(Clearwisdom.net) We established our Fa study group in November 2007. In the beginning it was only practitioners A and D; later, practitioners B and C joined. We decided to study the Fa together one day a week. With Teacher's compassionate protection, a year has just passed. In this one body, we've all benefited and have elevated to different degrees. We would like to share our experiences.

Before starting Fa study we send forth righteous thoughts to disintegrate evil in and around our field, then we quietly sit down and start reading Zhuan Falun, each taking a turn to read a section. In this way we finish two lectures during the study time. After that, we share our experiences and then discuss and coordinate the three things we will do in the coming week. Finally, we distribute truth clarification materials. Practitioners A and B (husband and wife) are in charge of the informational materials, and they bring us well-designed flyers and articles from "Minghui Weekly." They even select and print some Minghui (Chinese version of Clearwisdom) articles that could be useful for each of us to improve our xinxing.

Practitioner A has been studying the Fa well since she became a Dafa disciple in 1999. Her every step in cultivation has been very steady, and in dealing with most issues, she has righteous thinking like that of a god. Her home is a small materials production site. She prepares the materials, from downloading to printing and binding, by herself. She even maintains and repairs the printer without hiring anyone else. Her hands are always stained with ink. She also purchases the stationary supplies. In the winter, her workroom is very cold, so she has to wear a very thick cotton jacket and pants in order to continue to produce materials that save the people in the surrounding villages. Her behavior and efforts have certainly helped create a good atmosphere in our Fa study team.

Practitioner B also obtained Dafa in 1999. As he is busy at work with very little free time, he doesn't take part in our regular Fa study, except when he is looking for another contract. But he is quick to catch up. When studying the Fa, he does it with a great deal of respect, and always sits up straight. He is willing to point out, with good intentions, others' shortcomings. One time, when Practitioner D was sitting improperly for studying the Fa, B said quietly with a smile, "Is it possible that you could sit a little bit straighter?" Since then, the sitting posture of D has become more upright. As far as truth clarification is concerned, Practitioner B has been doing very well--wherever he goes, he tells people about the goodness of Dafa. At every group sharing meeting he attends, he tells us about his experiences and lessons for our mutual benefit.

Practitioner C didn't know how to read many Chinese words, but that didn't hold her back from studying the Fa. She increased her vocabulary in two ways: When her family was watching television, she'd focus on the captions on the screen and at the same time listen to what was being said. Also, she wrote down any words she didn't recognize and asked others for the meaning and pronunciation. In so doing, she came to gradually know more and more words. By the time she joined our group Fa study there weren't many words she couldn't read. Reading more helped her to increase her vocabulary and have the correct pronunciation. Thus, together, the more and better we study the Fa, the more and faster we elevate in every respect.

Practitioner C hands out fliers, and talks with people every afternoon. Since she has righteous thoughts and doesn't have any fear, the outcome of her truth clarification is very successful. She asks people a simple question: "Did you join any of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) organizations?" If the answer is yes, she will say, "Withdraw from them." "Why?" "For your own safety." It's as simple as that. Some of those who withdrew from CCP also wanted to learn Falun Gong.

Practitioner D is the youngest person in our group. Due to her insufficient Fa study, she had not assimilated to the Fa--she still had lots of human things. After taking part in the group Fa study and sending righteous thoughts regularly, she was able to deal with issues with righteous thinking and has gotten rid of many human notions. Now she understands her mission and responsibility, knows that she is here on earth for the sake of saving sentient beings, and that any human attachments should be eliminated so that she can completely purify herself and assimilate with Dafa and finally follow our compassionate Master to return home.

Being among fellow practitioners who are in good a cultivation state has helped Practitioner D. When Teacher saw the righteous thoughts emerge in D, lots of bad things were removed from her. Now her state of mind is steady--she is doing the "three things" in a proper manner and is righteously walking on her cultivation path arranged by Teacher, absolutely negating all the old forces' arrangements and keeping abreast of the course of Teacher's Fa-rectification.

This is our Fa study group. Each one of us is being tempered, and each one of us is protecting this precious atmosphere of Fa study. We have been working diligently to become genuine Dafa practitioners, aiming to fulfill our prehistoric vows, and reaching consummation, following Teacher on the journey of our return.
