(Clearwisdom.net) The Fa rectification has lasted five years, and like other Dafa practitioners, I have experienced repeated difficulties. It is due to Master's boundless grace, great mercy, concern, and protection that I have made it this far. I sincerely feel grateful for Master's benevolent salvation. Only when I keep up with the progress of the Fa-rectification, do well the three things that Dafa practitioners should do, (1) let go of human attachments, and be more diligent in the last stage of Fa-rectification, can I live up to Master's benevolent salvation.
I remember a fellow practitioner who expressed his understanding about collecting articles like this: "Reflecting the Fa-rectification course in the past more than 5 years, we should write down our experiences validating the Fa in this period no matter how much Fa-rectification work we have done and no matter how much persecution we have suffered, since this historical period is the critical period in Master's rectifying the universe. It is also a great period in which Dafa disciples step out of humanness to assist Master in Fa-rectification." So I decided to write about some small incidents I have experienced.
1. Not Cooperating with the Requirements, Orders, and Directions of the Evil
In April 2000, I was abducted and taken to Qingling Hongxia brainwashing center in Wuchang district. In the beginning, we were forced to do drills every morning. Dafa practitioners were open and upright cultivators. How could we listen to their illegal orders? When they gave directions, we did the Falun Dafa exercises. Then they forced us to stand in the sun. Later they used more brutal torture methods, such as handcuffing our hands, handcuffing the hands behind the back, depriving us of food, and locking up the door like a prison. The personnel in the brainwashing center often brought in some politicians to attack Dafa. We refused to listen and resisted by reciting "Lunyu" loudly.
Another time was in October 2000 when persecution was the cruelest. The unlawful personnel from the government abducted Dafa practitioners and detained them in a room all day long, depriving them of food. Dafa practitioners shouted out, "Falun Dafa is good!" and "Falun Dafa is the righteous Fa." Their voices were loud and clear, shaking the evil. Even the pedestrians in the streets could hear them. An official in the judiciary said, "As soon as I got out of the car, I heard your shouting." People in the streets said that there were a lot of Falun Gong practitioners detained there and they did not know what crimes Falun Gong practitioners had committed. The personnel of the brainwashing center felt passive and afraid at the same time
Therefore, they came to talk to us. I was very calm at that time and said to them, "We Falun Dafa practitioners are all good people. Our Teacher teaches us to be better people and to have a high moral standard. It is not a crime to be good, but it is violating the constitution when Jiang Zemin suppresses good people." I pointed to myself and asked them, "Can you say that I am a bad person?" They became silent. Later the chief of the bureau came to talk with me. She said that she was moved after seeing our actions. She said, "We cannot understand your loyalty to your Master and your attachment to Falun Gong." In the end, she said, "You are risking your lives and being beaten for going to Beijing. You are detained in prison. What for? But you have no complaint or regret. Your spirit is very touching." When she was about to leave, she came to the door of my room and told me that she would go back to her work unit for good. Meanwhile her hands were held together in a fist, a sign to show me respect. I was also happy about her awakening.
2. Clarifying the Truth Lets Predestined People Obtain the Fa
A prisoner from Hunan Province was detained for over a year in the detention center without being sentenced. Later she was transferred to the room where I stayed. She had had some contact with Falun Gong practitioners. She said that Falun Gong practitioners were different from other people and had a kind spirit. Using this opportunity, I talked further to her about our being persecuted and clarified the truth to her at the same time. She was very moved and said that she wanted to learn Falun Gong. I first taught her to recite Master's shorter articles and Hongyin. She could recite many. Previously, she could easily fight with others over trivial things and cursed others. Later, she knew the results of beating and cursing others. Falun Dafa changed her.
There was a department director from a provincial administration who was detained for almost a year without being sentenced because of alleged involvement in corruption. She saw how different I was when I was with them. I did not fight for anything, I did the work that others did not want to do, and I slept in a place that others refused. When I received clothes from my family members, the prisoners wanted to take the good ones. I let them take them. She said that I was kind and therefore liked to talk with me. I used the opportunity to tell her about all the changes I experienced after practicing Falun Gong. She said that Falun Gong practitioners were all good people. I told her that our Master required each of us to be a good person and to consider others first. If one took advantage of other people, he would lose Virtue. After hearing this, she realized that she had violated the law. She decided to be a good person again and said that she would learn Falun Gong when she was released.
Even the prison guards admitted that the prisoners fought less after Falun Gong practitioners came. It was the result of Dafa disciples' benevolent energy field and their clarifying the truth to the inmates.
(1) Study the Fa (Law and principles), send forth righteous thoughts, and clarify the truth to the world's people.
