(Clearwisdom.net) Recently while I was studying "Energy Field" in the book Zhuan Falun, I vividly remembered two things that I had experienced.

Before the persecution began on July 20 1999, we had formed a local Fa study group. I remember it was in an old-fashioned building with only one room, which was about twelve or thirteen square meters in size. More than twenty people normally joined the group, and thirty or more attended on weekends and holidays. Because there were so many people crowded into such a small space, the practitioner who lived there removed almost all of her furniture from the room, including her bed, to make room for everyone, and we sat on mats on the ground. We first studied the Fa once a week, about an hour each time, and as time went on, we lengthened our Fa-study to two hours, studying one lecture every day. For four years we enjoyed this precious group Fa-study environment. Even when it was extremely hot and humid in the summer, or during the cold winter months with all the windows closed tightly, the room was never stuffy, even with so many people crowded together in such a small place. Instead, there was always a slight fragrance diffused throughout the room (the practitioner didn't use any room fresheners in her home), which refreshed everyone. I still miss that peaceful and wonderful cultivation environment we had.

Then on July 20, 1999, the Chinese Communist regime began the persecution, and many Falun Gong practitioners went to the State Council Appeals Office to clarify the truth and appeal for Dafa, but were arrested and detained at the Beijing Fengtai Stadium. That night, the police came with big busses to transfer the practitioners. I was transferred from the stadium to Daxing Detention Center. It was so crowded on the bus that if anyone even wanted to even turn around, others had to make space for that person. Everyone was tightly crammed in together. Even though it was very uncomfortable, the practitioners still left the seats for senior practitioners, children, and ladies, and men and women tried to avoid direct body contact. After we arrived at the detention center, the police officers didn't care about the uncomfortable situation on the bus, and they didn't even allow the elderly practitioners to use the rest room. The practitioners were kept on the bus for as long as six or seven hours. It's very hot in late July in Beijing and there was no wind that night. With so many people stuck inside the bus who had been exposed to sunlight and rain that day, and whose clothes had been alternately wet and dried several times, there wasn't the slightest smell or feeling of uncomfortable humidity. Not a single practitioner felt uncomfortable. While enduring such harsh conditions, the beauty of Dafa was manifested.

From these two experiences I came to understand that no matter when and where, Falun Gong is the best and the most righteous,

"Only the energy field from cultivation practice in a righteous way can produce this effect." (Zhuan Falun)
