(Clearwisdom.net) Editors' Note: In both Western and Chinese culture, the principle of karmic retribution, that is, being held ultimately accountable for one's own actions, is widely accepted. The fundamental teaching of Falun Gong is the characteristic of the universe, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. The universe will reward actions that are in harmony with this principle, while actions such as beating, torturing and murdering people will incur karmic retribution. Stated another way, good deeds will be rewarded with good, while evildoings will meet due retribution. Articles such as this one are meant as a compassionate reminder of this principle to those who would commit wrongdoing. While many of those who persecute Falun Gong are merely "following orders," the universal law requires that they, too, be held responsible for their actions, and that only by reversing their course of wrongdoing may they escape retribution.

Kong Xiangquan, the deputy head of Fukang City Political and Justice Committee in Xinjiang Province is 52 years old. On the night of April 3, 2009, he suffered a sudden stroke and lost consciousness. The city hospital could not handle his case and transferred him to Xinjiang Medical School for emergency treatment. He was diagnosed as having suffered a stroke. His family was notified to prepare 300,000 yuan for his treatment.

Since Kong Xiangquan took the position of deputy head of the Political and Justice Committee, he has been actively executing the persecution policies against Falun Gong. In 2008, he secretly arrested elderly practitioner Ms. Huang Jinjun and sentenced her to four years in prison. For more than 6 months, the family members of Ms. Huang could not get any information about her whereabouts. Before the Beijing Olympics, Kong Xiangquan instigated work units and home associations to interfere in local practitioners' lives and limit practitioners' personal freedom. In February 2009, someone found a truth-clarifying CD at the residential building of the Food Bureau; he sent people over to search the whole building and asked the residents to turn in the CDs. His action irritated the residents.

Kong Xiangquan has been a teacher, the secretary of the Fukang City government, the head of a township, and Party secretary of the City Development Department. We hope those who are still persecuting Falun Gong practitioners will listen to the truth and stop the persecution to have a future for themselves and their relatives. They need to withdraw from the CCP and its affiliated organizations to save their lives and to avoid being sacrificed by the CCP.

A Cook from Yangjiang City, Guangdong Province Met with Karmic Retribution after Cursing the People Who Withdrew from the CCP

Du Muqiang is a cook working for a nightly open food stand in Yangjiang City of Guangdong Province. He not only did not want to withdraw from the CCP and its affiliated organizations, but he also cursed loudly, saying that whoever withdrew from the CCP would be hit by a car. Several days later, Du Muqiang met with karmic retribution. He suddenly felt his feet were weakening and his hands were very painful at work. He sat down and could not work. Someone told him to withdraw from the CCP and not to say those words that could lead to retribution. He shook his head and would not believe it; he kept on cursing. Ten days later, he was hit by a car. He was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment; the doctor suggested opening his skull to release the internal bleeding. Because his family is poor, he did not have enough money to go through with the surgery. During the time he was in the hospital, he still spent more than 10,000 yuan.
