Facts About the Persecution

The officials in the Xinglongshan Brainwashing Center in Changchun City brutally torture Dafa practitioners. They also don't allow the practitioners to see their families and don't allow their family members to send things to the practitioners. They isolate and forcibly brainwash Dafa practitioners everyday. In addition, they verbally abuse and torture the practitioners, don't allow them to sleep for many days in a row, threaten and intimidate the practitioners, and extort a 1000-Yuan monthly "fee" from the practitioners' families.

The Hongweixing Legal Education School in Daqing City is actually a brainwashing center. The Daqing City government and the Petroleum Administration Bureau jointly administer this center. Each session lasts two months. The practitioners would be further persecuted if they didn't give up Dafa. If they didn't write the "guarantee statements," they would be physically tortured and detained in solitary confinement for a long time, or they are forced to remain standing for long periods of time and are not allowed to sleep.

On April 21, 2003, Dafa practitioner Mr. Cui Xiaodong, head of the Weights and Measures Inspection Office from the Quality Technology Supervision Center in the Daqing City Petroleum Administration Bureau was taken to Party Secretary Ma Zhaolin's office. Ma threatened him and told him to write a "guarantee statement" to give up Falun Gong. Because Cui Xiaodong didn't cooperate, he was sent to the Hongweixing Legal Education School for further brainwashing and abuse. His family is not allowed to visit him.

A prison physician Luo at the Heizuizi Female Labor Camp deliberately twirled the rubber tube in my nose when he force-fed me, which caused my nose to become infected and swollen soon afterwards. Another prison physician Chen gave me shots during my hunger strike. He pricked my skin and poked my hand with the needle five to six times. Guard Wang Lihui often brutally beat Dafa practitioners, forcibly gave them intravenous drips, and force-fed them with food and drugs. Chief of No. 5 division, Wang Limei, often personally and brutally tortured the practitioners.

Practitioners Exchange Insights

This article and others written by fellow practitioners greatly moved me. I am just as they said in their articles - I didn't even have time to study the Fa or do the exercises. Sometimes I was an ordinary person doing Dafa work, and, once problems arose, I didn't look at them from the perspective of Fa. I always thought that I was right and didn't trust other practitioners. I didn't have the habit of truly looking inward. I was shutting myself off. Comparing these actions to Dafa, I dug out these bad and deeply hidden things that are easily overlooked but were hindering my improvement. I immediately felt light. I will study the Fa better, try to walk every step righteously and do well in the three things required of Dafa practitioners.

Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Actions

A fellow practitioner told me that their signature board was bought at a Dollar Tree store, so I went to a Dollar Tree store to look for a similar one but could not find one. I saw an Asian man and began talking to him. It turned out he had been in the city for only two days, and several days later his work would relocate him to another city. I told him the facts about Dafa. This coincidence made me realize that as long as we improve ourselves, we will not miss opportunities to save people.

The Facts and People's Hearts

1. On May 3, my father returned from Jiamusi City. On his train was a person wearing a facial mask and he was suspected of having SARS. Right after my father came to my home, the city immunization center quarantined him in my home, and people were afraid to visit us. My father used to be deceived by the lies from Jiang's regime but this time he asked me for the book Zhuan Falun.

2. One day I went to visit a friend and pressed the wrong doorbell. I looked around and found my friend's home. Half an hour later I left and was arrested by two security officers who had waited in ambush. I was scared and confused. Afterwards, I learned that they were watching for Falun Gong practitioners and mistakened me for one. I borrowed the book of Zhuan Falun and tried to learn why the practitioners didn't give up cultivation even under such pressure. I learned the truth and began cultivating. My stomach illness, bone spurs and stubborn headache have all disappeared since then.
