(Minghui.org) In 2024, a new domestic security captain was appointed in our area. He actively followed the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. He investigated practitioners individually and forced many of them to sign the three statements to renounce Falun Gong.

In December 2024, two practitioners were arrested, for which the captain earned a bonus. Many practitioners were implicated and harassed, some were forced to sign the three statements, and some were illegally detained. One practitioner refused to confess, went on a hunger strike to protest the persecution, was force-fed, and end up with kidney failure. The cultivation environment in our area was very bad at that time.

In April 2025, my brother told me that the captain of the Domestic Security Division had called him and said that if I didn’t sign the three statements, he would take me away, and the Political and Legal Affairs Committee would make trouble for me. My heart started to race, and I knew it was fear. The captain also said that it would be okay for my brother to sign on my behalf, but my brother understood the truth and told the captain, “I can’t sign on her behalf.”

I said, “Brother, you did the right thing. You must not sign that. We can’t sign the three statements. Whoever does will have committed a crime against Dafa.”

My brother told me that my upstairs neighbor and the captain of the domestic security division were relatives and that I should buy some gifts for the neighbor and talk to him. I knew I should find a chance to clarify the truth to the captain and ask him not to commit crimes against Dafa.

Why did the evil manipulate the captain to harass me? I looked inward and realized that I only cared about my business, I didn’t study the Fa more when I had time, I couldn’t maintain strong righteous thoughts, I sometimes lost my temper, and I complained a lot. I wanted to go to the police station to clarify the truth to the captain, but I felt that I didn’t have strong enough righteous thoughts, so I was afraid.

I had clarified the truth to the captain’s relatives, and they had quit the CCP. One night, I went to talk to his relatives, and the husband agreed to go with me to talk to the captain. I said, “You have to help me speak and stand next to me.” He told me to go downstairs first, so I did. When he finally came down, he said, “I discussed it with my wife and I can’t go with you. He is just doing his job. You have your reasons, and he has his, and I feel embarrassed to be in the middle.” As soon as he said that, I knew that I was wrong: I shouldn’t rely on ordinary people, and I should not try to bribe anyone. Clarifying the truth is a matter for cultivators, and it is my path.

The first time I went to the captain’s house was at night, and a fellow practitioner went with me. I went to his house again the next the morning, but no one answered the door. I went to his house four times in a row, but I never saw him. A practitioner said, “When you went the second time, the substance that persecuted you in another dimension disintegrated, because you elevated and took that step.” Although I hadn’t seen the captain, I felt calm.

In mid-July, a practitioner was being tried, and I thought that I should go to the courthouse with the lawyer and the family members and send forth righteous thoughts for the fellow practitioner.

About 10 minutes after I entered the courtroom, six or seven police officers entered and drove me out. I wasn’t afraid at the time and asked, “What law did I break?”

The Domestic Security Division captain pulled me out from the middle of the officers and said, “What are you doing here? Isn’t it easy for me to catch you?”

I said, “I went to your house four times but never saw you. Are you really that busy?”

He said, “Yes, I am. Don’t come to me, I’ll go to you when I have time.”

A few days later, the captain came to see me. I felt that something was pressing down on me, and I couldn’t clarify the truth to him. He took out the three statements and ordered me to sign them, but I didn’t. I said, “In the past, I was not in good health and suffered from many ailments, but ever since I started practicing, Falun Dafa I’ve been in good health. I can’t sign those statements.” He said, “If you don’t, I won’t be so nice next time.”

The captain talked to my sister, but I couldn’t hear what he said. A few minutes later, my sister said that she would sign for me. I said, “If you do, you will both bear the consequences of committing a crime against Dafa. I won’t recognize a forged signature.”

He said, “Even a forged one is fine.” My sister signed it.

I thought, “Why did things turn out this way? My sister signed on my behalf—the old forces want to destroy her.” I talked to another practitioner about this, and she said, “You didn’t cultivate well so that was the outcome.” I looked inward, and the most important thing was that I didn’t have a strong wish to save the domestic security captain, plus I was fearful.

My sister and I studied the Fa more intensively. I said to her, “We should not be afraid. We should only focus on saving people. We have to clarify the truth to the captain and make up for the losses caused to Dafa. Let’s clarify the truth. You write a solemn statement and take back the three statements you signed. If he doesn’t give them back to you, give him your solemn statement and announce that the statements you signed are invalid.” My sister agreed.

I called the captain and said, “I didn’t explain things clearly the last time we met. I want to talk to you again.” He said he would be out of town for the next two weeks, so I told him I would contact him when he got back.

Over the next 10 days, my sister and I studied the Fa a lot. I said, “Sister, let’s cooperate and act as one body. When I clarify the truth to him, you send righteous thoughts, and when you talk to him, I will send forth righteous thoughts. We shouldn’t be afraid, because Master gives us strength. The captain is a sentient being to be saved, and we must use compassion to influence him and truly save him.”

Two weeks later, he came to see me. My sister and I invited him in warmly before I got straight to the point and asked if he was a Party member. When he said he was, I urged him, “Quit the Party for a better future.”

“You asked me here just to say this?” he asked.

I explained, “Even high-ranking officials are quitting the Party to keep safe. Heaven will destroy it. You should quit as soon as possible to be safe.”

When my sister told him about the CCP-staged Tiananmen Square self-immolation and the U.S. House of Representatives passing the Falun Gong Protection Act, he said, “I have heard about these things.” My sister and I had strong righteous thoughts during our conversation. He had a friendly expression on his face as he listened to us.

I said, “Let me tell you a story, which you don’t necessarily have to believe it. When you were in heaven, you were a king. When you were about to reincarnate, you were arranged to be a policeman. You cried and said, ‘I don’t want to be a policeman, because when the CCP persecutes Falun Gong, the police who participate in the persecution will not be able to come back.’ The god who arranges reincarnation said, ‘When Dafa disciples clarify the truth to you, you must believe it!’”

The captain didn’t respond, so I continued, “You also know that two police officers in our area tortured and persecuted many Dafa practitioners. They both died horrible deaths in a car accident. Do you know, at that time, we were all very sad. When we told them that those involved in persecuting Dafa disciples would meet with retribution, they did not believe us. Good will be rewarded and evil will meet with retribution, this is a principle of heaven. Law enforcement officers who persecute Dafa practitioners will be brought to justice in the future. I hope you will agree to quit the Party to ensure your safety.” He agreed. I asked him twice, “Do you agree to quit the Party?” Both times he said, “I agree.”

I said, “You told me before that if I didn’t sign the three statements, you would do something to me, but I knew you wouldn’t.”

“You’re right,” he said. “I couldn’t do that.”

I said, “But you asked my sister to sign the three statements on my behalf, so you committed a crime against Dafa, which is not good for you or for us. You should give them back to us.”

He said he couldn’t get them back, so my sister handed him her solemn statement and said, “If you can’t get them back, submit this to your boss and tell him that those three statements are invalid.”

“Okay,” he said, “I’ll accept this.”

I urged him to protect practitioners in his job, and he said he would try his best. My sister said, “I hope that when there are catastrophes, you and your family will survive.”

The captain then said, “Those who practice Falun Gong are all good people, and ordinary people couldn’t do what they do. I hope you will come to my family’s parties sometimes.”

We said, “We will if you invite us.”
