I have been practicing Dafa since 1996. It's been 7 years. During the past four years since July 20, 1999, just as all other Dafa practitioners in China, I have suffered from violent persecution. At the same time, I cultivate myself according to "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance," improve myself to be a better and better person, and clarify the facts of Dafa to people who have been cheated by the hideous lies. No matter what has happened, I hold on to my belief in "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance."
As a Dafa practitioner, the four years of persecution has made me more clear minded in telling the difference between right and wrong, good and evil.
1999 was an unusual year. From April 25 to July 20, a big conspiracy aimed at persecuting Dafa was plotted. Kind people believed Jiang Zemin's regime's lies. On July 22, the evil Jiang Zemin revealed its ferocious feathers. Since then, many Dafa practitioners have been illegally detained. Peaceful appealers were beaten up by wicked police officers. Falun Dafa was slandered and defamed. Many people in China and around the world have been deceived by Jiang Zemin's lying media.
In 2000 and 2001, the rampant persecution of Falun Gong practitioners peaked. Thousands of Dafa practitioners were illegally detained, sent to forced labor camps, sentenced to jails. Dafa practitioners around me and I were not spared. In facing calamities, we made mistakes, but nothing could shake up our belief in "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance." Though the evil could be reckless for a period of time, but they are doomed in the end.
Now, in 2003, we practitioners are more reasonable and rational. Non-practitioners are more clear-headed. During the past four years, Dafa practitioners have exposed the vicious persecution with their great kindness and compassion. More and more people have come to recognize the truth. Lies are lies. The brilliant rays of Falun Dafa have covered the whole earth. Once again the rule of "evil will never defeat righteousness" has been proven.
It's been four years. The evils, which have been exposed in the light of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance," have no ability to be that rampant anymore. In facing calamities, kind Falun Gong practitioners proved that "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance" is correct. It will never be wrong to believe in "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance"!
