[Northwest China] Dafa Practitioners Hold an Experience Sharing Meeting to Commemorate the Two-Year Anniversary of "July 20th"

In northwest China, some Dafa practitioners from a city held an experience sharing meeting to commemorate the two-year anniversary of "July 20^th." In this special meeting, practitioners focused on how to improve further within the Fa, how to maintain a pure heart when sending forth righteous thoughts and how to exert the power of righteous thoughts. They also focused on how to help practitioners who have fallen behind and how to offer salvation to sentient beings. The meeting also discussed the relationship between Fa-rectification and personal cultivation, and the difference between having a fear mentality and applying wisdom when doing things. After the meeting, most practitioners felt their xinxing (heart or mind nature) had been upgraded collectively.

[Wuhan City, Hubei Province] Dafa Practitioners in Jiangxia District of Wuhan City Resist Vicious Forces with Righteous Thoughts

Around 11pm on July 20, 2001, over 10 policemen from the Jiangxia District Police Office broke into Dafa practitioner Wang Xia's home and ransacked it. Wang Xiao spoke loudly, "Kind-hearted people, please come and see how police persecute Falun Gong practitioners. Good is rewarded with good, evil is met with evil!" The neighbors followed her voice and came to her home. The policemen were frightened and pleaded with her, "Lower your voice." A vicious policeman screamed at her, "I'll let you wait and see how I get the retribution!" The practitioner then sent forth the righteous thought, "The Fa rectifies Heaven and Earth, immediate retribution in this lifetime." When the policemen went downstairs, their flashlight suddenly went off. The policeman who screamed at her sprained his ankle. This frightened the policemen. No one dared to talk. Someone who witnessed the incident from outside the door said, "Falun Dafa is good." In the end, the discouraged policemen left.

[Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province] Betrayer who "Enlightened" Along an Evil Path Suffers Stroke after Verbally Abusing Dafa

Many practitioners are illegally detained in the brainwashing class held in the Haizhu District Welfare Institute of Guangzhou City. Because these Dafa practitioners are very determined to practice Dafa, the vicious officials invited a betrayer, Zhang Anmei, who had "enlightened" along an evil path, to help them brainwash the practitioners. But they failed again. Finally, she tore off her hypocritical mask and shouted and threatened the Dafa practitioners. Soon afterwards, she suffered a stroke and fell to the ground. Her four limbs were shivering. She was then hospitalized.

The retribution that the vicious accomplice Zhang Anmei received strongly suppressed the vicious people. Now the other accomplices are scared and only "work" passively.

[Beijing] No One Attends the Slanderous Exhibition Held in the Military Museum

I am an employee at an institute in Beijing. At 9am this morning, our institute bought the tickets and organized all employees at work to go see the exhibition slandering Falun Gong held in the Military Museum. Up until 10am, no one wanted to go. They all refused, giving various reasons not to go. In the end, only 2 leaders and a driver went to the exhibition.

However, on the TV news broadcast that evening, it claimed, "Tickets for the next several days have been sold out. Many people have bought the tickets themselves to see the exhibition." The news showed the old face of He Zuoxiu, an "academician" with no research achievements who only pursued political interests, and merely some deceived students. It seemed that the TV news program gave the opposite information of what really happened.

[Baicheng City, Jilin Province] Dafa Practitioner Has to Leave Home Before his Wedding Ceremony

Recently, following the orders of human rights scoundrel Jiang Zemin, some vicious policemen went to harass Dafa practitioners in their homes many times. Now some practitioners have had to leave their homes and become homeless. Twenty-six years old male practitioner Chen Weizhe, an employee in the Baicheng City Telecommunications Company, had planned to get married on July 28, 2001. However, the vicious police from Baicheng City Haiming Police Office harassed him and his family in his home many times. On July 23, 2001, the local police and several ruffians tried to take him to a police station in order to force him to give up his practice of Falun Dafa. He firmly refused. He had to leave home afterwards, becoming a homeless person before his wedding ceremony.

We hereby hope that all kind-hearted people recognize the vicious nature of human rights scoundrel Jiang Zemin and help those Dafa practitioners being persecuted.

[Shanghai] Shanghai City Library Illegally Holds a Dafa-Slandering Exhibition

Between July 27 and August 8, 2001, Shanghai City Library is holding a large-scale exhibition with a lot of materials defaming Falun Dafa. Hopefully, all Dafa disciples can send out their righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil and to save people.

[Cangzhou City, Hebei Province] Cangzhou City Police Kidnap Falun Dafa Practitioner Yang Quanli

On the afternoon of July 29, 2001, about six policemen from the Shuiyuesi Police Station in Cangzhou City of Hebei Province went to Falun Dafa practitioner Yang Quanli's home. They handcuffed and forced him into a police car. One policeman choked Yang's neck and would not allow him to talk.

[Zhengzhou City, Henan Province] Baimiao Labor Camp Causes Human Tragedy: A Two-Year-Old Child Can No Longer Recognize His Own Father

Many Falun Dafa practitioners detained in the Baimiao Labor Camp in Zhengzhou City were denied their legal right of their monthly meeting with their families, because they still firmly practiced Falun Dafa. For 4 months already, one 60-year-old practitioner was not allowed to see her husband who was detained there. Another illegally detained practitioner has a 21-month-old child but the Camp still did not permit his child to see him. Another practitioner has been detained for 6 months already and his 2-year-old child can no longer recognize him. One other practitioner has been detained since his child was only 5 months old. These kids are all in need of their father's care. However, policemen in the Camp told practitioners' families, "Let them [practitioners] write a guarantee statement to give up practicing Falun Gong and tell lies, and then they can be released." They also said, "If you practice the exercises at home, nobody will know. Telling the truth is not popular nowadays. If you tell the truth, you will never be able to do anything." This is today's China, which is called "The best period of human rights in Chinese history" by Jiang Zemin.

According to some information, Baimiao Labor Camp has now detained about 40 male Dafa practitioners. Most of them are still firmly practicing Falun Dafa. Vicious brainwashing could never change Dafa disciples' steadfast faith in Falun Dafa.

[Qingdao City, Shangdong Province] Police Kidnap Seven to Eight Dafa Practitioners in Jimo County; It is Uncertain Whether They are Dead or Alive

Jimo County Police illegally captured 7 to 8 Dafa practitioners including Li Deming from Jimo County, Qingdao City. Among them was Dafa practitioner Jiang Jing from Chengyang County, Qingdao City, who was once illegally held and tortured at a mental hospital. Her case was reported on Clearwisdom.net. It is uncertain whether these practitioners are dead or alive. Please pay attention to this matter.

[Wuhan City, Hubei Province] Gangsters who Stand Against "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance" in Dongxihu District of Wuhan City are very Panic-Stricken

On July 8, 2001, the "610" office [an office specializing in persecuting Falun Gong practitioners; 6.10 refers to June 10^th, 1999, when this office was set up] in Dongxihu District of Wuhan City transferred 3 Dafa practitioners being illegally held at a brainwashing class to another location. The whole transfer process was carried out in a horrible atmosphere. There were soldiers carrying loaded rifles and acting as if they were on guard for all possible dangers.

On July 19, in order to prevent Dafa practitioners from posting banners, the authorities from Dongxihu District of Wuhan City assigned a large number of forces to guard the district government compound for a whole night. This has shown that the vicious gangsters are panic-stricken.

According to an insider, the lawless officials of Dongxihu District have already spent more than a million Yuan to persecute Falun Gong. The proportion of so-called brainwashing class "assistants" and Dafa practitioners sometimes reached 4:1. Those people are paid everyday with an extra 20-yuan allowance in addition to a 20-30 yuan subsidy. At present, there are lots of unemployed workers and peasants who have lost their jobs; the lands lie wasted, and school age children cannot afford to go to school in Dongxihu District. Why didn't the government spend the money on helping the poor instead of persecuting kind-hearted Dafa practitioners? What exactly are they doing?

[Hua County, Shannxi Province] Young Daughter Stays Home Alone Without Care After Parents Were Illegally Sentenced to Forced Labor

On January 1, 2001, the "610" office in Hua County inhumanely persecuted Dafa practitioners. The practitioner couple was from the Fertilizer Factory. The husband, Li Haijun, was a security personnel in the police section of the Fertilizer Factory. On March 1, Jiang Zemin's gangsters again unlawfully held a brainwashing class attempting to force the couple to give up their beliefs. The couple was illegally held in the hostel of their working unit and lost their freedom. Their only young daughter was left alone at home.

With the escalation of the persecution conducted by the "610" office, the couple was transferred to Hua County Detention Center. They were unlawfully sentenced to 2 years of forced labor just because they refused to say something against their will. At present, the husband is being illegally held at Zaozihe Labor Camp in Fengxiang County, Shannxi Province and the wife is being illegally held at Xi'an Women's Labor Camp.

[Shandong Province] Police Kidnap Shandong Dafa Practitioner Dai Xiaoping
