(Minghui.org) The Chinese communist regime has been persecuting Falun Dafa for the past 23 years. But no matter how terrible the persecution is, nothing can change practitioners’ will to uphold their faith.

To mark the beginning of 2023, Falun Dafa practitioners incarcerated in prisons and detention centers managed to send their greetings to Minghui.org to express their gratitude to Master Li, the founder of Falun Dafa.

One practitioner in Yongning County, Yinchuan City, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, wrote, “Disciples miss Master and thank Master for his compassionate salvation! We will be diligent in cultivation, studying the Fa well, sending righteous thoughts, saving sentient beings, and doing the three things well. We have faith in Master and the Fa and will follow the Master to return to our heavenly home. ”

A practitioner incarcerated in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region wrote a poem:

“Thank you, Master, for teaching me to cultivate my heart to be kindThanks to Dafa for creating my Vajra bodyThanks to Dafa for allowing me to save more sentient beingsAll sentient beings being saved are in the new Universe and celebrate their new lives.

“Thank you, Master, for your blessings to strengthen me to overcome difficulties,Putting down attachments to life and death your disciple’s will is strongerDuring the brutal persecution I recited Zhuan FalunBelieving in Master and the Fa, I am cultivating diligently toward consummation.”
