(Clearwisdom.net) On July 13, 2008, I was passing out Falun Dafa information on the street and was reported to the police. I was not afraid at all at that time. I just explained the truth about Falun Gong to the young man who reported me. The people who surrounded us also tried to persuade the young man not to report me, but the he didn't listen. Then I started to run away to avoid arrest. The young man caught me and held me down to the ground. So I just sat on the ground and started to send forth righteous thoughts. It was lightly raining at that time and the ground was wet. But later I found that my clothes didn't get wet at all. It was really a miracle. Some people who surrounded me said the pavement was very cold, but I didn't feel cold at all because Teacher was protecting me. After the police vehicle came, I didn't cooperate with the police. They had to call another four to five officers to come and lift me into the police vehicle. I didn't cooperate with them at any time and shouted loudly "Falun Dafa is good!" and "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!"
After I arrived at the police station, I refused to answer any questions. Instead, I just explained the truth about Falun Gong and the persecution. Later I was locked in a cage. I sent forth righteous thoughts and shouted, "Falun Dafa is good!" and " Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!" As soon as I saw someone, I didn't hesitate to clarify the facts about Falun Gong, I asked them to quit the CCP and its related organizations, and told them the Sichuan Earthquake disaster was not only a natural disaster, but was also a disaster caused by the CCP. I was not afraid at all at that time. That night, I recited one of Teacher's Fa lectures. That's when I started to realize the importance of reciting the Fa. Another thing I regretted was that I didn't send out the "Minghui Weekly" first before I passed out the other Dafa materials. Nearly thirty VCDs were confiscated by the police and couldn't be used to save people. I also regretted that my three exercise tapes were taken by the police.
I also practiced the five sets of exercises at night. Then I practiced again after midnight. The next day when the police came to work, I started shouting, "Falun Dafa is good!" again and explained the true situation of Dafa to the police. After 9 o'clock, the police brought me to the chief officer's office, where I was asked to give my name. I refused to tell them and I just told them the facts about Falun Dafa. All the VCDs were on the chief police officer's desk. The chief police officer then said, "You can go now." I said, "Can you return the VCDs to me?" The chief police said that he would distribute the VCDs for me at an upcoming meeting.
From this situation I saw that many sentient beings already understand the truth. Dafa disciples must believe in Teacher and believe in the Fa. I deeply realized that as long as our disciples have righteous thoughts, tribulations will be dispelled by Teacher. Teacher is always beside us. Some practitioners anticipated that anyone arrested because of the Beijing Olympics would not be able to get out. These are all human notions and will also give the old forces an excuse to persecute us. As long as we believe in Teacher and believe in the Fa, everything we do will have good results. We are Dafa disciples during the Fa-rectification period. Helping Teacher to rectify the Fa is the path we should follow. Our paths of cultivation are arranged by Teacher. If every Dafa disciple who is still detained in the evil's dark dens truly believed in Teacher and in the Fa, and if all of them had very strong righteous thoughts and no attachment of fear, the situation would be different. "My body would still sit there even with my head cut off." ("Huge Exposure" from Essentials for Further Advancement).
After this experience, I looked inside. When I passed out the Dafa information materials, was my only thought saving people? Sometimes I also felt fear. Sometimes I have the thought of "finishing the task." But at the critical moment, I need to let go of life and death. Teacher is beside me, so anything is possible. I believe that if all Dafa disciples who are still detained in the evils' dark dens believe in Teacher and believe in the Fa, the dark dens will no longer exist.
