The Manager of a Company: "I Really Wish that All My Employees Were Falun Gong Practitioners."

After Ms. Li Mei, a Falun Gong practitioner, graduated with a doctorate degree from a famous university in China, she stayed on with the university as a lecturer. She also spearheaded research on a specific topic of study and soon became the backbone of the research team. Li Mei went to Tiananmen Square to clarify the truth of Falun Gong and the persecution in the summer of 2001. The police arrested her and she was sentenced to a one and a half year prison term. Li Mei's prison term was extended for another 6 months, as refused to renounce Falun Dafa. She returned to the university after serving her prison term. Ms. Li's boss at the university still wanted her to be the lead person to continue the research project. Her salary, housing, vehicle allowance and other benefits all remained the same. However, she was told that she must make a choice between Falun Gong and her reputation and status in the university. Li Mei replied that she should be entitled to both.

A few days later, her university boss responded that of the two choices provided, she could only select one. Li Mei replied that it was impossible for her to give up the practice of Falun Gong. On that same day, Li Mei left her workplace and returned to her hometown. She later found a job in a large company. In the interview with the company executive, Li Mei straightforwardly informed the executive that she is a Falun Gong practitioner.

The manager replied that he had no qualms about her being a Falun Gong practitioner. He said: "I can hire you on a probationary basis for three months. During the trial period, you will be paid only for living expenses. A formal employment contract will be drawn up after the probationary period if both of us agree. If either one is dissatisfied, then please find another job."

However, the manager began to urge Li Mei to sign the employment contract after less than a month's trial. She was offered the highest salary, as he highly appreciates her abilities, attitude and personality. The manager said that he really wished that all his employees were Falun Gong practitioners. He also frequently reminds her to be careful and to put her Falun Gong books in the safest place.

Death Row Inmate: "If We Had Begun The Cultivation of Falun Dafa Earlier, We Wouldn't Have Committed Crimes Like Murder and Arson."

In the year 2000, practitioner Xiao Wang was sentenced to prison because of his persistence in the practice of Falun Gong. He was imprisoned in the same cell with criminals who had been sentenced to death and were awaiting execution by firing squad.

These inmates bullied him initially. He was forced to scrub the prison floor and empty and clean the urinals. A limited number of steamed buns were available at mealtime. The inmates fought for and snatched the food as soon as it was served. Xiao Wang often did not get anything to eat. He took things lightly and seemed not to mind.

The inmates asked Xiao Wang about what crimes he had committed to end up in prison. Young Wang replied that he had not violated any law, but was imprisoned because he practiced Falun Gong. He was persecuted and sent to prison. Xiao Wang took the opportunity from then on to tell the truth of Falun Gong and the persecution to the inmates, since they did not know what Falun Gong was. The Great Law touched each and every inmate's heart.

After the inmates understood the truth, they all sobbed and said, "If we had known about and began the cultivation of Falun Dafa earlier, we wouldn't have committed crimes like murder and arson. We can only blame ourselves!"

Thereafter, at mealtimes, the inmates had consideration and respect for each other. The same quantity of steamed buns was served, but there was plenty for everyone, and no one went hungry. The entire room was filled with a serene atmosphere of understanding.

Just before his execution, an inmate said to Xiao Wang, "Elder brother, please allow me to have your toothbrush. I'd like to trade mine with yours to keep as a souvenir. In my next life, I'd like to do Falun Dafa cultivation."

Two months later, Xiao Wang was released from prison.
