Rectify the Fa With Righteous Thoughts and Righteous Deeds Dictated and collected by practitioners in China
(Clearwisdom.net) 1. Dafa rescued me from the brink of death In 1973, a piece of lumber that fell from a big construction truck shattered
a bone in my right leg while I worked on a reservoir. The accident resulted in
permanent disability. For many years I had to use a cane to walk. My right leg
was 2-3 centimeters (almost one inch) shorter than the left one. The muscles on
my right leg atrophied. The knee joint and the malleolus joint were swollen and
were in chronic pain. Afterwards, the muscles on the right side of my body
completely atrophied. Even after receiving pain-killing injections, I could only
move several steps. Over the past several years I was clinically dead six times.
On September 15, 1998, I had the good fortune to obtain the
Fa. Three months later, the muscles on the right side of my body totally
recovered, and both legs became the same length. Seeing the miracles happening
to my body, many people in the town came to learn Dafa. After July 20, 1999, my father told me, "My child, it is your
Teacher who gave you a second life. Whatever happens, you need to keep your
Teacher in your heart!" I said to myself, "Teacher lengthened everyday of my
life! I must treasure every single day, and use everything in my power to
validate Dafa." 2. Safeguarding the Fa, and appealing to rectify the Fa After July 20, many fellow practitioners in my city went to
Beijing to appeal for Dafa, but I did not go because I did not have money at
that time. However, I went to the Municipal Party Committee, the Municipal
Government, the District Government, and the City Police Department. I told them
that I had only practiced for three months, but my 25-year-long disability was
completely healed through practicing Falun Gong. Despite this, the government was now refusing to allow me to
practice. In addition, they slandered our Teacher and slandered Falun Gong. I
wished to prove with my personal experience that the government was wrong. They
all said, "We can see you did change into another person. We are happy for your
being healthy. If you feel good, just practice at home!" Unfortunately, not long
after that, the police department sent some officers to search my house. They
took away all my Dafa books. They also abducted me to the police station where
they tried to force me to give up practicing Falun Gong. Inside the police
station I saw that the book was lying on the table. I grabbed the book and held
it to my chest. The police tried to snatch my book. I shouted loudly, "This book is my lifeblood." All three police officers present were scared away. At that
time, the only thought I had was that it was time for me to practice the
exercises and they should let me go immediately. As soon as I had that thought,
they released me. After I practiced the exercises, I realized that I did not
have books to study the Fa. That was not acceptable, and I must go to them to
get them back the next day. The day after my Dafa books were confiscated, I went to the
district police department to ask for the return of my book. The chief of the
National Security Section not only refused to return my book, but also
threatened to imprison me. On the third day I went to the Appeals Office for the
Municipal Party Committee and asked them to return my book. They did not give it
back to me, but ordered the security guard to escort me out. I was not moved by
that, but went to one of the side entrances of the Municipal Party Committee and
sat down. Having no other avenue to appeal my unjust treatment, I
shouted loudly: "I practice Falun Gong! Please come and take a look. The
policemen are unreasonable. They went to my home and confiscated all my books. I
was lame for 25 years, and had taken tons of medicines that did not work. I have
practiced Falun Gong for only three months, and all my illnesses have been
cured. My Teacher is the greatest! They treat our Teacher and Falun Gong
unjustly!" As soon as I raised my voice, the security guard was frightened and
quickly ran away. Many passersby surrounded me. I clarified the truth about
Falun Gong to them. 3. Breaking out of the evils' den three times with righteous
thoughts and righteous actions Ever since I went to appeal and to validate Dafa, the police
frequently sent people to my home to harass me. In mid-December 2000, the police
deceived me into attending a brainwashing session. I warned myself that I must
not say that I would give up practice. More than 30 practitioners were in that
brainwashing session. None of us collaborated with the evil. Eight days passed.
The police had become flustered and exasperated and imprisoned all of us in a
detention center. As soon as I arrived there I staged a hunger strike to protest
the illegal treatment. I said to Teacher in my heart, "This is not the place for
a Dafa practitioner. I must quickly return home to study the Fa, practice the
exercises, and clarify the truth." On the third day of my hunger strike, they attempted to give
me an injection. I pulled the needle out, and refused to cooperate, hence they
were not successful. A young guy said he would force-feed me. I said from the
bottom of my heart to him, "Thank you." At that moment, he was so scared that he
stepped back three steps. I felt that this compassion was so powerful. They
located my husband to come to persuade me. I had already made up my mind that I
would not eat or drink anything. My husband also warned them sternly, "If
something happens to her, none of you will have a day of peace." As a result,
the police released me on the sixth day. After returned home, I continued doing what a Dafa
practitioner should do. The police frequently came and looked for me. The
so-called director of the district Political and Judiciary Committee brought
newspapers that slandered Dafa for me to read. He also ordered me to curse our
Teacher. I sternly warned him: "You officials are too obscene. You do not have
any civilized manners. My Teacher is like a parent who teaches us to be good!
Why should I curse him? Does that mean you curse your parents several times a
day?" He left dejectedly. After July 20th, I took any opportunity to clarify
the truth and expose the lies to save people. Except for clarifying the truth
together with fellow practitioners, I usually clarify the truth to people face
to face, and send them the truth clarifying literature, regardless of who they
might be -- elementary school students, middle school students, the young or old
alike. No matter whether I'm walking, shopping, on the way to work or taking the
bus, I always use my wisdom that Teacher gave me to clarify the truth to
different people with different methods. I tell them about the miracles that
happened to me. Certainly, I would always send forth righteous thoughts first to
eliminate the evil elements behind them, so that they would not think about bad
things; thus the effect was always quite good. I realized that Teacher treasures
the lives of us practitioners and sentient beings to the utmost. I had been
resuscitated after my heart stopped on six occasions in the past, therefore I
feel even stronger about how precious life is. I really treasure every living
being that I meet. Teacher had arranged for me all encounters with every person
I meet, to tell them the truth, as to offer them salvation. I should not miss
this opportunity which may be their only chance to be saved. On the morning of May 13, 2002, when I was clarifying the
truth to a customer at work, a vicious person reported me. Thus, several
criminal policemen searched my home, confiscated my property and abducted me to
the police station. They attempted to coerce me to tell them the source of these
materials. I refused to cooperate. I sent forth righteous thoughts and asked
Teacher to strengthen me, as well as send out my Gong [energy] to confuse
their mind and prevent others from seeing me. After a while, one after another,
the policemen went out to lunch. The office of a dozen people was suddenly
empty. I walked out of the police station with ease. I thought that I was doing
the best and the most righteous thing in the universe, that I did nothing wrong,
so I went back home. The police searched around and finally abducted me again
from home. During an interrogation the next day I shouted, "Falun Dafa
is good! Falun Dafa is the righteous Fa! Restore the reputation of our Teacher!"
The criminal policeman who interrogated me was scared and
immediately left. Another one also felt it hard to stay around, so the
interrogation was in vain. The guard then ordered three criminals to carry me
back to the [detention center] cell. Along the way I shouted, "Falun Dafa is
good!" I told those in the cell, "I will return home in a few days, because I
did nothing wrong. It was completely for others' sake!" I continued to clarify
the truth to them and they were very willing to listen. The doctor in the detention center measured my blood
pressure. I thought, "Let it be high." As a result, it was terribly high. I was
released that afternoon. The police officer who saw me off said, "It took great
effort to bring you in here. Then your Teacher assigned us to take you back
home." The next day I went back to the detention center to get back my 40 Yuan
they had confiscated. The guard said I was stingy. I said, "Dafa practitioners
all earn their money with honest, hard work. They use this money for saving
lives." He was shocked and returned the money to me. 4. Clarify the truth in the police station and in the city
"610 Office" * Several days later I went back to the police station to ask
to have my books returned to me. I took this opportunity to clarify the truth.
Many practitioners' books that had been confiscated from our township were
locked in a cabinet of this police station. One night several months ago I
brought a cloth bag to the police station. The door was locked from inside. I
remembered that in Zhuan Falun, Chapter 6 Teacher said, "Once her family
members left the house, she would unlock the door just by pointing her fingers
at the lock." I also pointed my finger at the lock and it really opened. I could
not put all the books in one bag, so later another practitioner and I went back
and brought all Dafa books and literature out. Since the police station was just
nearby my home, whenever I had time I went to "bring back the books," and
clarify the truth to the police and those who passed by. I acted according to
Teacher's requirements. With Teacher's reinforcement, I didn't have any
attachment to fear or worry. I sincerely wished them [the officers] well and
sincerely wanted to save them. Later, they said the books were handed over to their
superiors and asked me to get them from the city officers. I went to the
director of city "610 Office" and asked for the books and literature. He said,
"Why do you distribute flyers to society and blame Jiang's group, naming them
political scoundrels?" I said, "They used money to perpetrate the
Self-Immolation Incident to slander our Teacher and Dafa and persecuted Dafa
practitioners. Wouldn't you call this hooliganism? You have our Teacher's books
here. You can read them. They are totally different from what the TV or
newspapers have propagated. Judging by whether you'd like to return the book, we
can also see your attitude towards Falun Gong. It is also an opportunity our
Teacher has given to you." He said, "There are few practitioners like you. Many said
they gave up." I said, "Before the crackdown, millions like me benefited. Now
those who have said they wouldn't practice any more are mostly forced to say so
against their hearts. I suggest, for your eternal life and that of your wife and
children, that you don't persecute Falun Gong any more." I also reminded him of
the principle that goodness and evil reap their own rewards. Later, when I went
out of city hall, hearing that I failed to get the books, the guard gave me
three brochures, which he said were distributed by Falun Gong practitioners last
night. I thanked him and urged him to remember: "Falun Dafa is good!" Teacher, it is you who pulled me out of hell, again and
again, purified me little by little and gave me a new life. Under your merciful
care, what I did is just what a disciple should do. However, you made my Gong
has grown so quickly and let me see some grandiose, beautiful scenes. What can I
do to pay you back? I could only treasure every day, and do even better what a
Dafa disciple should to live up to your mercy and salvation! * The "610 Office" is an agency specifically created to
persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in
the Party and all other political and judiciary systems. Posting date: 5/29/2003 |
