[Editors' Note: In both Western and Chinese culture, the principle of karmic retribution, that is, being held ultimately accountable for one's own actions, is widely accepted. The fundamental teaching of Falun Gong is the characteristic of the universe, "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." The universe will reward actions that are in harmony with this principle, while actions such as beating, torturing and murdering people will incur karmic retribution. Stated another way, good deeds will be rewarded with good, while evildoings will meet due retribution. Articles such as this one are meant as a compassionateáreminder of this principle to those who would commit wrongdoing. While many of those who persecute Falun Gong are merely "following orders," the universal law requires that they, too, be held responsible for their actions, and that only by reversing their course of wrongdoing may they escape retribution.]
Two Stories of Persecutors in a Detention Center Receiving Retribution
There is a criminal inmate in one of the county detention centers in Northeast China who often beats Falun Gong practitioners. One time he said, "I'll beat you till you can't breathe! " while he was beating the practitioner. Some practitioners told him if he continued hurting good people he would incur karmic retribution, but he would not listen. A couple of days later, he experienced difficulty breathing. The prison doctor came to examine him and found that he had developed pulmonary emphysema. His prison term was almost up and he was to be released soon, but now he was very sick. On the day that he was released, his family members transported him directly to the hospital for medical treatment. Since then, the other criminals in the detention center do not dare to beat Dafa practitioners because they know they will incur karmic retribution.
Three president or vice president level officials in a detention center received karmic retribution after persecuting Falun Dafa practitioners. One of the vice presidents is the cousin of a practitioner. This practitioner visited him and found that his eyes were not able to focus straight ahead and his mouth was crooked, and he felt lots of pain in his mouth for no visble reason. After the practitioner talked to him, he learned that the three officials had all incurred karmic retribution because they had persecuted Dafa practitioners. The president and another vice president crashed into a large tree while riding a motorcycle and they were both hospitalized for their injuries. The one with the lowest rank among the three only suffered from a mysterious pain in his mouth. The practitioner said, "You must have done something that hurt the practitioners." He said, "I never beat practitioners." The practitioner replied, "You must have said something in support when somebody else beat the practitioners, so now you feel pain in your mouth." He admitted doing so. The practitioner took out the truth-clarifying materials that he had brought along with him and gave them to his cousin to read. His cousin promised that he would never again do anything that would hurt Falun Dafa practitioners. A couple of days later, his mouth pain was gone. One day, a truth-clarifying letter was mailed to this detention center. Everybody read it together. Somebody asked him what he thought about the Falun Gong practitioners. He stuck up his thumb and said, "They are all good people."

A Father and Son Commit Evil in Dahe Village, Lincai Town, Huaiyang County, Henan Province
He Feng, head of Dahe village, Lincai town, Huaiyang County, Henan Province, is perverse and has done all kinds of evil things. He is especially cruel to Dafa practitioners. He often announced through high-volume speakers that so much money would be awarded to anyone who reported a practitioner. Because some practitioners wore Falun badges and did Falun Dafa exercises at home, many times he and officers from the local police station abducted them. Many practitioners were detained and fined. He Feng' father, He Mingjin, is even more vicious and confrontational. He often cursed Falun Dafa and it's founder. One day, he discovered that he had heart disease. He was sent to the hospital right away and almost lost his life. His brother He Xiangyang is also a troublemaker. After he was released from prison in August 2001, he died within 6 months and the cause is still unclear. His son He Xiaowei, who is about 13 or 14 years old, is retarded. He became lost one winter, but He Feng did not want to look for him. Under pressure from his family and neighbors, he had to post a message to look for his son. When found, his son was near death and had frostbite all over his body.
It is these kinds of people who do not even care for their families that go out of their way to persecute Dafa practitioners.
