Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Actions: Walking Out of Shibalihe Forced Labour Camp in Excellent Health after a 20-Day Hunger Strike
2005-03-26
Since the persecution started, the forced labour camps have used force-feeding of practitioners as a brutal form of torture. This form of torture has caused severe physical damage and even death to many practitioners. However, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Henan, after a hunger strike of 20 days, didn't become sick and thin. Instead her face was glowing with health. Although she is a mother of two children, she looks younger, more like a 20-year-old. How did she do it? How did she perceive or mentally respond to the persecution? Here is her story -
Falun Dafa Gave Me a Second Life - Torture Is Unable To Change My Belief
2005-03-26The police arrested me in Tiananmen Square. I was sent to a security office in Beijing. I saw an over sixty-year-old grandmother whose life was in danger as a result of a beating by police. She said that her husband was the bodyguard for Li Xiannian, former Chinese president. She had served as a guard for the Red Army since she was thirteen years old. She did not expect to be beaten just for following Falun Dafa's principles of "Truth, Compassion, Forbearance." She just wanted to be a good person. Aren't the police supposed to serve the people? -
Former County Level Cadre: A Gradual Change in My Thinking Led Me to Quit the Chinese Communist Party
2005-03-23It was precisely because I was obedient that some of the leaders in my work unit thought highly of me. Two years after I started work, I was appointed to a position taking charge of the so-called "education of political ideology" and "management of cadres." I therefore became a full-time member of the CCP administration. Not only was I deluded by it, I also devotedly educated other people, and filled them with the CCP's evil principles. -
Pointing out Problems Frankly is Beneficial to Fellow Practitioners
2005-03-23Frank advice is sometimes painful to hear. However, if practitioners accept and cherish the opinions of other practitioners, they will benefit from it. Certainly, the practitioners who make such critical remarks must cultivate themselves, and they shouldn't think too highly of themselves when their opinion turns out to be right. Another thing to consider is that all of this practitioner's opinions may not be correct, and one has to look at each thing on its own. -
We Should Be Impervious to External Changes and Continue to Cultivate Ourselves
2005-03-21We Falun Gong practitioners in China are supposed to use every opportunity to help more people understand and accept the truth about Falun Gong and to do the three things well so as to help Teacher save more people in China. Unfortunately, we have seen that many fellow practitioners in some areas of China have become less rational and have even compromised their attention to security because of their attachments. Some practitioners have radically interpreted Teacher's lectures to meet their attachments. -
Cultivation Story: Learning to Sit in the Lotus Position
2005-03-21When I started to practise Falun Gong in 1997, I could not sit in the lotus position (both legs crossed). I could only sit in "half-lotus" with one leg crossed, and my knee was high in the air. I admired those veteran practitioners sitting with both legs crossed. My younger brother was practising Falun Dafa too. Whenever he came to see me, I asked him to sit on the knee that was sticking up. However, once he sat on my knee, my body leaned to the left. -
Spain: Revealing the Fact of the Persecution Over the Phone
2005-03-17The next phone call was picked up by the family of a labour camp’s prison officer . When I told the person at the other end that “Falun Gong teaches people to be better people, the persecution is wrong and sinful and the ban will certainly be lifted in future”, she said: “The people who practise Falun Gong whom I have see are all very good. I just wonder why good people get locked up.” This relative promised to tell the truth to her family and also that “persecuting good people is a thing which we must never do!” -
Sweden: My Trip to the Western U.S. Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference (Part 3)
2005-03-17Whenever we travelled to America, we always expected to bring some materials back to Europe. Although it is quite hard to take them, this method enabled us to save a lot of money that could be used to mail those packages and to buy more material. Whilst we we packed those cardboard boxes, we always made sure that we packed them prudently and tightly. This was not because we got them with our own money which had been saved in daily life, but we would use these materials to tell the truth about Falun Gong. -
Sweden: My Trip to the Western U.S. Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference (Part 2)
2005-03-14There are numerous people practising it because people benefit from it. This made China’s despotic dictatorship, the Communist Party very jealous. To insure people’s absolute obedience to the Chinese Communist Party, they never allow the existence of any viewpoint and belief that are not controlled by them. Therefore the Chinese Communist Party banned Falun Gong, and furthermore used insidious methods to force all Chinese people to keep away from Falun Gong. -
Grasp Every Opportunity to Reveal the Facts of the Persecution, Leaving No Room For Regrets
2005-03-14After sharing with fellow practitioners, I enlightened to the understanding that I needed to reveal the facts of the persecution to my family in a dignified manner and rectify my surrounding environment. I placed materials detailing the true facts about Falun Gong and VCDs on my neighbours' doors so that they could all see the truth of Falun Gong and the persecution. I told them about the spread of Falun Dafa all around the world and about the torture the practitioners suffered in detention. -
My Trip to the Western U.S. Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference (Part 1)
2005-03-12 I found that the passengers across the aisle and the one before him were staring at me folding the paper lotus flowers. Thereby, I presented each of them with a paper-folded lotus flower, and told them that in Chinese people’s eyes, lotus flowers are symbolic of a pure and noble nature because they grow out of the dirty mud, without being polluted. By talking about lotus flowers, our topics were extended to self cultivation, Falun Gong, and the physical and spiritual well-being I have benefited from practising Falun Gong. -
Some Thoughts Regarding Withdrawal from the CCP, Communist Youth League and Young Pioneers
2005-03-12The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has committed enormous, unforgivable crimes against Falun Dafa and all the beings in the cosmos. Although not all CCP members have directly participated in the persecution of Dafa and Dafa disciples, they have added fuel to the flame as members of the CCP. In the end, they will also have to bear the consequences of the evil deeds perpetrated by the CCP. -
Removing a Fundamental Attachment: the Selfish Mind
2005-03-12Fellow practitioners spent tremendous amounts of time, effort and money to obtain my release. After learning about this, I could not hold back my tears. I blamed myself for causing practitioners to spend so much time in coordinating my rescue, from their busy schedules, that could have been used to save the world's people and sentient beings. Indeed, anything that goes wrong with one person can bring losses to all of us. -
Overcoming My Attachment of Fear
2005-03-10In October of 2004, there were police cars and policemen all over the streets. My phone was tapped and my home was watched by plain-clothes policemen. When I went out of the house my surroundings seemed gloomy and I always felt someone was following and watching me. I was afraid and the attachment of fear was very strong. I said to myself, "Stay home for a few days and avoid the current harsh situation. Do not go out now to clarify the truth. As long as I do not go out, what can the police do about me?" -
A Miraculous Experience While Revealing the Facts About Falun Gong
2005-03-10Then I walked into the building. When I finished distributing the materials and as I started to leave the building, I saw that the person was still keeping watch at the entrance. I thus walked on ahead until the end of the corridor, where there was a turn. I looked to left and saw that there was a big door, which was about 5 to 6 meters tall and it was wide open. Thus, I successfully walked out the door and returned home.
