(Clearwisdom.net) Master has mentioned the Minghui (Clearwisdom.net) website in His lectures. However, many practitioners only download articles from Minghui; they don't seem to have thought about writing down their own experiences and submitting them. I know that some practitioners have done really well, but they have not written about their experiences. Such practitioners have different concerns. Some think they have not cultivated well; some think that submitting articles to Minghui is something beyond their capacity; and some think they do not have many things to write about. I think many of these are human notions. Minghui is the platform for all Dafa practitioners to share. It thus requires all of us to care for and maintain it. It is not very difficult to write down our experiences. It is worth the time, and there are many things one can talk about.
Whenever I have visited the Minghui website and read the experience-sharing articles, I felt as if I were attending an experience-sharing Fa conference. In those articles I can find my own shortcomings and places where I can improve. From reading the articles, I saw that overseas practitioners have sacrificed selflessly in order to stop the persecution. I also saw that some practitioners are very outstanding since they could look within even when mistreated. Some practitioners are very selfless and are always thinking about how sentient beings can be saved. From my heart, I think Master is really great since He could forge so many selfless beings.
There are two columns in Minghui that I like best: one is "Understanding with Rationality", and the other is "Special Recommendations". I find that one can improve much quicker if we can understand the Fa with rationality. I benefit a lot from reading the understandings of fellow practitioners. Isn't this like a group Fa-study and group sharing? From these articles, I can tell that these practitioners are mature. With solid cultivation, they are doing the three things steadily and are bringing blessings to the community.
In comparing myself to others', I found my own shortcomings. I was very often impatient and tended to only express my own opinions. Although I have noticed more and more shortcomings in myself, practitioners around me did not feel that way. One practitioner I often meet and share understandings with told me that I have been improving. In fact, it was not because I did something special, it is simply because I started visiting the Minghui website and learned a lot from doing so. I felt there is a big gap between my status and that of fellow practitioners and the requirements of Dafa. The most direct effect is that my family environment has improved. I have less fear and am more diligent than before.
I like to write down my understandings and share them with fellow practitioners. I know that overseas practitioners work very hard. Therefore, I always proofread my article several times before submitting it, hoping to reduce the workload for fellow practitioners. I also benefit a lot in the process of submitting articles. In the past, I was not good at writing, but I think writing articles and submitting to Minghui is easier than everyday writing. In short, I have benefited a lot.
