(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners in Taipei, Taiwan, studied the Fa together and shared their experiences of practicing Falun Gong in the auditorium of the New Taipei City Banqiao District Office on April 23, 2023.
Falun Gong practitioners gathered from ten districts in Taipei.
Many practitioners shared their experiences of eliminating the attachment to sentimentality and their efforts to promote Shen Yun.
One practitioner named Ziyu received an invitation to attend an event for a local politician. She didn’t plan to attend initially, but changed her mind when she realized it’d be a great opportunity to promote Shen Yun. One of the speakers talked about the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) infiltration in Taiwan. Ziyu talked with the speaker after the event and introduced Shen Yun to him. He bought nine tickets on the spot.
Ziyu was encouraged by that initial event. She’s attended more and more discussions and forums since then, and plans to keep going to them even after the Shen Yun show season wraps up.
Another practitioner named Huiwen talked about dealing with her attachment to food. She said when the attachment struck, she couldn’t stop eating. After realizing her attachment, Huiwen refused to accept it, and the attachment eventually withered away. She further realized that discomfort and the desire to sleep more were also human notions and feelings, and cultivators ought to deny these incorrect states.
Another practitioner, a man named Jianhao, has been hosting online sessions to teach people the Falun Gong exercises. He said that many people attended during the peak of the pandemic, but the number of attendees had decreased as the situation improved. Jianhao initially thought that his fellow practitioners should work harder to promote the online learning sessions. His second thought was that he should change his mindset and think positively. He continued to teach earnestly even if only one person attended. As he thought more about what else he could do, he felt that he received encouragement and innovative ideas from Master Li, Falun Gong’s founder. Jianhao shared the online exercise-learning information with his friends who are computer-savvy. Then, they shared the information with their friends. The number of attendees has climbed again.
