A Young Disciple from Taiwan: I am the Most Privileged Person in the World
By a young practitioner from Taiwan
(Clearwisdom.net) If someone asks me, "Who is the most privileged person on earth," I
would firmly reply, "I am." Why would I say that? I say so because I have attained the Fa.
Attaining the Fa has allowed me to recognize the truth of the universe. Now I
clearly understand that Falun Dafa is good. I always know to look inside myself.
I feel very honored to be able to attain the Fa. After attaining the Fa, I feel
that I have largely improved in various aspects, and my life has been enriched
immensely. I have many good friends and teachers, and a healthy and happy family. My
parents try to take care of my little brother and me in every way. In school,
not only do I have the compassion and knowledge from my teachers, but also the
companionship of good friends and classmates. Together with my friends, I can
work on schoolwork or have fun. Dafa opened up my mind and made me realize that just because a person
possesses money and materials does not mean that he is necessarily happy, since
he does not know how to use his wealth for good. If he does not know to be
charitable and values his money more than anything else, do you think his soul
is truly happy? Wouldn't it be empty and hollow? On the other hand, a person who
is poor might not necessarily be poor. Perhaps he helps others, and knows the
principle of giving to others in order to be happy. He would then live his life
joyfully. Wouldn't his soul be very rich then? That person who possesses many
material things, but has an empty heart, is the truly poor one! Dafa has taught me what it means to be rich. Many people may think that it
would be to possess money, and to own precious birds and animals. That is not
necessarily incorrect, but looking at it from a higher level, being rich is not
at all about possessing more material wealth, but instead to possess more
virtue, and a pure and compassionate heart. Of course, regardless of whether in
knowledge or manners in daily life, a rich person has a more intelligent mind,
understands more, and looks at things with more wisdom. That's how I look at being rich or poor. The next time someone asks me,
"Who is the most privileged person on earth," I will still firmly say,
"That is me, of course!" Of course, I will also tell him why and what it means to be truly rich. I
will tell him about my improvements after practicing Falun Dafa, and if there is
time, I will also introduce him to Zhuan Falun. Then, he can also attain
the Fa and benefit as I have. |
