My first encounter with Falun Dafa was at the age of 31 in 2012. In a lifelike dream, I saw Master Li Hongzhi (the founder of Falun Dafa), and this experience made me feel a little overwhelmed.
In the dream, I saw a group of disciples around an Asian master, listening to his teachings. I…

In the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), no one knows exactly how many have been persecuted to death. Practitioners all over the world often hold candlelight vigils in front of Chinese embassies and consulates to commemorate fellow practitioners who have…
I’m a seaman from Bulgaria. I started practicing Falun Dafa about two years ago.
I had some issues with my neck and upper back before I began cultivating. For years I experienced pain starting from my back and then slowly expanding to my neck and evolving into severe headaches, for which I regularly took painkillers.…
Somewhere between life and breath
a silence that beckons few
whether by light or blink of eye
inner worlds beyond our view.
Treasures await an age no other could even dream, prophecies mere shortcomings to these. Bless each burden, each strident chorus for now. Do they not lead into the march where hearts and voices will soon praise this world again and all creation to come?
THE SONG BEFORE THE WORLD BEGUN
I am the whisper upon the water
the light behind the dawning sun
I am the tempest and the endless tide
the song before the world begun.
I am the dance that moves the atom
from seed to star entwined
I am the cradle and the cross to bear
by earth…
I am 72-years-old and live in a remote village. I have undergone many tribulations during my life. My family was landowners prior to the communist takeover of China, and we were well educated.
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) seized our land and other properties. We became penniless and lived a miserable life.
At school, I…
Moments of the miraculous
behind every flower unfolding
inside each colour and luminous form
beyond the charge of atoms
endless skies to fathomless oceans
awakening realms between still and storm.
If we could touch the sky
let innocence dance
across our days
beyond these horizons
with stars in our reach
and no clouds gathered grey.
Ignite the fire
inside every heart …
Compassion inside a falling tear
with expression pure of heart
come solemn eye and gentle hand
where bridging two oceans apart.
Here across the widest horizons
calling beyond our greatest fears
a face behind the…
Life has changed a lot for me in the past few years. To tell you more, I have to go back several years ago.
Lost in a Maze
I was a troublemaker in middle school. My teacher often called my mother to my school but I did not care much.
When discussing this at…
With the coming of spring
let the promise prevail
beyond these clouds
and bitter skies
from here to the firmament
as many a lotus bloom
soon a breath of calm
when the storm subsides.
Where the truth unfolds
in courage of heart
by a poison of lies
the world deceived no more
as the Party trembles
in its final hour
aeons awakening
immeasurable like no spring before.
