I'm Qiao Hu, twelve years old, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Nanchang city, Jiangxi province. My dad used to suffer from leukemia, and it was Falun Dafa that saved him, enabling him to survive. Now, I am a student at No. 14 Middle School. When I was in primary school, my grade was nearly zero in some subjects. Even worse off, my conduct was very poor, so bad that I had once set fire to someone else's door. Now, I am in middle school. After I have been studying Falun Dafa, my English ranks second in the entire enrollment of mine, Chinese is above average, and even Mathematics, which was zero before, has been boosted up to 70 out of 100. Isn't this a great progress?
On July 21, 1999, the Public Security Bureau charged my dad with racketeering for Falun Gong books. Actually he did not do anything wrong besides lending money to others. Still, they detained him and later, he was released. It happened again on April 21, 2000. My dad was taken away by the Public Security for the second time. This time, the cause was an article entitled "Truth" composed by my dad that was posted on the Internet.
My mom and I went to Beijing on April 28 to make appeals. Since then, I have given up many attachments: school, grandma, and frolicking. I did not know what to say when I first got to Beijing, even though I was clear with my intention. Some fellow practitioners helped me and taught me how to say it: "What you have done to Falun Gong is all wrong; Falun Gong is a virtuous teaching; you can not slander our Teacher; you will regret for what you have done now in the future."
In the article "Distinction" of the book "Hong Yin", Teacher said, "Buddha came to the human world, but the ordinary people have not got enlightened to that and are still lost in the maze. The wicked have even borne malice to Buddha, which has set a distinction between who is evil and who is benevolent." Isn't this what is going on in Mainland China? As Falun Dafa practitioners, let us strive harder in our cultivation and return to our true selves at an early date.
