I. Entering Russia

When I was passing through customs in a Russian airport, the customs officer studied my face, comparing it with the photos on my passport and visa. When he glanced at the computer he became greatly astonished, shaking his head when staring at the passport and the visa. It seemed that he did not believe what he had seen. Then, he grabbed the telephone, probably calling for a higher authority.

According to my last experience of not being able to enter Hong Kong, I knew that the evil political regime had sent a blacklist through their computer system. When I was held at Hong Kong customs last time, I did not know about sending forth righteous thoughts. I thought that if they would not let me enter, I would expose their deeds to the media. When I recalled that experience, I realized that I misused the principle in personal cultivation of"following the course of nature" for the Fa-rectification. As a result, my actions complied with the arrangement of the old forces. That's why I was not able to enter Hong Kong and got sent back. This time, I thought that I did not go there to be sent back, but to enter Russia to protest peacefully against the head of evil, who is persecuting Falun Gong. At the same time, I wanted to send forth righteous thoughts in close proximity to eliminate the evil in other dimensions which controlled the most vicious person in the world. Therefore, no one could stop me. The computers were for detecting bad people, not good Falun Gong practitioners.

So I sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil that controlled the computer system, making the old forces that had arranged this change their positions. If they insisted on their arrangements, which have deviated from Fa, they would be eliminated. I also sent forth righteous thoughts to make the systems that detected Falun Gong practitioners out of order. Then, I saw the young Customs officer calling agitatedly. He called again and again, shaking his head, but dared not glance at me. Ten or twenty minutes passed; he still did not receive a reply from his superior. At last, he helplessly shook his head, and applied two stamps to my passport. He dared not look at me, and gave me my passport and visa without raising his head. I sent a thought to him: "You did the right thing. We are good people, and we will bring the goodness of Dafa to the kind Russian people."

Several days later, we flew to Iceland, departing from Frankfurt, Germany. At the customs in Iceland, we four American practitioners were taken aside. They asked us to sign a paper written in English, so that we could enter the country. Written on the paper was something about obeying the Icelandic laws, not holding banners when Jiang was in Iceland, not shouting slogans etc. At the beginning, one practitioner and I did not agree to sign, but the policeman said that we could not enter the country if we did not sign. Another practitioner signed, saying that it was OK because we had just gone there to send forth righteous thoughts. So we unwillingly signed our names, too.

After passing through customs, I felt very bad. How could I sign my name under the name of the head of the evil? We came here for human rights, but lost this upon our arrival. Wasn't this a compromise with the evil? I told another practitioner that I thought I should not have signed. She agreed with me immediately. Thus, the three of us went to the policeman and asked him to return the papers we had just signed. He did not give them to us and soon more policemen came. I told a new police officer that I would obey the Icelandic laws. He smiled and nodded his head. I continued saying that I could not sign the papers because I had nothing to do with the dictator, Jiang. If they insisted that we should sign the papers to pass to through customs, then they were the ones who were violating Icelandic laws, not us. He nodded and discussed with the previous policeman for a moment. Then, he told us that the policeman went to get the papers so we could erase that sentence.

One practitioner told me that when she was doing the exercise of "Holding the Wheel" in Russia, her celestial eye saw many people on the ground climbing up a ladder, but still many stayed on the ground. At that moment, she felt her compassion become greater. She said that the practitioners in China who chose an evil path did not willingly go down that wrong road at first, but faced with the oppression of the evil, they did not keep righteous thoughts until the end. Her words helped me to enlighten.
