June 28, 2025 |   By Falun Dafa practitioners in Vancouver

(Minghui.org) A Falun Dafa cultivation experience conference was held in the greater Vancouver region in Burnaby on June 22, 2025. Seventeen practitioners described how they handled situations with compassion and clarified the truth to people in their respective environments or while participating in projects.

Practitioners talked about their cultivation experiences during a conference held in Burnaby in the greater Vancouver area on June 22, 2024.

Cultivation Opportunities

A practitioner spoke about how she improved in cultivation while coordinating Shen Yun ticket sales. She became resentful when things did not go as expected. She later realized that she should focus on doing well herself, instead of trying to change other people. When she rectified her attitude and let go of her attachment, everything changed in a positive direction.

In the past, she was afraid to tell Chinese people about Shen Yun or Falun Dafa. When she took her children to events, she met several Chinese parents. She realized this was arranged by Master and plucked up the courage to tell them how amazing Shen Yun is and about Falun Dafa. The parents not only changed their misunderstandings about Falun Dafa, some bought tickets to see Shen Yun.

She also introduced Shen Yun and Falun Dafa to different people while at work or taking her children on vacation. She broke through many of her notions and attachments, and cherished every opportunity to improve in cultivation and save sentient beings.

Coordinating Well in Projects

Three practitioners who worked in the editing department of media projects spoke of how they helped one another and cooperated well when there were problems at work. They identified their attachments, and helped a team made up of mostly newcomers improve their skills so that the work was more professional and had better results.

One of them said she experienced many conflicts in her life and at work earlier this year. The promotion for this year’s Shen Yun shows was about to begin, and she was brought into conflicts among other media departments. Two experienced staff in the editing team helped share her workload and reminded her to use the opportunity to improve her cultivation. Thanks to their help, she was able to overcome the tribulations, and the conflicts were resolved. The collaboration with other teams while reporting on Shen Yun shows went smoothly, and she often met great interviewees in her role as a reporter.

Another practitioner who was responsible for specific arrangements and training the editing team said that she kept running into conflicts with coworkers and could not find the cause of the problem. Two experienced employees often quietly helped her mend ties with coworkers and encouraged her to learn to communicate better. They suggested that she look at people's positive attributes. The practitioner discovered that she lacked kindness while communicating with coworkers, so she would not do well in her role and this caused her coworkers to lose confidence. She constantly reminded herself to be tolerant of others’ faults, acknowledge their efforts and praise them when they made progress. She made an effort to be kind to others.

The third practitioner said she avoided disagreements because she wanted to have a calm environment. After the department introduced training to boost everyone’s skills, she felt relationships among coworkers were not as serene as before. She tried to mediate things, but gradually realized she had a fear of friction. At the root of this is a selfish desire to protect oneself. She realized that she needed to use her cultivated side to handle such clashes.

Breaking Through Laziness in Cultivation

A young practitioner knew that practicing cultivation is the real purpose of life and felt the urgency of saving people. However, she was not diligent and could not find the cause of the problem. She became frustrated because she frequently forgot things. Master used a family member to tell her that she often forgets things because her main consciousness was weak. She discovered that she regarded letting go of her main consciousness as something natural. After finding the problem, she did not forget things as often.

She also coughed for a long time, but did not think too much about it. While chatting with a practitioner on the phone, the practitioner casually mentioned several articles on Minghui.org. After reading the experience sharing, she reflected on her cultivation state. She felt her boyfriend did not care about her and became resentful. After discovering this attachment, she made up her mind to get rid of her resentment. Before going to a Dafa activity one day, she sent righteous thoughts for an hour and in it, added the thought to eliminate things that are not in accordance with the Fa. She could feel her resentment disappear, leaving only righteous thoughts and compassion. From that day on, her cough got better, and soon she recovered completely.

In the past, she was embarrassed to tell people about Falun Dafa. She gradually overcame her fear and on several occasions, during gatherings with friends, she was able to take the initiative to explain the facts about the persecution to her friends and the results were great.

Saving More People

A veteran practitioner who recently moved to Vancouver from China wanted to go out to tell people about the persecution. However she often got lost. While asking strangers for directions, she took the opportunity to explain to Chinese people what Falun Dafa is and help them renounce their membership in the CCP.

She felt that people really want to learn the truth and felt the urgency of saving them. She reminded herself to talk to people with a kind and pure heart. When people refused to quit the CCP, she looked inward to see if her cultivation state was good.
