(Clearwisdom.net) This June, a friend of mine (a medical doctor who sympathizes with Falun Gong) told me the following story.
Two years ago one of his patients, who was in charge of a public security "610 Office," had come to see him to treat a physical illness. His illness had something to do with an abnormal digestive system that caused him frequent diarrhea. He told my friend that his job was so busy that he had to keep his cell phone on 24 hours a day, and the tremendous mental pressure weakened his physical strength.
More recently, he showed up to see my friend. My friend was stunned that in the two short years that had passed, the patient had become a completely different person: he looked more like a skeleton than a man, and his arm was as thin as a piece of dry wood.
He said that over the past two years his symptoms kept changing, from diarrhea to losing strength in both legs, and gradually his body became weak, and over time he lost weight. He had visited all the major medical hospitals around Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Medical experts had prescribed all kinds of tests, checked his body systems and still could not find the cause of his illness. In other words, he has contracted a baffling, unknown disease. In the few short minutes while he described the situation, he had to constantly open his mouth wide in order to draw air in and appeared to be short of breath.
My friend said: "This head of the '610 Office' is only in his forties, but as he has such a serious illness, it is probably the result of what people call retribution!"
I felt heavy-hearted after listening to the story. It is true that if it wasn't for Jiang Zemin stubbornly starting the movement to suppress Falun Gong, there would not be the existence of the "610 Office" in charge of the suppression of Falun Gong; this man would not have been put in charge of the "610 Office," and therefore he would not have committed such a sin against Falun Dafa practitioners, and he would not have received bad returns like this.
Even so, if he could choose the right path after having gone the wrong way, show sincere repentance for the past, and keep a benevolent heart and treat Falun Dafa practitioners with kindness, then I think that as long as there is one breath left in him, he could feel compassionate Buddha's infinite grace.
I sincerely hope that all the people who participated in the persecution will recognize Jiang's destructive nature and take hold of their own futures.
