What Is "Genocide"?

(This article was originally published on January 10, 2003 on Minghui Website. Note in [] was added by the Editor.)

In American dictionaries, the term "genocide" is defined as the deliberate and systematic destruction of a racial, political, cultural or religious group.

After Reciting Teacher's Article "Expounding on the Fa" Several Times I Realized What I Should Do

May 21, 2003

(Clearwisdom.net)

1. On March 2, 2002, I was abducted by officers from the local police station and taken to a detention center. The police confiscated many Dafa truth-clarifying materials when they searched my home. The Political and Security Section officials asked me where I had obtained the materials, but I refused to answer them. Days later, they asked me to write a guarantee stating that I would not practice Falun Gong in the future and my views about Falun Gong. I wrote about how I had benefited from practicing Falun Gong and how good Falun Gong is, and that the lies spread by the government propaganda are inconsistent with what I had experienced. I hoped that they could learn the truth and release me. Fifteen days later, I was sent to a brainwashing class. There, I refused to comply with their orders. Under the empowerment of Teacher and the help of fellow practitioners outside the labor camp, I escaped by climbing over the wall surrounding the brainwashing center.

Offering Salvation with Compassion Is the Main Purpose

(Clearwisdom.net)

In the past, every time I clarified the truth to the people I knew, they were never able to accept it. I thought about it repeatedly and asked myself: Why? I really wanted to let other people know the truth of Falun Gong, but they didn't understand. Even my own family opposed me and I really felt sad and worried. Was this because my mind was not righteous enough?
