Solemn Declaration
I started to practice Falun Dafa back in January 1999. After the Chinese communist regime began to suppress Falun Dafa, I went to Beijing to appeal for Dafa on July 22 that same year. As soon as I got off the train, however, the police officers arrested me, illegally, and confiscated all the Falun Dafa books I had in my backpack. I was taken back to my local police station, forced to sign a "pledge not to practice Falun Gong" and to turn in the Falun Gong audio tapes and videotapes to the local neighborhood committee.
In October 1999, I was on a business trip with my family members in a neighboring town when an officer interrogated me on my practice of Falun Gong. Despite my answer that was inconsistent with the principle of Falun Dafa, they arrested me and illegally imprisoned me for five months. Once again, I was forced to write the statement of repentance to not appeal for or practice Falun Gong, and to put my signature on the police form. After this incident, Teacher hinted to me again and again.
On the very night I wrote the statement of repentance, I dreamed of a herd of foxes and weasels stabbing my throat with numerous knives. The next morning, my throat was so stuffed that I couldn't breathe. Such a state lasted for an extended period of time until I finally awoke to the truth. Later, with various excuses, the authorities at the detention center extended my imprisonment for two more months. After I was released, I still did not take myself as a practitioner. Instead I created negative images for Falun Dafa.
Today I'd like to return to the path of cultivation practice, take the path that Teacher has arranged for me, and completely negate the old forces' arrangements. I hereby solemnly declare null and void everything I said, did and wrote before that did not conform to Dafa. I will redouble my efforts, make up for the loss I brought to Dafa, and do the three things well.
