Practitioners Exchange Insights

The following is an excerpt from the article "Do Not Hold Fahui Too Casually"

Currently some areas in China have frequently held Fahuis [Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conferences]. Some practitioners were arrested, and material centers were destroyed. Fahui is a form that Master taught us in the peaceful time period before the persecution. Their purpose is to spread the Fa [law of the universe, principles] and share cultivation experiences. Fahui is sacred, we cannot casually gather some practitioners, and then call it a Fahui. In addition, the mentalities of competition and showing off might put some of our fellow practitioners in danger, and it is not being responsible to fellow practitioners, and even interferes with the whole Fa-rectification. So holding a Fahui is something that must be carefully thought through, and not pursued as any kind of formality.

The following is an excerpt from the article "Talking About the Operation of Our Material Centers"

The most important thing at our material centers is studying the Fa. No matter how busy it gets, we use at least half of our time to study the Fa. By guaranteeing time for Fa-study as a rule of thumb, we have improved the workflow. We break down some of the simple jobs that do not require machines and leave them up to the practitioners who pass out the materials. This way we fully utilize the power of every Dafa disciple. The materials centers should be as small as possible. Because we ensure time spent in solid Fa-study, our material center operates smoothly, even despite the severe persecution in China.

Truth and People's Hearts

The following is an excerpt from the article "Clarifying the Truth" by Writing from My Heart

I went to my grandmother's house in May of 2002 to clarify the truth. She is over 70 years old, and is almost deaf. I wrote on a piece of paper, "Most of our family members are practicing Falun Gong." She was shocked to see this, and shook her hands violently, expressing her disapproval of our practicing. I added "is good" after "Falun Gong," and wrote to her, "TV programs have been cheating people," plus I added "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance" under "Falun Gong," and "Please remember" in front of "Falun Gong is good." She nodded her head at me in approval.

The following is an excerpt from the article "Treasuring Predestined Relationships Manifests the Dignity of Dafa Disciples"

During the last half year of my mother's life, while she was sick with severe intestinal cancer, I passed out a lot truth-clarification materials to far away streets, villages, and markets while taking care of her. The neighbors of my mother all know I practice Falun Gong, and liked Dafa upon hearing me clarify the truth. My mother has eight siblings, several tens of children and grandchildren. Every time when we gather together, they love to hear me tell them about Falun Dafa. All of the conduct they see me display moves them deeply. Who ever dares to say Dafa is not good, they will tell him how wonderful Dafa is.

News from China

The following is an excerpt from the article "Greetings from a Retired Police Officer"

During this season of the new spring, I sincerely wish you and your family happiness! The duty bestowed on our police is safeguarding the good people, and punishing the bad. But if we are deceived and do not know the good from the bad, and treat good people as bad, then that would be committing a heavenly crime. The persecution against Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance is surely the evil suppressing the righteous. Safeguarding Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance is safeguarding the whole human race! I hope you will treat Falun Gong practitioners kindly, it will bring to your life endless happiness and benefit your whole family forever.

The following is an excerpt from "Open Letter to the Nanyang City Police Station and the Wancheng District Court of Henan Province"

You are law enforcers, but you never obey the law when dealing with Falun Gong practitioners. Good will be rewarded with good, and evil will meet with retribution. All those who have persecuted Falun Dafa and Falun Dafa practitioners will meet with their deserved retribution. Either choose to do things that help the evil, or quell the evil and embrace the good? These are all your own choices. I sincerely hope that you can come back from your strayed path, so that you may have a wonderful future.
