My name is Liang Ye-ning, female. I am 30 years old. I am a Falun Dafa practitioner from Shi-jia-zhuang City, Hebei province. I was a former employee in the finance section of a company. I started to practice Falun Dafa since June 1994. Up to now, I have practiced cultivation for about 5 years. Seven of my family members are practicing Falun Dafa. I have a 2-year-old son. I have been a contact person of Falun Dafa since I started to practice Falun Dafa. On April 25th of 1999 I went to Beijing to appeal. I went to Beijing to appeal again after many contact people of Falun Dafa were arrested on July 20th of 1999. Since then, I have not gone home yet.
I learn that almost all the Falun Dafa practitioners are being forced by the local public security departments or their working places to write a statement of repentance or a pledge to give up Falun Dafa. They are also forced to hand over the books of Falun Dafa. I always believe that Falun Dafa is a good cultivation way that teaches people to be good. It is absolutely not an "illegal organization" or "evil religion". Thus I will never go home to write the so-called statement of repentance. It is not wrong to practice Falun Dafa, nor do I have any repentance. Why should I? I also know that "Zhuan Falun" (the main text of Falun Dafa) is a precious book, more than ten thousands of times precious than my own life. How can I hand it over? Therefore, I will not go home. Because I have never gone home, and also because I was a contact person of Falun Dafa, I am wanted by the Hebei public security department. They have sent out policemen with monitors many times to Beijing in order to arrest me and another contact person of Falun Dafa. They have also put my family under surveillance and have gone to all my relatives' homes to search for my whereabouts. The phone in my home is being monitored. My sister is also being monitored by her workplace and she has to report to the security section of her workplace whenever she goes out. Since I have not gone home for two months, the preceding information was given to me by my sister when she got a chance to sneak away to meet me.
Because I do not have an identification card, I cannot stay at hotel and I have to sleep outdoors. I once stayed on a mountain. When it was raining, I stayed under the tree. I also stayed at a park once. One day at a park I was robbed by a bad person and forced to sit at a place close to water for a night. Although I know that my 2-year-old son needs his mother's love and care, my aged parents are missing their own daughter, my husband is longing for his beloved wife, and I myself is suffering both physically and mentally, I cannot go home. The Chinese communist regime cannot tolerate the existence of Falun Dafa. But without it, how can I have a healthy body and mind? Falun Dafa has given me so much. How can I remain indifferent when it is being defamed and wronged? In order to let more people know that Falun Dafa is the genuine truth, and in order to let more practitioners become determined about Falun Dafa, I have been promoting Falun Dafa in places around the country and communicating with other Falun Dafa practitioners, hoping that more people will become determined about Falun Dafa. I went back to my hometown twice and exchanged encouragements with each other. Although my home is so close, I did not step in. Without Falun Dafa, everything of mine will not exist. I will never go home before the problem is solved.
In the beginning, I had had hatred towards those who slandered at my teacher, Mr. Li Hongzhi, those who persecuted our fellow practitioners, and those policemen who tried all means to catch us. After two month of constantly studying Falun Dafa, I gradually eliminate my hatred. Instead, I began to develop compassion for them. These pitiful people cannot see the light of truth, nor do they know what they are doing. If I ever have a chance to meet them, I will kindly and seriously persuade them to stop doing evil, and ask them to read "Zhuan Falun", and suggest them to open their eyes to take a look at the magnificent Buddha law!
Falun Dafa to me is like water to fish. How can fish live without water? I believe that the dark
clouds will not shade the sun forever. The gold will always shine. Someday all shameful stuff will
become exposed to the light. I believe the light of Falun Dafa will cleanse all the evil and illuminate
the whole universe.
