Appreciation for Falun Dafa
Daniella said that Falun Dafa keeps her positive and that Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance are her moral foundation.
Daniella from Ottawa said she had some tribulations when she was 13 years old. Her mother recommended she read the book Zhuan Falun. She said she felt that every word in the book was talking to her. She realized that with Falun Dafa and Dafa’s principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, she would no longer be a helpless victim. She said that no matter how helpless she felt, she always stayed positive. She decided to start practicing Falun Dafa.
Daniella said that Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance are her moral foundation. Truthfulness can bring trust among people. The world would be terrible and dangerous if there was no compassion. Forbearance helps one to break through oneself. One should believe that they can turn things around and not be trapped in negativity. She believes that Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance can bring stability to society and interpersonal relationships.
She bought a recently translated version of Zhuan Falun during the conference break.
Developing Compassion
Max bought an English version of Zhuan Falun so that he could better introduce Falun Dafa to Westerners.
Max from Toronto started practicing Falun Dafa in 2003. Although he was not always diligent, he never thought of giving it up. He said he felt a powerful force pushing him and he realized that he was a particle of Falun Dafa and would never give it up.
He shared his story: “I underwent a fundamental change within myself after I began practicing Falun Dafa. I used to be selfish and never considered others. I only thought of myself, but I didn’t think it was wrong. After I practiced Falun Dafa, I realized that I was self-centered. I will try to get rid of selfishness and become compassionate and help others.”

She said she was searching for the meaning of life when she heard about Falun Dafa. She realized she should assimilate to the universal principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and return to the origin of life.
Carolle said that she’d met people who were interested in Falun Dafa, so she bought extra copies of Zhuan Falun and other Dafa books for them. She said that it was important to have Falun Dafa books and other materials ready for people when they wished to learn Falun Dafa.
