(Clearwisdom.net) The first Overseas Falun Dafa Young Disciples' Cultivation
Experience Sharing Conference was held on December 27, 2003 at Shipai School's
Auditorium in Taipei. Nearly 1,200 young Dafa disciples, their parents and
guests from Japan, Malaysia and areas across Taiwan attended the conference.
Young disciples who attended the conference ranged from young children to
high school students. The youngest was only two or three years old. At present,
there are about 300,000 Falun Gong practitioners in Taiwan. Many practitioners'
children practice Falun Gong, and many practitioners' family members also came
to attend the conference. Before the conference, more than 60 young disciples came to the stage to
recite Falun Dafa scriptures, even some very young disciples could also recite
the scriptures quite fluently. Taipei Minghui School sponsored the conference. They received dozens of
cultivation experience sharing papers. Due to the limitation of time, they could
not arrange every young disciple to make a presentation. About 20 young
disciples shared their cultivation experiences. One of the hosts Chen Yunru is currently at her second year in high school,
and she has practiced Falun Dafa for three years. She said in her experience
sharing that, since her practice of Falun Gong, her schoolwork has never been
negatively affected. She is a good student with excellent school reports, and
she gets along well with her family members and students. Fellow students wrote
in the Christmas cards they sent her that she is a good girl. She often tells
her classmates about the truth of Falun Gong at school, most students have not
been deceived by Jiang regime's lies. They know much about Falun Gong. As a
Falun Dafa cultivator, she gets along well with her classmates. One of the young disciples who reported their cultivation experience was
little Ai Lun from Taipei. She mentioned her experience in March 2003 when she
and her mother went to Hong Kong to attend Falun Dafa practitioners' activity.
Upon arriving at Hong Kong airport, she and her mother were illegally detained
by customs, because both their names were on Jiang regime's black list for
practicing Falun Gong. During over a dozen hours of detention, she didn't eat
any food, and she witnessed Hong Kong police beating Falun Gong practitioners
until their noses bled. She said she would no longer go to Hong Kong, nor would
her good friend go. A Taiwan young practitioner reported the cultivation experience on behalf of
a 12-year-old practitioner from Washington DC. The practitioner said in his
report that once at a composition writing class, they were asked to write about
a famous person. He chose to write about Falun Dafa Master. In his composition,
he talked about Master's teachings, and Master's contribution to humanity and
society. In the classroom presentation, every student listened to him
attentively, and they learned about Falun Gong and
"Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance." He got an A+ for that composition. He also
mentioned that once a student from China said some bad words once he heard of
Falun Gong and repeated the "self-immolation" incident. The practitioner then
told this student about the facts of Falun Gong and gave him a truth-clarifying
VCD. That student changed his attitude toward Dafa later. Minghui Schools from Japan, Canada and Washington DC presented short movies
they produced, introducing activities in their Minghui Schools, including Fa
study, exercise practice, arts performances and students' participation in truth
clarification. The attendees gained further understanding of Minghui Schools
overseas. The conference also received congratulatory message from Japan Minghui
School. After the conference, there was an arts performance, including singing songs
composed by Falun Gong practitioners, dancing, music instrumental playing,
movie, story-telling with patters, and drum performance. The instrumental music
performances included playing over a dozen songs with an erhu, flute and other
instruments. The atmosphere of the arts performance reached the climax with
young practitioners' singing and dancing. The conference and arts performance
concluded at dusk.
