Since the Spring Festival of 2003, Dafa practitioners in our local area have set up many Fa-study groups. Some small groups have only three or four practitioners, whereas the big groups have more than ten people. In some groups, the same practitioner hosts the meeting at his or her home all the time; in other groups, practitioners take turns hosting the meeting at their homes. The time for studying the Fa is very flexible as well. Some groups study the Fa in the afternoon, while others in the evening. Some groups study the Fa and practice the exercises together; some groups have practitioners study the Fa in a group, but practice the exercises individually at home. We feel as if we have come back to the time before 20th July, 1999. Everybody hurries to the study group and stops doing whatever they are doing when the study time approaches. Many practitioners, who had given up or those who didn't keep up with the Fa rectification process, are back to the groups and improving in this environment.
We encourage each other and persist in learning together, practicing and sending forth righteous thoughts. Whenever there is a problem, we share ideas with each other and then resolve the issues together. This way we form a harmonious environment.
Just like Master said, "in clarifying the truth, don't
wait, don't rely on others, and don't just hope for changes in external
factors." ("To All Students at the Nordic Fa Conference,"
Essentials for Further Advancement II) A good environment depends on ourselves.
We are in charge, and all beings are waiting for us.
