People's Hearts and Consequences

The people know Dafa practitioners are honest.

A woman in Shenze County, Hebei Province lost a cell phone worth more than 3,000 Yuan. She went to the village radio station and asked to make an announcement. The broadcaster said, "Don't waste your time; who would give back such an expensive piece of property? Unless a Falun Gong practitioner picked it up." The woman said, "Maybe a Falun Gong practitioner happened to pick it up! Just broadcast an announcement for me, please." Soon after the announcement was made, the cell phone was returned. It was a Falun Gong practitioner who picked it up. The woman said, "I know Falun Gong practitioners are good and honest people. I must thank you for this." The practitioner said, "Master taught us to be good people. Thank our Master instead!"

A story from Mainland China: I lived in Wuchang City, Heilongjiang Province. In the fall of 1995 I obtained Dafa and my skin disease that I suffered for over 30 years disappeared. On February 10, 2003 [Chinese lunar calendar], a four-wheel vehicle ran over me and stopped on top of me. My wife and brother ran up and pushed the vehicle away. My face was swollen, my ears bleeding, and the bones in my feet were crushed. I was sent to a hospital. The doctor said I had to be hospitalized for five days and that would cost 500 Yuan each day, in addition to 180 Yuan for the cast on my feet. The man who hit me lives in Zhaojiadian in Niujianan, and he is poor. He was shocked to learn the amount of hospital expenses my injury would incur and cried. I said, "I'm a Falun Gong practitioner. I'll be fine. He couldn't afford the bill even if he sold his vehicle, so let's just go home." I insisted on going home, and I was carried back home. The driver was so relieved and moved he knelt in front of me. I didn't take a single pill after I went home, and I was able to walk about 20 days later.

Cultivation Stories

The story of an elementary school pupil in Taiwan:

I am in sixth grade at Longsheng National Elementary School in Jilong City, Taiwan. I went to the Falun Gong Association at school and the teacher gave me Zhuan Falun. I couldn't put the book down. One day I read Zhuan Falun at night until dawn. Other than teaching people to follow Truth-Compassion-Tolerance, Zhuan Falun also contains extraordinary and interesting stories, and it's the best book I've ever read. My xinxing (heart or mind nature, moral character) improved greatly after I started practicing Dafa. When my elder sister used to reproach me, before I would "fire back," but now I don't get angry at all because I want to be a good person according to Truth-Compassion-Tolerance. Sometimes my classmates vent on me, but I guard my xinxing and no longer have any conflicts. My mother works hard to operate her business, so I voluntarily take on some household chores. The five sets of Falun Gong exercises are easy to learn, and it greatly improves our health. I told my family about my experience, and my parents and uncle all want to learn. The schools in Mainland China slander Falun Gong and force young people like me to give up Dafa, while many schools in Taiwan encourage the students to learn Falun Gong. I will cherish my freedom and be more diligent in Dafa practice.
