(Clearwisdom.net)
On August 12, 2005, the Clearwisdom team published a notice to western
practitioners Calling for Articles: How Did You Become a Dafa Practitioner?
Since then, we have received numerous submissions from practitioners. They
were from different countries and from different walks of life, from
accomplished pianists, famed musicians, to prisoners; from youngsters to an 86
year-old gentleman. They all shared how Falun Dafa has profoundly changed their
lives, both physically and mentally.
We compiled some of the articles from the published articles on
Clearwisdom.net. We also included a few articles from Taiwan.
A practitioner remembered the first night he read Zhuan Falun when he was
15-years-old
I can still vividly remember the first night I started reading Zhuan
Falun. I was in a very bitter mood, and was also feeling quite angry and
jealous. Since I had nothing else to do, I picked up Zhuan Falun and read
the first lecture. The principles contained within it struck a deep chord with
me. Even though much of the vocabulary was over my head, there was something
familiar and comforting about the book. By the time I was done, I had a
remarkable sensation that I had never experienced before. It was a sense of true
calm, of contentment from the bottom of my heart. The jealousy and bitterness
that only hours before had seemed to consume me disappeared. That night, I went
to sleep smiling, and got the best sleep of my life.
A Taiwanese practitioner who obtained Fa in jail described his experience:
It was like the darkness fading away as the morning arrives, after listening
to Teacher Li's lecture tapes for just 8 days.
A young lady was struck with multiple sclerosis when she was only 25 years
old. She shared her experience:
I continued doing the exercises, sometimes sitting in a chair and sometimes
standing. I slowly read Zhuan Falun. I became stronger and stronger and
my vision became clearer. Within a few short months all of my symptoms
disappeared and now I have been symptom free for over 4 years. My eyesight has
improved and I have the least amount of correction in my glasses that I have
ever had since I started wearing glasses. I have been able to go back to work,
and I am leading a full and busy life once again. In the Memorial Day Parade I
was even able to perform the exercises on a moving float without falling off.
Before, I had a hard time standing on the ground without falling.

There are many touching stories like these.
On the occasion of World Falun Dafa Day, we want to express our sincere
thanks to our revered Teacher.
We also welcome practitioners to continue to share your stories so people
around the world can benefit from your experience.
