Facts of the Persecution

Falun Dafa practitioners in China filed a lawsuit with the International Court against the dictator Jiang for his crimes in persecuting Falun Gong practitioners during the past few years. According to an internal news source from the Chinese government, more than 1,600 Falun Gong practitioners were tortured to death in China by Jiang's group, hundreds of thousands of practitioners were beaten, detained, and sent to labor camps and jails. The dictator of China viciously persecutes kind people out of self-interest, going against the laws of Heaven and man. We call on the International Court to put Jiang on trial for his crimes in brutalizing innocent people.

The Truth and People's Hearts

A practitioner from Singapore: A middle-aged man was waiting for someone. I walked up to him and gave him Dafa materials, and he agreed to let me distribute flyers at a construction site where he worked. There were more than 200 people at the construction site and most of them were willing to accept my flyer. Some were stubborn at first but they happily accepted after we patiently clarified the truth. Some told us that there are lots of Chinese people in church, so we went there and indeed saw three or four cars full of Chinese people. We gave them quite a few of the flyers we had.

Previously, my husband didn't want me to go out to clarify the truth to people, but he changed greatly after reading Zhuan Falun. Before dawn on the first day of the Chinese New Year, my husband and I drove to a city where a state university was located. Most of the Chinese students studying here lived in the dorm, and we put truth clarification VCD's on windshields of cars with a Chinese decoration on them. We also posted Chinese and English flyers on the bulletin board in the laundry room and student activity center.

News From China

Letters and packages in China go through a central-control system, from which they are sent to several mail inspection centers in every province. The letters and packages are inspected and sorted according to its destination on a residential area, county, and city level. There is also an agency consisting of police officers, inspectors and National Security Bureau officials, who check the mail of people who are under surveillance. In addition, they examine mail addressed to "sensitive" government agencies, national leaders, as well as mail sent by foreign agencies and mail that fit certain other criteria.

News From Abroad

I am a young teacher. After beginning cultivation, I felt that I should bring the righteous thoughts and knowledge to my students, which is their guarantee for a bright future. For older students I chose related materials from Zhengjian Net and Xinsheng Net [two other Dafa websites in Chinese] as supplementary teaching material. During the end-of-class summary, I always told the students to keep an open mind and don't think that things in the past are inferior to things of today, and that things we cannot see are not necessarily impossible or non-existent. Through several years of practice, I learned from my successes and failures. I treated students according to their different characteristics in hopes of planting seeds of righteous insights in their hearts and bringing them a bright future.
