(Minghui.org) The Florida Falun Dafa cultivation experience sharing conference was held at Wyndham Garden in downtown Orlando on July 18, 2026.
Sixteen practitioners spoke about how they removed human attachments and improved their character through studying the Fa and diligently practicing Falun Dafa. They also shared examples of telling people about the persecution, working together as one body, and looking within to find shortcomings.

Fan, a young practitioner, read her experience sharing paper at the conference, which focused on three areas of her cultivation—overcoming fatigue, eliminating her addiction to her mobile phone, and improving her character.
Sleepiness had long made it difficult for her to maintain her early morning exercise routine, and she became trapped in a vicious cycle of self-blame. Through sending righteous thoughts nonstop and remembering Master’s teachings, she gradually strengthened her righteous thoughts and broke through the interference of fatigue.
She later discovered her addiction to watching short videos and using her mobile phone was unwittingly depleting her righteous thoughts and fostering her attachment to comfort. Even when she watched “positive” content without restraint, it formed attachments, so she made a conscious effort to restrain herself and keep her main consciousness clear. Fan said everything in cultivation is linked together systematically, so only by persevering in studying the Fa, looking at one’s shortcomings, and eliminating attachments can one breakthrough the pursuit of comfort and walk well on the final path of cultivation.
Yu Huan, a 17-year-old practitioner, reflected on his long-term pursuit of comfort and fear of hardship. Although he understood the principles of the Fa, he was often too relaxed, too addicted to his phone, and avoided difficulties due to irritability and fear of hardship.
A nightmare made him start to reflect on his state of cultivation. He discovered that he would cower when he ran into problems and run away when he was under pressure. He found that this behavior stemmed from his attachment to comfort, selfishness, and not being able to be strict about following the requirements of Dafa. When he studied the Fa with questions in his mind, he read “Transformation of Karma” in Lecture Four of Zhuan Falun and was deeply inspired. He said that he realized, “The main issue is not about my understanding of the Fa but whether I truly compare my character with the standards of Dafa and change myself.”
Yu Huan said in the future, no matter how hard it is, he will walk well on the path of cultivation and be a genuine Dafa disciple.
Pauleen spoke about how she and her husband, also a practitioner, overcame tribulations through their firm conviction in Master and the Fa as well as righteous thoughts. In 2002, her husband’s right calf was crushed twice by an 18-wheel semi-truck while riding a bicycle. His bicycle was crushed to pieces yet his leg was not broken. He recovered without any treatment by just relying on studying the Fa and doing the exercises steadfastly. Pauleen said because her husband had regarded himself as a practitioner a miracle that seemed incredible to everyday people occurred.
Pauleen herself has twice gone through serious sickness karma tribulations. Her whole body was once in great pain and she had difficulty walking. Through reflection, she realized that her attachments to fame and gain, comfort, as well as work achievements, were her problems. She had also slacked off in her Fa study, exercises, and improving her character. She rectified things in accordance with the Fa, and persevered in studying the Fa and doing the exercises.
After about 20 days, she was back to normal. These experiences made her realize that tribulations happen for a reason and are opportunities to progress in cultivation. She said that only by having strong faith in Master and Dafa, eliminating attachments, and truly practicing cultivation can one maintain righteous thoughts and do well in cultivation.
Peiqi shared how she let go of human notions and strengthened her faith in Master and Dafa through practicing cultivation. A lump had appeared on her left palm. She was not moved by human notions, but instead reflected on areas she needed to improve according to the standards required of a practitioner. She stepped up her Fa study and sending of righteous thoughts, and had faith in Master and Dafa. At the same time, during the crucial stage of Shen Yun promotion, she went to deliver promotional materials about the show to homes, along with another practitioner.
A few days later, she discovered that the growth in her palm that had bothered her for nearly a year had gradually grown smaller and finally disappeared. This experience helped her gain a deep understanding, that as long as one lets go of human worries and follows Master’s requirements, miracles will happen. Through this incident, she recognized that practitioners should take the Fa as the guide in difficult situations, walk the path arranged by Master, and truly believe in Master and Dafa.
