Master Is Watching Over Me at All Times

(Minghui.org) I would like to share my experience after having been arrested and held at a detention center for 10 days. I feel grateful for Master’s protection and enlightenment in helping me to get out of there and to return home safely.

Treating Police Officers with Compassion

During the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) “Two Congressional Sessions” in March 2023, someone reported me for distributing information about the persecution of Falun Dafa. Such informants are often misled by the CCP’s slanderous propaganda.

That morning, I heard someone knocking on the door. I opened it and saw five officiers: three in plainclothes and two in uniform, one of them female. A male officer showed his ID and said, “We’re from the police station. Do you know why we’re looking for you?”

When I said I didn’t, they asked which room was mine. I said, “For us to meet today comes down to our great predestined relationship. If you treat Falun Dafa practitioners kindly, you’ll be blessed by the divine and protected from calamity. As they say, ‘Providing a meal for monks is better than building a seven-story pagoda.’”

I then sent forth righteous thoughts to “Eliminate the dark minions, rotten demons and the evil specter of the CCP controlling these officers” and that, even if they confiscated my Dafa-related items, they couldn’t be used as evidence to persecute me because they were for clarifying the truth and saving people.

One of the plainclothes officers who found a copy of Minghui Weekly asked, “Don’t you also have Pure Insight?”

He said he had read some articles on the Pure Insight website and explained that the practitioners they’d dealt with for over two decades were truly great people. I was delighted to hear that. This was due to practitioners who made the effort to clarify the facts to those police officers.

I was at my daughter’s house, because my husband was in the hospital due to excessive bleeding from bladder stone surgery. They wanted to take me away, but I said I had to pick up my grandson from school that afternoon. They forced me to go with them anyway. After I got into their vehicle, I called out, “Master, please save your disciple. I’m in trouble. Please also save these pitiful police officers. They don’t know the truth. We can’t let them commit any crimes by persecuting practitioners.”

On the way to the police station, I heard a voice whispering, “Since you’re here, make the most of it” and Master’s Fa came to mind:

“Great enlightened beings fear no hardshipTheir will is cast of diamondLife or death, they have no attachmentForthright and broad-minded on the road of Fa-rectification”(“Righteous Thought, Righteous Action,” Hong Yin II)

I was so touched. I knew it was Master protecting and encouraging me. I would not let him down. Since I came to this world, I was here to help save people. I wanted to spread the truth to those who had a predestined relationship and share my personal account to validate the miraculous nature of Dafa!

At the station, the officers took my photo for AI facial recognition and recorded our conversation. They printed out my name, age, and home address and asked me to read what was on the page. I refused to cooperate and didn’t open my eyes. One officer said, “If you don’t open your eyes, I’ll pry them open.”

I thought to myself, “If you dare to resort to violence, you’d be committing a crime.”

Domestic Security Division officers interrogated me and threatened to put me on an iron chair. I said, “I won’t sit there. That’s for prisoners. I’m a good person!”

A young police officer said, “Work with me.” I sat there feeling truly insulted.

I then recited one of my Master’s poems:

“The sky collapses, the earth overturns, sand and dust fallPoisoning the human world, several hundred million peopleWho knows how many compassion rescues and savesEverywhere in the Central Plains, more new graves”(“Washing Away,” Hong Yin Vol. II)

I told the officers that 400 million people died in China during the pandemic and that it was the result of good people being persecuted.

One of the officers asked me how many years I’d practiced Falun Dafa. When I told him, “Twenty years,” he asked me why.

“Because I suffered from depression. I went to many doctors, but neither Chinese nor Western medicine could cure me. I didn’t want to live anymore. But after reading Zhuan Falun, my depression miraculously lifted. By practicing, my stomach problems, gynecological disease, and skin allergies have also been cured,” I explained.

I couldn’t help crying as I said, “It was Master Li who cured me without charging me a penny, giving me a healthy body and a harmonious family. He protected my daughter when she was hit by a car. My gratitude to him cannot be expressed in words!”

I then said repeatedly, “I cannot cooperate with you. I cannot cooperate with you.”

When I finished speaking, I opened my eyes and saw that the young police officer was gone and the interrogator was wiping tears from his eyes. I calmed down, and the young police officer came back in. He asked me again, “Who gave you those informational materials?”

“I have the right to freedom of belief and freedom of speech. Can I not answer you?” “Of course.” He replied. Then, whatever he asked me next, I refused to answer.

That afternoon, five officers took me to the Public Security Hospital for a check-up. While we waited in line, I asked a plainclothes officer, “Are you from the Domestic Security Division or the Public Security Bureau?”

“What do you think?”

“You police officers work so hard! Look how tired you must be holding up that camera. Please put it down. You haven’t even had lunch yet; though it’s late, you can’t go home either.” He seemed embarrassed.

When he asked me, “Have you been vaccinated?” I told him I hadn’t. He then asked, “Have you ever tested positive?” I also said no.

I explained that practitioners were safeguarded by divine beings. We were able to eliminate viruses, and we spoke with positive energy. Their test results also turned out to be negative.

Firming Up My Belief to Stand Up for Dafa

After we left the hospital, it was already dark. When I looked up into the sky, I felt immense gratitude and said, “Master, you are watching over your disciple at all times. I must do well and be worthy of your saving grace.”

After they took me to the detention center, the officers were about to leave when I said, “You took me here, but this is not the place for me. Now is the time to position yourself. What you did is unjust, unjust, unjust!”

The detention center was surrounded by high walls and was heavily guarded. The nighttime air was chilly and eerie, and it felt like I had entered a demonic den. A guard asked me, “Why are you here?” I said, “Faith!” He exclaimed, “Oh okay, another faith.”

It was past 10 o’clock when I was taken to Cell 11. The prisoners were all asleep. The squad leader said, “Sleep on the board.” After a day of hassle, I wasn’t thirsty or hungry. I tossed and turned all night.

During the meal the next day, I talked to an inmate who was also a practitioner. We worked together to send forth righteous thoughts: “Eliminate the evil beings and factors in Beijing detention centers.”

When a female guard interrogated me, she pulled out my younger daughter’s file and said, “How beautiful your younger daughter is. But you practice Dafa, so wouldn’t she have trouble finding a boyfriend?”

I replied, “Everyone has their own fate, which is arranged by divine beings.”

She said, “Your husband is sick in the hospital, but you neglected him to hand out informational materials somewhere else.”

I then sent righteous thoughts to eliminate the dark minions and evil specters of the CCP so she would stop talking nonsense and commiting crimes against Dafa.

In the afternoon, a male guard asked me, “The government doesn’t allow you to practice Dafa, so why would you still do it?”

“Because I had depression and many other illnesses before, and none of them could be cured by modern medicine. But all of them were cured after I began practicing Dafa. I haven’t had to take any medicine for the past 20 years.”

When he asked me not to practice anymore, I replied, “Falun Dafa is a cultivation method for both mind and body. It not only improves one’s moral values but also helps one’s physical health. I will to dedicate myself to practicing it!”

On the third day, the guard said, “If you agree to write the guarantee statement to give up cultivation, then we’ll release you. If you want to continue to practice at home, that’s fine.”

I replied, “No, I won’t. I will not go against my belief!”

She then exclaimed, “If you refuse, then everyone in the cell will be punished by being made to sit on the board!”

When the inmates heard about being punished on the board, they began to swear at me. I said, “Take it easy. I will not impact you.”

Inmates Say Practitioners Are Extraordinary

On the fourth day, because I refused to write the “repentance letter,” I sat on the board next to a believer in God. Except for eating and sleeping, we sat on the board all day. We had to ask one of the guards whenever we had to use the toilet. This person couldn’t sit still and summoned the guard frequently. She walked with a limp, which made everyone laugh. She told me, “People like you who practice Dafa are truly extraordinary!”

An older woman put her index fingers and thumbs together to form a heart shape on her chest and said, “You’re very determined!” Afterward, she gave me a thumbs up and exclaimed, “You’re an excellent student!”

Master Enlightens Me

I didn’t sleep the first three days. There were all kinds of people detained there: online scammers, thieves, murderers, and even people with STDs. It was really diverse, and they were all young. Seeing the state of their lives was truly pitiful. The male and female guards were so controlled by evil specters that they had lost touch with their humanity. Their personalities had become twisted, their expressions were vicious, and they always spoke in raised voices.

The environment was truly a living hell, and every day felt like an eternity. If it wasn’t for Master’s protection and empowerment, it would have been very hard for me to endure it.

On the fourth night, I had a dream. As someone was taking a picture of me, an old man patted my back and said, “They can’t catch you! It seems that they have nothing else to do.” He also said, “But everyone at home knows!”

Only after I returned home did I find out that practitioners in the entire county had been sending righteous thoughts for me. I was deeply moved. Thank you for empowering me with your righteous thoughts!

On the morning of the seventh day, I suddenly heard magpies chirping in the sky above the detention center. I thought, “This is a good omen!” Suddenly, someone called my name and said, “Pack up your things.” I was elated. I couldn’t believe this was happening. While packing my stuff, I kept thinking to myself, “Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!” I waved goodbye to my cellmates, including the fellow practitioner.

At that moment, I felt taller and walked like a breeze.

When I went outside, I saw five police officers waiting. One of them in plainclothes said, “We saw you from a distance. How come you seem so energetic?” I replied, “The gods and Buddhas are protecting me.”

He said, “We still need to keep you in the detention center for three more days. We’ll release a group of people on the tenth, and you can go home then.”

On the tenth, my daughter came to pick me up.

In comparing myself with the standards of Master’s Fa, I reflected seriously on the reasons I was arrested. It all came down several attachments, including my attachment to doing things, anxiety, a desire to reach consummation, resentment, jealousy, saving face, and fear.

The fact that I held onto my human thoughts and sentimentality was seized upon by the old forces. I had also lost a lot of weight, my vision was blurry, and I was dealing with severe hair loss. I came to enlighten to the fact that I didn’t pay attention to Fa-study, nor did I sincerely cultivate on the basis of the Fa’s principles. I only went through the motions, so the old forces took advantage of my loopholes.

After I located my attachments, I paid more attention to Fa-study. I also put more emphasis on sending righteous thoughts. After my xinxing improved, my vision improved, and I stopped losing hair. I also got rid of my anxiety about doing things.
