1. I Held the Thought That My Fate Is Arranged by Master
The year 2000 was a year when the evil was most rampant. The local police were stationed in the workplace. They called all Dafa disciples into the party secretary's office and asked each person if they would still practice Falun Gong. If so, they would be arrested or dismissed from their job. Faced with pressure and against their conscience, many said that they would not practice. When it was my turn, the police asked if I would still practice. I said “Yes!” The police said, “Don't say anymore. Take her away!” I was then illegally detained and taken to the detention center.
At that time, I did not study the Fa in-depth and did not know how to send forth righteous thoughts. However, I understood the principle that cultivators are looked after by Master and that our fate is decided by Master. I held this thought, and that nobody can touch me. I went home after one month. During this period, I did not co-operate with any order or instructions from the guards.
2. “Cultivate the Universal Dafa to the End!”
I became the focus of the local authorities since I did not co-operate with them.
On September 1, 2004 the police broke into my home and asked, “Do you still want to practice? If you do, we will arrest you.” I said, “Yes!” I was arrested and held in the detention center. I thought that since I am here, I would let go of my attachments and validate Dafa. I knew I must be on the Fa, and I would memorize the Fa every chance I had. Other than memorizing the Fa, I sent forth righteous thoughts and did the exercises. There were surveillance cameras in the dormitory. The guards said that if this is seen by upper management, they would have even more reason to not release me. I thought to myself that in this universe, other than Master, no one has the final say, so I did the exercises in front of the surveillance cameras.
One day, the police came to interrogate me. They closed the door and threatened to attack me. At that moment, a thought suddenly appeared in my mind, “The Falun and the energy mechanisms and large energy channels installed by Master are in my body; so nobody can touch me!” After I had this thought, I saw the two guards immediately became listless.
They politely asked me to sit down, saying this was the last time they would interrogate me, and I should answer correctly; otherwise they would sentence me. They asked me this and that and even wanted me to betray other practitioners. But I would not say what they wanted. Finally they asked me again if I would still practice. I blurted out a sentence, “Cultivate the universal Dafa to the end!” When I finished saying this sentence resolutely and decisively, the two guards got up hurriedly and said, “We can't manage this anymore! Send her away quickly!”
The next day, I went home.
At that time, I was quite puzzled and wondered what just happened. It was not until February 26, 2005 when Master published “Teaching the Fa at the Western U.S. International Fa Conference” that I finally understood.
“If upon encountering trying circumstances your thinking can be truly righteous, then, when faced with the evil's persecution and when faced with interference, just one sentence of yours fortified with steadfast righteous thoughts can instantly make the evil disintegrate (applause), and it will make those who are being used by the evil turn and flee, it will make the evil's persecution of you dissolve, and it will make the evil's interfering with you disappear without a trace. One thought born of righteous faith is all it takes. And whoever can hold firm that righteous thought and go the distance will become a magnificent god forged by Dafa.” (“Teaching the Fa at the Western U.S. International Fa Conference” in 2005)
Since then, I looked inward and worked even harder to study the Fa and cultivate my every word and deed. I enlightened that every word by Master is a heavenly secret and there are layers and layers of cosmic bodies and countless divine beings.
3. I Went Into Another Dimensional Field and Miraculously Escaped
On May 11, 2013 a total of six practitioners were traveling together. At the train station ticket checkpoint, we were arrested by a few plainclothes police. They snatched away our tickets and grabbed my arm. I said, “Let go of me. Don't touch me.” That person let go immediately. We were taken to an area outside the station, where two cars were already stationed. I saw that there were at least six to seven plainclothes officers.
At that moment, I calmed down and Master's poem immediately came to mind,
“My one thought stunned the firmament and beyond –
I wanted to save all beings and rid all that's harmful
Countless layers of the rotten Old Force impeded my path
Entering the human world, I realized things were worse
Rectifying Fa as I go, penetrating all layers of the cosmos
All choosing to oppose the rectification were eliminated
When Heaven wishes for change, who'd dare obstruct?
The cosmos, now rebuilt, will never again turn bad”
(“Rectifying the Fa” in Hong Yin III)
At that time, I did not have any distracting thoughts. It was as though I went into the state of practicing the exercises. Immediately, I felt that I had gone into another dimensional field and realized that this situation, the scene in front of my eyes, was illusory, like a shadow. These police were busy with their own things and simply had nothing to do with me. They did not notice me and could not even see me. I was as calm as water; there were no waves in my inner heart, and I did not have a single attachment of fear. I picked up my bag (there were some Dafa books inside), and under the eyes of the police, I walked past them. I disregarded everyone and did not look at them. However, I needed to go past the police car. I even stood beside the police car for a while before my feet started to move slowly. My feet were especially light, and it was as though I was floating. I turned around and walked to the main street. Just then, a small electric car drove towards me. I flagged it with my hand and boarded. I gave my destination, and the small electric car drove off at lightning speed and cast aside the scene, such that those officers that persecuted me were far, far away.
4. The Attachment of Feeling Scared Afterwards Attracted Persecution
It was only when I reached home that I emerged from that state. After returning, that divine state disappeared and up came the attachment of fear. I recited the Fa repeatedly, but it was of no use. I told my husband that something happened. Although my husband did not cultivate, he had been supportive of Dafa. He suggested with concern that I hide for a while. At that time, I did not have righteous thoughts; thus I agreed. I prepared my clothes and left to go to a practitioner's house in another area. I flagged down a car, but this car went round and round the city and could not get out. It was afterwards that I finally understood, that this was Master enlightening me not to leave.
However, at that time, my mind was controlled by the evil and I only thought of getting out. At last, the car finally went out of the city. When I reached the place, I found that practitioner's house, but not without a lot of twists and turns. My mind reflected a sentence, “Why is this person not enlightened!” Finally, under the pursuit of my attachment, I found this practitioner's house. However, this practitioner was not at home, and her daughter received me. Her daughter is not a practitioner, but we are quite familiar with each other. She said, “You can stay here, Auntie.” Hence, I stayed at her house that night. However, I was awakened at midnight by the police breaking in. That night there was a local large arrest of Dafa disciples, so I was also taken away and sent to the detention center.
5. Since I Am Here, I Will Validate the Fa
At the detention center I looked inward, calmed down quickly, and adjusted myself. I thought that since I was here, I would validate the Fa. First, I created the environment of practicing the exercises and sending forth righteous thoughts. In any environment and condition, Dafa disciples should also do the three things well. Initially, there was an old guard who cursed at me every day. I sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil factors behind the guard.
Later, I enlightened to what Master said,
“We negate even the very emergence of the old forces and everything that they've arranged; we don't even acknowledge their existence.” (“Teaching the Fa at the 2004 Chicago Conference”)
If Master does not acknowledge these, then neither do I. Even with the guards, I also would not acknowledge them and looked at them differently. I did not take the evil seriously. I held the kind thoughts, “Please remember Falun Dafa is good; Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good; this can bring good blessings to your life” into his mind. From then on, when this older guard patrolled my room, he would lower his head and go past it. He did not dare to look at me.
There was also a female guard who would yell when I sent forth righteous thoughts, “Don't send forth righteous thoughts. The surveillance cameras are connected to the internet. The police team can all see it! Stop sending!” I did not stop. Instead, I held my palm erect and sent forth righteous thoughts at her. Then I enlightened that under this special environment, it is not a matter of holding my palm erect or not. When I held my palm erect, I felt that the energy flow was very strong, and it really had an air of supremacy and of destroying all the evil in the cosmos.
Afterwards, she talked to me and said that my performance was not good. I clarified the truth to her, but she refused to listen and said that she had been a guard for more than 30 years and knows more than I do. She even told me that there are only two paths placed in front of me; one is to go home; one is to go to prison. I no longer spoke to her and I memorized a paragraph of Master's Fa,
“The understanding of the Truth of the cosmos by students of Dafa cultivation is an elevation that results from rational understanding and experience. It’s futile for human beings to refute—regardless of what their stance is—the Fa-principles of the cosmos, which transcend all theories in the human society.” (“Further Comments on Superstition” in Essentials for Further Advancement II)
Afterwards, she did not say anymore and did not swear. It was as though she did not see me at all.
6. Rectify All Who Are Not Righteous
The prisoners here were all arranged by the old forces, but they were all waiting for Dafa disciples to save them. There was a girl that I slept next to who stopped me and said, “Why are you still practicing? It is affecting our rest.” I sent forth righteous thoughts immediately and entered kind thoughts into her mind. The next day, this girl put both hands in the Heshi position and apologized to me, “It was my fault yesterday, Auntie. I will never, ever tell you not to practice again.” A woman in her 30s said, “The head prisoner said that your body became healthy after practicing. We were shocked. The guards are swearing at us every day! Let's not be bothered by it anymore. The government cannot even manage [them], how can we manage them? Let her practice!”
In the whole cell, there was a maximum of 16 people, and at least 14 people learned the truth about Dafa. They memorized Hong Yin with me every day. Everyone recited in unison,
“Think twice about your savagery, oh wicked ones
When Heaven and Earth are bright again,
down to the boiling cauldron shall you go
Little can punches and kicks change a person’s heart
Violent winds usher in an autumn with harsher chill”
(“The Chill of Autumn's Winds” in Hong Yin Vol. II)
I felt that this scene was really peaceful and free. Dafa can change all human attachments and rectify all those who are not righteous.
They even said that all my things are from Dafa. This was also to enlighten me. Previously, I always thought this way: that this is mine, and that is yours. Actually, our lives are created and saved by Dafa. Why is there an attachment of difference? I remembered that when a practitioner's house was raided by the evil, the police asked who the computer and printer belonged to. This practitioner told the police that none of the things there belong to him. The police asked again who it belonged to. This practitioner said that it all belongs to Dafa. In the end, the police did not dare to touch a single thing.
7. Two Large Magpies on the Tree Called out to Me
When I was held for more than 20 days, the police officers interrogated me. They attempted to take advantage of a loophole through questioning me, and they even asked about my relationship with other practitioners. I did not say anything. Finally, I said righteously to the police, “Listen, whatever it is that you ask, I will not say and do not know. Listen carefully, I am a disciple of Master Li Hongzhi. I do not want and will not acknowledge any other arrangements. I will cultivate the universal Dafa as firm as a rock and indestructible like diamond to the end!” When I finished speaking, the public security officers immediately said, “We can't manage her. We will write down whatever she says. If she doesn't know it, so be it.”
At that time, I did not enlighten that if I continued to tell them that I was not guilty, they should release me. If I had enlightened to this, they would have released me immediately. Master said,
“When the Dafa disciples' righteous thoughts are a bit stronger, everything will be changed by the Dafa disciples and the evil will be eliminated. Then what will the bad people amount to? Aren't those few bad people doing these things under the evil's control? When the evil is eliminated and you stand in front of that person, will he dare to say a single negative word [about Dafa] to you? Facing a god, he won't dare.” (“Teaching the Fa in San Francisco, 2005”)
“An everyday person is feeble before a cultivator.” (“Teaching the Fa at the Washington, DC International Fa Conference”)
After a few days, they could not get hold of any loopholes and released me, as they had no choice.
The day I walked out of the detention center, two big magpies on a tree called out to me. I put both of my hands in the Heshi position towards the sky and with tears flowing down, I said to Master, “Thank you, Master. I have once again let Master worry about me.”
I have enlightened these years that if your righteous thoughts are sufficient and as long as you maintain righteous thoughts and send out the most pure righteous thoughts, this thought will really be super powerful. It can pass through layers and layers of dimensional fields and destroy all the evil arrangements at once. Do not be deluded by the illusions of ordinary people, and do not be intimidated by the evil madness. When you do not have any human attachments, what you say is really like what Master said, “Don't worry about what they say, [but] every word that you say is like a thunderclap to them.” (“Teaching the Fa in San Francisco, 2005”)
