(Clearwisdom.net) Editors' note: In both Western and Chinese cultures, 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 acts that are in harmony with this principle, while doing things 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.

Military Officer Ma Junmin of the 149th Regiment Received Karmic Retribution

Military officer Ma Junmin of the 149th Regiment closely followed Jiang Zemin's regime since the persecution of Falun Gong began on July 20, 1999 and actively persecuted Dafa practitioners. Ma often insulted Teacher and ordered others to brutally persecute Dafa practitioners. One practitioner was sent to reform-through-labor and others were sent to forced labor camps. He detained 16 practitioners, forced 3 practitioners to become destitute and homeless, and often harassed practitioners and their families at home, greatly interfering with their normal lives and causing them much stress and anguish.

Not long after Ma Junmin was transferred to the 143th Regiment, he suddenly died in his office just after his 50th birthday. This is another example of the ancient law, that good deeds results in good returns and evil deeds receive retribution. Ma Junmin received retribution here for his persecution of Falun Gong practitioners.

Former Shenyang Artillery Institute Military Officer Wang Xili Died Suddenly

Wang Xili, male, 54 years old, former Shenyang Artillery Military Institute officer, closely followed the Jiang regime's decree to persecute Dafa practitioners. On every festival or sensitive date, he hung banners that slandered Dafa and Dafa practitioners on every main road and intersection of the Shenyang Artillery Institute.

Wang Xili died from cancer on November 23, 2008. Here I advise those still in confusion to quickly awaken, do not to be a victim of Jiang's group, and quit the Chinese Communist Party and its affiliated groups in order to save your life.
