(Minghui.org) Leading up to World Falun Dafa Day, practitioners both inside and outside of China submitted their sincere greetings to the Minghui website to celebrate this tradition and wish Mr. Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Dafa, a Happy Birthday!

Below are selected greetings from 30 provinces and province-level cities in China. Practitioners from a study group in Tangshan City, Hebei Province, said they cherish the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and follow them in their daily lives. In addition to remaining determined in their faith despite the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) persecution, they tell people the facts about the practice, debunk the regime’s slanderous propaganda, and help people quit the CCP organizations.

Practitioners in Puyang City, Henan Province, said they are very thankful that Master Li introduced Falun Dafa to the world and that the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance have rectified the human world and beyond, making our society a better place. “As practitioners, we are responsible for studying the teachings with care and making the best use of our time to walk well our cultivation paths. Only then can we fulfill our mission to save people,” they wrote.

“As we celebrate the 24^th World Falun Dafa Day, we sincerely wish Master Li a Happy Birthday,” wrote practitioners in Huludao City, Liaoning Province. “We are very fortunate to be Dafa practitioners and constantly improve ourselves in this earthly world. We are very thankful for Master’s compassion and will remain diligent in cultivation to improve our character and help more people find out about Falun Dafa.”

Practitioners from Baicheng City, Jilin Province, said Falun Dafa banished their illnesses and gave them great health. “Not only that, we learned that life is not about competing for personal gain; rather, it is important to follow the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and return to our origin,” they wrote. “We’ve learned that we have pain and sorrow for a reason. Cherishing virtue and returning to traditional values will lead us to a better future.”

Practitioners in Fuzhou City, Fujian Province, wrote a poem:

Master is compassionate for introducing Dafa,and we practitioners cultivate diligently.The old forces interfere with obstacles,launching brutal CCP persecution.

Facing great challenges on the way,we must stay steadfast not to go astray;Master guides us out of the maze and protects us,helping us to return to our origin upon consummation.
