(Minghui.org) My sister, cousins, aunt, and I went to the high speed rail station on our way to a friend’s wedding in June 2021. While going through security, the police stopped me and took me to the police station. They illegally searched my bag, wanting to know where I got my book Zhuan Falun and the bills with messages about Falun Dafa written on them. I said, “I can’t tell you.”
I tried to clarify the truth to the officers and explained why they needed to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its youth organizations so they could have a bright future. No matter how I tried to get through to them, they wouldn’t listen. They interrogated me for 11 hours and told me to sign some documents. I refused, so they transferred me to a detention center.
I told the police, “You are trying to pin a crime on me that I didn’t commit and you are holding me here illegally. You are the ones violating the law. You will bear the consequences for your false accusations, especially now because accountability for wrongful prosecution cases will be permanent records and can be re-tried in the future.”
I was held in Room 106 in the detention center. I sent forth righteous thoughts and recited the Fa from memory. I decided to help other detainees quit the CCP. After someone quit the Party and was transferred to another section, new detainees were transferred to my cell. Due to the pandemic, the detention center did not accept any more new arrivals, so I was transferred to Room 211, then Room 204.
There were some inmates held on drug trafficking charges who did not believe what I told them about Dafa and screamed profanities at me. I quickly looked within and found my attachment to showing-off and not watching what I said. After I elevated my character and eliminated my attachments, they were much more willing to accept the truth and quit the CCP. They even thanked me.
An inmate once poured water on my bed. The blanket was so wet that I couldn’t sleep. She also stole my shampoo and toilet paper, but it didn’t bother me. I only said to her, “When you commit wrongdoings, it stays with you. When you perform a kind act, it comes back to you.” Master’s Fa has helped me cultivate compassion. I sympathized with her because her family did not send her money to buy necessities.
The detention center head soon heard about the incidents in my cell and wanted to talk with me. I’d long wanted to save the guards, and told her it was because of Master Li Hongzhi’s (Falun Dafa’s founder) teachings that I was able to tolerate many things. I also told her how the people responsible for orchestrating the Tiananmen Square self-immolation incident received the karmic retribution they deserved. The executive director of the incident, Lee, was imprisoned, and the producer, Chen, died from stomach cancer at the age of 47.
I then explained how the CCP initiated the persecution of Falun Dafa. She was very willing to listen and chose to quit the CCP. After a while, she was promoted and transferred to the Public Safety Bureau.
A new detainee later arrived who was a CCP member and middle-level government official. She was imprisoned in the Commission for Discipline Inspections for six months before being transferred to the detention center. She lost seven million yuan and was afraid that she would lose her job. She was always in a bad mood and constantly arguing with people in the detention center. She was then called into the head’s office to have a conversation. She returned and said to me, “The head wants me to learn from you, because you would never hit back when being beaten or talk back when being yelled at. She says you have superior self-control.”
The new detention center head asked me, “How long do you do the exercises for every day?” I told her that I would wake up at 3 a.m. and do the exercises until 6 a.m. She was surprised and commented, “You sleep so little, but you look so energetic. Falun Dafa practitioners are very different from the other inmates.”
When I was tried in court, I clarified the truth to everyone and asked the prosecutor, as well as the assistant prosecutor to quit the Party. I told them not to persecute Dafa practitioners. I said that if they did, it would bring them terrible consequences in the future. I also told them that my Master has asked his disciples, risking their own lives, to save people so they can all have a bright future. I added that, if they believed me, they could also benefit from reading Zhuan Falun.
When a defense attorney came to see me, I asked her, “Are you willing to listen to me and hear why Falun Dafa has been persecuted by the CCP?” I clarified the truth to her and agreed to take her as my attorney. She also chose to quit the Party.
During the court session, I did not rely on my attorney. I stated, “There is no written law or official statement that labels Falun Dafa as a cult. Under the current law and rulings, publishing Dafa books is legal, and what is happening today in this court is illegal. What is a cult? The judges here know better than I do. The CCP is the cult that combined politics with religion. Falun Dafa is a righteous practice. Its practitioners cultivate Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. I broke my back after being run over by a car, and I couldn’t take care of myself. But I didn’t ask for a dime from the perpetrator.”
The judge tried to silence me, “Don’t mention anything unrelated to this case.”
I replied, “I am able to think about other people first because I practice Falun Dafa. My character has improved as a result.”
One person watching the trial was a Chinese medicine doctor. He said, “In modern society, only Falun Dafa practitioners don’t ask people for compensation.”
The judge, plaintiff, jury, court clerk, lawyer, and those in the audience listened intently as I spoke. The court later illegally sentenced me to a couple of months imprisonment. The judge dropped the gavel after announcing the sentence and couldn’t pound it on the wooden block.
On the day I was released, a few people stood at the gate waiting for their loved ones. I walked up to them and helped them quit the CCP. They were very happy to quit and thanked me. I told them to thank my Master because he asked me to come and save them.
After returning to work, I saw some new faces. I was clarifying the truth to them when the political commissar walked into the office and shook my hand. “You have suffered a lot,” he said, “I’m glad you’re back. Dafa practitioners have brought good fortune to us.”
“Believing that Falun Dafa is good and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good has brought good fortune to you,” I replied.
The commissar continued, “The leaders have decided not to cancel your retirement account because we were afraid that you wouldn’t have any financial means to live on in the future. Since cultivating Falun Dafa, you have always put others and the workplace first. When you broke your legs and back after the accident last year, you didn’t ask for any compensation from the perpetrator. You have such high moral character. This is your spiritual belief. If we canceled your pension, we would not be able to live with ourselves.”
People treat Dafa practitioners with kindness after learning the truth. They have also created a good future for themselves and future generations.
