Fa-Rectification and Cultivation

The article discusses with much clarity the question of how to handle Fa-rectification and cultivation. During the Fa-rectification, Dafa disciples have a different situation from when personal cultivation was done in the past. In the face of the groundless harming, in the face of the persecution of Dafa, and in the face of the injustice forced upon us, we cannot handle things or categorically accept things as before in personal cultivation, because Dafa disciples are now in the Fa-rectification period.

Practitioner Kong Deyi Tortured to Death in Changlinzi Labor Camp

[Clearwisdom.net]

More than 140 Dafa practitioners are being detained in the Changlinzi Labor Camp of Heilongjiang Province, where they are brainwashed and tortured each day. The camp officials often torture practitioners deep into the night, forcing them to stand facing the wall and denying them sleep. Some practitioners are forced to spend two weeks in custom-made cages. These cages are 5 ft by 5 ft by 5 ft, so that the person locked up inside cannot stand up or sit down, but is forced to remain in a crouching position. This is extremely painful and caused many of the practitioners to experience severe swelling all over their bodies. After these two weeks, camp officials transferred all of the practitioners who refused to give up Falun Gong to the fourth division to perform heavy physical labor from 5 am to midnight everyday.

Dafa Practitioner Liu Yonglai Is Tortured to Death in the Dalian Labor Camp, Liaoning Province

[Clearwisdom.net] In March 2001, members of the Zhongge Police Station arrested 36-year-old Dafa practitioner Liu Yonglai while he was in a rural area distributing fliers that clarify the truth about Falun Gong. The police immediately sent him to the Yaojia Detention Center. Because he was firm in his belief in Falun Gong, Liu was sentenced to 3 years of labor education in the Dalian Labor Camp--without his family' knowledge! Because he refused to be brainwashed, the labor camp did not permit Liu' family to visit him. On July 7, his family was notified that Liu had died. However, according to practitioners who knew him well, Liu was in very good shape before the police sent him to the labor camp.
