(Minghui.org) In May 2010, a non-practitioner friend of mine hurried to my home to tell me to quickly hide my Falun Gong books and materials, because if the agents from the 610 Office found them, they would take me to the brainwashing center to be persecuted. When I went to talk to the party secretary of my workplace to see if the 610 Office had been making inquires to arrest me, he said that he knew nothing about it.

A group of people came to take me to the brainwashing center in July of 2010, but the party secretary managed to keep them away from me. He said, “The person you want is an excellent worker. If you take her away, how will I explain it to the others?”

In October, after my son's wedding, the party secretary told me that he had tried his best to protect me and had been shouted at by his superiors several times. He then showed me some papers, and said that if I signed the guarantee statement the agents from the 610 Office would not take me to the brainwashing center. If I didn't sign it, he said that it wouldn't be long before they would come after me. I replied, “You are a good person, and you have suffered injustice for my belief. Please trust me that you will be rewarded for what you have done.” I went on to tell him that I would never do anything against my conscience and absolutely would not sign the papers.

Then I asked the gatekeeper at the main entrance of my workplace not to open the gate for police vehicles without notifying me first. The gatekeeper said he would. He knows the facts about Dafa, and I believed that he would keep his word. In November, a group of plainclothes police and officials from the Political and Legislative Affairs Committee came to my workplace in a black car. I was in the middle of giving a lecture when they arrived. As soon as the lecture was over, the party secretary told me in a panic, “They are here,” pointing towards the meeting room. My first thought was, “Master, please strengthen your disciple and give me wisdom.” At the same time I sent forth righteous thoughts to suppress the old force elements controlling the police.

Calmly but purposefully, I walked into the meeting room and said, “How are you? It's because of a predestined relationship that we meet.” The three people that had come to see me did not respond, and each of them had a blank expression on their face. The party secretary introduced their titles to me, but I did not hear it at all, because I had been intensively sending forth righteous thoughts. Two minutes later, one of them, who later became a good friend of mine and protected Dafa, started talking and asked me about my family and their occupations, and said I am really blessed. I grasped on the word “blessed” and started to clarify the facts to them. I said, “I am indeed blessed. Where does the blessing come from? In 2010, my workplace laid off Falun Gong practitioners, including me, and I lost my source of income. But under such difficulties, I wouldn't pick up money others lost on the street.” I was exposing the CCP's crimes to them, and at the same time letting them know of Falun Gong practitioners' nobility in the way we conduct ourselves. It was getting close to lunch time, so I told them that I will treat them to lunch, so that we could have more time to talk and understand each other. They then left in the black car without saying anything. I was very grateful for Master's strengthening. These people stopped interfering with me from then on, and came to understand the facts about Falun Gong.

The Education Director specifically came to my workplace to talk to me in March 2011, asking me to either sign a guarantee statement or go to the brainwashing center. I displayed all the statements on the table, letting everyone see them, and said, “These statements say that Falun Gong is a cult, please tell me how you can ask me to sign this?” The director and her subordinates only smiled out of embarrassment and did not answer. The party secretary quickly removed the statements, fearing that I would tear them up. The director said with a smile, “We have nothing to report to the higher authorities without your signature. If you don’t sign it, then you will have to go to the brainwashing center.” I replied in a humorous tone, “While ignoring the criminals in society, those in power are trying to take me to the brainwashing center. What a joke.” Then I said seriously, “If anyone dares to move in on me, I will call for help on the Internet, and expose these crimes to the entire world!” The director told me that they could stop my wages if I did not cooperate, as I was getting paid by the state. I quickly replied, “My wages are for the work I have done, it's not some support from the state.” The director did not reply and just smiled. I said to the director kindly, “If you help us practitioners today, you will surely be rewarded in the future.” She nodded, and her eyes looked kind and firm. I knew that she understood that Falun Gong practitioners are truly good people. She has not interfered with me since then, but protected me instead.

In May 2011, more than 10 people from the municipal 610 Office and the district 610 Office came to my workplace to talk to me. However, I refused to see them because I did not realize it was an opportunity to save them. They were furious. In June, agents from the municipal 610 Office ordered the district 610 Office to take me to the brainwashing center. The director of the district 610 Office called my son about it, and my son called a fellow practitioner and left a message for me to leave immediately. My righteous thoughts emerged, and I decided to meet with the people who made the decision to take me to a brainwashing center. I have Master protecting me, what am I afraid of?

I firmed up my righteous thoughts and went to the District Education Department first thing in the morning. I said to the director there, “Today I must meet with whomever wanted to see me last time.” The director made a phone call, and told the person on the other end that I was waiting in her office to see them. The person did not respond immediately, perhaps they were shocked by my actions, and then said, “Wait for us to call you back.” About an hour later, they called back and told them to bring me to their office. Then the director of the District Politics and Legislative Affairs Committee and District 610 Office, an officer from the education department, myself and the driver left in a car.

While we were driving, the director of the district 610 Office said, “It's good to have faith.” The person from the education department admired that my skin looks good with no wrinkles, and said, “It's good to practice qigong.” When we arrived at the municipal 610 Office a person there asked viciously, “Which one is Mrs. Gong?” I rose from the sofa and answered, “I am.” The person looked me up and down and said, “You look so vigorous, not like someone who is nearly 60.” One person who had driven with me agreed with her and replied, “Indeed. Mrs. Gong looks really healthy!”

The first person's attitude then softened, and asked me, “Are you still practicing Falun Gong?” I said with a smile, “From what you asked, I can tell that you don't know everything about Falun Gong.” I then started talking about what Falun Gong is, and they listened attentively. One of them asked, “Are you still reading Falun Gong books?”

I did not answer directly, but instead said, “You probably still remember a lot of Falun Gong books being confiscated and burned around the year 2000. After that, which press dares to publish Falun Gong books anymore? It would be quite difficult for anyone to find a copy today.” They nodded in agreement. A person from the municipal 610 Office then asked, “Practitioner A from your neighborhood was released from prison recently. Have you visited him?”

To continue exposing the crimes of the Chinese Communist Party, I asked seriously, “If you lived in the same compound as practitioner A, and you and everyone in the compound knew that this person is very good and was wrongfully imprisoned for eight years, wouldn't you visit him? And even if you visited him, would you be able to wipe off the blood and tears in his heart? Moreover, his parents died one after the other during those eight years. How many people can endure such pain?” They all looked sad. I said, “But still, with a strong heart and will, I believe that practitioner A will be able to handle these injustices that have taken in the past eight years.” They nodded and agreed with me.

A person from the municipal 610 Office soon started the “summary” speech. I did not listen to what she was saying, but stared into her eyes and kept sending forth righteous thoughts intensively.

When the three of us got up and left, the group of people from the municipal 610 Office shook hands with us and walked us to the elevator. I knew that they had understood a lot of things about Falun Gong. They never mentioned the brainwashing center again. I am also grateful that the two officials who learned the truth about Falun Gong and escorted me to the municipal 610 Office have chosen to stand on the side of justice.

Please point out anything improper from my sharing so we can improve together.
