(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.

Chengde City Judicial Bureau Cadre Jingfang Li Died Suddenly

Jingfang Li, in her 50s, worked at the Judicial Bureau in Chengde City. After July 1999, Li was transferred to the brainwashing center and specialized in persecuting Falun Dafa practitioners. She was very active in torturing and "transforming" practitioners. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) saw that she was very good at what she did and sent her to Shijiazhuang City to study persecution techniques. She pretended to be a practitioner to deceive them and weaken their faith. She deceived practitioners by calling out to Dafa's Teacher day in and day out, while at the same time actively persecuting practitioners.

In the spring of 2008, Li suddenly developed severe hypertension and died shortly thereafter.

Middle School Teacher Zhizhang Wang, Who Participated in the Persecution of Dafa, Killed in a Car Accident

Zhizhang Wang, 56, was a middle school teacher at the Zhenghua Middle School in Malianzhuang Township, Laixi City, Shandong Province. After the CCP began the persecution of Falun Gong in July 1999, he closely followed the CCP's instructions and wrote many slogans to be put up in many villages slandering Dafa. A few practitioners told him the truth about Falun Dafa, but he would not listen. He responded by saying, "I will do anything as long as they pay me."

On January 31, 2009 (the 6th day of the Lunar New Year), Wang was killed in a car accident.

Director of the Zhaoyuan Residence Committee in Shandong Province Duan Qinlian Received Karmic Retribution after Tearing Down Truth Clarification Posters

Duan Qinlian, in her 50s, was the Director of the Chengnan District Residence Committee in Zhaoyuan City, Shandong Province. She actively followed the CCP in persecuting Falun Dafa. She would tear down any truth clarification poster she saw in her administrative area. Not only did she tear down the posters herself, she also called on others to do the same. On several occasions practitioners went to clarify the truth to her and told her that all Dafa materials were for saving people, and whoever tore them down were doing bad deeds and would eventually meet with karmic retribution.

Duan ignored the practitioners and continued taking down Dafa posters. In November 2008, when she was driving her husband and a government official from Xinzhuang Township, their car fell into a ditch beside the motorway. Although the water was not deep and the car did not even fully sink into the water, she and her two passengers were all killed.
