"The Same Song" Used as Psychological Torture Against Falun Gong Practitioners

"The same song" has happy, easy-going lyrics and can be considered a romantic song. It is sung by famous singers with great emotion and was Sometimes it was accompanied by children's voices. The CCTV has a programme entitled "The Same Song." However, this song is a major tool for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to engage in spiritual persecution and brain-washing and mind-transformation of Falun Gong practitioners. Behind the song is the suffering and blood and tears of thousands and thousands Falun Gong practitioners who are being unlawfully persecuted.

The persecution of Falun Gong practitioners by the CPP is not only brutal but also hypocritical. Every Falun Gong practitioner who has been put into prison, labour camp and brain washing session has clear memories of this song. The song stands for "transformation,” It is a mark for Falun Gong practitioners who accepted the brain washing against their will after their body and mind underwent painful persecution.

Whenever the song was sung in a room, everybody knew that a Falun Gong practitioner had written an "affidavit" to give up practising because they were not able to bear the physical and mental persecution of the torture and ceaseless punishment. A lot of people will be in tears sadly because they were forced to do this thing against their conscience. Yet the police and those henchmen who assisted the police in persecuting Falun Gong practitioners were proudly singing "the same song" together.

Singing the song aims at further controlling the mind of Falun Gong practitioners, its goals are as follow:

1. It serves as a spiritual narcotic, which enables Falun Gong practitioners who compromised under persecution to forget the bloody agony they personally experienced. Every Falun Gong practitioner has suffered from much agony in the persecution during these years. During illegal detention, even if they compromised to the CCP against their will, they would still reveal the savage act of the CCP after being released. The CCP is most fearful of the exposure of their crime. Thus, this song which sounds beautiful is used as a narcotic to allow those who compromised under persecution to forget the persecution and torment that he went through in singing the song.

2. Engaging in brain-washing of Falun Gong practitioners, forcing Falun Gong practitioners to compromise not only in terms of behaviour but also in their minds.

It is not the goal of the CCP to eliminate a group of people physically. Its goal is to control and command the people being persecuted spiritually so that they will sing praise even if they have being persecuted. The main goal of this song is to engage in spiritual control of the persons being persecuted and to prevent the people from thinking clearly in an isolated, close environment with the unspoken words in the song. Thus, those who were being persecuted have to sing the song once they give in. There are also activities, group singing and continuous singing to reinforce the function.

After the CCP embarked on the persecution, countless Falun Gong practitioners were separated from their families and children, forced out of their houses. Some even died of starvation or coldness.

In the persecution, the CPP has always conducted evil propaganda. Under the totalitarian speech environment, a lot of people in China misunderstand Falun Gong practitioners, curse Falun Gong practitioners, and even participate in the persecution. However, the one who created the rumour "comforts" the Falun Gong practitioners who are being discriminated against.

Since the persecution of practitioners, Falun Gong practitioners have been dismissed, divorced, fined, locked up illegally, tortured, and punished physically. Many even were persecuted to death. While they live a nightmare, the one who created the nightmare said that "no one will miss the sweet dream"; once the Falun Gong practitioners who underwent countless sufferings in both body and mind, caved in, those people who hit you, punished you, and scolded you all began to sing to you and smile at you. It is as if the sufferings by Falun Gong practitioners in the past were to "welcome this moment of happy gathering today";

"The same song" is full of such unspoken words which enable some people to accept the agony and suffering in the past and sing the song along with the CCP. Some victims will even think: "Suppression is right, the cruel torture is right. Without the hardships in persecution, how can they experience the ease of life of singing along with the police?" Any normal person can tell that this is spiritual distortion generated in the harsh persecution. This is exactly the goal of the brain washing by the CCP.

3. Conceal the persecution, gloss over the peace, conduct the complete brain washing of Falun Gong practitioners and even all the people in the country.

On the 22nd of July, 1999, the CCP announced the suppression of Falun Gong. In 2000, CCTV began to produce the programme of singing performances named the "The Same Song," which is broadcast live during prime time every Friday. "The same song" has been used as the ending song. The CCP on the one hand carries out bloody suppression of it one's own people, on the other hand created a peaceful scene of peace and prosperity. It prevented the people from hearing the painful groans and the calling of the people under persecution.

It is fine if this was geared toward enriching the Chinese people's lives. Yet in the past few years since the CCP suppressed Falun Gong practitioners, the whole state apparatus is concentrated on the suppression and has consumed vast sums of money paid for by society at large. The social conflict has increased, workers are out of jobs, farmers have lost their land and children prevented from going to school. However, this weekly programme with the presence of stars has been glossing over the illusion of a "grand peaceful time" all over China all the time.

When singers appeared in turns on TV, the audiences shouted and jumped for joy. Countless fluorescence flickers flew with the song. All this has become a sharp contrast to the brutal, inhumane and yet consecutive persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. In the prisons, labour camps and brain-washing sessions that detained Falun Gong practitioners illegally, besides "network news", "the same song" is the only programme that they must watch. It is very difficult to see other programmes if they do not carry content that slanders Falun Gong. The persecutors want to affect the will of Falun Gong practitioners who suffer because of their belief in "truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance" and force them to compromise. Every week they use "the same song" as the ending song broadcast on TV to conduct brain washing on Falun Gong practitioners, attempting to control their minds.

The exquisite sets are just to cover up the blood thirsty brutality in the daytime of an evil doer. The White Bone Demon can turn into a tender young village woman. When beauty is used by evil, that thing is not truly beautiful. On the contrary, it will make it easier for the evil to reach its goal. Fellow countrymen do not be confused by the disguise under ignorance and be used by evil. Please see through this fraud with your clear sense of good and evil, right and wrong.
