The lawsuit against Jiang and the "610 Office" best exposes, by means of the law, the crimes of Jiang and his "610 Office", similar in form and function to a Nazi, Gestapo-style agency [specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems]. It is not hard to imagine that ever since the day that the complaint was lodged, Jiang has been restless. During his personal visit to the U.S., a chance that he had begged for and dreamed of for so long, he was confronted by those whom he had persecuted and their family members.
This is a great opportunity for us to clarify the truth of Falun Dafa to people around the world. Let's use legal procedures to expose this dictator's humiliating crimes and thus reveal its viciousness to all the governments and people of the world.
I would like to share my opinions with fellow practitioners regarding how we can make best use of this opportunity.
1. Have a right attitude towards this matter
This is not merely a lawsuit, but is one of the vital actions taken by Falun Dafa practitioners who are as Teacher writes, "in control of Heaven and Earth, rectifying the human realm" (from Teacher's Poem "The Foretelling"). The fact that we lodged a complaint, open and aboveboard, in a federal court of a foreign country, against the head of the evil at its post for the crimes it has committed in persecuting people who practice Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance, really shocked Jiang and his accomplices. Jiang himself does not dare to swagger around outside of China anymore because wherever he goes he could be arrested as a result of local lawsuits. Upon his arrival a just sentencing will await this head of the evil, who is against humankind.
2. The evil will spare no effort in intervening with the government and people of the country where the complaint was lodged
Lodging a complaint against Jiang is only the beginning of this round of eliminating the evil. The battle between good and evil is still going on. Teacher told us at the Fa-Conference in Philadelphia, "overall, in other dimensions the strength of the evil and the strength of the righteous are no longer in balance. The strength of the righteous has tipped the scales in its favor as far as they go. Those evil beings can't hold up now. The wicked people in the world might seem so evil, but that's actually just arranged by the old forces. I've said before that the evil won't stop persecuting even right up until the very end. Even if it's going to end tomorrow, today that evil will still do evil just the same. That's the way things are in the cosmos before the Fa-rectification is done rectifying it. Without going through Fa-rectification it won't become good on its own--how could it turn good without Fa-rectification? Poison is just poisonous, and if you want it to stop being poisonous it can't do that. So when you look at it that way, we shouldn't have any fantasies about the evil forces and those evil people who are persecuting Dafa." Jiang's regime won't give up easily. It will surely attempt to implicate more people and nations, and it will try every possible means to put pressure on the U.S. government and any government that lodges a complaint against it. It will even relentlessly drag the U.S. government and governments of other countries with it to hell, as they did to Iceland, making them give in by means of economics, politics, relations between the two countries, and international affairs etc., and also making them go against their own principles, which established their countries, against basic human rights, and against the will of their own people. Thus, they will position themselves and their nations in harm's way. If such things occur, these governments will become the victims of Jiang's evil scheme and the vicious suppression.
3. Treat all sentient beings with compassion and clarify the truth to all governments and people that may be involved in the lawsuit
Bear this in mind, our task is to clarify the truth in depth to all governments and people who may get involved in the lawsuit, so that these governments, government officials, judicial systems, human rights organizations, parliaments, and members of parliaments are clear about why we lodged the complaint against Jiang and the "610 Office." Also, they need to understand with what crimes we are charging Jiang and the "610 Office," and what articles these charges are legally based on, as well as why they should know the truth, support the lawsuit, and speak out for the injustice and persecution in China. When people choose to stand by justice and denounce Jiang's regime, we have already won the lawsuit since we have defeated the attempt of the old forces to destroy more governments and people.
We can contact professionals in law schools and human rights organizations for suggestions and get their support by clarifying the truth to them. Support is one effective way to influence society, and a manifestation of whether we have done enough to clarify the truth in depth as well.
4. Break through the old forces' arrangements and deny the old forces themselves with our righteous thoughts
Since we need the laws in the human world to uphold justice, we should have a right attitude towards laws in human society. Legal procedures can definitely solve some problems concerning right and wrong. And we can clarify the truth to people in the human world by using the principles of human society.
However, when the old forces were arranging everything, they might have mixed the principle of mutual-generation and mutual-inhibition, which is part of the principles in the old universe, into human society. Therefore, simply following the normal procedures of the law may not achieve our goal of Fa-rectification. For instance, political elements, relations between two nations, and international affairs go beyond laws. It actually allows the guilty president of a country to escape from the punishment of laws. In fact, only autocrats like Jiang, who have usurped state power and are capable of brutally persecuting people who practice Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance with their power, should be strictly monitored and punished by the law.
Thus, we should make full use of means of justice in human society but should not be attached to purely technical procedures. Everything we do today while the Fa-rectification is on its way to the human world is touching what's fundamental in deeper dimensions. Therefore we are not required to learn the details of skills but rather to learn to control the direction and progress in general with our wisdom so that we won't be confined by everyday people's habits and rigid procedures. Sometimes, we are used to giving up trying to think, treating Fa-rectification work as a bunch of technical issues and leaving it totally to professionals. Once the technical process encounters something new, the problem cannot be solved. As practitioners, we should not only realize the nature of an occurrence like this with our righteous thoughts, but we should also constrain the evil and eliminate the degenerated things by using our wisdom, which the Fa has bestowed upon us, and by "Using At Will" (title of Teacher's poem) the good things in the human world.
5. Not attached to anything in the human world
We have learned some good lessons from leaders in China who were positive toward Dafa in the past and who were taken advantage of by the evil later on. So, the right way for us to participate in the lawsuit, from the standpoint of Fa-rectification, is to make full use of our time to clarify the truth, deny the arrangements of the old forces, deny the old forces themselves, and direct our Dafa work actively and flexibly. Our unmovable righteous thoughts will decide the results of this case. Through this lawsuit, our improvement as a whole is very important. We will become more rational and experienced.
6. The importance of our participation as a whole to the overall situation
After reading the article from Clearwisdom Net on December 30, "Some Thoughts I had about the Lawsuit Against Jiang Zemin" (http://minghui.ca/mh/articles/2002/12/30/41931.html), I have the same feeling about the participation of all practitioners as one body. Being conscious as a whole is very important for us, especially regarding issues influencing the overall situation of Fa-rectification. When an important thing appears, we should form a definite and solid body as a whole, but avoid one-sided understandings of "participation as a whole," in which either nobody shows concern or all practitioners step up at the same time, we should not go to extremes or create formalities. For example, some things need the participation of all practitioners, some need us to participate as much as possible, and some need a few of us to participate while other practitioners keep sending forth righteous thoughts to assist. Only in this way can we control the overall situation, encompassing everything and leaving out nothing. No matter what the forms of participation are, all practitioners should have righteous thoughts as individuals and as parts of the whole body, thus merging into the field of righteous thoughts as a whole and doing well independently with the part that has something to do with oneself.
The magnificent stream of Fa-rectification is manifested by practitioners all over the world striving diligently forward in cultivation practice and in clarifying the truth to people around the world. At the same time as we thoroughly expose Jiang's crimes, we can also act on other lawsuit activities and eliminate the evil on a large scale. For every activity involved with the lawsuit, we can make the evil's aides realize that the fact that their leader is being punished by the law means that their own time is not far away. As long as the evil continues to move forward, it will fall into this open net.
7. Spread the truth through various forms of media
Media is an important field. Media work directly influences people from all walks of life in society including policemen, judges, VIPs and ordinary people. We should make use of this lawsuit and once again clarify the truth in depth to the media, at the same time we can publicize the lawsuit and expose Jiang's crimes to the entire world.
At the same time, we should mail CDs to mainland China so that more Chinese people can know about this lawsuit against the head of the evil. If the CD is well-made, people will actively copy it and spread it.
We will systematically make public Jiang's crimes on special websites, and welcome all Chinese people to submit their articles for publication. Then we will spread them on a large scale to China until it is known by every household and by all the people who oppose this vicious suppression from the bottom of their hearts.
The evil wishes to quietly put an end to this lawsuit. The more we expose it, the more scared the evil will be.
