He said, “Since I have been cultivating Falun Dafa, my character has improved. Before, I was a grumpy person who loved to drink, gamble, and smoke. I even started taking drugs when I was in high school. But after I started practicing Falun Dafa, all those bad habits disappeared.”

Celebrating World Falun Dafa Day is a great joy for Jamal. He said, “Since I have been following Falun Dafa’s teachings of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, my xinxing has really improved. Now, my family lives in harmony. It was the best transformation of my life. I will do better in my cultivation and continue to assimilate to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.”
