Do not cooperate with the evil no matter what the situation

I was taken to a brainwashing center on September 27, 1999. Although the guards didn’t allow practitioners to do the exercises or to study the Fa, I memorized Hong Yin and did the exercises after the guards fell asleep at midnight. Seven days later, I managed to escape the brainwashing center. I later travelled to Tiananmen Square with fellow practitioners to tell people the truth about Falun Gong. This was in September 2000. We shouted, “Falun Dafa is good! Restore Master's innocence!” and also extended banners that read, “Falun Dafa Is Good.” After we returned home however, the police took us to prison and tortured us.

As a result of being beaten, all my teeth were loose. Officials interrogated me again and again. I told them that by practicing Falun Dafa, my health and character both improved tremendously, so why wouldn't I talk to others to clarify the truth?

The officials got flustered and angry and slapped my face really hard. I didn't know what to say. That night I lay under a thin blanket, shivering with cold. Remembering that Master taught us that everything came from the Fa, I began to memorize and recite the Fa and search inward, looking for my attachments. After I recited “Eliminate Your Last Attachment(s)” five times, I started to sweat all over. I felt my body, mind, and my entire dimensional field were immersed in Master’s immense compassion.

I realized it was not because of physical problems that I was shivering, it was because of the substance the old forces had pushed on me. After identifying my attachments and letting go of fear, the evil factors in other dimensions disintegrated. When the officials interrogated me the next day, their attitude had changed radically. After taking a few simple notes, they ended the interrogation and didn’t question me again. Throughout the following days I explained the truth to the guards and spent the rest of the time studying and memorizing the Fa.

It was very difficult to study the Fa in prison. I could only memorize some of Master’s teachings. The only copy of Zhuan Falun was written on cloth and the words were not very clear. In addition, it was shared among several dozen practitioners. One day when I was sitting in meditation, I saw that in another dimension I was holding and reading a large, golden, shiny copy of Zhuan Falun. Suddenly, a guard opened the cell door and called my name. I enlightened that it was Master reminding me to study the Fa more.

Everything is under Master’s control. Several days later, a guard opened the door and called my name, telling me to pack my things and go home. I glanced at the guard and saw that he was the same one I saw while sitting in meditation.

In 2002, I was arrested again and my home was ransacked. As soon as the police broke into my house, I sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil factors behind them so that they would be unable to see any Falun Gong materials. As a result, they didn’t take anything. The police took me into custody and tortured me brutally. My face was disfigured due to the brutal beating. I was also subjected to a brutal torture called “Tying the ropes(1).” The guards tightly bound me with several thin nylon ropes. However, my heart remained unaffected. I knew Master had endured so much for me. If not, I couldn’t have endured such awful torture.

In September 2005, I was arrested for the third time and taken to a detention center. Every morning, I recited Lunyu nine times and then continuously sent forth righteous thoughts. I knew I was not supposed to be in this place and that I needed to get out and save sentient beings. Meanwhile, I sent out another thought, “Let everyone here with predestined relationships come and listen to the truth.” I then used my time there to clarify the truth to everyone detained there.

Interestingly, two of my friends were also held there. Although I had explained the truth to them many times before, they had been deeply poisoned by the CCP's lies and didn’t listen to me. This time, however, they agreed to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations without hesitation.

After I finished helping people in that cell quit the Party's organizations, I was transferred to another cell, where I clarified the truth to another group of people. Things went on like this until I was released one week later. When I got out of the detention center, I had a long list of names of people who had renounced the Party to publish online.

After I returned home, my family members told me that when they had gone to the police department and urged officials to release me, the police department head had said, “Tell the practitioners to stop posting truth-clarifying materials. Whenever we arrest another practitioner, every day we receive numerous calls from foreign countries, such as the United States and Canada.”

The three detentions made me realize that, as a Dafa disciple, we should keep righteous thoughts at every moment. As Master taught us,

“No matter what the situation, do not cooperate with the evil’s demands, orders, or what it instigates.”
(“Dafa Disciples’ Righteous Thoughts are Powerful,” Essentials for Further Advancement II)

Unlocking doors with supernatural powers

A practitioner from another city moved to my city in the spring of 2005 and set up a material production site in his home. Once, after he distributed the materials with another practitioner in a village, the police took them into custody. This practitioner kept many Dafa books and the equipment to produce materials in his home. He had his house key with him.

At that time, only a few practitioners knew this. My job was to transfer all the equipment out of his home. Because the practitioner’s house was located near a busy street, it was very dangerous to move the equipment out during the day. Finally, a fellow practitioner and I decided to do it the next day.

The evening before, we sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate all the evil factors in other dimensions affecting that the practitioner’s house and asked Master to help us successfully transfer the equipment. The next morning, we went to his home. When we saw two police vehicles in front of the house, we entered from the backyard by climbing over the walls. We opened the main door and went to the bedroom door. However, we couldn’t open the bedroom door even though we sent forth righteous thoughts in front of it for ten minutes. I realized I was already getting anxious and a little afraid.

I immediately adjusted myself and sent forth strong righteous thoughts again with the fellow practitioner. Five minutes later, the practitioner pulled the door and it opened easily. We successfully moved everything out in about 30 minutes.

Saving sentient beings with predestined relationships

After I got out of the detention center in 2005, I bought a computer and a printer, and set up a material production site at home. Although I had never touched a computer before, Dafa gave me wisdom, and I was able to quickly learn computer skills and produce truth-clarifying materials.

One evening I distributed the materials in a remote village with an elderly practitioner. We each covered half of the village, planning to get together at the end of the village. After I finished my part, however, I couldn’t find him. After waiting for him for quite a long time, I got very anxious and started to worry about him I went back to the village and tried to get his attention by coughing. Meanwhile, I asked Master for help. I met up with the practitioner again shortly after. He told me that he had gone in the wrong direction and had waited for me at the other end of the village. After waiting a long time, he also sent forth righteous thoughts and asked Master for help. In the end, he heard me coughing and walked back quickly. By then, it was already very late. The village was nearly 15 kilometers away from our city. As we walked, I thought, “How nice it would be if a taxi came along.” With just this thought, a taxi appeared, and we took it home.

Another evening I went out to hang banners with another practitioner. We posted 18 banners in all, as well as other materials. When we had almost finished distributing all the materials, we saw two police vehicles blocking both ends of the lane. We immediately sent forth righteous thoughts and asked Master for help. We slipped away from the police and returned home safely.

As cultivators, we should do well in every environment to better validate the Fa.

A lady once left her handbag in my store and came back half an hour later. After I returned the handbag to her, she wanted to invite me to dinner. I thanked her sincerely and took the opportunity to tell her the facts about Dafa. I also persuaded her to quit the Party organizations. She agreed and before she left, she enthusiastically said, “Falun Dafa is good!”

On another occasion, a mother and daughter came to shop in my store and left a handbag with over 2,000 yuan in it. The following morning, they came back. They opened the bag and counted the money very carefully. I told them, “I am a Falun Gong practitioner. Anything left in my store won’t be lost.” I then clarified the truth to them and they quit the Party's organizations.

One day, a woman came to my store. I welcomed her and asked how I could help her. However, she didn’t say anything and sat in my store after all the other customers had left. I thought she must have come to hear the truth, so I asked her, “Have you heard about doing the three withdrawals for your safety?” As a result, she asked me to help her whole family quit the Party's organizations. It turned out that she had been given a copy of Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party and many truth-clarifying materials when she went for a walk with her husband. The couple read the book and the materials at home and already understood the truth. They were eager to have someone to help them declare their intention to quit the CCP.

Another day three elderly women came to my store. The oldest one said to me, “We just went to a drugstore. Being of such an age, discomfort often visits us.” I asked, “Were you ever given any Falun Gong materials? I’m a Falun Gong practitioner. In the past, I suffered from all kinds of diseases. But see how well I am now. For the past ten years, I haven’t had any illnesses.” I then clarified the truth to them and helped them all quit the Party organizations. Afterwards, the three women came again and helped their family members quit the Party.

Once two practitioners visited my store and saw their friends there. We then clarified the truth together. Gradually, more and more people gathered, and in the end, nine people quit the Party at the same time.

Another time a man came to shop in my store. He appreciated how well I treated him and was very pleased. I told him the facts about Falun Gong and persuaded him to do the three withdrawals. He said very seriously, “I’m from a police department.” I said, “No matter what your position is, you still need to understand the truth!” He nodded. I then asked, “You must be a Party member, aren’t you? Please quit it.” He agreed and he told me that he would bring his wife next time so she could quit, also.

******************************

Looking back on my cultivation over the past over ten years, it is by righteous belief in Master and Dafa that I have been able to reach the point where I am today. I deeply feel that Master is right near me at every moment. My appreciation for Master is beyond words. Only by studying the Fa well, doing the three things well, and saving more sentient beings can I repay Master!

Note:

(1)Tying the ropes - This torture involves putting a thin nylon rope around the back of a person’s neck, and then wrapping it around both shoulders down to each arm loop by loop, and then over each hand. The rope is tightened to its limit and cuts into the flesh. Both arms are forced behind the back and raised to the extreme, and then both thumbs are tied with a rope and fastened to the rope that goes around the back of the neck. The victim is then kicked to kneel down on the floor. The rope is released about an hour later, and then the person is tied up like this again a second time, then a third time…See illustration on http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2004/10/5/53164.html
