A practitioner wrote an article saying that studying the Fa is like "having a meal." I have similar feelings.

In the beginning of this year, Master hinted to me in my dreams quite a few times that I needed to do more Fa study. It happened for a few consecutive days. Once I dreamed that I was taking an airplane to go home, but it was a wrong airplane. I went to the pilot and asked him which plane I should switch to. He said that if I wanted to go home I needed to have my meal first, which I thought quite peculiar. Later on I realized that the dream was trying to tell me that I needed to study the Fa more.

Another time I dreamed that I carried a backpack, onto which I neatly wrote, " Study hard. Double your effort to complete the journey home." When I opened the backpack I found in it a super-sized lunch box filled with food. My feeling at the time was that I had to finish it all before I could go home. During that period I constantly had dreams that hinted to me that I should study the Fa more.

Besides Fa study, it was also hinted to me that I should send forth righteous thoughts more often. I dreamed that I went to my grandma's house one day and the house was quite shabby. Outside it was sunny and bright but inside it was quite dark. A thought came to me at the moment, "Send forth righteous thoughts."

Another time I dreamed that I was having an examination that I was not prepared for. There were two examiners. The name of the main examiner contained a word "wen" meaning "study," and the name of the assistant examiner contained a word "li" meaning "power." I realized that it was hinting to me that I needed to study the Fa harder and send forth righteous thoughts more often.

Master said that we need to do three things. In the past, relative to studying the Fa and sending forth righteous thoughts, I focused more on clarifying the truth. I sort of neglected the other two activities because I was so eager to do truth-clarification. Now I realized that by studying the Fa and sending forth righteous thoughts we are saving sentient beings as well. The world of mine is not completely rectified yet - some evil still remains. Many sentient beings are yet to be assimilated with Dafa. Studying the Fa can enable many sentient beings to be assimilated to Dafa and be saved. Now when I study the Fa I can feel a large amount of energy pouring into my body. When the energy is strong, I feel that it fills my body to the brim, which is the same feeling as after having a big meal. Now each day I hold myself to studying at least one chapter of Zhuan Falun and to try as much as I can to send forth righteous thoughts on the hour.

What I have reported here is the status of my own cultivation, which may not apply to others, but I still like to share it with everyone.
