33. Our Class Is Now Well Behaved

  By a young practitioner in Taiwan  

  I am a sixth-grade student attending elementary school. Shortly after school began this semester, my teacher asked us to read a book called Zhuan Falun. She also taught the students in my class how to do the Falun Gong exercises.  

  I have found that reading this book has been very good for me. Before I read Zhuan Falun, I would easily lose my temper, but now I have learned to control it better. Sometimes I would also fight with my younger brother, but now I never fight with him, as my temperament has also improved. Before the students started to practice Falun Gong, we were very noisy and would fight with each other during our break time. Since we started to practice Falun Gong, we behave very well.  

  Before, when the boys in my class decided they disliked a certain girl, I followed them and stopped talking to her. After reading Zhuan Falun, I went to her and apologized, which made her very happy. When the boys say bad words to her, she wants to retaliate and return the abuse, but I convince her not to do so. Through this, we've become good friends.   

  A while ago, I read Zhuan Falun twice, but I still didn't understand what genuine cultivation practice was. Now, I have finally realized that the principles stated in Zhuan Falun need to be applied in our daily lives.   

  I will spend my summer holiday time diligently reading Zhuan Falun and practicing the exercises. I will take care of my younger brother and I will never fight with him. I will never say bad words to other students and moreover I will change my bullying character and get along with my classmates.   

  Certainly, I must thank the author of Zhuan Falun, our great, merciful Master.
