(Clearwisdom.net) On September 12, 2005, when I saw the call for papers for "The Second Mainland China Falun Dafa Practitioners Cultivation Experience Sharing Conference on the Internet," I felt really happy. Under the current special circumstances in Mainland China, it is a great honor for us Dafa practitioners to be able to participate in such a grand cultivation experience sharing conference again, and it is also a precious opportunity for us to summarize our Fa-rectification cultivation in the past six years and share our experiences with fellow practitioners in Mainland China. Furthermore, it is a grand conference that will demonstrate the wonder of Dafa and reflect how Mainland China Dafa practitioners have worked as one body in validating the Fa, clarifying the truth and saving sentient beings.
Every Dafa practitioner in Mainland China has experienced the test of life and death over the past six years of the wicked and brutal persecution, and each has let go of self to the maximum extent and validated the Fa while clarifying the truth to the people through various means. All genuine Dafa practitioners have experienced, to various degrees, Master's merciful protection while they were validating the Fa. The wonder of Dafa has manifested in each of us with supernormal might. All our cultivation experience sharing, the wonders that we have experienced and our righteous thoughts and righteous actions are to be kept for future reference, for history, and they are the true portrayal of the path Dafa practitioners have walked during the Fa-rectification period. While validating the Fa, we Dafa practitioners do the three things well according to Master's requirement, let go of our fundamental attachments and improve our xinxing, as we validate the Fa with compassion and kind thoughts as genuine Dafa disciples. The heroic undertaking of Dafa practitioners functioning as one body in eliminating the evil and saving sentient beings has also demonstrated the mighty power of Dafa. The righteous behavior of Dafa disciples will be taken as reference by people in the future, so we really should accurately record in writing this unprecedented period of history.
I remember when papers were solicited for "The First Mainland China Falun Dafa Practitioners Cultivation Experience Sharing Conference on the Internet," in 2004. Practitioners in our region held many experience sharing meetings, and many practitioners submitted their sharing to Clearwisdom.net. What touched our hearts most was that many elderly practitioners and practitioners from the countryside who did not have much education (some of them did not even know how to read and write) wrote their experience sharing in a simple and direct way, with only a few hundred characters. There were many such sharing articles. In fact, every Dafa practitioner has a righteous field and each of us has enormous energy power, and therefore no matter how many or how few characters we write in our sharing or how well we can write our sharing, they all play a very positive role, and at the same time they also eliminate the evil elements in other dimensions.
When papers were called for again this year, I was a bit hesitant. In retrospect, I felt that I had not been diligent enough lately and I did not have an adequate understanding about submitting sharing articles either. Writing about our cultivation experience over the past six years, sharing the process of Dafa practitioners gradually becoming more mature as one body, as well as our experiences and lessons learned and our improved understanding of the Fa principles, can help each of us see our shortcomings, learn from others and advance together. At the same time, we can walk our path of saving sentient beings even better and more righteously.
When I discovered my shortcomings, I calmed down and started writing down my cultivation experience. When I picked up the pen, I experienced a feeling of sacredness and solemnity. During our Fa-rectification cultivation, every step we take is permeated with Master's enormous sacrifice and endurance. If it had not been for Master and Dafa, we would not have been able to become Dafa disciples, a title admired by all gods in the cosmos. Master and Dafa have given us the highest honor and all that we shall have in the future. On the path of Fa-rectification cultivation over the past six years, we have been fulfilling our sacred mission as "Fa-rectification period Dafa disciples" in the process of clarifying the truth and saving sentient beings. We have thus, with the mercy and protection of Master, come through step by step amidst huge tribulations. Only by cherishing the path we have walked in the past, can we walk even better on the remaining path of validating the Fa.
I suggest that more Mainland China Dafa practitioners cherish this rare opportunity, pick up a pen and write down our own Fa-rectification cultivation experiences and submit our sharing. I feel that it is not important how well we can write or how much Dafa work we have done; the key point is that we should realize that we must participate in Dafa work as one body. The Minghui/Clearwisdom website is our Dafa practitioners' website and we all have a responsibility and obligation to support it.
