The persecution of a Falun Dafa practitioner: Because I practice Falun Dafa, I was arrested, detained, tortured and extorted. Policeman Li We used a 1.5 meter long, 2/3 decimeter wide, 1/3 decimeter thick bamboo strip to beat me. My whole body was covered with wounds, and my leg was injured from the beating.

The experience of a 32-year-old female Dafa practitioner being arrested, extorted large amounts of money and tortured. Before cultivation, she was very ill and had a bad relationship with her husband. After obtaining Dafa her family became harmonious, and she became healthy.

Once when she was illegally arrested, the vicious police beat and kicked her, slapped her face, yanked her hair, pinched her with pliers, hit her with bamboo planks, handcuffed her to a car's exhaust pipe when the motor was running and forced her to stand under the sun for long periods of time.
Compassionate Advice
A message to my own people: being a human being requires conscience. Falun Gong teaches people to cultivate their hearts and become good. Through cultivation, we can get rid of chronic diseases. In order to tell you this truth, countless people haven been arrested, beaten and tortured. Please don't treat Falun Gong with enmity and don't let your mind be poisoned by fabrications. Learn about Falun Gong with an open mind.
A letter advising goodness for Siping Forced Labor Camp guards: please don't sell your conscience in exchange for personal gain. Don't use base means such as beating and forced standing to force Dafa practitioners to give up their faith in "Truth, Compassion, Forbearance." Ever since ancient times, evil can never win over righteousness. Evil deeds will be punished for sure.
Several practitioners were tortured to death in Fujian Province, and their fellow practitioners wrote the following letter to the Provincial Ministry. The political campaigns over the years have tested the conscience and sense of justice of ordinary people. During the process, many have been used as scapegoats. One has to be responsible for what one does, and it does not matter who you are. As long as you understand that Falun Gong is being persecuted and can tell right from the wrong, there will be hope for you.
Practitioners also wrote a letter to the ministry officials' relatives. Please awaken to the truth and stand up for it. For the sake of yourself and your family, do not be frightened by and succumb to the evil. You have to understand that practitioners have committed no wrong in telling the truth. You have to remember that justice will prevail in the end.

Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Acts
I obtained Fa relatively late. I went to Tiananmen Square on December 29, 2001. Without looking around to see if there were policemen or not, I unfurled the banner and shouted out, "Falun Dafa is Good! Return Innocence to My Master!" While being detained in the Banbiqiang Police Station of the Daxing Public Security Bureau, I did not cooperate with the vicious force. I spread Fa and clarified the truth about Falun Gong at each opportunity. On December 31, I escaped and rejoined the current of Fa-rectification.
Using righteous thoughts, I hung up banners three times while the policemen were patrolling. Each time I sent out the purest, strongest righteous thoughts and controlled everything around me. I accomplished my goal and went home safely, effectively suffocating the evil.
