(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners in the Gaoping area in southern Taiwan held a one-day group study and experience sharing in Guoguang Laboratory School on November 7, 2014. It was a great opportunity for practitioners from the Greater Kaohsiung Area and Pingtung County to share their cultivation experiences and improve together.
Break-out Fa-study and discussion groups were held in the morning. Everyone gathered together in the afternoon to listen to six practitioners share their experiences.

Talking to Mainland Chinese at Tourist Sites
Mr. Li Dengke was one of the practitioners who read their experience sharing articles. He used to be sickly and relied on his medical insurance. Ever since he started practicing Falun Gong in 2002, he has been healthy, has had peace of mind, and has a new understanding of the meaning of life.
Every week Mr. Li and dozens of other practitioners rent a large bus to go to Cape Eluanbi to tell Chinese tourists about the persecution of Falun Gong. Most of the practitioners live over 100 kilometers away, so while they are on the bus, they study the Fa and send forth righteous thoughts.
They talk to the Chinese tourists there three days a week, rain or shine. Their bus is usually completely full. According to Mr. Li, “Most of us are elderly, but our determination and enthusiasm impress the Chinese tourists, who are startled by the facts about the persecution and often choose to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.”
The Power of Fa Study
Ms. Ni Meiyue, a retired schoolteacher, started practicing Falun Gong 10 years ago. At first she spent most of her time talking to Chinese tourists about the persecution when she first retired. Then, late last year, her father had late-stage cancer, and Ms. Ni had to go to the hospital every day instead of to the tourist sites. After her father passed away, she was exhausted both mentally and physically, and her ability to clarify the truth was seriously affected.
Ms. Ni was awakened by Master's Fa Teaching at the 2013 Greater New York Fa Conference. She made up her mind to study the Fa more every day. She said, “I took two or three Dafa books to study in a cafe near my home for six or seven hours every afternoon. I also used my smartphone to spread the facts of Falun Dafa and helped people quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.
"As time went on, I felt refreshed, as if my body had been renewed.” Ms. Ni has re-joined truth-clarification activities at tourist sites. No bad weather can stop her from offering salvation to sentient beings.
Breaking Through Tribulations at Work
Mr. Yang Yifan, a school principal who has worked in eduction for more than 20 years, shared his experience of breaking through a tribulation at work.
Principal Yang prided himself on his integrity and stressed the importance of teaching the value of virtue. However, someone with a hidden agenda brought false charges against him. He was sued, demoted, and investigated. Mr. Yang was shocked and saddened to have his reputation dragged through the mud.
Through Fa study, Mr. Yang came to understand that everything happens for a reason. Upgrading one's xinxing is what leads to true improvement. He followed Dafa's requirements and looked within unconditionally. After intensively studying the Fa, he calmed down, gathered himself together, and bravely faced the lawsuit.
Mr. Yang said, “After seven months of being investigated by different legal offices and in the courts, my name was cleared. I had a flood of emotions. Many times I broke down in tears in front of Master's portrait, begging Master to bless me with wisdom, rationality, and courage to face everything. It was Falun Dafa that helped me survive this miserable period in my life. Thank you, Master, for your boundless grace!”
