Media Reports

Mingpao Daily reported on March 1, 2002 that Falun Gong practitioner Lin Shenli was finally released after being detained for two years in a forced labor camp. During a press conference in Toronto, he told the journalists that he had been forced to sit on a very narrow low stool from 7:00 am to 9:00 pm every day; he was often brainwashed by the officials and denied any correspondence with his wife. The Toronto College Students' Administrative Council especially sent a representative to attend the press conference expressing their support to Lin Shenli.

People Who Learned the Truth

From opposition to firm belief - an old professor's spiritual path: Materialism was all that I had learned and taught. Before July 20, 1999, I had practiced Falun Gong exercises but I didn't believe in [the principles of] Falun Dafa. After July 20, 1999, I wrote a criticism [of Dafa], and soon after I was afflicted with cerebral thrombosis and other illnesses. Later, things happened, one after another, which greatly impacted my atheism. Again I started to practice the Falun Gong exercises and study the Fa. I experienced that Teacher's words are true! The Jiang/Luo group's use of base means to brutally persecute Dafa practitioners only made me believe and cultivate Falun Dafa with more determination.

Latest News From China

Today, 124 people published their solemn declarations, expressing deep regrets about their words and actions that don't conform to Dafa. Because they didn't study the Fa deep enough and neglected the seriousness of cultivation under the evil's intimidation and persecution, all of which they had previously claimed are completely void. They will redouble their efforts in making up the loss they caused to Dafa.

Cultivation Stories

One day I happened to pass by a government building and saw that someone had hung some Dafa-slandering pictures in front of the building's gate. I then started to clarify the truth to the people looking at the pictures. I also sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil. I pasted truth clarification materials on the poles of the building. The next day, the slanderous pictures disappeared. Another time, I took away all the slanderous pictures and destroyed them.

My daughter Xuanxuan is 10 years old this year. She got a strange illness two years ago. Even though she had taken various medications, her illness still would not go away. Last summer, my aunt, a Dafa practitioner, told me to teach Xuanxuan to practice Falun Gong. Failing to find cure for Xuanxuan's illness, I agreed to let Xuanxuan learn Falun Gong. Three weeks later, she completely recovered and returned to school. Xuanxuan also helped Teacher eliminate the evil in other dimensions.
