On the Third Anniversary of "July 20"
In a few words: Why do Chinese Falun Gong practitioners in China and abroad call Jiang "the evil?" For more than three years, Jiang has regarded the persecution of Falun Gong as the top priority in national affairs. He sent a series of evil orders to all levels of government through the terrorist "610 Office," which shows the true nature of its so-called policy: "ruin their reputation; deprive them financially and destroy them physically." These policies represent the true nature of Jiang's "advanced culture and advanced productivity that are related to the Chinese people's interest." The edicts that "police officers who beat Falun Gong practitioners to death shall not be held responsible in any way and the death should be counted as suicide," and "no need to check the identification of the dead Dafa practitioner and the body should be directly cremated," are examples of Jiang's "ruling with virtue and law." The evil of Jiang Zemin can be seen here. [Note: The "610 Office" is an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute powers over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems]
Practitioners Exchange Insights
Here I want to talk about righteous thoughts during truth-clarification work. Once, the evil took advantage of my nonchalance, and the machine I used to make truth- clarification discs continued to have problems. I looked inside myself and sent the purest and firmest righteous thoughts toward the machine. After I finished sending righteous thoughts and turned on the machine again, a miracle took place - the machine returned to normal. This incident enabled me to realize that we have to keep strong righteous thoughts at all times and our mind cannot deviate from the Fa for even one second; otherwise the evil will take advantage of us.
Help ordinary people break the obstacles in their hearts that prevent them from learning the truth. There are different stages in the process of Fa-rectification, and the force of Fa-rectification waits for no one. We need to do different things at different stages so as to keep up with the stages of Fa-rectification. None of the things occurring in human society, especially in China are accidental. Therefore, we should really catch hold of each opportunity as it happens, especially those major incidents, and fully utilize them to clarify the truth and thereby offer salvation to sentient beings. The loss will be great if we miss the chance.
Teacher is looking after every disciple at each moment. On June 6, policemen took us to the police station and later sent us to a detention center. I went on a hunger strike, but I was violently beaten up. They tortured me in different ways including, force-feeding, tightly tying me to a "Tiger Bench" (a small iron bench that is approximately 6 inches high. Usually some hard objects are inserted underneath the practitioner's lower legs or ankles to make it harder for them to tolerate this abuse), and tightly tying me to the "Dead Person's Bed" (The four limbs of the practitioner are stretched out and tied to the four corners of an icy-cold metal bed. The practitioner cannot move at all. Neither is he allowed to get up to eat, drink, or go to the bathroom. This treatment can last from several hours to two weeks. This type of cruel torture causes severe damage to the practitioner both mentally and physically.) In the detention center, I continuously sent forth righteous thoughts, practiced the Falun Gong exercises, recited the Fa, and clarified the truth. On June 27, the police sent me to a forced labor re-education camp. After physical examination, the labor camp said that I was too sick to stay there, so the police had no choice but to send me home.
Resisting the Persecution Imposed on Me from My work unit with Righteous Thoughts: Due to my persistent belief in Falun Dafa, my work unit punished me by expelling me from the Party and removing my name from the factory employment list, only allowing me to stay in the factory for two-year's observation. Besides, my work unit also persecuted me financially. I told them openly, I would never accept the wrong decision. I would rather give up my job than give up my belief. In the end, they dropped the disciplinary action against me and I resumed my public employment after examination and approval by all the higher levels of leadership. During the period while I was being persecuted, my husband was fearless in the face of the power. He often went to the related departments to talk to the heads and never used Dafa as something that could be bargained away. He told relevant people that it is very good for me to study Dafa and they should not use Falun Gong as an issue to put pressure on me. His support helped me a lot.
