(Clearwisdom.Net) Editors' Note: In both Western and Chinese culture, the principle of karmic retribution, that is, being held ultimately accountable for one's own actions, is widely accepted. 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 compassionateáreminder 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.

A practitioner in Xingtai in Hebei Province was distributing truth-clarifying materials when the Secretary of the village found him and reported him to the local police.

In the winter of 2001, the secretary suffered from a gastric disease and heart attacks. Oftentimes he lay in bed unable to move and he felt as if his entire body was on fire. His arms and legs ached so much he was unable to walk. He had visited many doctors and taken lots of medicine. But he had no relief. He then made an inquiry of a person whose 'celestial eye' was opened. He was told that taking medicine could not cure his illnesses because he had offended God and was rewarded with such karmic retribution.
