The Truth and People's Heart

Li, a peasant living in a destitute village was afflicted with a strange disease and became completely paralyzed. The hospital could not pinpoint the cause. A Dafa practitioner visited him and asked him to read Zhuan Falun. As he studied the book continuously, he quit smoking and drinking, and gradually recovered and was able to work in the fields. His wife, daughter and everyone in the village learned that Falun Dafa saved his family.

Before practicing Falun Gong, I was a manager at a U.S.-China joint capital venture corporation. In 1997, I fell ill and my head hurt so bad I almost died. I started to practice Falun Gong because the hospital couldn't help me. The results from practicing Falun Gong were indeed miraculous because I could then ride a motorcycle whereas I couldn't even ride a bike two months before. One day I had my wife ride with me on my motorcycle. We were almost hit by a car at an intersection. The car stopped within a foot from us. The driver was speechless. If it wasn't for the protection from Master's fashen [law body], I can't imagine what would have happened.

Truth About the Persecution

After July 20, 1999, more than 100 Dafa practitioners have been detained at the Longyan Jail in Minxi Area, Fujian Province. In late January, a group of practitioners were transferred to this jail from all over the province and were forced to attend brainwashing classes, do drilling and other heavy labor for 15 to 16 hours every day. They were not allowed to study the Fa or do the exercises. Dafa practitioner Jiang Sheng did the Falun Gong exercises at night and was hung up for seven days and six nights when discovered. Other practitioners held a hunger strike and were put under "strict control" or hung up. They were not allowed to sleep for several days. On February 20, Dafa practitioners Chen Jin, Chen Ridong, Wang Minhui and Li Jian were handcuffed to the iron window for 30 to 49 hours because they took off the prisoner's uniforms and refused to work or do the prison morning exercises.

Beginning on December 25, 2002, the "610 Office" in Neijiang City, Sichuan Province held brainwashing sessions in a technical school dormitory in a suburban area. Two enforcers would watch and forcibly brainwash a single Dafa practitioner. Practitioners who were kidnapped and sent there have to pay 5,000 Yuan. pays some of this amount. They have to pay an additional 500 Yuan monthly detention fee if they had a work unit.

The vicious guards at the Xishanping Labor Camp in Chongqing City brutally torture Dafa practitioners along with prisoners. They illegally extend the practitioners' detention term from several months to a full year and they constantly steal the practitioners' food. On top of that, many practitioners were severely injured from brutal beatings and were sent to a hospital for emergency treatment.

Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Actions

From a Dafa practitioner in South Africa: I cultivate in Fa-rectification and mature in Dafa. On March 4, 13 practitioners originally from Taipei drove to Cape Town where we clarified the truth to the local people. Some of us went to Cape Technikon, a technical university, to clarify the truth and promote Falun Dafa, because there are many Chinese students in that school. Some delivered truth clarification materials to senators; others delivered truth clarification flyers to local Chinese students; additional ones did the Dafa exercises. We cooperated very well together. At the senate, the secretary of the diplomatic committee accepted our truth clarification materials and the head of the education department listened to us explain the truth about Dafa.

The experience of an elderly teacher going to Tiananmen Square in Beijing to rectify the Fa: On December 21, 2000, I went to Beijing to safeguard the Fa. In Tiananmen Square, a tall police officer stopped and asked, "Say, is Falun Gong good or bad?" I said, "Falun Gong is good." Then I shouted loudly, "Falun Dafa is good. Falun Dafa is the righteous Fa. Restore Master's reputation." I was detained in Haidian District Detention Center and I held a hunger strike. The police ordered the prisoners to torture me and didn't allow me to sleep in order to get my name and address. On the seventh day of my hunger strike the police drove me to the train station. One of the officers said, "This old woman can still walk after seven days of a hunger strike. She's amazing. Falun Gong practitioners are all extraordinary people." I broke out of the detention center in an open and dignified manner after seven days of hunger striking.

Practitioners Exchange Insights

Don't forget our friends and classmates in truth clarification. Recently, eight classmates and colleagues appeared in my dreams, all of whom I had overlooked during truth clarification. I realized I should look for them. Our relationship in this life is not accidental. Many people are anxiously waiting for us to tell them the truth.
