Believing in Master and Believing in the Fa Hong Fa in Darwin
By Darwin Western Practitioner
Greetings revered Master!
Greetings fellow practitioners.
I am from Darwin and am 69 years old. I started practicing Falun Dafa in 2002, and have been practicing continuously for 18 years. When I attend the Australian Fa conference every year, there’s a lot that I take away every time. Today, I would like to share with you how I have benefitted both physically and mentally after I obtaining the Fa under the care of Master, and how I have continuously clarified the truth in the centre of Darwin for more than ten years.
1. After obtaining the Fa, my temperament changed completely
I originally came from Turkey and I work as a Security Guard. I obtained Fa in Melbourne in 2002. From then on, I started practicing solidly.
In 2002, I heard about a group that was persecuted by the CCP. I thought, this practice must be very good if the Communist Party persecutes it. I started to search and I found an advertisement in the newspaper for free meditation classes at Flagstaff gardens in Melbourne. I spoke to a male practitioner there and I told him I wanted to learn. He said it was about “Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance” and I said that this is wonderful. Maybe because I had this thought, Master let me understand that Falun Gong is a very high level practice.
I started to learn the exercises right away. When I was being taught, I felt a tingling sensation in my fingers. I had previously done Yoga and lots of other practices but I never felt like this, it was so wonderful and unique. I made up my mind that I would cultivate in this practice only.
I kept coming back and I met another practitioner from Turkey who gave me the books Falun Gong and Zhuan Falun. I read the book once and then I read it 20 more times continuously. I started to distribute flyers and attended truth clarification activities. I also read all of Master’s other teachings.
Before practicing, I was a very angry and vengeful person. I was also intolerant of others and I would often fight with explosive bursts of anger. I had a lot of bad thoughts and would act according to those thoughts. I would always complain about things, and spent my days indulging in entertainment, going to nightclubs and spending too much money.
I became very different after practicing. Master fundamentally cleared up my thought karma. I became more tolerant and I regained control over my thoughts. I would Send righteous thoughts to eliminate any interference or thought karma. Whenever bad thoughts came, I would send forth righteous thoughts. I no longer go to nightclubs and get into fights anymore.
Falun Dafa gave me values beyond those of ordinary people. I now view things on the basis of the Fa, and whether things are in accordance with Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance, rather than on the basis of the human world’s selfishness.
Dafa taught me that when things start to going wrong, first look inside to see whether there is anything not quite right on my part. Do I have attachments, desires, or human thoughts and notions that have caused this problems? When I found the root cause of my conflict, I would eliminate it as soon as possible.
My righteous thoughts become more and more powerful as I continuously studied the Fa. If I suffer any physical symptoms or other misfortune, I understand that it is related to paying back karma or is retribution for previous wrongdoings. Nothing is coincidental. If I recognize any interference from the old forces or the evil, I immediately send strong righteous thoughts to eliminate it.
2. Spreading the Fa in Darwin City
I moved to Darwin in 2005, and had been the only practitioner there for many years. During this period, I have experienced many ups and downs. But with Master’s blessings, I have persisted until today, and that is because I thoroughly read the Fa every day. When I am at work I can read the Fa, because the nature of my work allows it. I read all of Master’s teachings and when I am finished, I start all over again. I have learnt to memorize some sections that I find really helpful. I feel very motivated after reading Master’s Fa, so I never feel discouraged.
I have a double-sided pull-up banner which is on permanent display at the entrance of a mall in the centre of Darwin, in a bustling area of town. One side is Falun Dafa introductory information, and the other side are the Law Whell and images of the five exercises. There are Government offices and hotels across the street, and many people can see the pull up banner. By thoroughly clarifying the truth, staff at the shopping mall is very supportive of me. I have been maintaining this Dafa stall and practice site alone for more than ten years.
I have a 3m Dafa introductory banner on my apartment balcony which has been on display for years from the second floor. In 2018, before I went overseas I thought should I take it down before I leave, but I took the chance and left it as it was. When I came back from holidays, the banner was intact. I am deeply grateful to Master, this is a miracle of Dafa.
I consider showing the exercises to people one of the best ways to introduce Dafa. I meditate beside the pull up banner almost every day, as long as I do not have to work long shifts or other engagements. I meditate mostly at noon because that is when it is most crowded, therefore more people can see it.
After completing a night security guard shift, in the morning I become very tired, sleepy and sometimes hungry. At these times, I do not want to meditate, but would rather stay home and sleep. However, I force myself to go to the mall to meditate. I tell myself it is not the time to slack off and indulge in comfort. But always after completing the meditation I feel terrific and energized, and not at all sleepy or tired. Thank you Master for your blessing.
When I do the meditation sometimes people imitate the exercise movements or sit by me and meditate for a while, then go to work. Occasionally, they ask me to show them the exercises. After briefly mentioning the Fa and the books to read, I show them the exercises and give them some materials to read.
Many people take a photo of the Falun emblem and exercise instructions and ask me about the Falun symbol and its relation to Hitler’s swastika. Some people ask what Falun Dafa is. I mostly focus on the Fa and how practitioners benefit from Dafa, but also discuss the books to read and exercise videos in the internet. I try not to talk from too high of a level as that may drive people away, Master mentions this.
Occasionally, I set up Falun Dafa stalls at the local open-air markets to distribute flyers and collect signatures. I introduce Dafa to predestined people, and talk about the persecution and forced organ harvesting. I set up a Falun Dafa stall at Mindil Beach market every Sunday, because it is the biggest market in Darwin and many tourists come.
I consider Charles Darwin University a very important place to clarify the truth, because it is a leading mainstream force in society. Every semester, I put up plenty of Falun Dafa and forced organ harvesting posters on the notice boards. I also distribute flyers and collect signatures, leaving some flyers and Minghui magazines in various places at the university.
Hospitals are also crowded and a good place to introduce Falun Dafa to society. I distribute flyers, put up posters on the public notice boards and leave Dafa materials every several months. I focus on the forced organ harvesting materials for the doctors, nurses and other staff.
3. Eliminate interference and persist in spreading the Fa
There were some people from a group of missionaries who would often try to interfere with the Falun Dafa stall. While I meditated, they removed all the flyers and my table, damaged and stole the posters, leaving them in the rubbish area. Every time, I would just retrieved the posters, clean them up and put them back in the mall.
They also tried to steal the large banner, trying to take it down with a cherry picker. I told that if they touched it, I would sue them, after that they never attempt again.
I started to send strong righteous thoughts more frequently to disintegrate the evil factors behind these people. One day, the group came again and to make trouble. I chased one of them down and asked them what they were doing. I spoke to him calmly. I told him that we are allowed freedom of expression and human rights. I told him that I volunteer to benefit other people because I have benefitted so much from Falun Gong. They then stopped interfering.
I know that it was Master who stopped them. I enlightened that we must maintain strong righteous thoughts at all the times. This is an important time and we must keep strong and diligent because Fa Rectification is moving forward so quickly.
I went to the local Chinese community centre shortly after I moved to Darwin. I went there to distribute flyers and put magazines on every table. They watched me intently. Many Chinese people took the flyers to read. One man in charge took the flyer as well.
After I went to the centre, I got a lot of phones calls to my landline with no one on the other end of the line. They would not answer when I said hello and I know that the CCP were trying to intimidate me. So I rang the telephone company for the caller’s phone number, and I rang him back saying, “You rang me, but you didn’t say anything, can I help you? I can answer any of your questions.” He said, “That’s all right, that’s all right,” and he never called again. I never received any more intimidating calls after that.
There are many indigenous people in Darwin, and they were vandalizing things in the beginning, but have become very respectful toward me and respectful toward Dafa. Sometimes they come to sit with me and imitate me in the meditation.
4. Thanks to Master for His care
I attend the Australian Fa Hui every year, and I have only attended one overseas Fa Hui, that was the International Fa Conference in Washington DC in 2018. I saw Master and listened to Master’s teaching in person, which is still fresh in my mind. In fact, Master is always taking care of me.
Once, I suddenly got up with a very runny nose, and I was wondering what should I do during the meditation. I made up my mind – it is not my problem, as whatever happens, happens, so I just took more tissues with me. I started the exercises at the mall. Surprisingly, the runny nose stopped immediately and did not come back again after that. I enlightened that the old forces were trying to stop me from meditating, but they failed and gave up interfering with me.
At midnight one evening, my knee suddenly became badly inflamed. It was red, swollen and painful and I found it difficult to bend. This was obviously interference from the old forces. I increased my righteous thoughts to eliminate the interference. I had always walked the 30 minute journey from home to work, and I could not walk anymore so had to take a taxi to work for 2 days. The supervisor insisted that he send me to the hospital, and give me a couple of days off, but I declined.
As I sat for righteous thoughts, I could barely sit in half lotus as I was in so much pain. Then I decided to try putting my legs in full lotus. I disregarded the intense pain and sat in full lotus as I sent forth righteous thoughts. The pain decreased and eventually stopped. Surprisingly, I noticed suddenly that all the inflammation was gone, and the interference and karma eliminated. The people at work were all surprised when they saw me walking around again like before.
“In Fa Teaching at the 2015 West Coast Fa Conference.” Master said: “Some of our practitioners are struggling with passing the tests of sickness karma. Don’t think that it’s necessarily something major [that causes that]. You might think that you haven’t done anything majorly wrong, and that you are very firm in your faith in the Fa. However, you shouldn’t treat the little issues you have like they are nothing. The evil will seize upon any gaps. Many practitioners have even passed away on account of little things; it really was due to something very minor. That’s because cultivation is something serious, and requires having no gaps. If for a long time you haven’t dealt with those things through cultivation, small as they may be, if you haven’t taken them seriously for a prolonged period of time, then it is a big issue. Many people have passed away on account of such things. The old forces wouldn’t venture to directly persecute Dafa disciples at present—none of the larger beings that assume a form would venture to do that. Then what sorts of things are doing that now? Things like worms, bugs, bacteria, and all kinds of foul things like that. Sending righteous thoughts is extremely effective in these cases! They are annihilated in large batches. But there are a lot of them, given how big this cosmos is; and the cosmos consists of many layers. So after you have wiped these things out, shortly after, before long, they might infiltrate again, and you need to eliminate them again. So you need to keep sending righteous thoughts like this, and persist with it for some time, before you will see obvious results. Don’t lose confidence just because, after feeling good following a while of sending righteous thoughts, things don’t seem to go well again. I can tell you that they are using this approach to wear you down—to whittle away at your strong sense of conviction. So you need to be alert to these things.”
By breaking through these sickness karma tests, I deeply realize the importance of keeping righteous thoughts and strengthening sending righteous thoughts at all times.
Next I would like to share my experience of Master’s care during one of my trips to spread the Fa.
One day, I ventured to a faraway suburb on the bus and I mailboxes some flyers all day and all evening, finishing the suburb of Zukkoli. There were no buses because it was too late, but there was still one hour before the last departure from Palmerston to Darwin. I thought that I could walk to the interchange for 1 hour down the bushy country road instead. I realized that I could not walk that distance in 1 hour as it was too far, so I started running. When I arrived at the bus interchange, I was surprised that the bus was still there with the driver was talking to a security guard, despite the bus already being a couple minutes late.
I waved my hand to the security guard who noticed me running to the bus, and he informed the driver who then unexpectedly drove off. The security guard told me he let the driver know, and he did not know why the driver suddenly left.
Although I was out of breath, I did not get angry or annoyed, and stayed calm, thinking that it was already late, so he had to leave. I asked about alternative transport options. Suddenly another bus stopped by and the driver yelled “Get on the bus, the Darwin bus is waiting for you at the next bus stop”.
It was really waiting for me, and eventually I arrived in Darwin late that night. I enlightened that compassionate Master set a few xinxing tests for me along the way.
5. Spreading the Fa overseas
I once went back to Turkey, introducing Dafa to people in the third largest city and a few other cities with populations of approximately 500,000. This was the very first opportunity for these local people to learn about Dafa.
The first time I spread the Fa while on holidays in Turkey was in 2013. Nobody had previously introduced Dafa to people in Izmir, the third largest city in Turkey. I felt sad for them and then compelled to introduce Dafa. I stayed in Izmir for 4 months and distributed around 40,000 flyers. On Sundays, I did the exercises at a crowded park by the sea, in front of a big cafe. If anybody was interested, I would show them the exercises. Some people were genuinely interested, and read Zhuan Falun too. I put up posters on public notice boards and set up Dafa stalls in markets. Overall people were very receptive and friendly.
In 2018, I went to Turkey for a 3.5 month holiday, where I introduced Dafa for the first time, distributing around 16,000 flyers in some mid-sized cities that are religiously conservative. I demonstrated the exercises too. Mostly people were receptive, but some people showed a negative attitude and rejected the flyer. They would argue on the grounds of religion and I was sometimes threatened. I would handle it with compassion, focus on the health benefits, and let them know Falun Dafa was not the same as the Buddhist religion; I resolved these issues peacefully. I always keep up with sending strong righteous thoughts to purge the interferences.
I visited all businesses and I gave the flyer to the shop owners. Once, a store manager took the flyer and offered me a piece of delicious baklava, insisting, I take it as a good will gesture.
Spreading the Fa for the first time in these cities was a very exciting and joyful process, and some of those cities now have permanent exercise sites.
The above are my experiences of spreading the Fa and cultivating over the past several years. Please kindly point out anything that is not in line with the Fa.
Thank you benevolent Master!
Thank you fellow practitioners.

信师信法在达尔文洪法的修炼体悟
文：达尔文西人大法弟子
尊敬的师父好！
各位同修大家好。
我来自达尔文，今年六十九岁。修炼大法已经十八年了。年年参加澳洲法会，每次都收获很大。在此想和大家交流一下自己得法后身心升华的体验，特别是在师尊的呵护下，坚持在达尔文市中心洪法十多年的修炼历程。
一、得法后性情全变
我来自土耳其，目前在达尔文一家公司担任保安。二零零二年在墨尔本得法，从此开始坚定实修。
二零零二年，我听说在中国有个团体被中共迫害。我想，如果遭到了中共的迫害，那这种功法一定非常好。于是我开始寻找，发现了一份报纸上的广告——在墨尔本市中心的弗拉格斯塔夫公园（Flagstaff gardens）有免费的打坐炼功点。我去了之后，找到一位负责教功的男士法轮功学员，告诉他自己想学，他说，法轮功基于“真善忍”原则，我立刻回应，这真是太好了。也许是我这一念出来后，师父让我即刻明白，法轮功是一种高层次的功法。
我立即开始学功。过程中，我的手指有刺痛感觉。当时，我已经学了很长一段时间的瑜伽以及其它很多打坐的方法，但我从来没有体验过如此强烈的感受，很奇妙，很与众不同。于是下决心学炼法轮功，再也不学其它的了。
我开始每周都去学炼，一位同样来自土耳其的同修给了我宝书《转法轮》和《法轮功》。我读了一遍《转法轮》后，立即不间断的连续读了二十多遍。从此我开始发单张并参加洪法和讲真相活动。我也系统的学习师尊在各地的讲法。
修炼前，脾气非常不好，肚量很小易怒，一点事情都会和别人发生争执或打斗，所以常常处在争斗漩涡中。而且非常容易让负面思维控制我的行为，怨天尤人，经常去夜店，沉迷于消遣活动，花了很多钱。
修炼后，我的性情完全变了。师父帮我把思想业从根本上清理了。从此变得宽容，能控制自己的思想，一有坏念头冒出来，我能立即发正念将其清除。我不再去夜店，也不再想和任何人打架了。
大法给予我超越常人的价值观。我常常检视对于事物的评判和观点是否符合法，做的事情是否符合“真善忍”，而不是基于世人的自私自利的想法。
大法教导我，当一件事向错误的方向发展的时候，首先找自己，是否是自己这边有任何不对的地方。是否自己有执着、不好的欲望、人心或者观念导致这些矛盾的发生？当我找到产生矛盾的根源后，尽可能快的清除它们。
通过不断学法，正念在不断增强。如果出现疾病或者磨难，我知道这是在偿还以前欠下的罪业。没有任何事情是偶然的。如果发现任何来自旧势力或邪恶的干扰，我立即发正念铲除。
二、达尔文市中心洪法
二零零五年我搬到达尔文，常年就我一个学员。期间经历了很多风风雨雨，在师尊的加持下，坚持到现在。我觉得最重要的原因，就是每天大量的学法。因为工作关系，我有很多时间，我就充分利用这个便利学法。我不断的重复学师尊的各地讲法，所有的著作都从头到尾通读，如此往复。有些段落都能背下来，我感到非常有帮助。从师父的法中，我受到激励，所以从来没有觉得泄气。
我有一个两面立式条幅（Pullup Banner），一天二十四小时，一周七天摆放在达尔文市中心购物中心的入口处，这是最繁华热闹的地段，一面是法轮大法简介，一面是法轮图形和五套功法的图示。在马路的对面，有很多政府的办公室和酒店，很多人都能看到这个条幅。通过讲真相，购物中心的工作人员都非常支持我。这个大法摊位和炼功点我一个人坚持了十多年。
我还有一个三米长的介绍大法的横幅，悬挂在我所住的公寓楼的二楼阳台外墙。二零一八年出国前，曾想是否应该把横幅取下来。但我还是决定不取下来。就这样如往常一样挂着。度假回来，横幅完好如初。我深深感恩师尊，这是大法的神迹啊。
我觉得展示功法是向民众介绍大法的最好方式之一。所以只有时间允许，比如在我不用加班或有突发事件的时候，我几乎每天都在横幅旁边打坐。通常都是中午最热闹的时候，所以有更多的人能看到我。
在做保安、工作了一夜后，在早上我会感到很劳累，困倦，有时候还很饿，常常想放弃打坐，直接回家休息。但我每次都强迫自己去市中心的购物商场入口打坐。我对自己说，现在没有时间懈怠或执着于安逸舒适的生活。然而，每次打坐后，我都感到非常好，浑身充满能量，不再感到困倦或劳累。感激师尊的加持。
在我打坐期间，有时人们会坐在我旁边，模仿我的动作，打一会坐，再回去上班。有时候，他们会让我教他们动作。这时我会简单介绍大法，大法的主要著作，给他们演示五套功法，最后给他们真相资料便于阅读。
在市中心购物的很多人都会对法轮图形和功法介绍的内容拍照，并询问法轮的含义以及与希特勒的万字符有什么关系，也有些人问什么是“Falun Dafa”（法轮大法）。我通常会注重介绍法理，修炼人如何受益，还有需要阅读的师尊的著作，以及如何在网上找到教功录像。我尽量避免讲的太高把人推远了，因为师尊说过不能讲太高这方面的法理。
有时，我会在当地户外集市上设立大法真相摊位，给市民发真相传单并征集反迫害的签名。向有缘的人介绍大法，反迫害真相和活摘器官的罪恶。每周，我都到明迪尔海滨（Mindil Beach）市集设立大法真相摊位，因为这里游客很多，也是达尔文最大的集市。
我认为查尔斯・达尔文大学是非常重要的地点，是主流社会的引领文化潮流的地方。每个学期，我都会在每个公告栏张贴介绍大法和讲述活摘器官真相的海报，放置足够数量的法轮功真相传单。我也会去校园发真相传单并征签。在校区的不同地方，摆放明慧特刊杂志和真相传单。
医院通常都有很多人，也是向社区介绍大法的好地方。我在各大医院发真相传单，在公告栏贴海报，每隔几个月，放置大法的资料。特别是给医生、护士和医院员工发放很多有关活摘的资料。
三、排除干扰坚持洪法
达尔文某个团体的一些传教的人，经常试图干扰大法摊位。他们在我打坐时拿走所有传单和我的桌子，破坏了海报并偷走，然后把这些物品丢弃在收集垃圾的地方，他们经常这样做。我每次都得从垃圾场旁边取回海报，将其清理干净，然后放回商场门口。
那个大的可伸缩条幅，这群人也试图偷走它。有一次，甚至开来一辆小型的起重机试图压坏条幅。我严厉的告诉他们：如果你们敢碰条幅，我就起诉你们。从此以后他们再也不试图破坏横幅了。
我开始增加发正念的次数，解体这些人背后的邪恶因素。当他们再来捣乱的时候，我追着他们中的一个问他，为什么这么做，接下来我平静的和他交谈，告诉他我们有自由表达的权利和人权，我做这些都是义务，就是希望自己受益后也能让其他更多的人受益。从此以后，他们再也不来干扰了。
我知道是师尊阻止了他们。
同时，我悟到，我们必须随时都保持强大的正念，并精進实修不怠，因为师尊正法正在突飞猛進的推進着。
我搬到达尔文后不久，曾去当地的华人社团去洪法，发单张，给屋内每个桌子放一份杂志，很多人一直注视着我，很多华人都拿传单来读，该社团的一个负责人也接受了单张。
但随后我就接到很多对方不讲话的来电，我说“你好”，对方也不说话。我知道这是中共在背后想恐吓我。于是我给电话公司打电话，要到了对方的号码，我打回去，告诉对方：“你给我打电话，但是却不说话，我能帮你什么吗？我可以回答你的任何问题。”对方说：“没事、没事。”之后，他没有再来的话。我也再没有收到此类骚扰电话。
本地有许多澳洲原住民，他们一开始也试图捣乱，但日子长了，他们对大法非常敬畏，对我也非常尊敬，有时候，他们会坐在我旁边，模仿我的动作和我一起打坐。
四、感恩师尊呵护
我每年都参加澳洲法会，只参加过一次海外的法会，就是二零一八年华盛顿DC的国际法会，见到了师尊，亲耳聆听师尊讲法，记忆犹新。其实，师父随时都在呵护着弟子。
有一次，我忽然开始流鼻涕，非常严重。我很犹豫打坐的时候怎么办。我横下心，流就流吧，这不是我有问题，所以我准备了很多面巾纸随身带着。当我开始在购物中心入口炼功时，奇迹般的，鼻涕马上就不流了。而且之后也再没有流。我悟到，旧势力试图阻止我打坐，但他们失败了。最后放弃干扰我。
有一天半夜，我的膝盖突然发炎，看起来发红、肿痛，不能自如的弯曲。这显然是旧势力的干扰。因此，我增加了发正念的时间以清除干扰。我通常是走路从家里步行三十分钟去上班，当天我走不动，不得不打车去上班，连续两天之后，我的主管坚持要送我去医院，并给我几天病假让我休息，但我拒绝了。
我开始发正念，因为剧烈的疼痛导致我无法单盘。然后我想，也许双盘能行，我忍住剧烈的疼痛把双盘盘上，然后发出非常强大的正念。这时，疼痛开始减轻并停止。是真令人惊喜，我注意到炎症突然消失了，干扰和业力全部消除了。当同事们突然看到我又像以前一样走来走去的时候，都感到非常惊讶。
师尊在讲法中开示：“我们有些学员在病业关上走不过来。你不要往大处想。你说我没什么大错误啊，对法很坚定啊。可是哪，你不要把那些小事不当回事。邪恶会钻空子的，很多学员因为小事甚至于走了，也真都是因为非常小的事。因为修炼是严肃的，是无漏的，你在那些事情长期都没修过，虽然小，你长期都没重视过，那就是事了，所以很多人是因为这个走的。现在迫害大法弟子的，旧势力不敢直接干，那些个有形的大的生命都不敢干。现在干的都是什么东西啊？都是虫子之类的，细菌乱七八糟，都是这些东西。发正念是非常管用的！一灭成片成片的就灭掉了，可是它很多，宇宙多大啊，这个东西，而且宇宙的层次很多，你灭完了，不一会，时间不长，它又渗透过来，它又来，你再灭。就是不断的这样发正念，要坚持一段时间，才能够明显见效。不要觉的发完正念了，感觉好一阵，又不行了，你就失去信心了。我告诉你，它们就是用这个办法在耗你，耗你的坚定信念，大家要注意这些事。”[1]
通过几次闯病业关，我深切体会到时刻保持正念和加强发正念的重要。
下面交流一个洪法过程中师尊呵护的经历。
有一次，我做公交大巴去了很远的镇子往居民家中的信箱投真相传单。我发了整整一个白天和傍晚，直到发完一个名叫祖科利（Zukkoli）的小镇。因为太晚已经没有公交车了，但距离从中转站帕默斯顿（Palmerston）到达尔文的最后一班的时间还有一小时。我觉得我能在一小时内通过这个灌木丛中的小路从小镇走到中转站。但开始走起来之后我就意识到，一个小时不可能到达，距离太远了。于是我开始跑，当我跑到中转站的时候，看到最后一趟大巴的司机正在和保安聊天，当时大巴已经晚点几分钟了。我向保安挥手，他也看到我正向大巴跑过来，保安向司机示意有乘客赶来，但大巴径直开走了。后来保安告诉我，他已经通知了司机，但他也不清楚为什么司机不理睬他突然就开走了。
虽然气喘嘘嘘，但我当时没有生气，保持平静，我想本来就晚了，所以司机才离开了。于是我开始询问其它的返程交通。突然，另外一辆大巴停在我面前，司机对我喊：“快上车，去达尔文的大巴在下一站等你呢。”的确有一辆去达尔文的大巴在等我，于是当晚我顺利回到了达尔文。
我悟到，慈悲的师尊在路途上给我设了几道心性关。
五、海外洪法
我曾经回到土耳其，在土耳其第三大城市以及几个五十万人口的城市中洪法，这也是当地民众第一次听闻大法。
首次利用假期在土耳其洪法，是二零一三年。之前，还从没有当地同修在这个土耳其第三大城市伊兹密尔（Izmir）洪法。我感到很失望也觉得很急迫。我在伊兹密尔住了四个月，发了近四万张法轮功单张。在周日，我在一个海边的热闹公园的大型咖啡店前炼功。遇到感兴趣的人，我就教功。的确有些真正感兴趣的人阅读了《转法轮》。我把海报贴在公告栏，在集市上设立大法摊位。总的来说人们都很接受，对我很友好。
二零一八年，我在土耳其度假三个半月，在几个万人口、有宗教传统的城市第一次介绍大法，发了大约一万六千张法轮功传单，也展示功法。大多数民众都能接受认可，但也有很抵触的，拒绝接受单张，还以宗教的理论和我辩论，有时还威胁我。面对这种情况，我每次都是以慈悲应对，着重讲述法轮功祛病健身的效果，而不涉及佛家或宗教的内容，问题都能和平解决。同时我也持续发出强大的正念，清除干扰。
期间我挨家挨户访问商家，给店主送单张。有一次一家店的老板坚持要给我一块美味的土耳其传统糕点巴卡拉（baklava），并坚持我收下，已表达良好意愿。
在这些城市首次洪法，是非常激动和开心的经历。现在其中有些城市已经建立了永久的炼功点。
以上是我多年洪法和修炼的体悟，不当之处请同修慈悲指正。
谢谢慈悲伟大的师尊！
谢谢同修。
