(Clearwisdom.net) The Jiang regime's political persecution against Falun Gong in Hong Kong using so-called "legal" means has drawn much attention and scrutiny from people with a sense of justice around the world.

From the video footage and physical evidence, it is quite clear that the peaceful appeal conducted by Dafa practitioners in Hong Kong, safeguarding the universal principle of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance," is a pure and compassionate act. This persecution that was imposed upon Falun Gong practitioners should not have happened in the first place. It is the Hong Kong police, who used violence to disrupt the peaceful appeal, that should be charged with a crime.

The persecution of Falun Gong in Hong Kong by the old forces is an overseas extension of the persecution initiated by Jiang's regime. It is also a comprehensive examination of Dafa practitioners as a whole body in the face of this evil test. During this battle between righteousness and evil, we should immediately break through the state of feeling numb and helpless due to the fact that we are located in different regions and we have different tasks at hand. We should clearly recognize that this is not a persecution of people against people; instead, this is caused by the old forces' controlling the people of this world to commit evil deeds. As Dafa disciples, we should display a cultivator's dignity and compassion in clarifying the truth, exposing the evil, and improving ourselves in the process. The evil will then no longer have an excuse to continue the persecution, and the wicked people will thus lose what is sustaining and controlling them from behind the scenes.

Yesterday, practitioners in Ottawa, Canada held a press conference. They concluded from their experiences and understandings that we should immediately break through all human notions, such as feeling that it is useless to hold press conferences and to appeal in front of Chinese consulates and embassies. This is because human notions will obstruct us from considering the Hong Kong trial based on the Fa . Our sending out press releases to the media is in itself a part of the process to clarify the truth. As a matter of fact, using the photos and video footage at hand (showing how Hong Kong police used violence against practitioners) can effectively expose the villainous face of the evil's persecution against Falun Gong practitioners completely.

The Hong Kong "trial" has been postponed repeatedly, and the final "hearing" will be held on August 5. Is this awaiting our improvement as a whole body, to have a clear understanding of the situation based on the Fa, to put the Dafa at the most important position at all times, and to give us the opportunity to completely deny the old forces' arrangement with our righteous thoughts and righteous actions?

Each opportunity will not be offered for a second time.

Let all of us practitioners everywhere take action immediately. Using our righteous thoughts and righteous actions, through the media and other means and from wherever we are, let us clarify the truth to the people of Hong Kong, expose the evil and offer salvation to sentient beings. The goal of the old forces is to ruin all sentient beings; in fact, what the evil fears the most is being exposed.
