(Minghui.org) Over 20 police officers broke into my home in July 2022 and ransacked the place while video-recording the entire process for nearly 12 hours. They confiscated my computers, printers, Falun Dafa books and Master’s photo. The police separated me from my husband. My husband was so frightened that I comforted him with my voice to calm him down.
I had no resentment or hatred toward the police. I told them the truth about Falun Dafa in a peaceful manner and with great compassion. I told them why they needed to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its youth organizations, and about high ranking officials, like Zhou Yongkang and Bo Xilai who persecuted practitioners, receiving retribution that also affected their family members. I reminded the police that it is illegal for them to ransack my home and take away my personal belongings.
They mentioned an article I wrote that was published on the Internet in 2020. I told them it was to expose the CCP’s persecution of Falun Dafa and I would continue to write as long as the persecution continues. I did not cooperate with any of their demands. The chief of the police department soon came and I clarified the truth to him. In the end they put my husband and me under residential surveillance for six months.
I thought the matter was over, but the officers who ransacked my home called me on February 28, 2023, telling me to collect my computer. I did not realize this was a trick until they detained me at the police station. I reminded myself not to cooperate with them and to face the persecution with righteous thoughts.
They took me to a detention center at night, but the doctor there refused to accept me as my physical examination result did not meet the minimum requirement for detention. The police continued to pressure them, and in the end the detention center accepted me.
I told myself I would clarify the truth and save the sentient beings here. There were four practitioners in the same cell as me who had been illegally detained for over eight months. They had suffered a lot and could not even remember how to recite “On Dafa”. I recited “On Dafa” for them and told them about Master’s New Article “How Humankind Came To Be”, and news of Shen Yun. They were encouraged. They took good care of me as my physical condition deteriorated badly due to the persecution.
A person in there for murder was told to monitor me. I was talking with fellow practitioners, and this person asked if she could listen to our conversation. I told her it was ok, but one practitioner thought that the people there were truly bad people and she didn’t want her to listen in on our conversation. I shared my thoughts, “I realize my persecution was partially due to unrighteous matters which increased in my dimensional field. I looked down on my husband and blamed him for not doing the exercises or truly cultivating himself. I always wanted to change him and didn’t want to change myself. Now I realize that it is my attachments to competitiveness, jealousy, and lust that brought the bad substances and caused my tribulations. Even though I always cleared it in the past, it would still show up. I made up my mind to completely get rid of it.”
I continued, “Please don’t look down on others. We should look within and have enough compassion to tolerate and understand them. We have Master and Dafa to protect us and we will leave here soon. However, these people don’t know how long they will be here. They are also suffering. Yes, they made a lot of mistakes. But it is also the troubled world that caused all these issues. Who doesn’t want to be a good person?”
The person in there for murder was very happy after hearing what I said. Another inmate gave thumbs up. Dafa practitioners’ compassion warmed their cold and numb hearts, and changed their attitudes toward practitioners.
The murderer told other inmates, “Please stop bullying Dafa practitioners. When you bully them, they don’t fight back. They are cultivating their virtue and you are losing yours.”
Clarifying the Truth While Homeless and Destitute
I was detained for more than 20 days and recited the Fa and sent forth righteous thoughts whenever I could. On March 23, I thought it was time for me to leave as I needed to go out and help Master save people. I asked Master to help me. Soon I had the symptoms of illness karma that mimicked a heart attack and a stroke. The guards took me to the hospital and recorded the entire process. My sister and daughter bailed me out to receive medical treatment the next day. However, the police did not stop persecuting me. They came to me for a court hearing and still wanted to imprison me. I refused to cooperate and had to become homeless and destitute to avoid harassment. I left my hometown and went to another city.
Although I was in an unfamiliar environment, a practitioner took good care of me and let me stay in the large room of her home. She also found time from her very busy schedule to study the Fa with me and share cultivation experiences. I am very grateful to this practitioner and for Master’s arrangement. I stayed there for 10 days to adjust myself, before renting a place.
My cultivation environment changed and there was no longer a Fa study group to attend or fellow practitioners I could work with to clarify the truth. Sometimes I felt lonely and wished the CCP could be dismantled as soon as possible, so I could go back home.
I know this was my human notions acting up. I am a Dafa practitioner and can cultivate myself in any environment. I told Master in my heart that I can do it. I started going out to clarify the truth on the street. In my hometown, usually a few practitioners worked together to clarify the truth in the market, which was highly effective. When one person understood the truth, he or she would call over their family and neighbors who were also at the market to listen. Typically, a group of people would be able to listen to the truth. Here at the new place, there are no practitioners to work with and I have to face things on my own.
I went to a bridge with bus stops on either side to clarify the truth. I first met three students and told them the truth about Dafa and the persecution. They understood and gave me their names to quit the CCP. Then I told two adults nearby the truth and they also agreed to quit.
Master has opened up my wisdom and I clarify the truth without choosing who to talk to. I now even speak to people who look vicious, as they aren’t necessarily bad people. I usually greet people first, and ask whether they ever got infected with the CCP virus (coronavirus). Then I start a conversation and tell them that believing in Buddhas and Gods will bring them blessings when catastrophes appear. Naturally, I talk about quitting the CCP to stay safe and the CCP’s heinous crime of live organ harvesting from Falun Dafa practitioners. Most people agree to quit the Party. Some express their sympathy for Falun Dafa and are disgusted with the CCP. Depending on their level of acceptance, I give them Dafa amulets or the Minghui Weekly with Master’s New Article “How Humankind Came To Be”. Occasionally, some people do not accept them and scold me. I take it lightly and move on to the next person.
I met an elderly woman. After chatting with her, I realized she had heard the truth of Falun Dafa many times but did not understand it clearly nor had she quit the CCP. I let her know that other practitioners told her the truth for her own good without expecting anything in return. I also told her the truth in more depth. The woman looked around to make sure nobody was nearby and whispered to me, “I will quit. My heart feels very warm sitting next to you.”
Another time, I got lost and it turned dark. An elderly man came over and told me there was no way to go further. I started chatting with him. He told me he admired the founder of Falun Dafa, Master Li, and the worldwide popularity of the practice. He often read truth-clarification brochures. I praised him, saying, “You know the truth, and will not be deceived by the Party. Make sure to pass the brochures on to your relatives and friends to let them know the truth. This is a very good thing and you will be rewarded for your good deeds.”
I have now found other practitioners to study the Fa and clarify the truth with, and integrated into this new environment. I am very grateful to Master for everything he has done for me, and I’m grateful to all the practitioners who have helped me. I will walk steadily on the path of Fa-rectification cultivation and fulfill my historic vows.
