Over Two Dozen Dafa Practitioners in China Validate the Fa on Tiananmen Square

Oct. 31, 2001

(Clearwisdom.net) On October 12, with great courage, over two dozen Dafa practitioners in China went to Tiananmen to validate the Fa. They unfurled banners reading, "Falun Dafa is Good" and cried out to the whole universe, "Falun Dafa is good!" "Falun Dafa is the righteous Fa!" "Restore Dafa's reputation!" "Restore Master Li Hongzhi's reputation!" With this, they fulfilled their vows made in the remote past. Over half of the practitioners returned home safely, but at least nine practitioners were arrested; some were severely beaten. Two practitioners in the Square were arrested in front of the Golden Water Bridge. Special agents arrested and viciously hit the face of a young practitioner. Undaunted, this practitioner kept holding up the banner and shouted, "Falun Dafa is good!" "Falun Dafa is the righteous Fa!" "Restore Dafa's reputation!" "Restore Master Li Hongzhi's reputation!" He disregarded the great pain and humiliation. A large number of passers-by and tourists on Tiananmen Square witnessed the evil's ugliness, and the greatness and compassion of Dafa practitioners.

Many people were completely shocked by the heroic undertaking of Dafa practitioners and stared at this moving and tragic scene until Dafa practitioners were taken into a row of small single-storey houses for further interrogation and torture.

Dafa practitioners kept firmly in mind not to cooperate with the evil, as Master taught them. They refused to cooperate with the interrogation, tried to persuade people to stop doing evil deeds, and kept clarifying the truth and offering salvation to those who were deceived. Six practitioners were later sent to the Tiananmen Police Station. Every one of the practitioners refused to cooperate with the evil interrogation. None of them told the evil anything, including their name, address, age, or educational background. When in police custody, they shared their experiences and never asked each other their names or addresses. They kept encouraging each other and consolidating their strong righteous thoughts and their unshakable belief in Master and the Fa. They did group practice and sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil, including all the evil forces on Tainanmen Square and its police station.

Later, the six practitioners were separated and sent to two other police stations for further interrogation. In one of the stations, two illegally detained male practitioners, with the great merciful help from Master, safely walked out of the den of monsters and went back into the current of Fa-rectification.
