(Clearwisdom.net) I'm 73 years old and have been practicing Falun Dafa since January 10, 1996. On the evening of August 6, 2008, during the time of the Beijing Olympics, my husband went out to distribute truth-clarification booklets. He was discovered by a patrol and taken to the residential community guardroom. They took away his keys. It was around 10:00 in the evening, and I was about to go to sleep. Suddenly, eight people barged into our house. Without saying anything, they started to search all over the house and took away our Dafa books. After fellow practitioners became aware of what happened, and they all sent forth righteous thoughts to disintegrate the evil. Under the protection of compassionate Master, my husband came back home around midnight.
The next day I thought that I shouldn't wait at home; instead I should go to clarify the truth to the party secretary who was in charge. Master said, “Wherever there's a problem, that is where you need to clarify the truth and save people.” (“Teaching the Fa at the Washington, D.C. Fa Conference”) So I went to meet the party secretary at 3:00 p.m. on August 8. The security guard wouldn't let me past the gate regardless of what I said. I was thinking that the Olympics weren't as important as me clarifying the truth to him, and that he must let me in. Strengthened by Master, I managed to meet the party secretary. I went into his office and found that there were many people there. They were sitting in a circle and the party secretary was in the middle. They all looked very serious. I sat down and I was very calm. I thought that regardless of who they were, the more people the better, as they were all there to listen to the truth.
I started to say that Falun Gong practitioners cultivate themselves according to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. If a practitioner were to find a huge amount of money on the street, he or she would stay there and wait for its owner. If everyone practiced Falun Gong, we wouldn't need police, because everyone could discipline himself. At this point, they all seemed to be relaxed. Later, I talked about Dafa's miraculous power in healing illnesses and the corruption of the Chinese Communist Party. The party secretary interrupted and asked me, “Are you a member of the party?” I said “No.” He said, “If you were, you must have quit it a long time ago.” I said that all party members need to quit it immediately.
I pretty well covered the basic truth during this period of about one hour. The security guard brought in the Social Security Director from my workplace. He was very surprised when he saw me sitting in the office. He wouldn't let me continue and insisted that I go back home, saying that the party secretary was very busy during the Olympics. I said that the party secretary wasn't that busy and was very willing to listen the truth. In the end, when I left, the party secretary walked me out and said, “Falun Gong practitioners are actually good people.” I felt really happy for him as he understood the truth.
Afterwards, I learned that there in the Party secretary's office was the head of the Police Department, the head of the Security Division, the head of the Labor and Social Security office, and the head of the Security Section. Later, I went to clarify the truth to the director of the Police Department and the chief of the Security Division. They were very polite and understood the truth.
