(Clearwisdom.net) Recently, practitioners in Sydney, Australia have been sharing their understandings after reading papers from the Eighth Internet Experience Sharing Conference for Practitioners in China. Many shared in small groups, big groups, and individually, that they benefited in many ways from the experience sharing papers by practitioners in mainland China.
Cooperate with the One Body by Thinking of Others First
Ms. Bai said she was mostly impressed by how practitioners cooperate well, enabling the Fa power to manifest. “I learned from them, by cooperating during our Shen Yun promotions. Another practitioner is contacting VIPs together with me. We shared, allowing us to look inside when facing problems, unconditionally cooperating with others, and harmonizing with the whole body well, thus, the power of Dafa could manifest during our mission.”
Ms. Bai also pointed out that doing the five exercises is very important. We must wash ourselves clean first, otherwise we would be covered by karma. Now everyday when my alarm clock goes off, I will not have any notions, nor see if the weather is fine, nor think how I feel physically. I go to the group practice site immediately. The exercises rejuvenate my body and mind better than sleep can.”
We Can Reach High Realms in Dafa Cultivation
Mr. David Liang began cultivating at the end of 1998 in Sydney. He expressed a recent break through in cultivation after reading these papers. He said, “In the past people had to cleanse themselves for three days before reading Buddhist scriptures. We are learning such a high Dafa, we should be even more noble and respectful toward Dafa and fellow practitioners. Seeing practitioners in the mainland able to cultivate to such a high realm, allowed me to believe that we can reach high levels. I used to think what Master described was too far to reach. Now I see that as long as we cultivate genuinely, we can sleep as little as 2-3 hours per day without feeling tired. I have increased my sending forth of righteous thoughts recently, and I could become tranquil as soon as I sit down for meditation.”
He added, “Strong righteous thoughts are so important, when we have initiated true thoughts, we can accomplish things well. I bought a DVD player for my vehicle, and have been playing Shen Yun promotional programs in my taxi. I found 950f passengers love it, and have told me that they want to buy tickets. I first broke through my own notions, looking at things based on the Fa, hence, this righteous action is effective.”
A Miracle in the Workplace
Ms. Ayu is from Indonesia. She described how a miracle occurred in her workplace after she read some experience sharing papers. She used to be afraid of talking to her boss, but recently before going home her boss called and said he wanted to have a talk. She said, “I was a bit anxious, but I felt positive energy surrounding my workplace, and felt much more relaxed. To my surprise, my boss talked to me about his management style. He was very calm and rational, not like before when I would feel awful whenever he talked to me. I told him frankly how I used to be scared of conversing with him because he would always blame me for everything. The wall which we built between us over the past four years was dissolved after this open heart discussion. I enlightened from these mainland Chinese practitioners' papers and their honest sharing on how one can eliminate misunderstandings. We must believe Master and Dafa, and miracles will happen.”
Seize the Precious Opportunity Given by Master
Ms. Christy recalled her happiness when she first obtained the Fa. She said, “I remember I felt strongly the sacredness and profoundness of Dafa. I was very diligent, and often enlightened to Fa-principles. After reading the mainland Chinese practitioners' papers, I thought, 'How come they could reach such a high realm, and we were cultivating in the same school?' I truly enlightened that cultivation is serious. How much we plant, is how much we harvest. No matter how high disciples reach, the key to their success is based on cultivating in Dafa. We must take the Fa as teacher, always correct and base our words and actions according to the Fa, always have gratitude and reverence toward Master and Dafa!
