“Telling People About Falun Dafa”

The organizer of the event, Chen Shou Mo said, “Master put in a lot of effort to tell us about Falun Dafa, and taught us how to improve our xinxing. Master eliminates our karma and teaches us how to be responsible to society and others. We enjoy the wonderful feeling of having a body free of illnesses after practicing Falun Dafa. Of course, we need to share something that is so good with more people. The world needs Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. Practicing Falun Dafa improves one’s body, mind, and soul so that this world becomes more wonderful.”

Zhaoren, who coordinates the central district’s practice sites said that Falun Dafa practitioners in all counties and cities in Taiwan are holding activities in their districts to respectfully wish Master a happy New Year. He said that doing the exercises as a group reminds practitioners of their cultivation state when they first began cultivating, like flowers blossoming all over Taiwan, “I hope that everyone can be more proactive in participating in the events practitioners organize in the future. While we promote the Fa, we also try our best to fulfill our responsibilities and correct practitioners’ exercise movements. We also need to be responsible for our cultivation environment, participate in the group exercises, study the Fa well, cultivate our xinxin} and do the three things well.”

Retired Principal: The Value and Meaning of Life

Shu Chou is a retired primary school principal. After she began practicing Falun Dafa, she felt that life is full of goodness and vitality. She thanked Master for giving her a healthy body so she could help coordinate the practitioners at the Green Tunnel tourist site to practice the exercises and tell people about Falun Dafa. She feels very honored to be able to do this. She said, “I feel honored to practice Falun Dafa. I found the value and meaning of life. I feel so fortunate to be a practitioner. Apart from having a healthier body, I strive to improve my xinxing and abide by the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. I am also able to put others before myself, think of others, look within to find my shortcomings and correct them, treat others with benevolence, kindness, and love, etc.”

Shu Chou, who lives in Gukeng, respectfully wishes Master a Happy New Year.

She said after she began practicing Falun Dafa her mind and body felt very light. She smiled widely and said, “Most of my classmates, friends, and relatives who are my age suffering from many problems such as aches and pains and some even need surgery, etc. Ever since I started cultivating, my body feels very light when I walk. It is just like what Master mentioned in lecture eight of Zhuan Falun, ‘In the past, you would be tired if you walked a few steps, but now it is very easy no matter how far you walk. You feel as if being pushed while riding a bike, and you are not tired when going upstairs—no matter how many floors there are. It is guaranteed to be this way.’”

On New Year’s Day, she came to the Green Tunnel to participate in the group exercise. She respectfully wishes Master a happy New Year and her heart is filled with gratitude.

Practice Diligently in the New Year

Hui Ling helped with the tea sessions and was very happy to join the event. She said that having cultivated it for so long, she always feels positive energy whenever she does the exercises with other practitioners.

She said, “After practicing the exercises, I feel very comfortable. At the start of the new year, I want to correct all my shortcomings and my cultivation. I hope that I can become better and better in 2025 and become more diligent in my cultivation as I progress on the path of validating the Fa.” She said she looks forward to keeping up with the progress of Fa-rectification and will compare her cultivation state with other practitioners, assist Master in validating the Fa and saving sentient beings.
