the King Wu of Zhou. Many cultivators also descended the mountain to rescue people and fulfil their destinies by displaying their supernatural powers. Eventually,…
Seeing the article We Must Know and Be Clearheaded about Our Principles and Fundamentals published by Minghui's editorial department, I thought of the words in Guiding the Voyage: Teaching the Fa at the Western U.S. Fa Conference, " real Buddhas are guardians of the cosmos and are…
In this U.S. election, my heart fluctuated up and down, and my cultivation status also deteriorated rapidly. This made me realize that if I don't correct myself from the Fa, I will be exploited by evil. At the same time, it will also hinder the trend of Fa-rectification.
"How the Specter of Communism Is Ruling Our World" is a series of articles published by the editorial office of the Nine Commentaries. It is a deep analysis of modern human society. Not only to the ordinary people, it’s also a warning for Dafa practitioners and worth thinking about.
In recent cultivation I have realized that if one does not completely transform one’s human thinking, notions and habits into those of Gods, one cannot completely transform from human to God. Attachments will also constantly regenerate under the influence of human notions, one after another. After…
After reading Master’s new scripture "Stay Rational", I recalled what one fellow practitioner told me a few days ago: we should disintegrate all of the evil living beings and factors behind the old forces that have used the Wuhan virus to destroy sentient beings, and we should tell more…
Evil communist spirits have wrecked the world for nearly a century. Mankind’s indulgence attracted this "evil spirit." After mankind lost its righteous faith, corrupted lives of the universe infiltrated the human mind and spirit.
