Dafa Disciples' Solemn Declarations
(Clearwisdom.net) Solemn Declaration I was so gratified when I obtained Dafa in 1996. I have mostly practised by
myself at home and have had little contact with other practitioners. On July 20th
1999, many practitioners went to Beijing to validate the Fa, yet I did not know
anything about it. It wasn't until February 2001 that a practitioner came to see
me and told me that going to Beijing is what Dafa disciples should do. With the
help of my fellow practitioners, and through repeated study of Master's
articles, I came to understand that I have been too selfish and I have not done
justice for Master. I have attained such a great Fa, and Master has given us so
much, yet when Master was defamed, and Dafa was being persecuted, I was not
moved by it at all, and I felt ashamed. Therefore I have firmly decided that I
will go to Beijing, I will speak the truth for Dafa and Master. So in April
2001, I went to Beijing with a few other practitioners, and called out our
heartfelt messages. "Falun Dafa is good! Restore my Master's
reputation!" Afterwards, I was arrested by the police and was taken back to
my local area. I first refused to write any "Declarative Statements"
to denounce my belief, but I was then unable to break away from my family and
friend's persuasion, and wrote statements promising "not to go to
Beijing." Here, I solemnly declare that these "declarative
statements" and all other writings and actions which are not in accordance
with Dafa totally null and void. I will study the Fa seriously and redouble my
effort to make up for my mistakes. I will redeem the damage that I have caused
for Dafa, and do well in all the things that a Dafa practitioner should do. Shang Shulan September 21, 2003 http://www.minghui.ca/mh/articles/2003/9/23/57803.html Solemn Declaration I began to cultivate Falun Dafa in February 1997. My heart and body have
changed a lot since then. Since the beginning of the persecution in 1999, I have
been very confused and have slacked off in my cultivation, and also had a lot of
interference in my mind. During the end of 2000, I attended an experience
sharing conference and I began to have the thought to go to Beijing to validate
the Fa. Back then, I had a strong attachment when I went to Beijing. When I was
arrested and sent back to the local detention centre, I had strong attachments
and did not want to endure hardship, so I began to enlighten along an evil path.
During the rest of the three months of labor-camp life, I have written many
statements that I should never have done, just for the purpose of escaping from
the evil environment. I know very well that what I wrote was all fake, but I
just couldn't take the hardship. Afterwards, I still did not wake up to it.
Because of the persecution, my family and I have suffered great pressure. I
threw away Dafa books, and even burnt Dafa books. I know Dafa is holy and Master
is the greatest, but, yes, I had too many attachments that made me fall further
and further away from Dafa. During the following two years, cultivation was constantly in my mind, but I
had no courage to come back. In April of this year, I had the opportunity to
read Master's new articles and articles on Clearwisdom. I suddenly understood a
lot. Dafa is solemn, and I have not studied the Fa well and was moved by my
human thoughts. I did not step forward in the most critical moment, and have
wasted so much precious time for cultivation. Here, I solemnly declare that all
the things that I did or said against Dafa are totally null and void. I want to
walk back into cultivation again and grasp the remaining time left to cultivate
myself diligently, and to do well the three things that Master has told us to
do. I will redouble my efforts in making up for the damage I have caused to Dafa. Gong Canfeng September 2003
