Facts of the Persecution
The Legal Education School in Huangpu, Guangzhou City is where the persecutors brutally torture Dafa practitioners. These callous people beat and kick the practitioners, or they force the practitioners to keep a painful position for a very long time, sometimes half a month, without sleep. For practitioners who hold a hunger strike, the guards tie them to a chair and force-feed them red hot pepper water, or they poke holes in the practitioners' mouths with sharp tools. These thugs hit the practitioners' chest and head with their fist or with metal pipes, and violently knock the practitioners with tobacco pipes. They also pull practitioners' fingernails from the nail bed until they break off the finger, which causes profuse bleeding and pain beyond description. Some guards push the practitioners' heads into a toilet bowl and force them to drink the dirty sewage.
At least 100 female Dafa practitioners in Fujian Province are being illegally detained at the Fujian Provincial Female Labor Camp, also called "Fujian Provincial Education and Morality School," which is in fact a brainwashing institution. Determined Dafa practitioners are detained in solitary confinement and forced to stand for a long time without being permitted to sleep, and they are forced to listen to Dafa-slandering propaganda. Among the persecuted practitioners are judges of high courts, university teachers, doctors, company employees, government officials, factory workers and farmers. Some are recent college graduates and also retired elementary school principal(s).
The authorities in Jiamusi City Labor Camp use all kinds of heartless, cruel means to torture the practitioners, and don't even allow the practitioners to go to the restroom. Many practitioners cannot take care of themselves and need immediate medical attention because of the tortures they suffered, yet the labor camp refuses to release them. Dafa practitioner Ms. Zhao Juan experienced heart disease, shortness of breath and whole-body muscle weakness due to torture. She can hardly walk. She is often carried to the workshop where the practitioners are forced to do the camp's slave labor.
Beginning on October 17, the authorities at Daqing City Prison started another round of persecution. They don't allow Dafa practitioners to sleep. They force them to sit in the daytime and stand at night. They punish the practitioners for even blinking their eyes. They try to destroy the practitioners' will and force them to give up their belief through torture.
Practitioners Exchange Insights
A Dafa practitioner said to her ten-year-old son, also a Dafa practitioner, "I think I am not a high-level practitioner. Because my enlightenment quality is poor, sometimes even when Master prompted me I still couldn't do well; sometimes I knew it was not right to do something but I did it anyways because I couldn't give up my attachment." Her son told her, "No you are wrong. I used to see your thoughts taking shape in other dimensions that look exactly like you. They exist from your dimension to every dimension below that. Because its mind is connected to yours, it helps the evil to withdraw before you attack the evil; it also takes the form of a deity and launches sudden attacks on real deities; it also make you have bad thoughts, such as Dafa-slandering thoughts, by instilling them into your mind. So, you absolutely cannot have such thoughts and allow them to take form!" He also said, "If we concentrate when sending forth righteous thoughts, we can emit a ball-shaped supernormal ability. If we think it is as large as the cosmos, it will gradually encompass the cosmos. If your supernormal ability is powerful, it will send forth lightning. If we focus our minds on eliminating evil, the lightning will surround it and quickly destroy parts of it."
Validating Dafa and truly thinking of others at all times: what is the purpose of cultivation? I think the first thing is to be a good person; then it's elevation of xinxing and level. In the end we try to become great enlightened beings that are altruistic and selfless. How do we start from a person full of desires and sentiments? I want to remind everyone of two things: first, we should regard the Fa as the teacher at all times, and strictly conduct ourselves according to the Fa at all times; secondly, it's easy to be a good person for one day, but it's hard to do that for a whole lifetime. We must persevere if we are to cultivate ourselves. In daily life, when others have troubles and ask us for help, we should help them the best we can, without wanting anything in return. We should strictly conduct ourselves according to the Fa and try not to add trouble to the life of others; we shouldn't make people do things beyond their ability. I realized that helping other practitioners is also an important component of our own cultivation. When we help each other, we discover many attachments we are usually unaware of. Let's encourage each other, correct our mistakes and improve as a whole body.
