The Police Couldn’t Find the Detention Center

(Minghui.org) I’ve practiced Falun Dafa for more than 20 years, but this is the first time I’ve written about my cultivation experiences. I’d like to write a report to Master and share some of my experiences with fellow practitioners.

I’m Fortunate to Start Practicing Falun Dafa

In October 1998, a neighbor told me that her house was a practice site where many people were learning Falun Dafa. She also told me that Dafa taught people to be good. She invited me to come over in the evening.

After a busy day of farm work, I went to her house after dinner. She played the video recording of one of Master’s lectures, which she said a nephew in the U.S. gave her.

I experienced a miracle that night. I suffered from neurasthenia and I had trouble sleeping. But that night, I slept comfortably. It was amazing.

When I learned all five sets of the Dafa exercises, my body felt so light that I felt I was floating when I walked home after the morning exercises. I continued to do the exercises every day, and within two months, all my health problems, including lumbar disc herniation, spondylitis, cervical spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis, and heart disease, were gone. I truly experienced what it felt like to be free of illness!

A neighbor told me, “From your physical and mental state, one can tell that practicing Falun Dafa is good!”

I am so lucky to obtain the Fa. No words can describe how sacred and beautiful the practice is.

Wishing more people would know how amazing Falun Dafa is, practitioners went to the market to tell people about the practice. When we did the exercises at a market, there were many people there. I saw that our practice site was shielded by a red light. That red was not the red color of the human world, and it was transparent. I knew Master was encouraging us.

I Become a Selfless Person

When we were young, my husband and I did not have a great relationship with my in-laws. Rural life involved a lot of farm work, and my in-laws weren’t willing to help by watching our child. They only helped a couple of days when we were extremely busy. I had to bring them many gifts when I brought the child to their home. My husband harbored deep resentment towards his parents because of this, and he would not visit them except during the Chinese New Year holiday.

Falun Dafa teaches us to be good people—so after I started practicing I let go of my negative feelings toward my in-laws and treated them with genuine kindness. When my mother-in-law passed by our house on her way to the clinic for an injection, I invited my in-laws over for meals. I cooked good food for them. My in-laws were very frugal and reluctant to spend money, so I bought them new clothes and food every holiday. Gradually, the relationship between my husband and his parents became increasingly harmonious.

When my mother-in-law fell ill and was hospitalized I volunteered to take care of her. She stayed in the hospital for more than 20 days, and I was there most of the time. She couldn’t get out of bed after the injections, and I helped her use the bathroom. I brought her a lot of delicious food. During this period, one of my sisters-in-law took over for two days. On the third day, when I arrived at the hospital, my mother-in-law told her daughters to go home, saying I was the one who knew how to take care of her. Seeing that she preferred me to stay, I alone took care of her for more than 20 days. Afterwards my mother-in-law praised me, saying, “My oldest daughter-in-law is so good, so filial, and she’s such a good person.”

My sister-in-law also respected me and bought me clothes. “Of all the sisters-in-law in the family, my eldest sister-in-law is the best,” she told others.

If I did not practice Falun Dafa, I absolutely could not do this. It was Dafa that shaped me into a selfless person.

The Police Couldn’t Find the Way to the Detention Center

In 1999, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) launched the persecution against Falun Dafa. The CCP’s lies were everywhere, so practitioners began to tell people the truth about Dafa.

Someone reported me when I was gluing up Dafa informational posters. I was taken to the township police station, where I was tortured. A group of four or five policemen tied my legs to a tiger bench and my arms were handcuffed to the back of a chair. I was tied up in this position from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and I was unable to move. However, I did not feel any discomfort. It felt like I was sitting in a double lotus position and my hands were resting on top of each other in front of my lower abdomen. I tried to move my hands, and I found they were still tied up behind me. After a short time, it felt like my hands were resting in front of my lower abdomen again. It was unbelievable! I knew merciful Master endured everything for me.

When the police interrogated me, I clarified the truth to them.

“You have a good reputation in the village. Everyone says you are a good person,” one officer said.

“You know I’m a good person,” I responded. “So why did you arrest me?”

“Because you’re so persistent.”

“Isn’t it a good thing if I’m persistent in being a good person?” I continued. “We are good people who are being persecuted. As you know, those officials, small and big, are all extremely corrupt. You still want to follow their orders?

“Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is heaven’s law. Anyone who opposes it is going against the will of heaven!”

At the moment, a fierce looking director came in. “Who is interrogating whom? Get her down and take her to the detention center!” he grunted.

As soon as they untied me, I headed to the restroom. When the police saw I walked with ease they were surprised. One said, “Even a young man wouldn’t be able to walk after being tied up like this for nine hours! What’s going on with her?”

I thought, Master strengthened me! I sent righteous thoughts on the way to the detention center. “Are you doing the Falun Dafa exercise?” a young policeman asked.

“I’m sending righteous thoughts,” I answered. “You won’t be able to put me in the detention center.”

They really couldn’t find the way. They drove around in circles, going back and forth three times, but they still couldn’t find the way.

“What trick are you using?” asked the young policeman who was driving. “I attended a college in this city for four years. I should be able to find the way with my eyes closed!”

“I don’t believe it! Let me try,” another policeman said as he took over. He drove very slowly, frequent stopped and checked the road. Eventually, it took the police six hours to drive to the detention center, while it usually took less than three hours.

It was midnight by the time we arrived. The guard at the detention center gate refused to accept me. The police were finally able to contact the detention center head and he asked if I had undergone the required physical exam. The policemen said I had.

“The blood test results haven’t come out yet. They won’t be available until 7 tomorrow morning,” I said.

When the detention center leader heard this, he was angry and scolded the policemen. “I won’t take her! Go back!”

So, with Master’s protection, I was back home safely.

I’ve repeatedly been arrested while telling people about Dafa. I would not be here today if Master did not protect and strengthen me. I will continue to cultivate well, and follow Master home.
