Ms. Zhang told the reporter that she felt fortunate to become a Falun Dafa practitioner. She expressed her thanks to Master Li Hongzhi for bringing the humankind the wonderfulness of Falun Dafa. She said, “Dafa is pure and righteous, can truly bring goodness to people, and help one find the right direction. Morality in modern society slides down, all kinds of enticement, pursuit for money, property and positions, all make people live in pain. After practicing Falun Gong, I take things lightly. I no longer feel lonely and confused, but enjoy a rich, full and meaningful life.”
Ms. Wu began looking for Falun Dafa after seeing Shen Yun performance in Australia in 2008. She said, “I felt great energy while watching the performance. After returning home, I searched the website for Falun Dafa books. It took me two weeks to finish reading all published books. My mind became as simple and pure as when I was young. I had been looking for before, but couldn't get anwers. I read some books on religions, but couldn't understand its meaning, but I got the answers in Falun Dafa. I can see things in a broader perspective.”
Ms. Tang began practicing Falun Gong in 2001. She talked about the benefits she'd enjoyed in ten years of cultivation practice. She said, “I felt uncomfortable all over before practicing Falun Gong. I suffered from bone spur in my cervical vertebra, and pain in my shoulder blade. I saw a specialist in the hospital for eleven years, but couldn't find a cure, however, my neck pain disappeared only two weeks following my practice of Falun Gong.” Ms. Tang said that she has remained steadfast in her practice despite many things she has experienced over the past ten years. When the staged self-immolation incident at Tiananmen Square took place, many people were deceived by the hoax orchestrated by the Chinese Communist Party, but Ms. Tang was not affected. She said, “I was asked if I still dared to practice, but I was not shaken. I have persisted to this day. I'm very grateful to Master !”
