Practitioners held activities at Douliu Humanities Park on May 13 to celebrate Falun Dafa Day.

A group of cyclists from Shimizu and Fengyuan in Taichung talked with practitioners.
Practitioners demonstrated the five exercises during the event in Humanity Park. Some handed out informational materials and talked with people. A group of young cyclists from Shimizu and Fengyuan in Taichung noticed the practitioners and asked them to photograph them. After that, they gladly took little lotus flowers and information about Falun Dafa.
A man who reads the Epoch Times said, “I know the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is very evil!” He said he also knew that the CCP harvests organs from practitioners. He said, “I read the Epoch Times every day and I understand the true situation. The CCP has no humanity, it also turns people into demons. Because of this I passionately hate the CCP!”
During the activity, the practitioners recalled how they began practicing Falun Dafa, as well as how they improved their xinxing. They also expressed their gratitude to Master.
When I Improved, My Environment Changed
Mr. Xie Yuanqing sincerely appreciates Master.
Mr. Xie Yuanqing is an assistant at a Falun Dafa Assistance Center in Yulin County. He noticed that his colleagues often read Zhuan Falun, so, out of curiosity, he decided to give it a try. He said, “I realized it was something good, and an unusual book. At that time, I happened to come across an article published in a magazine by a professor at National Taiwan University who was diagnosed with cancer and went to China to learn Falun Dafa. After he began practicing his cancer was resolved. I was in poor health then. After I learned about the health benefits, I decided to practice Falun Dafa.”
He ran into a bottleneck at work. He encountered many conflicts, especially with the management team. “I felt they were sabotaging me, and I was about to quit my job.” He said, “When I was first hired I was ostracized by my colleagues. They spoke ironically to me, making me feel very uncomfortable. Every day was challenging. I was about to resign.”
Yuanqing said, “After I attended the nine-day class I understood the Fa principles. By looking inward, I understood that the issues were mine. So I talked with my manager, which caught him off guard.” After attending the nine-day class, Yuanqing said it was as if he was a new person. From then on, he went to work in high spirits, and gladly faced the challenges. Under the guidance of Dafa’s principles, he came to understand that the purpose of one living in this world was to go back to one’s true self.
“The environment around me changed for the better. The conflicts I had with my colleagues and managers went away.” He said, “It’s truly magnificent. The improvement in my xinxing and health can not be exchanged with money, although for one to practice Dafa requires no money. As long as one has the heart to do it, one will benefit.
“In our cultivation process, in our day-to-day life, including at work, no matter what we run into, as long as we use a cultivator’s mindset to deal with it, we should be able to handle it well. My gratitude is beyond any words.” He said, “Thank you Master! Thank you for introducing Falun Dafa to the world!”
Not Affected by Desire
Mr. Chen Yingcong said, “Master, Happy Birthday!”
Mr. Chen was a school principal before he retired. In 2000, because he was deeply troubled by the school personnel arrangements, he tried to find a way to resolve the issues. He went to a local practice site at the Douliu Library and asked the practitioners about Falun Dafa.
He said, “I truly began to practice in 2004. At that time, the Qibaishi Arts Exhibition toured to Yunlin city. As practitioners were not familiar with the procedures and how to apply for sponsorship, they asked me to help. I noticed that they were very cohesive, and every one of them was very sincere and honest. One practitioner who brought more than a hundred famous paintings to Yunlin for display dressed up very plainly. When I wanted to treat her to a simple meal, she declined. At night, practitioners volunteered to take on night shifts to protect the paintings and in the daytime, they introduced them to visitors. I was very touched! Through their actions I realized that cultivation was about cultivating one’s heart. For one to have a pure heart is already a wonderful state, however, in one’s cultivation, if one can sever desire and other attachments, wouldn’t that be even better? That’s why I decided to begin practicing Falun Dafa.”
He added, “I truly appreciate Master for introducing Falun Dafa. I changed from someone who was easily irritated, to be someone with a positive attitude regardless of whether it’s a good or bad thing. Because of cultivation, my mother’s liver cirrhosis also disappeared. She is now 96 years old and is in good health. I’d like to thank Master for his blessings. I truly appreciate Falun Dafa!”
