Taitung, Taiwan: Falun Dafa Practitioners Express Heartfelt Gratitude Toward Master Li During Chinese New Year

(Minghui.org) Ahead of Chinese New Year, which falls on February 10, 2024, Falun Dafa practitioners gathered at Taitung County Stadium on January 6, 2024, to respectfully wish Master Li a happy New Year. They put their palms together in heshi, and from the bottom of their hearts wished, “Master, happy Chinese New Year!”

Practitioners gathered at Taitung County Stadium and wished Master Li, the founder of Falun Dafa, a Happy Chinese New Year.

Practitioners practice Falun Dafa’s meditation exercise.

Taitung County Stadium is situated next to the historic Railway Art Village and market place. In recent years, it has become a popular attraction for leisure travel in downtown Taitung and has become a location where practitioners raise awareness about the truth of Falun Dafa. The practitioners dressed in their bright yellow exercise costumes and assembled on the lush green meadows attracted the attention of many passersby.

Practitioners performed Falun Dafa’s five sets of exercises after wishing revered Master Li a happy Chinese New Year. The practitioners then shared some of the physical and mental benefits they had experienced through practicing Falun Dafa, and expressed their deepest gratitude toward Master.

Government Employee: Guiding Myself With Compassion Changed My Life

Mr. Xu recently retired after working as a department head in a government agency. “The biggest change in me was the change in my mindset after practicing Falun Dafa for 22 years. I tried my best to adhere to Falun Dafa’s principles of ‘Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance’ and have compassion while handling private or work issues. It was wonderful seeing that many things became smoother this way,” he said.

“I’ve dealt with some challenging employees, but if I changed my mindset and treated them with compassion, they would change for the better. They are able to feel my compassion and know that I cultivate Falun Dafa. Many of my employees have praised Falun Dafa,” he said.

“Many of my family members understand the beauty of ‘Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.’ They know that Falun Dafa is great from the bottom of their hearts, and they have experienced and felt it for themselves,” he said.

Mr. Xu thought Falun Dafa was a qigong practice that only healed illnesses and ailments when he first encountered it. However, after genuinely practicing Falun Dafa, he realized that it was a cultivation practice that leads people toward higher levels. “Falun Dafa changed my perspectives and guided the direction of my life,” he said. “My life has changed completely. I have truly benefited a lot, and I am filled with gratitude toward Master.”

Relatives Benefit From Falun Dafa and Experience the Miracles of Dafa

Su Feng has cultivated Falun Dafa since 2007 and shared some of the benefits she has experienced over the years. This included how her brother survived stomach cancer and how her elderly 95-year-old mother still manages to attend Fa conferences every year.

Su Feng’s older brother was diagnosed with stomach cancer, and had two-thirds of his stomach removed. He also underwent heart surgery to have stents placed in his heart. Her brother's cancer relapsed in 2023, and he was sent to the emergency room. He went into cardiac arrest several times and the doctors issued a critical notice. Su Feng recollected that when her brother woke up, he could not speak but kept signaling that he wanted to write. He wrote the word, “Lun”(輪). Su Feng asked if he wanted to write “Falun Dafa is good,” and her brother nodded.

The doctors contacted the cardiology department to conduct tests as soon as her brother’s condition was stable. Though his breathing and heartbeat stopped several times, tests showed that his heart was not damaged and his brain waves were normal. The doctors were amazed at the results. The cancer cells had also disappeared when Su Feng’s brother was discharged from the hospital in November. The doctors were once again amazed and one said, “This is a huge miracle.”

Su Feng stated that she had always reminded her brother and sister-in-law to sincerely recite “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” during family gatherings. She was deeply touched that Master and Dafa saved her family. She said, “Falun Dafa is magnificent! It is a miracle! Master is great! Words can’t describe my gratitude toward Master.”
