(Minghui.org) I have practiced Falun Dafa for almost 20 years. I used to rarely read the Minghui website using the excuse of “being too busy,” and I felt that I should spend any free time I had studying the Fa or working on truth-clarification projects. I also had a notion that since I was in New York with so many other practitioners around, my in-person interactions would be more useful than reading Minghui.

About six years ago, I went through a period of being very sleepy while driving home from work. I usually listened to Master Li’s Guangzhou lectures, but eventually found that I couldn’t focus at all. I couldn’t stand ordinary radio stations, so I wondered if there was some better way I could spend my time and avoid falling asleep.

I had the idea to use a screen reader app on my smartphone to play Minghui sharing articles in my car. I paid a few dollars to buy an enhanced voice that sounded somewhat natural. This was at the time of a China Fahui on Minghui. It was amazing! I remember the first night I tried it, I was in tears the whole way home. Those sharing articles gave me a huge boost in my cultivation, and I never again had a sleepy drive home.

To this day, I continue to listen to Minghui sharing articles on my smartphone. No matter how busy I am, I can always fit in three to five articles per day. My commute eventually changed to taking the train into the city. Now I listen to articles while walking 20 to 40 minutes every day. On weekends, when driving my kids around, I play sharing articles from young practitioners. This has been very beneficial for my kids, who normally wouldn't read Minghui on their own.

About two months ago, I noticed that no matter what type of article I listen to, it touches me deeply. Every day, there is always something that boosts my cultivation. Usually, it’s other practitioners’ pure motivation for saving sentient being or ideas on how to do the three things better. Especially in this past year, the articles have focused a lot on the topic of “looking within unconditionally,” which has helped me expose many hidden attachments.

Since I tend to be lackadaisical when it comes to digging for attachments, this process has become a significant factor in my cultivation. Occasionally there are sharings that help me find a way to eliminate an attachment. Several years ago, a Minghui sharing article helped me finally eliminate my attachment to lust that I had struggled with for 15 years.

Minghui sharing articles seem to immediately bring out my enlightened side, and everything in my cultivation path makes sense. It doesn’t matter if they are from veteran, beginner, or young practitioners, nor does the type of sharing matter. It’s almost as if every day Minghui connects me with the “one body” of practitioners, and my role as a particle of Dafa becomes clear.
