(Minghui.org) At the grand occasion of World Falun Dafa Day 2023, Falun Dafa practitioners from around the world are sending their warmest greetings to celebrate the 31^st anniversary of Dafa’s introduction to the public.

Some of them have practiced Falun Dafa for over 20 years. They thank Master Li, the founder of Falun Dafa, for teaching the practice and guiding them on a spiritual path returning to their original, true selves. They hope to share the practice far and wide so that more people can benefit from it.

A practitioner in Laishui County, Hebei Province, recalled, “My family couldn’t afford to send me to school when I was little, so I was illiterate. After I decided to practice Falun Dafa, I was desperate to read its book. One night after opening the book, the words turned into little people dressed in yellow kasayas. Later, I could hear Master’s voice teaching me how to read the characters. After that winter, I was able to read Zhuan Falun, the main text of Falun Dafa, by myself. The entire village was amazed. I then started to teach other villagers to read the book.”

An 87-year-old practitioner in Dixiongshan Town, Liaoning Province, wrote, “Before I took up Dafa in January 1999, I had many ailments and was in great pain every day. By practicing Dafa, I recovered. Dafa not only cured my diseases but also elevated my thinking and expanded my understanding of the world.

“Over the years, Master has always been looking after me. I was once knocked down by a cow. Without Master’s protection, I might have died in that accident. Another time, I fell off a ladder and landed on my head. Master saved my life again!”

Another practitioner in the countryside in Zhaoyuan City, Shandong Province, said, “I’m in my 60s. I began practicing Dafa less than ten years ago when I was looking for a cure for a terminal disease. Thanks to Dafa’s protection and blessing, I recovered and survived two major car accidents.”
