[Minghui Net] On April 11, 2001, around 9 p.m., policemen surrounded our room. One practitioner went out first and got arrested on the road. Because the policemen broke through the door, we did not have a chance to deal with some things and got arrested. At that time, we had a printing press, printer, computer, flyers, and discs clarifying the truth of the self-immolation incident. The policemen took the five of us to the car with all the others things they found there. Facing the evil, we all felt calm, recited Lun Yu (article by Teacher) by heart and thought about how to "suffocate the evil." I told another practitioner, "We should definitely go once we have a chance."
That night, the five of us were sent to the police station. Then the policemen separated us and interrogated each of us individually. One policeman took me to a room. I ignored him and recited Lun Yu by heart. I told Teacher in my heart, "Teacher, if this is a home for demons, I will try to eliminate them." In my heart, I was thinking about eliminating evil and suffocating evil. No matter whether he appeared to be a ferocious or hypocritical policeman, he could not reach his purpose. I told him with a smile that I did nothing wrong. What I was doing would benefit our people, so that it was not a pity even if I died for it. On the contrary, the time was coming when the man who would feel regretful would be him, not me.
When I was interrogated again, two officials came in. They looked at me knowingly; obviously, they thought they had caught a big fish. They hypocritically smiled and said that they wanted to communicate with me. They intentionally revealed my real identity. I thought, "It would not be useful even if you obtained more information. Whatever you know about me, I am not afraid of you." Then I began to recite Lun Yu. Holding my status ID, they asked me why I had a fake ID. I told them, "You forced me to do that."
I always recited Fa, remembering "The Fa can reveal all attachments; the Fa can eradicate all evil; the Fa can expose and dispel all lies; and the Fa can strengthen righteous thoughts" (from Deter Interference). Finally, they had no success and had to go. Then I was put into a cell. On the second day, two practitioners got arrested because they went to the place where we used to work. I felt sorry for them. They should not be here. (Here, I want to remind other practitioners: if you cannot call the person that you want to see before you go, don't go there casually.)
I remembered that Teacher said, "Everything that Dafa disciples do at present is resisting the persecution of Dafa and its disciples" (from Persons in Charge of the European Fa Conference and All Attendees). We don't acknowledge the old force's arrangements. We should break through it. Then I waited for the chance for us to leave that would be arranged by the Teacher. I told the female practitioner who was locked outside that we must use our righteous minds and leave. She looked at me with an understanding eye. Then we were forced to be photographed. I thought it would be in vain even if they took our pictures. I was not an everyday person. Teacher told us, "Dafa can rectify the universe. So, it certainly has the Fa's power to repress evil, eliminate disorder, harmonize everything, and remain invincible" (from Definitive Conclusion). So we definitely could go out.
In the evening, a policeman brought in a 6 or 7-year old child who got lost. The child cried and wanted to go home after the policeman asked him some questions. He ran to the gate when he cried. The guard had to take him back. I thought it was not a coincidence. The child still continuously cried, so the guard put him into a room and closed the door. But we still could hear the child crying. Now, the chance to leave was coming. The other guard went to the bathroom. There was no one on the way to the gate. I told the practitioner who was locked outside that she should break free from the handcuffs. At the beginning, she could not do it, and then she said to Teacher, "Help me." Her hands suddenly slid out from the handcuffs. Then she opened the iron door for me. We walked to the gate with hands together. There was a policeman on duty who was playing a game in the room beside the gate, but he didn't see us and continued to play the game. We ran out of the gate until we could not run any more. Then we took a taxi. After a while, we told him that we were Falun Gong practitioners. He let us go without asking for money.
Finally, we went back to some practitioner's home.
The biggest lesson we learned this time is that, whatever kind of dangerous situation we are in, we only need to put our hearts on the Fa, use righteous thoughts; then we can go whenever we want. After I got arrested, I never thought about being condemned or persecuted. Teacher doesn't acknowledge the so-called examination and persecution caused by the old forces, so I won't acknowledge them either. All of these are not the things I should face, not the barriers I should overcome. I give all my things to Teacher. Teacher will arrange everything for me. We lost too much this time. It is because we still have loopholes that were used by the evil forces. We must look inside and learn from this experience so that we can clarify the truth and expose the evil better in the future.
