(Minghui.org) As the persecution of Falun Dafa remains unabated after 24 years, the practitioners who remain firm in their faith are still subjected to arrests, detention and torture. Yet for these brave souls who stand up for truth and faith, high walls and torture couldn’t bend their will, but will only make them stronger and more firm.

As the 2024 New Year rings in, Falun Dafa practitioners who are incarcerated for their faith also managed to send their heartfelt greetings to Master Li Hongzhi, the founder of the practice, and wish him a Happy New Year. Some practitioners said that although they are detained in isolation, they could feel Master is with them all the time. They understood that hardship can temper their will and help them let go of worldly attachments. It’s like the plum flowers, the colder the winter, the more beautiful the flowers blossom.
