Solemn Declarations of Falun Dafa Practitioners
(Clearwisdom.net) Solemn DeclarationsOn the evening of January 7, 2002, I was taken away by five policemen and
held in the local police station for two days before being moved to a detention center. During my
detention, I was asked to disclose information about my fellow practitioners, and I refused to do
it. As a result, I was jailed for four months. Then I was sent to a forced labor camp for a year and
a half. When I was at the forced labor camp, two inmates watched me around the clock; they did not
allow me to sleep. I had to stand by the window and recite the rules and regulations of the camp.
After several nights of torture, my legs were swollen and my back was hurting. On the afternoon of
May 15, three collaborators* tried to brainwash me. They also tried to force me to write a
"Dissociation Statement."** If I refused, I would be deprived of sleep again. I had
already been deprived of sleep, my mind was not clear, and I just could not endure the torture any
longer. I did something I should not have done. I wrote the so-called "Dissociation
Statement." They then started brainwashing me, making me read and watch defamatory
materials, videotapes, CDs, and write what I think about them. I was forced to defame Master Li and
Falun Dafa. The more we defamed, the more thorough the brainwashing was considered to be. The third
step was to use commuted sentences to trap us. Practitioners were forced to be brainwashed,
otherwise they would be subjected to beatings. Every day, screams of pain were heard from
practitioners. Witnessing the bruises and cuts on the faces of my fellow practitioners and enduring
dozen of hours a day of hard labor, I could not stand it anymore. A day felt like a year. I hereby
solemnly declare that what I said and wrote that is unfitting of a Falun Dafa practitioner is null
and void. I will cultivate myself firmly and redouble my efforts to make up for the loss I inflicted
on Falun Dafa. Yin Juxiang * Collaborators are former Falun Gong practitioners who have
turned against Dafa due to brainwashing and torture. ** "Dissociation Statement" is a statement to declare dissociation from Falun Gong
and a promise not go to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong.]. July 9, 2003. Chinese version available at http://www.minghui.ca/mh/articles/2003/9/30/58156.html Solemn Declaration The police ransacked my home in August 2002. The police took away all my Falun Dafa books. I was
taken to a brainwashing center twice and did something that was unfit of a Falun Dafa practitioner.
I gave out information about fellow practitioners and wrote the "Three Statements"* á Although I was reluctant to do it, it was betrayal and insult to Falun Dafa. After I returned
home, I was so ashamed of myself that I could not bring myself to meet with other practitioners.
Thanks to the benevolence of Master Li and the help of my fellow practitioners, I learned a lot from
these painful lessons. I did not read the Fa at a rational level; I only read at a perceptual level.
I treated studying the Fa as accomplishing a task. I did not use the Fa to break through my
attachments and the lies of the evil. I did not use the Fa to strengthen my righteous thoughts. This
is all because I did not study the Fa well. I now solemnly declare that my signature on the Three Statements and all else I did that was
unfitting of Falun Dafa is null and void. I have to follow Master Li steadfastly and diligently,
always keeping my mind clear, do the three things well, walk my final steps of cultivation firmly,
and become a fit practitioner to make up for the loss I brought to Falun Dafa. Han Suyuan Falun Dafa practitioner * The "Three Statements" - Practitioners are coerced under brainwashing and
torture to write these as proof that they have given up their belief. Created by the "610
Office," the three statements consist of a letter of repentance, a guarantee to never again
practice Falun Gong, and a list of names and addresses of all family members, friends and
acquaintances who are practitioners. September 2003 Chinese version available at http://www.minghui.ca/mh/articles/2003/10/5/58432.html |
