(Clearwisdom.net) One day, two practitioners from another region came to visit me without any notification. They shared their experiences of validating Falun Dafa in Beijing and in prison. Suddenly, I awakened. I realized I should have gone to Beijing to safeguard the Fa long ago.
Realizing that I should step forward changed my notions. When I read the article "Fa-Rectification Period Dafa Disciples" again, I felt differently. "Disciples, be diligent! Everything that's the most magnificent and the most wonderful is developed in the process of your validating Dafa. Your vows will become testaments of your future." I asked a few practitioners to come over to study the Fa and share their thoughts on this matter. Everyone agreed, and we decided to go immediately.
Suddenly, worries and concerns came one after another. Then I read a Clearwisdom Net article given to me by a practitioner the previous day. It was about an understanding of Master's words: "If you are not afraid, the factor that would make you afraid will become non-existent." These words of Master's had been directing and encouraging me to pass tests one after another ever since I read them. I knew the moment of letting go of life and death would soon be upon me. I put on a nice, dressy skirt, my jewelry, which I had not used for a long time, and a little bit of makeup. Then with a calm mind I went to the train station to buy three tickets.
The previous morning before I left for Beijing, I stood in front of Master's picture and sent forth strong righteous thoughts: Master please sustain my righteous thoughts. I must go to Beijing and must come back safe and sound and make this journey a boost to the Fa-rectification activities in this region. I must come back in two days.
On Sept. 8th three of us [women] boarded a train for Beijing. We kept sending forth righteous thoughts the entire journey. The next day we got off the train and took a taxi directly to Tiananmen Square. We had only one thought in our mind: find a place close to Tiananmen where there were lots of people and shout with our heartfelt voices. I truly experienced the feeling of having no trace of fear or any other impure thoughts in my mind.
We uprightly walked three rounds in front of Tiananmen. One of the other practitioners started shouting, so I immediately shouted: "Falun Dafa is good," "Falun Dafa is a righteous Fa!" At this moment I saw a person dashing in front of me quickly. I immediately realized he was chasing another practitioner. I shouted right away: "Freeze!" He swung a little bit but continued chasing the practitioner and eventually captured her. I kept on sending forth righteous thoughts and followed them to an underpass. Another auntie hadn't shouted yet. Seeing one of us was captured, she sent forth righteous thoughts right away to save the practitioner and followed them to the underpass, too. We went above ground. Suddenly the aunt realized the reason we had gone there. She said to me, "Wait for me here." Then she left. Before long she came back with steadfast steps and a solemn expression on her face. She had shouted, "Falun Dafa is good" from her heart. We had let people hear our heartfelt voices on Tiananmen Square and came back home in two days.
Now here is what happened to that practitioner that was captured by police. The police took her to the police station, used an electric baton to shock her, grabbed her by the hair, hit her head against the wall, and pressed her down to squat and remain at a level lower than them. She refused to squat. One of the policemen acted like a hoodlum. She warned him sternly and justly not to do that. Another policeman said to her: "You don't tell us your name. Nobody knows you're here. Nobody will even know if we beat you to death." Then he said he would polish her shoes for her. They picked up a Falun Dafa banner and tried to polish her shoes. She resisted with all her strength. The police put the banner on the ground and tried to carry her feet to stamp on it, but she would rather die than cooperate with them.
Then a policeman used an electric baton to shock her chest. She sent a thought to let him have a stomachache. That man really left in pain. A few other policemen searched her bag in turn. She sent thoughts to allow them to find nothing. The cops just didn't search a small inner pocket. They searched her shoes and socks and even the hems of her clothes, but they found only five dimes. The practitioner told them not to take her money, so they got nothing.
She had not a single trace of fear and made up her mind that by no means would she cooperate with the evil. She faced the police with dignity and a smile. The man who interrogated her felt unease in his heart and said to his supervisor that she was always smiling to him. Three hours later, that supervisor had a discussion with her: "You don't tell us anything. We're going to let you go." Hearing this, she picked up her bag and walked straight out of the gate of police station openly and uprightly. On the trip back home, she introduced the Fa and clarified the truth to the people around her and told the experiences of her safeguarding the Fa. Many people showed their understanding and sympathy towards her.
I deeply experienced the compassion of Master and the dignity of Dafa. Master said: "If a cultivator can let go of the thought of life and death under any circumstances, evil is bound to be afraid of him. If every practitioner is able to do this, evil will of itself no longer exist ['Eliminate Your Last Attachment(s)']." Master also said: "When Dafa has consummated everything amidst the tribulation, all of the evil that persecutes Dafa will be finished 'What are Supernormal Abilities.'"
My fellow practitioners, step forward and cultivate diligently! The greatest and most compassionate Master is waiting for us, and the practitioners in prisons are waiting for us as they suffer. They are waiting for us to take the step where life and death are no longer an issue and to greet the early arrival of the time when the Fa rectifies the human world.
