Clarify the Truth to Stop the Killing
Falun Dafa practitioners in Berlin, Germany held a candlelight vigil on January 12 in front of the Chinese Embassy to protest the intensified persecution of Falun Gong by Jiang's regime that has caused the recent rapid increase in number of practitioners killed. They also asked the Chinese government to immediately release Falun Dafa practitioner Xiong Wei who had studied and worked in Germany.
Falun Dafa practitioners in Denmark will hold a candlelight vigil in the afternoon on Sunday, January 13 in front of the Chinese consulate in Copenhagen to protest the intensified cruel persecution of Falun Gong practitioners by the Chinese government--especially the casual killing of Falun Gong practitioners.
Falun Gong practitioners in Washington D.C. held a peaceful protest on January 11 and 12. The intent is to strongly condemn the recent round of frenzied killings of Falun Gong practitioners in Mainland China by Jiang's criminal regime, as in just the past four days, more than 8 Falun Gong practitioners have been tortured to death.

Stories of Fa-Rectification Cultivation
Here I want to share my Fa validating experience at a shelter [note: more likely a detention center] in Guangzhou City. I was arrested and sent to a shelter when clarifying the truth in a public park. I was put in solitary confinement. Everyday, I chose an appropriate time to shout to people outside my cell, "Falun Dafa is good!" in addition to clarifying the truth. I did this for two-and-half months and several tens of thousands of people listened to me. Over the period of three months, over a hundred people came in and left the solitary confinement cell, and many of them learned to different extents the truth about Dafa. Later, with Teacher's arrangement, I walked out of this demon's den and again dove into the current of Fa-rectification.

Rectifying the Fa in Chinese Schools
Recently, influenza spread in China. Teachers and students at a school in southwest China fell ill class by class, but one class was spared. In that class only several students got the flu and they recovered within two to three days. The reason is that the head teacher of the class practices Falun Gong. Ever since she began practicing, no one has ever seen her ill. One practitioner benefits people all around her.
A middle school in southwest China held an essay competition to slander Dafa. A non-practitioner student asked her relative about Falun Gong and her relative told her the truth, so she wrote an article that was not related to Falun Gong. Later, her essay won the prize!
When my daughter and friends met in Shenzhen City, a friend from Kunming City said, "Many of us in Kunming know that everything said on CCTV about Falun Gong is untrue. Falun Gong is good."
An elementary school teacher in Yunnan Province saw the TV claiming Falun Gong is bad. She couldn't understand that if it's really bad, then why didn't the government find that out for seven years? Also, why did so many people practice it? Later, she fortunately obtained a copy of Zhuan Falun and she was very shocked after reading it. She said to everyone after she went home, "Now I know everything in Zhuan Falun is very good."
Shortly before New Year's Day, two policemen came to a practitioner's home and attempted to take away a Falun Dafa book. I said to him, "Don't move. Give me the book." The policemen were dumbfounded. I then picked up the book from the floor and left on my bike. From the human's perspective, it was demons against humans whereas from the perspective of Fa, it was humans against divine beings.
A female practitioner was sent to a brainwashing class. As she was determined
to remember what Teacher Li said and act as a true practitioner, she did not
cooperate with the police and went on a hunger strike. Whatever the police asked
her to do, she did the opposite. She walked out of the brainwashing class 14
days later. A few days later, she went to Tiananmen Square in Beijing to appeal
for Falun Dafa, and she was arrested and sent to a detention center in Beijing.
Again she refused to follow the authorities' orders. The police did not know
what to do with her, and she was released 5 days later.

One hundred and thirty-nine people issued their solemn declarations to renounce what they said and did against Falun Dafa while they were being pressured.
