(Clearwisdom.net) Daqing City Detention Center has always been a notorious place for persecuting Dafa practitioners. The monitors are everywhere to keep track of practitioners' every move at all times. Practitioners who were illegally detained here were not allowed to practice the exercises or study the Fa. If one practiced the exercises, she was pulled out, handcuffed and shackled and then subjected to all kinds of physical torture. At the same time, the police would also punish the criminals in order to incite their hatred against practitioners; this in turn made the criminals torture Dafa practitioners. However, the practitioners one after another, demonstrating their pure compassion and great tolerance they had cultivated from Dafa, have used their lives to validate Dafa, to wake up those criminals' conscience, to improve the environment in the prison and to terrify the evil.

On May 30, 2002, Dafa practitioner Auntie Wang (in her sixties,) [Note: In Chinese culture, calling a woman of one's acquaintance "Auntie" is a term of respect for an older person and does not connote kinship] was kidnapped and brought to the detention center. She went on hunger strike to protest the persecution. Meanwhile, she kept practicing the exercises regularly every day, and sent forth righteous thoughts every hour to eliminate the evil factors over there. The evil police were afraid, so they used all kinds of methods to stop her from practicing the exercises. However, after she crossed her legs in the lotus position, none of the strong criminals could move them down even though they tried very hard and finally became tired. Auntie Wang always crossed her legs and did the hand gestures when she sent forth righteous thoughts. The criminals could not push her down. The police instigated the criminals to cover her up with a blanket to make breathing difficult for her, and also told them to kick and beat her. There was one prisoner who hit Auntie Wang for eighteen days. During that period, she suffered wounds on her body every day. Sometimes, in order to send forth righteous thoughts or practice the sitting meditation, she had to struggle with the criminals for four to five hours.

On September 6, 2002, Dafa practitioner Auntie Liu (in her fifties) was kidnapped and brought into the detention center from her home. She was put in the same cell with Auntie Wang. At that time, Auntie Wang was emaciated because of a long-term hunger strike, but she was still glowing with health and in a very good spiritual state. Her condition made the prisoners and the evil police in the cells recognize the supernormal nature of Dafa.

Every day, as soon as the two of them practiced the exercises and sent forth righteous thoughts together, the criminals in the cell would jump around like crazy when they saw it. Some beat them, some pinched them, and some pulled at their legs. When they saw that the hard torture didn't work, they tried soft ways. Auntie Liu and Auntie Wang were not moved at all. In the end, the police told the prisoners, "None of you could change them, so from now on, you should not beat them any more." As time passed by, the prisoners in the cell were all touched by their great compassion and tolerance and never again restrained them from practicing the exercises anymore. Just like this, Aunties Liu and Wang practiced the exercises every day and sent forth righteous thoughts every hour with dignity.

Because they had always been on hunger strike to protest the persecution, the police and criminals force-fed them. They resisted the evil people. The police asked the criminals to carry them over every day, and let the criminals hold down their arms and legs and pull their hair so they could forcibly insert tubes into their noses. Sometimes the ladies almost suffocated. During the force-feeding, as long as they could speak, they would shout, "Falun Dafa is Good!" Once the evil police and the criminals heard "Falun Dafa is Good," they became terrified, and stopped their evil deeds right away. Sometimes when the ladies saw other practitioners being carried out for force-feeding, they would also shout, "Falun Dafa is Good!" When this happened, the police would run to the office and tell the criminals to cover their mouths up.

Currently, Auntie Wang has been secretly and illegally sentenced to five years imprisonment and sent to Harbin City female prison. Auntie Liu was sent to Harbin City drug rehabilitation center for three years of illegal forced labor. Because they discovered problems with Auntie Liu's health during the physical examination, she has been released on bail for medical treatment.
