(Clearwisdom.net) The cultivation environment has a great influence on young Dafa practitioners' cultivation. Therefore, adult practitioners who are capable shouldn't ignore young Dafa practitioners. They should establish an environment for the young practitioners to cultivate themselves truly and diligently. Through practitioners' clarifying the truth, some kids decided that they would like to learn Dafa. So it is necessary for us to establish an environment for spreading the Fa. With the continuous advancement of Fa-rectification, many veteran and new young students are truly and diligently cultivating themselves in Falun Dafa. There are many moving stories about them.
Young Dafa practitioner Nannan, 11 years old, obtained the Fa in the winter of 2003. After reading Master's article, "Let Go of Human Attachments and Save the World's People," she realized the importance of saving the world's people and told the facts of Dafa to her classmates in school and to her friends in her village. Since September 2004, Nannan has insisted on attending group Fa study on Sundays, even when she has to go by herself. She often brought her younger brother Linlin with her when she went to Fa study. Linlin is 6 years old and in the First Grade. He obtained the Fa in September 2004. He now studies the Fa and practices very seriously.
Young practitioner Yingying, 14 years old, obtained the Fa when she was six. Her body and mind have benefited a lot from Dafa. After the persecution of Falun Gong began, her father and mother were illegally arrested, one after the other. Her cultivation environment was destroyed at that time, so she slackened in her cultivation for a time. However, Yingying has been diligent in her cultivation again since the summer of 2004, when she first attended a group Fa study for young practitioners. She once wrote a composition entitled, "The Heart of Affection" and turned it in to her teacher as an assignment, to openly clarify the truth about Falun Dafa. When her teacher approached her after school to have a conversation, Yingying kept sending forth righteous thoughts toward the teacher and was able to tell her more detailed information about Dafa. Since Yingying got rid of her attachment of fear, and with only the thought of having her teacher know the truth, her teacher chose not to report Yingying to the school administration and let her go, reminding Yingying to be more cautious. When Yingying was in the Tenth Grade, her school studies became more difficult. However, she truly realized that the time for her to cultivate was very precious and that she should cherish her predestined relationship with Dafa. Therefore, Yingying always studies the Fa every day after she finishes her school assignments. She asks her mother to wake her up every morning to practice the exercises and to wake her every night to send righteous thoughts. Instead going out to play on Sundays after she finishes her homework, she insists on studying the Fa and practicing the exercises with other young practitioners. She always explains the truth of Dafa to her friends, and some of them have even asked to learn Falun Dafa from her.
Young Dafa practitioner Jiaxue is in Grade 9. After she learned the truth of Dafa from practitioners, she began studying the Fa together with other young practitioners. A miracle occurred at the very beginning: A small malignant tumor the size of a soybean on the back of her hand became smaller, and several days later it vanished completely. There was only a white mark left on her skin.
Young Dafa practitioner Haohao is less than five years old. He can do all five Falun Gong exercises and can recite all of the poems of Master's Hong Yin II. He also can sit in the full lotus position with his legs crossed on top of each other, and sends righteous thoughts together with his mother and his elder sister. Once when he saw his grandma mopping the floor, he took the mop from his grandma and cleaned the floor himself, saying in low voice to his mother, "Following [the Fa] in everything, compliance is cultivation." (Hong Yin). When his friends came to play with him, his mother told Haohao to tell them that Falun Dafa is good. Then she heard her son say to his friend, "Hey, you should remember that Falun Dafa is good." His friend answered, "I will." Then they went out and played together.
