(Minghui.org) I heard a knock at the door as I was putting my granddaughter to sleep at around 1 p.m. on June 28. I asked who it was and a man replied, “We're from the police station. Open the door. I want to check something with you.”
Two people were standing there. One in police uniform, the other in plainclothes.
“What are you doing here?” I asked firmly. “If my neighbor sees you, she'll think I did something wrong. Please leave!”
They talked to each other for a few minutes, then the one in uniform left while the other waited by my door. Only my granddaughter and I were home at the time, so I called my husband. He came home and the three of us went with the officer.
After we arrived at the police station, we were told to sit on a bench in the hallway. I waited there for a while, but nobody came to see me.
I asked the officer who took us there why he asked me to come. He said, “Someone reported you.”
“You only persecute good people,” I replied. “I practice Falun Dafa, which helps elevate people's moral values, and we follow the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. What's wrong with that? The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) encourages people to cheat others, commit evil deeds, and struggle against each other. You don't do anything about that, but rather pick on good people instead. What's the reason for this?”
The officer said nothing.
After a while, the director of the police station came out. He took me into a room and asked me, “Have you picked up Falun Gong informational materials lately? One of your practitioner friends turned you in.”
I panicked a bit because there were about a dozen Dafa books at my home and some Dafa informational materials. I also had Teacher's photo and banners with the characters Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance printed on them.
I said to the director, “My granddaughter is sleepy. I want my husband to take her home so she can rest.”
As soon as he arrived home, my husband started putting away some of the books, but the officers soon arrived too. My husband acted quickly, and put most of the books on the bed and covered them with a blanket.
A few items that he didn't have time to hide, including a few other Dafa books and Teacher's photo, ended up being confiscated.
I saw the books and Teacher's photo arrive at the police station, and felt very sad. Tears ran down my face. I said to Teacher in my heart, “Teacher, I didn't do well. I was taken advantage of by the old forces. I'm sorry.”
My thoughts then became stronger and I began to send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the dark minions behind the police officers, controlling them. “Return the Dafa books to me unconditionally,” I thought.
The dark minions must have been eliminated, as the director said, “We see that your attitude is not bad—you can leave now.”
“You must return the Dafa books,” I told him. “I can't allow you to destroy such precious books. Now it's time for everyone to choose their positions. Returning the books to me will bring you blessings.”
The director went in to his office, and returned with a bag of Dafa books. He said, “You can take them with you.” Benevolent Teacher saw my thoughts and helped me.
I was very grateful, knowing that Teacher was by my side all of the time, taking care of me and looking after me.
However, I still felt regret when I got home because Teacher's photo and banner were still at the police station. I didn't want to leave them there.
I was looking at Teacher's photo inside Zhuan Falun that evening, and said to teacher, “No matter what price I pay, I must get your photo back.”
I returned to the police station the following morning, but the officers were all in a meeting. I went back there in the afternoon, and ran into the director.
He asked why I was there. I said, “I came to pick up my teacher's photo.”
He looked at me with a straight face. “I can't give it back to you. It won't look good if you walk out of here and people see it.”
I told him that it won't be good for him if he doesn't return it to me. The director was hesitant, but then decided to return it.
Strong Righteous Thoughts Will See Me Through
The Fa-rectification has come this far—almost to the very end.
Teacher said:
“…so circumstances seem to be letting up more and more. But, as long as it hasn’t ended, the evil will be evil just the same. It’s just like how poison is bound to be poisonous, and even if you asked it not to be poisonous it couldn’t do that. So you must not lower your guard. Try your best not to let the old forces exploit any gaps in your cultivation.” (“Fa Teaching at the 2013 Greater New York Fa Conference”)
We mustn't slack off or relax on our cultivation path, and we need to be righteous when being confronted by old force interference.
I was arrested and taken to a detention center on March 9 because I filed a criminal complaint against Jiang Zemin, the former head of Chinese Communist Party.
After my release, I submitted an article to the Minghui website, as I found the attachments that got me into the tribulation.
I kept eliminating my attachments to fear, sentimentality and other evil factors in my own dimensional field. My righteous thoughts became much stronger. Under Teacher's protection, I felt very powerful when facing the old forces.
I am a Dafa disciple walking the path to divinity, so I must do the three things well. Fulfill my prehistoric vows, save sentient beings and leave less regrets when the Fa-rectification ends. I must strive forward diligently on my path!
