I obtained the Fa in 1994. Since the persecution started on July 20, 1999, I have gone to Beijing four times to clarify the truth. Every time, my life was put to the test, but every time my faith in Dafa carried me through. However, the pressure of the persecution has not eased off, as the old forces are still taking advantage of our human weaknesses and attachments. Ever since Teacher pointed out in successive lectures the real intention of the old forces, my understanding of the Fa has greatly improved. Being a Dafa practitioner and a Dafa particle, and facing the most formidable persecution that has ever happened, I feel that I have the responsibility to continue to eliminate the evil elements to the best of my ability by clarifying the truth to the public.

It is this responsibility as a Dafa practitioner that drove me to go to wherever other practitioners seldom went to do truth-clarifying work. At first, I was hesitant when looking at these evil places. "Should I do it or not?" I questioned myself. I finally decided to proceed, but before I even started, my warped thinking would emerge and try to interfere with my resolve. With the Fa as my guide, I used strong righteous thoughts to negate this warped thinking until it finally vanished. However evil it might appear to be, I would continue to keep my heart upright and with dignity, but my warped thinking could still rise up amongst my righteous thoughts and actions. At first, I encountered no insurmountable obstacles, but there were still traces of fear remaining. Later on, even that fear dwindled away.

Once, while I was walking through the main hall of a police station to deliver a letter asking them to give up their evil deeds, I realized clearly the danger I was in. My ID card had been confiscated by the police when I was arrested while validating Dafa in Beijing in 1999. A year and a half later, the police removed me from the social security list because they could not locate me when they sent out a nationwide arrest warrant. Even though this increased my peril, I kept in mind that my mission was to demonstrate the solemnity of Dafa and use the power of righteousness to overcome the evil. With the same dignity with which I had entered, I walked out of the police station, calm, composed and undaunted.

By constantly maintaining pure and righteous thoughts, I have successfully delivered Dafa truth-clarifying materials to various army headquarters, government offices and college dormitories. I have delivered materials to various police stations, social security offices, and "re-education centers." I have also put up posters revealing the inhuman behavior of the police on the doors of the Criminal Investigation Agency offices and on the main entrances of detention camps. During the 2002 Spring festival, at Tiananmen Square where large crowds normally gathered, I nobly raised up a banner inscribed clearly with the words "Truth-Compassion-Forbearance," and at the same time, called out with dignity, "Falun Dafa is Good, restore the good name of our Teacher!" From the sparkling eyes of the people around, I could see how they longed for justice, and I heard people everywhere in the crowd praise my actions.

During this terror-stricken period of the persecution, I visited my old work units several times to clarify the truth. Every time, lots of people gathered around me, eager to listen. Some of them seemed to have understood what I said, and some did not. But all of them wanted to know more. While listening to me, they were also worried that the police would discover my presence. One person volunteered to be the sentinel and said, "Keep talking, I will give a signal if they come." After listening to me for a while, one person who had recognized me from the previous visit said to the others, "Judging from her look," while pointing at me, "I can already tell that Falun Gong is good. She is such a kind person." Another one who hadn't met me before said, "She has spoken for quite a while now and I still haven't heard her say anything politically incriminating or against the Party. CCTV (China Central Television) has been misleading us." All of them wanted to read more about the persecution.

One day at noontime, I carried three hundred copies of Dafa truth-clarifying materials into an isolated residential area, one that was heavily guarded and equipped with electronic security. Heavily armed guards patrolled inside the gates, which seemed out of place in a residential neighborhood. (When SARS was at its peak, the police had used this as an excuse to step up their search for Dafa practitioners). Deep in my heart, I strengthened my righteous thoughts. I also recalled what Teacher had said,

This is what I'd think: "You're cold, and you try to make me cold--are you trying to make me freeze? I'll be even colder than you, I'll make you cold." Or, "You're trying to make me hot. I'll turn it around and make you hot--so hot that you can't stand it."

I realized that the demons wanted to scare me off, and they wanted to persecute me. "But, can a divine being be scared of man?" I asked myself, "I will eliminate the evil manipulating these guards!" So, I gazed at the eyes of the two security guards as I walked in without slowing down my pace. When our eyes met, the guards seemed nervous and quickly turned their heads away to avoid me. When I reached the main door, which was protected with an electronic alarm, I quietly asked Teacher to reinforce my power. While holding strong righteous thoughts, I said, "Open!" The door gave way to my push...

Throughout my Fa validation, I deeply felt the power of Teacher's mercy encompassing and encouraging me. I also felt the state of being as described in Essentials for Further Advancement II, "True Nature Revealed": "Steadfastly cultivate Dafa, the will unflinching... " In fact, I seem to be in a special dimension where all unstable elements were under control: here, all evil is powerless, unable to move or daring not to move. The evil beings simply collapsed and disintegrated under our righteous thoughts. Just as Teacher had said,

"Dafa disciples are magnificent, because what you are cultivating is the ultimate Great Fa of the cosmos, because you have validated Dafa with righteous thoughts..." ("The Disciples' Magnificence")

It is our blessing to have a Teacher of infinite mercy, as through him we have obtained the Dafa.

During my everyday activities and interaction with people, I have never missed a chance to clarify the truth. As more evil is being eliminated, people's minds are also getting clearer. Under such circumstances, our work has achieved good results. The awakened people are now craving the truth and want to know more. From these people's sincerity, their questions, and their anxiousness to receive and read the material I hand out, I can see that Dafa disciples have a great task ahead. We must fully utilize every minute and second of the time left.

Dafa practitioners will be the Lords of future universes. We have volunteered to carry out Fa-validation and we have the capacity to do so. While eliminating the evil, we are saving sentient beings at the same time. Hence, regardless of whether we are distributing Dafa materials outside or sending forth righteous thoughts at home, it is important that we use a noble and dignified manner to rectify everything that has deviated from the right path, including personal attachments or anything impure. This is the responsibility of Dafa practitioners during the Fa-rectification period. How much we do and how much we exert ourselves are a measure of our mercy, a level we will achieve through cultivating the righteous Fa. Teacher has said that our cultivation path is very narrow. The old forces are upset, as they are to be eliminated. So, they will try harder to burrow into our loopholes and even step up the persecution. At the same time, the demands upon us Dafa practitioners are higher than before. Under the force of Fa rectification, the paths Dafa practitioners choose are becoming more righteous, and their cultivation is becoming more refined as they walk towards the final stage of completion. While walking towards Consummation with determination, they have at the same time, "established Dafa's magnificence in validating the Fa in the human world." ("Teaching the Fa at the 2003 Midwest-U.S. Fa Conference")

Lastly, I would like to quote Teacher's word as an encouragement,

"Future Great Enlightened Beings, in this final phase of validating the Fa establish your greatest mighty virtue!"
