Falun Dafa practitioners in Taitung send New Year greetings to Master Li on January 5, 2025.
Practitioners gathered at Peinan Culture Park to do the Falun Dafa exercises.
Practitioners from the Zhiben practice site in Taitung wish Master Li a happy New Year.
Falun Dafa was introduced to Taiwan in 1995. Due to its significant health benefits and ability to improve people’s moral character, word spread from person to person and Falun Dafa soon began being practiced in all parts of Taiwan. In Taitung, in the southeast part of Taiwan, people of different ages and from different walks of life began practicing Falun Dafa. At the start of the new year, practitioners came together to do the exercises and share how they benefited from practicing Falun Dafa. They thanked Master Li for his guidance and said they hoped to be more diligent in practicing cultivation in the new year.
Mr. Zhang, who organized the activity, said, “At the start of the new year, practitioners in Taitung come together to send new year greetings to Master. We hope to continue to working together in the new year, do better in our personal cultivation, have righteous thoughts when problems arise and do more to save people.”
Retired Teacher Thanks Master
Jun Yi, a retired middle school teacher who has practiced Falun Dafa for more than two decades, said although her cultivation journey has been uneventful, “I clearly felt that Master was looking after me all the time.”
Retired teacher Jun Yi thanks Master for guiding her.
Before she began practicing Falun Dafa, Jun Yi lacked confidence and got upset easily. She said she changed after she began practicing. “Master gave me a lot of guidance and the opportunity to use my abilities,” she explained. Ms. Jun realized her abilities came from Dafa and her character changed for the better. “I understood that conflicts and resentment are manifestations of karma,” she said. “As long as I forbear and let it go, everything will become peaceful.”
Ms. Jun added, “I thank Master for letting me take part in truth-clarification projects and arranging for practitioners to help me. I cherish everything and the opportunity to practice cultivation.”
She also talked about how she felt that Master would give her hints about her cultivation practice, sometimes through the words of other people. “Because I had slacked off in cultivation recently—I began watching videos and following the news, a family member who is also a practitioner reminded me from time to time. Thank you, Master for the reminder, saving me from getting lost in this chaotic world once again. If I did not cultivate well, how many regrets I would have!”
Ms. Jun concluded, “Thank you, Master! Thank you, Dafa! My wandering heart found a safe haven and I will be diligent in cultivation and do what a Dafa disciple should do.”
I Feel Fortunate to Practice Dafa
“I’m in a good mood every day ever since I began practicing Dafa,” said Jin Xiu who has practiced for more than two decades. She exclaimed, “I feel so fortunate to practice Dafa!”
Jin Xiu and her husband thank Master for the benefits that practicing Dafa brought their whole family.
Jin Xiu is a experienced hair stylist. Although she is currently semi retired, new and old customers continue to come to her business regularly because they trust her skills. She also operates a B&B, and meets tourists from all over the world. Ms. Xiu takes the opportunity to tell them about Falun Dafa and Shen Yun Performing Arts. Many people are happy to receive the information.
She said that besides treating customers and friends well, based on Dafa’s principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance, she also regards home as a cultivation environment. In the past, she and her husband, who also practices Dafa, had different opinions about money and had conflicts because of this. After she began practicing cultivation, she gradually learned to let go of her attachment to loss and gain. She is more understanding towards her family and the relationship with her husband is more harmonious.
Jin Xiu said, “Thank you, Master and Dafa for guiding us. It’s indeed a great blessing to practice cultivation!”
