With the rapid progress of Fa-rectification, practitioners in Germany feel it is very important to hold group Fa-study and share cultivation experiences among practitioners. It undoubtedly plays an important role in fostering the practitioners to make progress as a whole. In early August, Bavaria Falun Dafa practitioners held a two-day group Fa-study and experience sharing as well as spreading Falun Dafa to local people.

Attending the gathering were veteran practitioners, new practitioners, those who just took up the practice and those who wanted to join. Though we were at different levels in cultivation and there were big differences between us, we shared a common wish, that is, that through studying the Fa and sharing experiences, we could improve ourselves, and quicken our steps in cultivation. We spent most of the time reading together; after that, we spent some time discussing things we did not understand in the Fa, and problems we met with in the course of our cultivation and while doing Fa-rectification work.

The hot topic we discussed was one thing we should do well after Jiang [Zemin] visited Germany --- Clarifying the truth. When Jiang visited Germany, our weak points were exposed. We did not clarify the truth to German police and government departments. As a result, the evil took advantage of our omissions. After Jiang left, we didn't make up for our omissions in time, and the evil took advantage of our loophole again, resulting in the Iceland Incident. Through sharing experiences, the practitioners realized how we could make the truth known to people from all walks of life and governments of different levels, and provide them with a wonderful future. This is our German practitioners' responsibility and mercy. From the perspective of ordinary human society, our behavior is fair and reasonable, as it is good for morality in society to promote righteousness. From the perspective of cultivation, we make use of the ways that ordinary people adopt, thoroughly breaking through the arrangements of the old forces and offering salvation to sentient beings.

Like any other get-together, we met unexpected Xinxing [moral and heart nature] tests. For example, we were not considerate of new practitioners. However, at the end of our gathering, everyone felt that we obtained many benefits from this intensive group Fa-study and sincere experience sharing, and we all thought that such a group Fa-study was really conducive to our cultivation.

At this gathering, we also took the opportunity of an annual festival held in the local community to set up a Falun Gong Consultation Center. Many tourists, and people who came out to enjoy the festival activities accepted our Dafa truth-clarifying materials. Children followed our practitioners to do the exercises. All people passing by were deeply impressed by the scene of our peaceful and serene exercises along the river.
