Following the Righteous Way Back Home: The Story of a Young Dafa Practitioner in Ukraine

(Clearwisdom.net) Aleksey is a 20-year-old young man living in Ukraine. Since 2003 he has been practicing Falun Dafa, a cultivation way for mind and body, by following the principle of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." His 23-year-old sister, Elena, who now plays the role of his music partner, is also a practitioner. Elena started to practice one year earlier than Aleksey.

Composing the Music

After experiencing the wonderfulness of Falun Dafa, Aleksey decided to express his feelings in his music. He started to compose this piece of music in June 2005 when he was in the military service. It took him two more months before he could finalize it.

During the months he composed the piece, Aleksey said that he occasionally saw some beautiful scenes, which seemed to be very familiar to him, although he had never seen them in this life before. During once such experience, Aleksey said he saw an old man living in the mountains. The old man explained to Aleksey that he had originally come from a very harmonious and wonderful world. After such experiences Aleksey found that he could remember a lot of things that had happened in the past.

Using music as a medium

Aleksey said that he transferred the feelings he experienced during his cultivation into this piece of music: to be calm and peaceful, to be simple and pure so as to be less restrained by all human attachments, to experience bliss beyond human happiness, and to be enlightened. He said he felt calm and peaceful when he played this piece of music.

He wants to share with others his wonderful experiences while returning to his original, true self. He would like to awaken the goodness in people's hearts and to let them know that they also can return to their true homes by following Falun Dafa, the righteous cultivation way.

A compassionate reminder

Aleksey has made a lot of new friends in the Army since he started his military service one and a half years ago. He had explained to them what Falun Dafa is, how this cultivation has benefited millions of people, and that the horrendous persecution is still going on in China.

One day this autumn, a friend came into his room while he was listening to some Falun Dafa music. While listening they both fell asleep, waking up two hours later. His friend said that he had been having a dream." He went on to say, "I was in a beautiful place, where all the people were very kind. It seemed to me that it was my home." He could not hide his excitement, saying he had never experienced such a dream before.

They continued talking about his experience of Falun Dafa for about 40 minutes. "This music is really very nice. I like it and I want to do something good for the people now," said his friend before he left.

Born and raised in Ukraine, Aleksey likes traditional Chinese culture and had always felt close to oriental culture. He said he would like to share his music, and not only with his Ukraine friends. He also wishes to send a message to the people of China via his music: Never forget the great values of your traditional culture.
