A Righteous Voice
A non-practitioner in China spoke on behalf of Falun Gong: Last year's Tiananmen Square Self-Immolation incident and this year's incident of the mad man killing his family made me curious as to why tens of millions of people were practicing Falun Gong, including many highly educated intellectuals and professionals. I thought the answer must be in the book Zhuan Falun, but because most of the books have been burned it was difficult to find. By chance I found one copy at a private book-seller and bought it at a high price. I read it twice and to my surprise found out that the entire emphasis of the book is on how to be a good person.

A 10-year old Dafa Practitioner's Fa Rectification Deeds in Other Dimensions: I ejected a very big golden Falun. It swirled slowly from one side of the Tiananmen rostrum to the other side and the rostrum looked as if it has been washed. Those demons were so weak that they could not withstand a single blow. Some demons were very cunning. They hid themselves by turning into tables, chairs, and some other stuff. After I destroyed all of them, I melted the house with my gong.

Stop distributing materials that tell lies.
