The Righteous Thoughts of A Sixty-Year-Old Falun Dafa Practitioner from a Village in China

I am a sixty-year-old woman from a village and I have benefited greatly from practicing Falun Dafa. When the evil forces persecuted Dafa and stopped us from practicing, I put down the concern for my life and death and went to Beijing to rectify Dafa. Despite the great pressure, I knew that Master and Dafa were with me so I had no reason to be afraid.

A month ago, I spoke about something related to cultivation on the phone with a fellow practitioner. It turned out that the police had tapped my phone. They came to my home and forced me into the police car without saying much. At that time there was a lot of Dafa literature and labels in my house, so I sent forth righteous thoughts to block anyone from seeing them. Upon arriving at the police station they interrogated me, trying to find out with whom I was in touch. I was calm and refused to cooperate with the evil. They then asked, "How do you cultivate?" I said, "I practice by sitting on my own and holding truthfulness, compassion and tolerance in my heart and being a good person. That's how I cultivate." Seeing that they could not get anything out of me, they went to search my home. However, they couldn't find anything and had to let me go. But they threatened my husband: "If we catch her again, we will send her to a labor camp." I knew that in front of a determined practitioner, evil is insignificant.

Recently the persecutors committed another crime. They arrested every single Falun Dafa practitioner in my town. Everyone was fined from 1000-3000 RMB (Chinese currency) and was forced to write the so-called "guarantee letter." Otherwise they beat you as if they wanted to kill you. At a little past 10 pm on July 25, a few policemen broke into my home after drinking. I was sleeping. They did not even let me put on any clothes and dragged me out to the police car still in my underwear. Once in the car, they hit and kicked me. After I was knocked down, they pulled me up and hit me again until they reached the government building. (My house is about 2-3 miles from the government building) When I got out of the car, a group of people surrounded me and beat me with sticks. I said to myself, "My life belongs to Dafa, and no one can harm me." I lost consciousness under their cruel beating. When I woke up, I discovered that my whole body was soaked with cold water. I figured they woke me by pouring cold water on me.

The next day they notified my family to pick me up. My daughter told them that they had arrested me for no reason. If I were harmed, she would go after them. The evil people were afraid and sent me home. When I arrived home I realized that my body was covered with bruises from the beating. One of my toes was broken. My family members were very afraid. I told my children, "Don't be afraid of anything. Your mother is going to cultivate righteously and use her life to validate the sacred great Dafa."

I genuinely experienced the power of Dafa and the power of righteous thoughts. I once again experienced that the evil is insignificant.
