The Power of One Body

A Falun Dafa practitioner from a city in Northeast China was illegally detained at a local detention center for possession of Falun Dafa truth-clarification material. The practitioner went on hunger strike to protest the persecution. Local practitioners sent righteous thoughts collectively in their homes, and also in close proximity to the detention center on two occasions. Another practitioner went to clarify the truth to the police of the detention center many times. One policeman got to know the truth of Falun Gong, and he took the initiative to provide information about the practitioner, and also bailed him out for medical treatment. After this practitioner was on a hunger strike for over 90 days, he was finally released. All the practitioners truly felt the power of being one body.

A Falun Dafa practitioner saved a little bit over 2000 Yuan [Chinese currency, the monthly salary for an average Chinese urban worker is about 500 Yuan], which was put together with other practitioners' money for the purpose of producing truth-clarification material. A few days later, he was kidnapped by police, and nobody knew the password for his bank account.

Producing truth-clarification material requires funds. One day, two Dafa practitioners took the checkbook with them to try to withdraw this money from his account. They understood that everything in this world is for the Fa, and that it was crucial to save living beings, so they must take the money out. After they got to the bank, without needing a password, they successfully withdrew the funds and were able to continue producing truth clarification materials.
