(Minghui.org) Falun Dafa practitioners from the Midwest US have sent in Chinese New Year Greetings to Master Li, thanking Master for teaching Dafa to the world. Practitioners vowed to cultivate themselves more diligently in the new year and to better fulfill their historic missions.

Practitioners from a Fa-study group of older practitioners in Ohio wrote in their greeting:

“In this troubled world, it is you who have given us a pure land for cultivation. How fortunate we are to have become your disciples. Through lifetime after lifetime of reincarnation, and now amid the vast transformations of the cosmos, we follow Master in rectifying the Fa and composing a new chapter. Looking back on the path we have walked and all that we have experienced, every step reflects your immense compassion and painstaking salvation. The boundless grace of the Buddha and the unforgettable benevolence of Master are beyond words.

“Cultivation is like rowing a boat upstream—if one does not advance, one retreats. Only by remaining true to our original aspiration and diligently engaging in genuine cultivation, can we hope to bring a smile to Master’s face.”

Other greetings come from the following areas:

Chicago, Illinois; Ohio; Minnesota; Missouri; Nebraska; Northern Michigan; Michigan; Kentucky; Kansas; Springfield, Missouri; and Iowa.
