(Clearwisdom.net) I am a Falun Gong practitioner in my thirties. Since July 20, 1999, when Jiang and his political followers started persecuting Falun Gong, my husband and my mother-in-law were deceived and frightened by the propaganda and lies in Jiang's media. Fearful for my safety, they were against my practicing Dafa, and they didn't allow me to have any contact with my fellow practitioners. The situation at home got quite tense. Whenever fellow practitioners came to visit me, they were treated like criminals on trial by my family. My family members even reported my fellow practitioners to the street committee. Later, when I went out of town to distribute truth-clarifying material, the local people who didn't know the facts about the persecution reported me to the authorities. I was then illegally arrested and sent to a labor camp where I was tortured. Under duress, I was brainwashed and forced to renounce my belief. After I got out, moved by Teacher's boundless benevolence, and with the help of fellow practitioners, I awakened and got on the path of cultivation again. I also frequently clarified the truth to my family members, giving them Dafa books and articles from Minghui net [Clearwisdom net is the English version of Minghui net] to read. Gradually, they changed their attitude toward Falun and me, and allowed me to practice.

I also read the book Zhuan Falun [main teachings of Falun Dafa] to my mother-in-law. After she came to understand it, my mother-in-law said, "Isn't this a righteous Fa? Why don't they allow people to practice it?" I said, "It is only because of Jiang who is jealous of the fact that so many people practice it and wants to suppress it. He has deceived an untold number of people!" My mother-in-law even said, "After I recover from my illness, I will go with you to practice Falun Dafa." She also let her son practice Dafa. Because my husband was very short-tempered, irritable and often got exasperated, I talked to him about the Dafa principles, I told him about Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance, and that people should have respect for others, and should treat everyone with kindness and tolerance.

My husband always likes me to talk to him about the principles contained in Zhuan Falun where Teacher explains to people how to behave themselves and be good people. He often reads Dafa books, and watches and listens to the truth-clarifying CDs and tapes. Once, after listening to programs from the Falun Dafa broadcast station, he said, "I really want to go out on the street and shout out loud, 'Falun Dafa is good'!" Seeing the change in him that came from deep within, I was happy for him and admired him. I said to him, "What is a real man? Only one with a sense of justice is a real man."

After watching the truth-clarifying CD which exposed that Jiang sold state territory for personal gain, he said angrily, "If only there is a power source, I would bring my TV set onto the street to show people and let all people know what bad things Jiang has done to Dafa, to the people and to the country. I will awaken people's righteousness and kindness in their hearts." He also took Dafa truth-clarifying material to neighbors' homes. He said, "Clarifying the truth should be done in an open-and-dignified manner because you people are open and upright!"

Now, my husband understands me well and supports me in my practice. Once a policeman asked him, "Is your wife practicing Falun Gong again?" He replied rightfully, "Since it is good, why not?" In the face of his awe-inspiring righteousness, the policeman kept his mouth shut and never bothered him again.

Whenever fellow practitioners come to our house, regardless of the hour, he welcomes them with open arms and offers suggestions for their convenience, and never gets tired of it. When conflicts arise between us two, and when fellow practitioners come to visit, he would voluntarily explain the situation to my fellow practitioners and admit his mistakes. When our neighbors downstairs have a quarrel, he would say, "This won't happen to people who practice Falun Dafa! They all want to be good people following Teacher's requirement."

Now, my husband's temper has changed a lot for the better; he knows to think of other people, and to look within for his own problems. As he learns more about Dafa, I believe he will increasingly assimilate to Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance, and become a really good person!
