(Minghui.org) To mark the grand occasion of the 2019 Chinese New Year, many Falun Dafa practitioners are extending their warmest greetings to Master Li Hongzhi and wishing him a Happy New Year.

Many of these practitioners picked up the practice despite the decades-long persecution by the communist regime, from a 17-year-old teenager in Beijing to a couple in their 80s in Heilongjiang Province. They all identify with Falun Dafa's principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and are determined to temper their minds based on the principles in their daily lives.

One woman from Hanzhong City, Shaanxi Province, wrote: “I began to practice Falun Dafa in August 2018. I used to suffer from insomnia. Then I recited 'Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance is good,' and I fell asleep right away. I also stopped fighting with my husband. He was surprised to see how my temper improved in such a short period of time. Falun Dafa is truly great! I hope more people can find out how wonderful it is and enjoy happiness in their families!”
