Looking Within When Facing Issues

Ms. Liu mentioned that several indicators on her car’s dashboard were on, but she couldn’t find anything wrong with her car. Her kitchen drain was also blocked. She realized that there was something wrong with her cultivation. She carefully reviewed recent incidents and found several attachments. For example, she did not take the initiative to do projects to validate Dafa. When she looked inward she realized the real reason was that she wanted to dodge conflicts with fellow practitioners and maintain a good image. She has habitually treated people and things negatively amidst conflicts. 

Ms. Liu enlightened that nothing practitioners encounter is trivial. A practitioner should not underestimate a moment of anger towards his family or other practitioners, and should not ignore uncorrected wrongdoings. One should not make negative comments about other practitioners behind their backs. 

Passing a Family Test

Ms. He said that her husband was hospitalized and that they received a bill of over $100,000 after he was discharged. Her 80-year-old husband suggested they get a divorce so that Ms. He would not have to pay off the huge debt when he died. Through studying the Fa, Ms. He realized that practitioners should consider others first, not just their own interests.

When she told her husband about her decision not to divorce, he was very moved. Afterwards, when her husband went out for a walk or met strangers, he would tell them that Falun Dafa is good and that the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution is evil.

Introducing Falun Dafa to Colleagues

Ms. Pan works for a large Seattle company. When she found that her department had management problems, she came up with a better plan. But when she implemented the new plan, she encountered resistance from some coworkers. 

Ms. Pan kept her heart unmoved, communicated with her coworkers patiently, listened to their opinions, and then revised the plan. During this process, she established a good relationship with her coworkers and had the opportunity to tell them that she practices Falun Dafa. She also told them about the CCP’s persecution. Her department director invited her to show everyone how to do the Falun Dafa exercises during their lunch break.

Ms. Pan enlightened that it was the responsibility and mission of practitioners to clarify the truth to everyone they encounter.

The conference ended at 5:00 pm. The participants were happy to have attended and said that listening to other practitioners’ experiences benefited them a lot. They also said that they needed to improve their own cultivation and do better in the future.
