Write Down Our Personal Experiences and Thoroughly Expose the Evil

(Clearwisdom.net) Ever since the evil forces first started to persecute Dafa, have the Dafa practitioners living outside of China been persecuted as well? The answer is a resounding "Yes."

Some practitioners were beaten by thugs hired by the Chinese embassies and consulates, while others had their car windows smashed into pieces and telephones placed under surveillance. Because we practice Falun Gong, some of our relatives who live in Mainland China have been threatened and live in constant fear for their lives. Because we practice Falun Gong, we have been groundlessly denied permission to visit Hong Kong and Mainland China. All of these things are forms of persecution.

After being deceived by the evil propaganda from China, some Chinese coworkers of ours look at us strangely. For those of us who run our own businesses, some of our clients left us after believing in the propaganda of the evil forces or out of fear. It is not that our coworkers and clients are persecuting us, but what they are doing is a direct result of this evil persecution. After being slandered by the onslaught of evil propaganda, some practitioners receive no support from their family members in China for practicing Falun Gong. They even say that we are anti-China, and they are afraid that we are going to commit suicide. Once again, this is the result of slanderous, evil propaganda from the media.

The Chinese embassies and consulates in various countries have applied pressure to the Chinese media outlets outside of China. As a result, many Chinese media outlets do not dare to publish truth-clarifying articles provided by Dafa practitioners. The Chinese embassies and consulates directly participate in the persecution. The Chinese media outside of China has been threatened, bribed and forced to comply. As a result, we have been subject to personal attacks, and our good names have been sullied.

Because we practice Falun Gong, we cannot go back to Mainland China to visit our relatives, and we cannot attend some of the activities organized by the local Chinese communities. Our requests to extend our passports or visa applications are rejected. Because we practice Falun Gong, some of us have been followed by spies and had personal conversations secretly recorded. Because we take part in truth clarifying parades, we are photographed by embassy officials and verbally attacked. Because we practice our exercises in front of the Chinese embassies or consulates, our names are recorded, and we are surrounded and verbally attacked by groups of people who directly or indirectly work for the Chinese government. When we hold our Fa conferences, the hotels that rent us the conference rooms are subject to threats. As a result, the locations of many Fa conferences cannot be announced ahead of the time in order to minimize interference.

Hasn't every one of us Dafa practitioners outside of China experienced one or more of these things? The persecution that we have experienced is also a part of the overall persecution against Falun Gong.

Meekly accepting any kind of persecution is allowing the evil to exist or even inadvertently aiding it. This kind of persecution has been happening daily since the persecution against Falun Gong first started. But sometimes we sit idly by and cannot handle them with righteous thoughts on the basis with Fa. Of course, we need to eliminate the attachment of fear. We cultivators must search inward no matter what we encounter and care nothing about the unfair treatments that we have received as individuals. But at the same time, we must clearly differentiate personal cultivation from Fa-rectification cultivation. Any persecution against a Dafa particle is in reality persecution against Dafa. Regardless of whether it is big or small, and regardless of what the excuse is, any persecution against Dafa is not supposed to exist. Even more importantly, Dafa practitioners should not silently accept them or even nourish them.

Teacher Li said, "Of course, I reject all of the arrangements they've made, I don't recognize them." ("Fa-Lecture at the Conference in Florida, U.S.A.") "Did you know? I completely do not acknowledge this evil test arranged by the old forces." ("Suggestion")

Dafa practitioners have not done nearly enough to expose the evil persecution outside of China. Teacher Li said, "Those who are afraid of letting people know the truth are evil and not Dafa disciples." ("Suggestion")

Therefore we are asking all the Dafa practitioners outside of China to write down the persecution that they as well as their family members and friends have endured. Such accounts will help people recognize how evil this persecution truly is, and how it has effected hundreds of millions of practitioners and their families. Every single Dafa practitioner should recognize the importance of clarifying the truth in this regard. Perhaps you think that your own experience is rather insignificant. But if the experiences of all the practitioners are combined together, it will make people of the world clearly see through this evil persecution and thereby completely exposing the evil. Let the evil get completely exposed under the sunlight, and let it have no place to hide. "When you have all the people of the world, and all the people of China, see this evil drama for what it is, could the evil still have any effect? It will collapse." ("Fa-Lecture at the Conference in Florida, U.S.A.")

Dafa practitioners outside of China can compile all the relevant material together in the form of a report and submit it to the relevant agencies in the countries that they live in as reference material and starting points of investigations. It can also serve as early preparation work for activities that will take place in not-so-distant future, where practitioners will use legal means to punish the evil and demand compensation. The suffering that the evil faces will be much more than what it has forcefully given to Dafa and Dafa practitioners.
