(Minghui.org) I am a 67-year-old Falun Dafa practitioner who was fortunate to start practicing Falun Dafa in March 1999.
Several police officers came to my home to harass my daughter-in-law in early September 2015, because she had filed a criminal complaint against the former dictator Jiang Zemin for the persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners. They asked detailed questions, such as who asked her to sue Jiang and who printed the complaint letter.
It was not a coincidence that the police came to my place. Master must have arranged for them to be there so they could be told the facts about Falun Dafa. Since the police were not looking for me, I talked to them from the point of view of a third party.
Meeting Harassment with Righteous Behavior
As soon as I walked in, a police officer yelled at me to get out.
“It is a righteous thing to file criminal complaints against Jiang,” I said. “Why do you tell me to get out of my own home? What are you doing here?”
Another officer immediately asked me to sit down. I asked him, "If Jiang committed these crimes, does it matter who printed the complaint letter, and who asked my daughter-in-law to file the criminal complaints?” The officer said that it did not matter.
I asked who had ordered them to come into my home and harass my family. The officer answered that the order came from higher-ranking officials, but he did not know any details.
I told him, “I know who gave the order. The highest order came from former leader Jiang Zemin. Let me tell you, over 200,000 people have filed criminal complaints against Jiang. If Jiang asks you to kill, would you kill? Jiang's orders are always given to you verbally. When it is the time to find the individuals responsible for the death of practitioners, he won't acknowledge that it was his order. Consequently you will be held responsible and punished. Then, it will be too late for you to regret.”
I continued, “Jiang's regime harvested organs from living practitioners, and persecuted many practitioners to death. Many became disabled from torture when imprisoned. Countless families were broken apart. He has committed huge crimes.”
I then asked, “Why do practitioners talk to people about Dafa, despite risking their lives? All the lies on television by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) are meant to deceive you into opposing the innocent. Practitioners want to help you understand the facts, so you are not among those who suffer the karmic consequences when the CCP loses power.”
Ignore and Deflect Questions
The police asked me three times whether I was a practitioner.
Master said,
“When the evil ones ask whether you practice Falun Gong, you may ignore them or use other ways to deflect their questions. Don’t voluntarily let the evil take you away.” (“Rationality”, Essentials for Further Advancement II)
I understood that I should not cooperate with them. They should cooperate with me. Therefore, I asked again if it mattered who filed complaints against Jiang. They again said that it did not matter.
I then pointed to my daughter-in-law and said that I fully support her practice and her lawsuit against Jiang. I spoke of the health benefits she gained after she began to practice and that she no longer needed any medication.
“She is very loving and devoted to me,” I said. “Jiang deserved to be sued for persecuting so many good people like my daughter-in-law. In addition, the Teacher of Falun Dafa asks practitioners not to sue you since you are also victims. The CCP publicized falsehoods to incite hatred in people against Dafa. If you did not follow their orders, the CCP would have fired you. Now you have the opportunity to atone for your crimes. You should sue Jiang too!”
An officer asked me why I knew so much.
“I read the Falun Dafa truth-clarifying materials,” I said. “It is just like when you taste an apple: you know whether it is sweet or sour. You read the materials, and you will know the truth."
I then asked him whether practitioners should sue Jiang. He said they should. I warned them, “Then, you should not persecute practitioners anymore. The practitioners can sue Jiang without mentioning the police who followed the orders to persecute Dafa.”
The police claimed that they only wanted to verify if my daughter-in-law indeed filed a criminal complaint against Jiang. He asked for my phone number. I gave it and told him, “Please do not show up again. When Jiang is facing the court, call me and I will testify.” Then, they left.
In my city, the practitioners who have sued Jiang have been harassed by police. Some officers called them, and others went to their homes to harass them. Some even ransacked practitioners' homes and demanded that they sign a statement that they would give up practicing.
Police Must Understand the Facts about Falun Dafa
Practitioners in my city agreed that we must sue Jiang and use this opportunity to talk to the police about Dafa. Most of the officers were kind to the practitioners who filed complaints after they heard the facts.
According to the Minghui website's reports, some areas had similar interference after practitioners had filed criminal complaints against Jiang. Master taught us,
“As I've said, everything that happens today in the ordinary society is the result of Dafa disciples' thoughts. Even though the old forces do exist, if you don't have those thoughts they can't do anything. When your righteous thoughts are strong enough the old forces can't do a thing.” (“Teaching the Fa at the 2002 Fa Conference in Philadelphia, U.S.A.”, Teaching the Fa at the Conference II)
The practitioners in our area shared and looked inward. We improved together as a whole and dissolved the interference with righteous thoughts.
