The universe will reward actions that are in harmony with this principle, while actions such as beating, torturing and murdering people will incur karmic retribution. Stated another way, good deeds will be rewarded with good, while evildoings will meet due retribution. Articles such as this one are meant as a compassionate reminder of this principle to those who would commit wrongdoing.

According to a source who had been imprisoned at Baiyun Drug Rehabilitation Centre, several drug addicts beat a Falun Gong practitioner on order of the wardens. A residence medical doctor told the torturers, "Do not punch the waist. We need his kidneys."

The Celestial Band, a marching band consisting of 200 members, was a most striking surprise in the January 28th, 2006, New York Chinese New Year Parade. They later participated in the rally and parade in Los Angeles celebrating 8 million Chinese quitting the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in late February. Practitioners showed their solidarity with fellow practitioners persecuted in China, letting the world see that the Chinese Communist regime cannot suppress them. They will not cower in front of the CCP, nor will they react with hatred.

On March 8th, a former Chinese Communist Party (CCP) intelligence officer revealed to reporters of the Falun Gong website Minghui.org that a large number of Falun Gong practitioners are being held in the secret Sujiatun Concentration Camp in Shenyang City. There are crematoria and on-site doctors who live inside the concentration camp. Human organs are harvested from practitioners and sold on the black market. This stunning revelation immediately shocked and enraged the international community.

The existence of the Sujiatun Concentration Camp in Shenyang, Liaoning Province was recently exposed to the public. Over 6,000 Falun Gong practitioners have been detained and tortured at the concentration camp, some even killed. For those who still have illusions about the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the news should be a wake-up call, reminding them to have a clear understanding on the wickedness of the CCP.

Both Ms. Han Yuzhi and Liu Jizhi are Falun Gong practitioners. The police tortured them in order to get more practitioners' names so they could arrest them and extort money from them. When Ms. Liu Jizhi was raped, another policeman Wang Zengjun was in the same room (without doing anything to stop the crime). Chinese nowadays has a saying, "Bandits used to be deep in the mountains, but now they are inside the police force."

On March 8th 2006, an inside source revealed that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) had set up a secret concentration camp for Falun Gong practitioners. The CCP camp is located in the Sujiatun District, Shenyang City, where more than 6,000 Falun Gong practitioners are locked up. No detainee is known to have ever left this place alive. The camp has a crematorium and an unusually large number of doctors. The source stated, "The horrors inside this vicious Sujiatun Secret Concentration Camp are shocking, and the brutality of the crimes of harvesting detainees' organs and selling them for a huge profit is mind-boggling."

The Celestial Band, a marching band consisting of 200 members, was a most striking surprise in the January 28, 2006, New York Chinese New Year Parade. They later participated in the rally and parade in Los Angeles celebrating 8 million Chinese quitting the Chinese Communist Party in late February. Practitioners showed their solidarity with fellow practitioners persecuted in China, letting the world see that the Chinese Communist regime cannot suppress them. They will not cower in front of the CCP, nor will they react with hatred. The band members demonstrated joy and festiveness in order to validate the beauty of the Falun Gong principles of "Truth-Compassion-Forbearance."

"I worked for over a decade as an armed policeman at Tiananmen Square. I am so familiar with the area that I can tell you how many steps it takes to walk from Tiananmen Square to Jishuitan Hospital. How could it possibly take over an hour for the ambulance to drive the alleged burned victims from Tiananmen Square to Jishuitan Hospital? The Chinese Communist Party has no common sense at all. It has no regard for the consequences of its lies. This is the way of the Party. It is doomed."

The fundamental teaching of Falun Gong is the characteristic of the universe, "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." The universe will reward actions that are in harmony with this principle, while actions such as beating, torturing and murdering people will incur karmic retribution. Stated another way, good deeds will be rewarded with good, while evildoings will meet due retribution. Articles such as this one are meant as a compassionate reminder of this principle to those who would commit wrongdoing.

Many people from Mainland China may realise that they also have lived in such a "collective" which asserts its wish to "raise the quality of life" of the whole world. Even after leaving China, some people still hold on to the concept of a "collective." They don't have independent thinking and remain in the same frame of thought in which the "collective" trained them.

More miraculous things followed. On February 16th of this year, the husband was riding a motorcycle to take his sister-in-law to her mother's home. While the motorcycle was going down the road, suddenly the chain broke and both wheels flew off. The two people on the motorcycle were thrown off with no time to react. Miraculously, when they stood up, they couldn't find even a little scratch on themselves. When the husband returned home, he told his wife, "Today two lives were saved."

In our county, there is a Falun Dafa practitioner who works as a teacher. A student's parents reported the practitioner to the principal because he had explained the truth about Falun Dafa to the students. The practitioner was arrested and held in a detention centre. The incident was exposed on the Minghui website, and fellow practitioners overseas called the principal of the school. The principal was in a meeting when he received the phone call. As soon as he took the call, he started to sweat. Soon the practitioner was released.

"In my life, I have never done anything bad. But I am always jealous of others. When people have done better than I, I am jealous. I like only those who flatter me. When I heard that somebody else did some good deeds, I would feel doubtful. But when I heard that somebody did some bad things, I would never question it. When I saw others obtain profits, I would feel as if I suffered some loss. But when I saw others lose something, I would feel as if I gained a fortune."

Some wounded areas had been attacked again before they had had a chance to heal and were oozing yellow fluid. Mother had been very healthy, but now, after repeated attacks by the police's stun batons, she looked withered and ill. She was in a living hell. It was shocking and frightening! I no longer believed the lies fabricated on TV about the "tender, kind reeducation" given to Falun Gong practitioners at the forced labour camps. This is the truth behind the lie that "this is the best period of human rights in China!"

Since the persecution began over six years ago, Falun Gong practitioners in China and outside of China have distributed innumerable kinds of materials to expose the persecution for what it is. Where does the money for making the materials come from?

Recently, he was asked to become Head of the local Criminal Police Department. He refused to take the position. He told his brother, "Do you know what the Criminal Police Department does? It persecutes Falun Dafa. I am not going to do that." At his own insistence, he was given a job that has nothing to do with persecuting Falun Dafa.

Mostly the choristers practise in their own home. In each country there are periodical meetings for group training. In addition, the choristers gather in Germany and Sweden for monthly training. Before each significant performance, all the choristers from all parts of Europe spend their own money gathering in one place for intensive training.

The fundamental teaching of Falun Gong is the characteristic of the universe, "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance."

Another visitor stepped out of the tour bus to smoke. I went up to him and asked, "Have you withdrawn [from the Chinese Communist Party]?" He said, "I withdrew a long time ago. Who wants to be with a Party like that?" I told him, "You should not only withdraw yourself, but also tell your families and friends to do the same!" He nodded and went back to the bus. I sensed that he wanted an opportunity to talk to me and used smoking as an excuse to come off the bus.

Some people said, "This incident was not necessarily done entirely by Falun Dafa practitioners. The populace is also doing it. At present, many people of the general public are also distributing brochures, posting fliers, and helping to spread other materials exposing the persecution. After seven years of persecution, people have learnt that Falun Dafa practitioners are good people. Who would not help good people?"

We had relatives over this Lunar New Year. A relative from my husband's family saw me and hurriedly asked if I practised Falun Gong, to which I replied 'yes'. He asked, "Do you still practise?" I replied, "Yes." He then said, "That's great." He wanted to find the book to read. He often listens to Voice of America, and hears many accounts of the power of Falun Gong, and how many people's illnesses have been cured. He enquired if I brought my book with me. I said, "Yes. If you want to read it, I'll print out a copy for you. "

Everybody knows that people commonly love their parents and their other family members. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) saw a way to take advantage of the power and value of familial love. To solidify its rule and manipulate the people, it has spared no effort to deceive people and develop their "love" towards the CCP. After decades of brainwashing with the CCP's culture, the people's mental dependence and fondness for the CCP is like a feral child's affinity to the mother wolf, with this mentality taking root in many people's minds without their knowing.

In contemporary China, everything must be in praise of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). But people know in their hearts that the CCP is evil, since few people have not suffered from the Party. The CCP controls the power to force people to work for it; so can people be happy doing it? Coming neither from the hearts of artists nor speaking for the people, of course, the art works made in such circumstances are not touching. So we can put it this way: leaving the CCP's shadow, Chinese people can finally find their true selves and create genuine art works, and show the world the real meaning of Chinese culture."

For a long time when I saw fellow practitioners interrupted by a serious "illness," deep in my mind I thought it was because they were not cultivating well enough. I sometimes even directly pointed it out to them, "Please cultivate well if you want to cultivate, otherwise just give it up." Occasionally I took a dislike to these fellow practitioners and used the Falun Gong teachings to justify my doing so.

The most malicious thing this individual has done is pretending to be a Falun Gong practitioner and trying to prove her "innocence" with lies and unsubstantiated stories. She continues to spread and add poison to the Chinese Communist Party's persecution of Falun Gong by writing articles filled with lies and vicious attacks. It is sad to see her crying out "innocence" after all of the debasing things she has done. She is now turning the tables and slandering the witnesses to her crimes.

During the Gala held by the NTDTV, the Chinese Communist Party ordered Fan to take part in a dancing group. She borrowed the cell phone of practitioners and tinkered with them (most likely installing devices to monitor calls) and stole some stage props. She passed information to the Chinese Communist Party, allowing officials there to confiscate costumes the dance group had ordered from a place in China.

The nuclear threat by Chinese General Zhu Chenghu against the U.S. last year, the incident of Chinese communist policemen shooting harmless unarmed villagers in Shanwei City, the escalating persecution of Falun Gong, among other things, have made the world re-think the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Some have even asked for taking the games away from Beijing. In response, the CCP has been hosting Chinese cultural festivals in various places in the world. The purpose is obvious.

According to the staff members who work in the Hanshan District Police Department, the police were frightened by the phone calls. They said, "We can no longer arrest any Falun Gong practitioners, since only one day after we arrested her (Ms. Li Shunying), we have already received so many phone calls from Hong Kong, inside of China, and outside of China, all explaining that what we are doing is wrong."

We gradually realized that this is caused by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). We felt disgusted and angry in our hearts. In 1999, the CCP initiated the brutal persecution against a group of kind-hearted people, who simply believe in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. The CCP used the excuse of too many people practicing Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance to start the persecution at all levels of society. At that time, as office workers, we all felt that the persecution is wrong.

The idea and concept of "to each person according to his need" is primarily developed by utilising the negative side of human nature that is selfish and afraid of hard work. The concept of "to each person according to his need" basically means that regardless of how much effort and work one puts in, one can get whatever one wants and how much one wants. This concept is indeed favoured by those who don't intend to do much work. These are the fundamental evils of such communist doctrine.

There should be no doubt that the decades of the Chinese Communist Party's rule of terror have seen the most numerous and most serious crimes by a communist regime. This is especially the case in the genocidal persecution of Falun Gong, which has continued for over six years. The CCP not only irrationally persecutes people in China, but also constantly extends its persecution overseas by committing crimes in Western countries, where freedom is respected and human rights are protected.

"I am truly horrified to know the depth of depravity and barbarity one human can reap upon another, but I am even more appalled when these actions are sanctioned by a nation. Human rights must be respected by all, everywhere if the human race is to continue. Sanctions must be brought against China and they absolutely should not be permitted to host the Olympics. Please get involved, write letters and remember this woman's story and courage in your prayers each day."

In the more severe cases, the police have raped or gang-raped female practitioners; they have shocked the practitioners with electric batons inserted into their vagina's, they have tortured the practitioners by shoving stiff brushes into their vagina's, and they have stripped them naked and thrown them into the cells of male criminals. One woman who survived these tortures said, "One cannot imagine the sinister nature of those police."

Before I listened to the Falun Gong teachings that time, I had already decided to have an operation in Beijing. The required deposit was 6000 yuan (500 yuan is equal to the average monthly income of an urban worker in China). However, a little over a month after I listened to Master's Teachings, I was able to walk and become healthier. I could also start doing some housework. My children also said that I no longer have a bad temper and I can see that my family has grown more harmonious.

“In 2002 when I read the book Zhuan Falun, I felt that the principle of “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance” on which Falun Gong is based are very good. I hoped that I could be a person who lives my life by those principles. After practising Falun Gong exercises, my back pain was miraculously healed."

The attack on Dr. Li shows that the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) persecution against Falun Gong is not only confined to China. This case again confirms that the CCP is the greatest source of communist criminal activity in the world today. Ignoring or holding unrealistic hopes for the CCP for any reason are no different than sanctioning the evil, and will eventually lead to even greater damage.

"I solemnly swear that I withdraw my membership from all Communist Party organisations. All previously written declarations and applications made in the past are invalid from now on. This is declared by: New Life." -- The statements above comprise a Communist Party membership withdrawal declaration that a friend asked me to publish. It is a very simple statement but there is a significant story behind it.

I was shocked to hear about the violent attack against Dr. Peter Yuan Li, a Falun Gong practitioner from the United States, by Chinese Communist Party (CCP) hired thugs and spies. His wounded face immediately reminded me of the recent rapes by Zhuozhou police officer He Xuejian of Falun Gong practitioners Liu Jizhi and Han Yuzhi. These acts of terrorism, similar to the other instances of persecution against Falun Gong practitioners, are backed by the followers of Jiang Zemin in the CCP.

The father went to talk to the appropriate officials to ask for justice, but they responded by asking, "Why do you let your son practise Falun Gong?" The old man angrily replied, "You are really bleeding people dry! My son practises Falun Gong to be a good person, and nobody in the village thinks he is bad. You, on the other hand, detain him and don't let him be a good person. Would you rather see people committing murder and arson?"

An international legal forum on "How to Prevent Genocide" was held in Stockholm, Sweden in January 2004. Human rights lawyers and NGOs (Non-governmental Organisations) from the United States, Canada, Taiwan, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Finland and Sweden attended. They reached the unanimous conclusion that the persecution of Falun Gong in China is in fact genocide, according to the definition of genocide and related laws and cases.

The San Francisco Chinese Chamber of Commerce's decision to bar Falun Gong from Saturday's Chinese New Year parade has grabbed headlines and raised concerns about discrimination. However, what is flying under the radar is the simple question of why the local participation of this meditation group -- known for its slow-moving exercises, colourful parades and history of being persecuted by the atheist Chinese communist government -- would cause so much international commotion?

This is already the third year that NTDTV has presented this spectacular cultural event. For the past three years, several dozen galas, patterned on NTDTV's major event, have regaled audiences worldwide. The dedicated artists come from Europe, North America, Asia and Australia. Their immense talents regale the audience with song and dance and tremendous acting ability during the restaging of the wonderful myths and beautiful legends.

Despite years of experience in teaching Chinese history, this teacher could not refute the facts. One student asked, "Teacher, why don't you withdraw from the CCP?" What was intended to be a Communist indoctrination lecture became a forum of exposing the facts, due to many students being sober-minded about the CCP's propaganda.

Articles such as this one are meant as a compassionate reminder of this principle to those who would commit wrongdoing. While many of those who persecute Falun Gong are merely "following orders," the universal law requires that they, too, be held responsible for their actions, and that only by reversing their course of wrongdoing may they escape retribution.

Under the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime, millions of Falun Gong practitioners have been persecuted based on the state terrorism policy of "ruin [practitioners'] reputations, bankrupt [practitioners] financially, and destroy [practitioners] physically." The CCP's policy of implication and association resulted in and fostered conflicts and hatred among people.

The couple knows that practising Falun Gong can bring a person good physical health and improve one's moral standard. They do not understand why the government persecutes good people, "How can the government fear there being too many good people? If all good people are locked up in prison while bad people can do whatever they want, and no one restrains himself with moral standards, then where is hope for the society?" The husband often talks with his passengers about these thoughts and tells them that Falun Dafa is good.

Over the course of the six years of persecution, as the CCP churned out an endless stream of lies about Falun Dafa, my colleagues privately encouraged me to ignore the propaganda and continue my cultivation. This year, after some of them returned from overseas, they told me, "You Falun Gong practitioners are everywhere! You might as well continue to practise diligently." Recently some people encouraged me, "You must remain steadfast to the end. The minority often holds the truth."

Stated another way, good deeds will be rewarded with good, while evildoings will meet due retribution. Articles such as this one are meant as a compassionate reminder of this principle to those who would commit wrongdoing. While many of those who persecute Falun Gong are merely "following orders," the universal law requires that they, too, be held responsible for their actions, and that only by reversing their course of wrongdoing may they escape retribution.

So in the current situation, it is not that the CCP has loosened its policy, it's because the people are cooperating with the regime, following their hard-learnt so-called "self-discipline." Consequently, the method of which the CCP controls people has shifted from overtly coercive to subtle.
