My Path of Cultivation

June 13, 2003

(Clearwisdom.net)

I obtained the Fa in spring, 1996. At that moment I knew very well the value of Dafa and I decided to cultivate until I succeeded.

The evil began to persecute Dafa and practitioners in 1999. I went to Beijing to appeal and was arrested by the police on my way. They beat me up, and then put me in a detention center illegally for two years.

In the detention center, I saw and erased sentences attacking Master and Dafa on the blackboard in the hallway. The police came right away to handcuff me. They used two electric batons to shock me. Master's voice sounded in my ears: "Do not be afraid." I knew that Master was protecting me. Immediately the current of the electric baton seemed to run in reverse. The police wondered: "How come we could not shock her?"

They then hit my face, beat me up, made me squat and wouldn't let me sleep. With one of my hands cuffed, I used the other to exercise and meditate. The police came in to kick me and hit me. I put down any thoughts about living or dying, and thought only about protecting Dafa and Master. Finding that I would not submit, the police went to my home and ransacked it. They got my fingerprints by force, and tried to force me to write the "three statements" (consisting of a letter of repentance, a guarantee to never again practice Falun Gong, and a list of names and addresses of all family members, friends and acquaintances who are practitioners). I refused to cooperate with them and began a hunger strike. On the ninth day, the police began force-feeding me. Seeing what was happening, people in the whole room joined me in the hunger strike. The police asked the inmates to watch us. We clarified the truth to the inmates, and they helped us to pass Master's articles around.

One day the police told us to move. We went to a new place and saw in other dimensions that it was filled with lotus flowers and was truly beautiful. I knew it was Master encouraging us. I was released soon afterwards. Later I went to a school to do cleaning. The students and teachers all said, "Falun Gong practitioners are truly good. You can tell that our rooms are cleaner than others." I used my actions to spread Dafa, clarify the truth and save sentient beings.
