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 compassionate reminder 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.

Cases in Jingjing County, Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province

Former Vice County Executive Liang Desuo and former Politics and Law Committee Party Secretary Zheng Guangzhi wantonly persecuted Falun Gong practitioners in their incumbency. They held five countywide brainwashing classes in five different locations, once at Cangyanshan, twice at Xiantaishan, another twice at Peng Village. In a very corrupt manner, villages and towns held brainwashing classes many times, detaining and cruelly beating up Falun Gong practitioners. During their stay in office, the two officials put 25 Falun Gong practitioners into labor camps. Among them, three were sentenced to four years, and two were sentenced to three and a half years. Persecutors Liang Desuo and Zheng Guangzhi have both since been demoted and dismissed from office.

Former superintendent of Xiulin Town Police Station was very cruel in undertaking his duties. He tortured practitioners terribly. Later, he was relegated to Weizhou Police Station, where he continuously did wrong and further intensified his persecution. He sent three practitioners from Gudi Village to labor camps. In December 2003, he was severely injured by an explosion, permanently disfiguring his face.

The above cases are only a few instances of karmic retribution for evildoing. Still however, there are other people in power who persecute Falun Gong practitioners. Offering salvation to people is a Falun Gong practitioner's mission. It is a divine principle that good will be rewarded with good and evil with evil.
