Playing a Leading Role While Being Harassed in China

(Minghui.org) Eight people from the local community and police station came to my home around 10:30 a.m. in October 2021. I knew one of them from the local community, and three were in police uniform. I invited them in and prepared tea for them. I sat down and didn’t say anything for a few minutes, as I quietly sent forth righteous thoughts.

The person I knew, introduced one man in his 60s as an “expert” from the municipal government. The man tried to praise me first, “Big sister, I read something about you. You are very capable and your house is nice and tidy. Are you still practicing Falun Gong?”

I replied, “Falun Gong practitioners follow the principles Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. It’s the best. Since you’re the expert, I have a question about the Tiananmen Square self-immolation incident. Why were Wang Jindong’s clothes and pants badly burned, but the plastic Sprite bottle between his legs was still in good shape? Why was Liu Siying able to sing when her trachea had been cut open?”

He couldn’t answer and said that he’d have to watch the video footage carefully when he went home.

I followed up with another question about the head of the town’s armed forces and officer Zhang. I listed the crimes that the two had committed against Falun Gong practitioners during 1999 and 2000. The head of the town’s armed forces had beaten almost every practitioner in town. He and Zhang ransacked the practitioners’ homes, burned their Falun Gong books, and extorted tens of thousands of yuan from them.

They confiscated practitioners’ livestock and personal belongings. I questioned the “expert,” “You’re an expert and know the law. Have these two violated the law? Shouldn’t they be imprisoned?” He didn’t say anything.

I told him that Zhang had suffered retribution for his actions and was now deceased. I then mentioned two more cases of retribution. Luo Jing, an anchor at CCTV, who had broadcasted news slandering Falun Gong for a long time, died of cancer long ago. Ren Changxia, head of the Dengfeng City Police Department, was very active in the persecution of Falun Gong. She died in a car accident. Her husband died of cancer a few years later. Their teenage child was orphaned.

The “expert” said to me, “Since you think Falun Gong is good, you can practice at home. Don’t go outside and say things like ‘Heaven will eliminate the CCP…”

I interrupted him and told him that the source of the words was indeed from Heaven, and went on to talk about the “hidden character stone” in Guizhou Province with six Chinese characters on the stone - “The Chinese Communist Party Will Perish.” Isn’t it that Heaven is warning us via the stone?

“It’s just a stone,” the “expert” replied, “The Communist Party has been doing a good job in society.”

I quickly took over, “Is that true? During the Great Famine of 1959, my family starved to death, except I remained alive. How many people died of starvation just in one place! I came here and got married. I worked hard and still struggled to fill my stomach. What’s good under the CCP’s rule?”

He changed the topic and asked about my 12-year-old grandson. After he learned that I taught my grandson to remember that “Falun Dafa is good,” he asked whether I was afraid of affecting his future, such as going to a university or finding a job because of my practicing Falun Dafa.

I told him that I wasn’t, as his fate is determined by heaven. “He will have what he deserves and no one can take that away from him. Moreover, our ancestors have done good deeds for generations and accumulated a lot of blessings. I’m not worried about him.”

A woman among them asked, “You said that Falun Dafa is good. How good is it?”

I asked whether they agreed with the phrase “don’t fight back when one is beaten or scolded.” When they said they did, I asked if they could follow it. No one answered.

I told them that I could and anyone who practices Falun Dafa could, because our Master requires us to do so.

I went on, “What I am telling you is the truth. You all work for the government. Don’t do anything against your conscience. Do good and accumulate virtue, which will bring you and your family blessings. Don’t persecute Falun Dafa. It will bring misfortune to you and your family. Remember this!”

Two police officers stood up and told the “expert” that they had other things to do. I saw them to the door and said, “Please remember, do not persecute Falun Dafa practitioners! It will bring terrible consequences!” They said that they understood.

The “expert” complained that I kept interrupting him. I told him that I was preventing him from committing crimes against Dafa, which would bring harm to him and his family. He said that what I said was high-sounding, but was difficult to understand. I added, “You don’t understand but your soul understands!” He was shocked and didn’t say another word.

When I asked them to stay for lunch, they all stood up and said they would leave. I saw them to the door and told them to remember “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” Some of them said that they would.
