(Clearwisdom.net) I started practicing Falun Gong together with my mother in 1996. My son is also a little Dafa disciple. We had a practice site in our home at that time, and every day there were a dozen practitioners studying the Fa together. When I read the book Zhuan Falun for the first time, I suddenly felt that my mind was open and clear. I thought, "This is the universal Dafa that I have been looking for all my life, and it will guide me back to my true home."

On the evening of July 20, 1999, the day that the persecution began, my mother and other practitioners were taking the train to Beijing, and I did not go because my child was very small. At midnight, the police searched my home but did not find my mother, and they asked me to find her immediately. I told them, "My mother did not do anything wrong, and practitioners are all good people." They said, "It's useless to talk to us. We are following direct orders from above." My husband is a non-practitioner. He felt the situation was very serious. He knew the Communist Party too well, and he was very concerned about me.

I did not have any fear at all. I stayed calm, knowing that evil cannot suppress a righteous mind. The Buddha Fa's spreading in the secular world is of cosmic significance. The goodness that created all life is bound to stir up the evil in the universe. I found out the next day that my mother and the other practitioners had been intercepted by the police. The evil regime was starting its full-scale persecution against Falun Gong. Our practice site disappeared, and many practitioners lost contact with each other. Some were fired from their jobs, and those who were not working had their IDs withheld and were not allowed to leave their homes.

All news and information was blocked where we lived, and from then on, we did not have any information about Dafa. Furthermore, we did not know how to deal with the persecution, or what we should do. Fortunately, we had the thought that we should believe in Master and Dafa because our Master is the most righteous. Perhaps, because of this very thought, I was protected by Master and thus avoided much harassment and persecution. For instance, I once went to another small town for errands, and found the exit road guarded by police who were forcing everyone to step on Master's picture. If one refused to do so, they would be identified and arrested for practicing Falun Gong. I thought, "I wouldn't do something like this willingly, but their despicable behavior makes them look as insignificant as mosquitos in my eyes." When the bus drove to the intersection, I did not have any fear, then a few policemen looked at all the passengers and walked off the bus. Just like what Master taught: good and bad comes from your spontaneous thought, and if you are not moved, then no evil can move you.

Later I moved to another city, but I could not get in touch with any other practitioners, nor receive any Dafa materials. As a result, I slacked off with my Fa-study and practice. However, I got acquainted with another practitioner not long after that, and I believe that this was arranged by Master. I was so excited, as if I had been reunited with a long lost relative. I was able to receive Master's lectures and Dafa materials again.

I found out later that the city I used to live in had no way to get Dafa materials, therefore, I used freight information system software to send Dafa materials to them. I did that until they had their own material production center, and never ran into any problems. One day I got into a car accident and could not walk for two weeks, but I had the Fa in my heart, so I was soon back to normal.

In late 2005, the materials production center where I used to live was destroyed. All practitioners at the center were arrested, and I was also implicated. My family members were frightened and reprimanded me, and they wanted to burn all my Dafa books and materials. However, I did my best to protect what is most valuable to me. My solid belief in Master and Dafa enabled me to break away from immediate danger of arrest. The old forces were struggling to survive, but continued to add more of a financial burden on us. We ended up facing unprecedented financial problems. We had difficulty paying our child's tuition, and there were also troubles for me and my husband at work. I recognized that these were all the old forces' doing, and that I must eliminate them. No evil forces can block my path of cultivation, and I only follow what Master has arranged for me. I know that I have waited lifetime after lifetime for the Fa, so no one can touch the Fa in my heart.
