Falun Gong practitioners in Kaohsiung gathered in front of the Weiwuying National Theater in Kaohsiung to wish Mr. Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Gong, a Happy New Year in 2024.
Yating and her husband and son are grateful to Master and wish Master a Happy New Year.
Yating, the head of a biotechnology company, grew up in a devout Buddhist family and had a desire for cultivation in her heart since she was a child. After she grew up, in addition to working, Yating actively participated in community public welfare services, and often visited temples to find a belief that resonated with her. Once Yating and her husband went to a Taoist temple to meditate. The people around them either hiccuped or made strange noises. They felt that the place was not righteous, so they never went back again.
Yating met a Falun Gong practitioner at a dinner, and the practitioner shared some deeper insights into the Falun Dafa practice with her. Yating felt that the practice suited her, so she took her whole family to participate in Falun Gong nine-day classes. Yating finally found the answers to many of her questions that she had about cultivation over the years, and she started cultivating in Falun Dafa.
Yating said that after cultivation, her family is more harmonious. “When both husband and wife are practitioners, they will have common ideas and goals in life,” she said. “In conflicts, we are able to look inward for our own faults and consider others.
“Before cultivation, we often quarreled endlessly, but now we rarely do. After the pandemic, I encountered a lot of difficulties with the economy and at work, but because I adhere to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, I had good fortune and passed the tests safely.”
Yating gives top priority to morality when she educates her child. She does not put too much pressure on him to do his homework, and takes him to practice Dafa with her. Yating has also told her friends about the beauty of Dafa so that they can understand the truth about the CCP’s persecution of Falun Gong.
“Being able to obtain Dafa is the happiest thing in life,” Yating said. “I have come to understand many truths of the universe, and understand that the real purpose of people coming to this world is to cultivate and return to their origin. At the end of the year, I would like to thank Master for His mercy, and I wish Master a Happy New Year.”
Wei Cheng and his wife and child practice Dafa together as a family.
Wei Cheng, who works in a government agency, had been interested in cultivation since he was a child. Before his first year of high school, his landlord gave his father a copy of Zhuan Falun. When Wei Cheng opened the book for the first time and saw the image of Master, a wave of energy rushed to his face. It happened three times in a row. Wei Cheng felt that this was an extraordinary cultivation book, and he cherished it.
“When I was in college, I participated in the Falun Gong nine-day class, and after that I really started to practice Falun Gong,” Wei Cheng said.
Wei Cheng understood from Master’s teachings that as a student, he should do his homework well, do his job well, and while studying the Fa and practicing the exercises, he should also be serious about his schoolwork, so when he graduates he will be the best in the class. During his graduate school years, he was admitted into the civil service. Wei Cheng realized that this was a blessing from Master because he cultivates in Dafa.
Wei Cheng is also one of the members of the Tian Guo Marching Band, and he participates in activities to spread the Fa during his holidays. He and his wife practice together. The couple are very grateful to Master. Wei Cheng said: “All the happiness I have is given by Master, and the gratitude in my heart cannot be expressed in words, I am just a small speck of dust in the universe, and I am fortunate to be a Dafa disciple. I am grateful to Master for his kindness.” Wei Cheng and his wife sincerely wished Master a Happy New Year.
Ah Fen, a retiree who worked in the education sector, sincerely wishes Master a Happy New Year.
Yang Ah Fen is a retired high school administrator. A colleague who practices Falun Gong at the school handed her a leaflet in 2001, so Ah Fen participated in a Falun Dafa nine-day class that was held in a primary school. After listening to Master’s teachings, Ah Fen decided to take up the practice.
Before practicing, Ah Fen was a perfectionist at work. This created a lot of pressure for herself psychologically and resulted in her developing insomnia and suffering stomach ulcers at night. While experiencing that pain, she felt that it was very hard to be a human being, and she thought that she must not come to be a human again in her next life. She visited a temple from time to time to ask Buddha for divination, and she pursued the meaning of life, but it was in vain.
Ah Fen said: “After practicing Falun Gong, my health problems significantly improved; my insomnia problem is no longer there; my stomach ulcer has healed, and I know the destiny of life in my heart. I understand that people come to this world because they want to return to their origin.”
Ah Fen realized that as long as she follows the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, she would definitely be able to return to a beautiful world and have peace of mind.
Ah Fen is very grateful to Master: “I was lucky enough to be able to obtain the Fa, become a Dafa disciple, and find meaning and direction in my life. I sincerely wish Master a Happy New Year.”
Mei Di, a retired primary school teacher, was rescued from a desperate situation. She thanks Master for His mercy and salvation.
Mei Di is a retired primary school teacher. More than 30 years ago, due to the death of her parents, she couldn’t let go of her grief. She became depressed and her health took a turn for the worse. She searched for all kinds of treatment methods, from both Chinese and Western medicine, folk therapy, and divination, but her body was still very weak. Her internal organs were malfunctioning. At that time, 30-year-old Mei Di looked like an old lady in her fifties. She was miserable, as if her life had come to an end. But thinking that she had two young children to take care of, she had to hold on.
One day, her husband brought a leaflet home from school introducing Falun Gong. Mei Di saw the picture of a little girl meditating on the leaflet and she liked it. She learned from the flyer that Falun Gong is a high-level cultivation practice. Mei Di thought to herself: “Isn’t this the cultivation method I have longed for, for many years?” She drove a long distance to the city to participate in a nine-day Falun Gong class. She practiced and studied the Fa every day and embarked on her path of cultivation. Since then, her health has recovered day by day.
Mei Di now has a healthy complexion, and her body is disease-free and light. Mei Di set up a practice site to let more people benefit from Dafa, so that people could obtain the Fa and practice with her, and live fulfilling lives every day. Mei Di said, “I am grateful to Master for saving me and making my life shine again. Before the new year comes, I sincerely wish Master a happy New Year and thank Master for His mercy and salvation.”
