Calling to stop the 22 years of persecution of Falun Dafa

I am sure many of you have travelled to many giant Buddha site before. You may have paid respect to those Buddha statues by bowing or gifting incense. 

I usually look at what kind of gesture the Buddha statues are in. Obviously, in various meditation positions. But then again, not many people are aware of how meditation positions look like. 

So, let’s analyze what are the differences between Buddhist monks and Falun Dafa practitioners. 

Picture 1

1. An iconic sight in Japan, the Great Buddha of Kamakura Daibutsu dates back to 13th century. Look at how the Great Buddha seated with cross leg and both hands in Jia Yin 结印 position. 

Now, look at the Buddhist monk and Falun Dafa practitioners in this basic meditation position. All look identical, right? You can see in fact Falun Dafa practitioners sit in a beautiful full lotus position. See picture 1. 

Picture 2

2. Tian Tan Buddha Amoghasiddhi in Ngong Ping, Lantau Island, Hong Kong. I love this place! 💕 One of the sitting meditation exercises in Falun Dafa is identical with this giant Buddha’s gesture.  See picture 2. 

So, there is no difference from monks and buddhas seeking the path to enlightenment. Except Dafa practitioners are practicing in the society without being monks or nuns.  They take the spiritual path following the principles of Truthfullness, Compassion and Tolerance. 

Today is 7.20.  Calling to stop the 22 years of persecution. A day in 1999, the spiritual practice was target in China for their popularity. Anyone who dares to oppose, awaiting them are countless beating, detention, torture, harassment, forced labor, and organ harvesting. See How Did 100 Million People Become Targets? https://www.theepochtimes.com/infographic-beijings-22-year-long-persecution-of-falun-gong_3903708.html

Understand the truth and stand up for what’s right. Sign the petition to help STOP Organ harvesting. https://www.stoporganharvesting.org


#gordonramsay tried meditation to tame his notorious temper but he can’t sit still for even 5 minutes. 

It’s a norm for Falun Dafa practitioners to sit in meditation for 1 hour. 

If you think it’s easy, I challenge you to sit with your leg crossing in full lotus position. You will probably cry in pain in 10 minutes. Let me know after you done trying. 😅

Dinner. Stranger.

LAST NIGHT was MIL’s birthday. We went for a simple dinner at Mt. Kiara, a Taiwanese restaurant. Bb was excited to be out as usual, trying to show off how to operate his Bob the Builder’s bottle to uncle Jo, Bil. He has been sipping water from that bottle ever since daddy purchased it, which is good, no more bottles in public. He also created rapport with waiter and waitresses there. There was a fat uncle got so fond of him and present-ed him a chopstick holder. (Like that also can. Hah!) Bb showed it to me, it was in the shape of a Japanese koi fish. I told him to return it to uncle, Sri told me he returned but uncle insisted he kept it. UR! Okay! “Well, then you can keep it” I told him. Later, he came to me telling he was scared. I asked him why, he told me the BIG BIG uncle scary. Actually according to Sri, that uncle wanted to carry him, he got scared. Mil told me this - Once a stranger offer to carry bb, he wanted to go with stranger, mil threatened him that if he goes, he will ne

Do you give money to beggars?

As I lay flat on my Yoga mat, images of beggars on a damp street of the Friday Pasar malam flashing in my mind. A mother with a one-year-old child on her lap, he was drinking milk while another toddler sitting right beside her. She was digging her foot the time I saw her. Further up, there is another dark and skinny old man lying on a thin layer of cardboard. He put his palm together to form the prayer sign to passerby for sympathy. Beside him, it was packets of drink given by kind soul. I was going to give each of them a dollar. A gentle voice whispered to me. By the time I came back from all shopping, I left a 50 ringgit note and a one ringgit note. As I was nearer to the old man, I told bb to pass the money to the old man. He did, dropping the one ringgit in his plastic container. The old man shakes his hand hard to thank us. I feel so bad for the man. But then on a second thought, could he be a drug addict waiting for his fix? The mother again, I was not willing to give awa
