(Minghui.org) A police officer called my son one day to say that a number of them wanted me to sign a transformation statement. The officer asked if they could come to my home, and I agreed.

In the past, I was scared to death whenever the police came to my home. I was afraid of being arrested, and didn’t have the courage to talk to them about Falun Dafa.

I changed my mind recently, after reading many fellow practitioners’ experience sharing articles on the Minghui website and studying the Fa more.

I understood that I was the one who could awaken the police. I asked Master, Falun Dafa's founder, to help me.

I sent forth righteous thoughts to remove the bad elements controlling the officers. Dafa practitioners are the protagonists, and I should explain to them what Falun Dafa is about.

I was calm when the police knocked on the door. I invited them in, and they showed their credentials and introduced themselves.

I suggested we have a little chat and they concurred. I didn’t wait for them to talk, and began to clarify the truth.

I said, “Falun Dafa is a practice of body and mind. Practitioners follow the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance to be good people.

“One should be honest, kind, and tolerant, look inward when there is a conflict, and not hit back when being attacked, or talk back when insulted. A genuine practitioner has good moral character and is free of illnesses.

“Falun Dafa is practiced around the world, and the books have been translated into more than forty languages. It is well-received outside of China, but persecuted in China.”

“Falun Dafa has always been legal in China. Although persecuted since July 1999, two notices from the Ministry of Public Security, issued in 2000 and 2005 separately, list fourteen cult organizations that did not include Falun Dafa.

“Liu Binjie, director of the General Administration of Press and Publication, signed a document on March 1, 2011 lifting the ban on Falun Dafa books, indicating that it is legal to print and own Falun Dafa books and materials in China.”

I also told them the reason I practiced. “I had many illnesses, including anemia, sinusitis, atrophic rhinitis, and eye disease. I sought treatments, but none of them worked. I was fortunate to learn Dafa, and after following its principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, the illnesses disappeared and my character improved.”

“After my husband passed away, the work unit was split up and they gave everyone some money. I received an extra 3,000 yuan but I returned it. My family thought I was dumb for doing that, and I said that being a practitioner, I didn’t want to take what was not mine.”

“My husband and I took care of his eighty-year-old in-laws without financial help from the other four children. After my husband died, it was difficult for me to care for my in-laws and tend the store at the same time.

“So we decided to have everyone pitch in some money, and let the youngest sister take care of them. I contributed financially too. If I weren’t a practitioner, I would be a selfish person who only cared for my self-interest.”

The officers listened without interrupting, so I continued, “The spread of Dafa is to offer salvation to mankind. There are all sorts of disasters now, including the pandemic.

“I hope you all remember that ‘Falun Dafa is good, and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,’ and don’t persecute practitioners. This way you’ll avoid harm and have a brighter future.”

The head of the group said, “That is your personal belief. There is nothing wrong with practicing Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and being a good person. We only look at people’s conduct.”

I said, “Was there any practitioner involved in cases you’ve handled, such as murder, arson, fraud, embezzlement, prostitution, gambling, and drug dealing? If it were not for the persecution, there would be more people practicing, and the society’s moral value would improve. Wouldn’t that be great?”

The head of the police smiled and nodded. He got up and said, “It’s getting late and we should get going.” He shook my hand and left.

Under Master’s protection, the issue of signing the “transformation” statement became a non-issue.
