Never Forget To Rescue People While Imprisoned

Right before the October 1st National Day of Mourning, lots of banners reading, "The Heavens are Extinguishing the CCP" (the Chinese Communist Party); "Quit the Party, the Youth League and the Pioneer's League for your own Safety;" "Falun Dafa is Good" and others appeared. They were posted at the overpass street bridge near the Xidan Shopping Complex and other busy streets in Beijing. The banners strongly shocked the evil. Local police authorities staged mass arrests of practitioners, focusing on males in their 30s. But with the help of gods, all of the surveillance video cameras were dead and the police were clueless.

Since the authorities lacked clues from the camera surveillance, they screened all practitioners against a list of names on October 24. Personnel from the 610 Office (usually six people at a time) broke into a home. The first sentence they spoke would be, "Do you still practice?" Those who answered in the affirmative would have their home ransacked. The persecutors stated that as long as they found any Dafa book or information about the "Nine Commentaries"... regardless of age, the practitioner would be detained for a month or immediately sent to a forced labor camp for two and a half years; if a CD were found, the practitioner would be sentenced to three to seven years of imprisonment.

After I mistakenly opened the door for the 610 Office personnel, it was October 24 that I was taken to a detention center that was known as an evil place. But I was touched by what I heard there. The inmates and guards constantly told me, "We respect you Dafa practitioners;" "You are all good people;" "You people who follow the teachings of 'Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance' are very nice people;" "You have a kind heart;" "You can bring us luck;" "I will try my best to help you..."

I realized from the bottom of my heart that this is the result of Master's Fa rectification, and also the result of many, many practitioners who had been imprisoned but had not forgotten to rescue people. This is also the result of practitioners in China and overseas sending forth righteous thoughts and cleaning out all the evil beings and elements in other dimensions that are behind this persecution.

I was immediately cognizant of my mission: Bring the list of names of those "quitting the CCP and it's affiliates" out of the detention center and post it on the "quit the CCP" website. This is to help rescue those awakened people, since previously sentenced and incarcerated practitioners had not had the opportunity to make the list public.

In the process of clarifying the truth to detainees I found that they have learned "Falun Dafa is good;" "'Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance' is the law of the universe;" "Quit the CCP and it's affiliates for your own safety." They also knew some poems from Hong Yin, about sending forth righteous thoughts and it's formulas, and that practitioners are imprisoned for clarifying the truth and rescuing people, so they supported me actively in doing the exercises. They knew if we did the exercises they would benefit, too.

I helped the detainees quit the Party. Some of them have been there for three years. Nearly 30 persons lived in one room. There are several newcomers - even some Buddhists. They used to misunderstand and even slander Dafa. After more than ten days of communication, all of them except one stated that they wouldn't slander Dafa anymore and agreed to quit the CCP and it's affiliates.

Once done with helping them to quit, I was honorably released from the detention center. When leaving the cell, all the detainees in the cell ignored the regulations and rules, and came to the entrance of the cell to say farewell to me. I shouted out "Falun Dafa is good." The detainees followed with "Falun Dafa is good."

While I was detained, every once in a while you could hear practitioners' voices, "Falun Dafa is good;" "Cultivating 'Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is innocent;" "Stop the persecution!" The detainees in my cell would respond in kind.

Righteous Thoughts Come from Divine Power

By a Falun Dafa practitioner from Wuhan City

When I was held in a prison's B Ward I once received Master's new article, "Foretelling the Fa's Rectification of the Human World" and ever since thought how to pass the new article on to other practitioners.

One day I encountered an inmate from another prison ward. He was watching the clothes on the lines. On my way up there I asked him if there were any practitioners in his ward. When he replied in the affirmative I asked him if he dared to hand them a piece of paper. When he said yes, I gave him the article to pass on.

The Ward B guard came to me afterwards. I recited,

"Dafa is what you carry everywhere,
Zhen Shan Ren, rooted in the mind;
A great Arhat walks the earth,
Gods and demons fear with awe."

("Benevolent Might" in Hong Yin) (English Translation Version A)

Walking into the office the guard exploded when seeing me, "You even passed a message out to the other ward. They handed it to guard A, and that ward has found us!" I said, "I just showed our Master's article to the practitioners in that ward. This is our cultivators' business and has nothing to do with you! What's wrong with it?" The guard calmed down and then said that it is indeed not a big deal. But he said it had been reported by the other ward and it doesn't sound good, so don't pass messages anymore! Then he let me go back to the cell.

After that, guards put me under surveillance and forbade me to go downstairs. One of the surveillance persons is a most vicious inmate, known for beating up people. All the inmates are afraid of him. He pulled me over from the other side of the window and attempted to strike my chest with his boxing-practiced fist. "Boom!" He missed my chest and hit the plasterboard wall instead; chalk powder flew everywhere as his hand bled. I reminded myself that I am a practitioner, with righteous thoughts and righteous behavior. I have Master protecting me. The inmate thus could not hit me.

Then I looked inside for problems: It should have been fine to pass Master's article on to practitioners in the other wards; why would that person have handed it in to the guards? I discovered that I did it with a human mindset, with human pursuit. I had not cultivated myself in this regard, so my action did not follow the Fa.

In the past when I got one of Master's articles, I would make two copies, then send forth righteous thoughts for people with predestined relationship to come and get a copy. Soon another practitioner came, and I handed him the article without any trouble. The evildoers forbade connections between practitioners, even from the same ward. No practitioner could go to a different cell. The police would follow if someone left the cell, but that practitioner could go to other wards, and could come to our ward from other wards, open and aboveboard. I believe this is the power of Dafa; Master assigned him to come.

I realized that practitioners empowered with strong righteous thoughts could go to a different ward. Common human beings are unable to control a divine being, but if we don't follow the Fa, things can easily go wrong and we will easily have tribulations. But if we follow the Fa, a miracle will appear!
