(Minghui.org) I'm an elderly practitioner. Protected by our great benevolent Master, I have practiced Falun Dafa for 20 years. Looking back, I have cherished the Fa-rectification period and distributed information about the persecution, which has helped to save many sentient beings.
Places like law enforcement offices and the 610 Office are hard to enter, but I have gained access several times to save people.
In 2014, two elderly practitioners in our area were arrested by the domestic security police of the county. One of them was released a short time later, but the other remained in illegal detention. I wrote a letter and made many copies. I put each copy into an envelop and wrote “official” as the addressee.
I carried a bag of these letters to the county office building. The guard asked me the reason for my visit. I said I had personal business and wanted to talk to a particular officer. He had me sign in and let me enter.
I started distributing the letters, working my way from the 4th floor to the ground floor. I walked into each office and handed the letter to someone or left a copy on a desk. Some people opened the letter immediately and thanked me.
I reached the 610 Office when I was distributing the 19th copy. The police apprehended and took me to the Domestic Security Division.
The head of the division had persecuted Falun Dafa for many years. He asked me who wrote the letter, and I told him that I did. He wasn't convinced and decided to verify my handwriting.
I then clarified the facts to him while sending forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil elements behind him.
At last he said, “I was going to put you in detention for 15 days. But you can go now. I have a dinner to go to.” I wanted to clarify the facts more thoroughly to him, but he asked me to leave.
Another elderly practitioner was detained in the summer of 2015 for putting up posters and held for more than seven months. The police threatened to sentence him. I thought, “We must negate the evil persecution and rescue this practitioner. We must also save the police and the judge involved.”
I encouraged the wife of the practitioner to visit him in the detention center. I accompanied her and thought, “It would be nice if the guard on duty was someone I knew, because he would know the truth and would have already withdrawn from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations.”
At the gate of the detention center I saw that the guard was indeed someone I knew. I said, “My wish has been fulfilled today–I wanted to see you and here you are!” I told him we wanted to see the practitioner and had brought him some winter clothes.
The guard said he was not actually on duty. He said the practitioner had been hooked up to a catheter for more than a week, and his situation had been reported to the detention center supervisors, but nothing had been done. I asked who we should talk to, and he pointed us in the right direction.
We found the director of the detention center and clarified the facts to him. He said the case had already gone to court. We went to the court and demanded the practitioner's immediate release on the grounds of his critical condition.
The court authorities said they needed the detention center's report to verify his condition. So we went back to the detention center and didn't leave until the director promised to follow up.
We went back and forth the entire day. Even with the wind stiffening our faces and hands, we felt warmth in our hearts because we did what we were called to do.
Under Master's arrangements, and with the collective efforts of local practitioners, the practitioner returned home three days later, thus negating the old forces' arrangements.
The persecution is still severe in my county, and several police officers in the Domestic Security Division have been actively persecuting Falun Dafa for many years. Despite our repeated truth-clarification attempts, I was unable to help save them, because I could not get into their office building.
But in the spring of 2016, I found a smart phone someone had dropped and went to the police department with a fellow practitioner. We told the guard that we were there to return a lost smart phone, and he let us enter after we signed in.
We walked straight into the office of the Domestic Security Division and saw the deputy director sitting there, a man who has been directly involved in persecuting us.
We called him by name, which surprised him. He asked us why we were there. I said, “I found an expensive smart phone. We want to give it to the police, and you are the only police officer we know.”
He stood up and said, “I admire you for turning in a valuable item you found. I salute you.”
He offered us a seat, and we started clarifying the facts to him. We asked him to stop persecuting Dafa disciples and to return the Dafa books they had confiscated.
He pointed at the surveillance camera and appeared a little scared. I knew it was the evil behind him that was scared. We sent forth righteous thoughts and disintegrated the evil. He wasn't scared anymore.
He gave us the room numbers of several other key officers from the Domestic Security Division and suggested we clarify the facts to them as well. He also told us that we should give the smart phone to the police station.
I realized Master had arranged for us to clarify the facts in the police station.
The police officers at the station also expressed admiration for us and asked us to leave our names. We said, “As Dafa practitioners we do not care about names.” We then clarified the facts to them openly and nobly. In the end, they escorted us out respectfully.
Master said,
“Validate the Fa with rationality, clarify the truth with wisdom, spread the Fa and save people with mercy—this is establishing the mighty virtue of an Enlightened Being.” (“Rationality” in Essentials for Further Advancement II)
In the past, I would have forced my way into the building and been beaten. Trying to clarify the truth in that situation would not have gone well. Now, with wisdom and compassion, we had helped save them and disintegrated the evil. What a difference!
