A Most Precious Banner (Photo)

September 20, 2010 |   By a practitioner from Wuhan, Hubei Province

(Clearwisdom.net) We bought this banner on November 16, 1995, when our exercise site was set up, to spread Dafa. It was 335 centimeters in length and 140 centimeters in width. The exercise site was located in a little garden near my home. At about 4:00 in the morning, we came to the exercise site and hung the banner from the trees. We arranged for a practitioner to teach people how to do the exercises. Initially, there were a total of seven to eight practitioners. Later on, in 1999, the number of practitioners increased to 40.

'九九年以前我们炼功点洪法的横幅'

The banner we used at our practice site before 1999

Before July 20, 1999, this banner was the most popular one at every exercise site in Mainland China. On the morning of July 21, 1999, the banner hung from the trees at our exercise site for the last time. After the persecution of Falun Gong began, a fellow practitioner asked me what to do with it. I said that I would take care of it. I believed that the persecution would not last long and we could hang the banner up again quite soon. Eleven years have elapsed in a flash, and the banner became very precious.

At the end of 2000, I went to Beijing to validate the Fa. The evil beings took advantage of my loophole that I was attached to going to the brainwashing center to clarify the facts, and I was illegally detained in the brainwashing center for four and a half months. At the end of 2002, the evil found my loophole of being attached to sentimentality, and I was held in custody for one month and my home was ransacked as well. However, under Master's protection, they did not take the banner away. I have treated it as a precious historic cultural relic.

Although, I still have many attachments that worry Master, I continue to do the three things. With Master's protection and the help of fellow practitioners, I became better and better at telling people the facts about Dafa and offering sentient beings salvation. I will try my best to save sentient beings and live up to Master's expectations.
