Falun Dafa Practitioners' Solemn Declarations
(Clearwisdom.net) Solemn Declaration I obtained the Fa and started cultivation in 1997. My
illnesses were all cured and my bad temper also improved. My colleagues, friends
and relatives said: "Falun Gong is really good." After July 20, 1999 when the persecution of Dafa started and
Teacher was slandered, I stepped forward to safeguard Dafa and clarify the truth
to the world. However, since I did not cultivate and practice diligently, I did
not have a deep understanding of the Fa. I behaved like an ordinary person and
could not eliminate my attachments. From 1999 to 2001, while imprisoned in a
labor camp, due to the attachment of fear I lost direction and enlightened along
an evil path. As a result I was brainwashed. I wrote the humiliating "guarantee
letter", "three statements", "five understandings and exposition or repentance
materials". Thanks to Teacher's great compassion, I was given one chance after
another. Also thanks to my fellow practitioners' enthusiastic help, care and
encouragement, I found the courage to pick up Dafa books, identified the root of
my mistakes, and came back to Dafa. Although I knew that Dafa was good, I did
not closely follow the requirements of Dafa and did not get rid of my
attachments. Even as I stepped forward physically to validate Dafa, in my heart
I was taking the standpoint of an ordinary person. During tribulations, I lost
my sense of direction, and the evil made use of my loopholes. Secondly, I did
not understand the relationship between individual cultivation and Fa-rectification
cultivation, and I accepted enlightenment along an evil path, and thus helped
the dictator to commit crimes. From now on, I completely deny everything that I have done
while I was being persecuted by the old forces. To this end, I solemnly declare
as null and void everything I have said and written under pressure since the
persecution started on July 20, 1999, including the so-called "guarantee
letter", "three statements", "five understandings", "exposition and repentance
letter" etc. I will return to Dafa, following Teacher's Fa-rectification process
closely, and eliminating the evil factors in other dimensions with righteous
thoughts. I will re-join the path of Fa-rectification, and shoulder the
responsibilities of a genuine Dafa practitioner. I will redouble my efforts to
try to compensate for all the losses I have brought to Dafa. He Tao June 24, 2003 Translated on November 12, 2003 from
Solemn Declaration
I obtained Dafa in January 1997. Before obtaining the Fa, I had many physical illnesses. After obtaining Dafa, by reading the Fa and doing the exercises, all my illnesses were cured and my Xinxing improved. In the morning on May 14, 2003, seven or eight policemen arrested me and brought me to brainwashing classes, forcing me to write the "Four Statements". Under intense pressure and their mistreatment, and due to my fear and strong attachments, I signed my name to the "Four Statements" prepared by them, causing great losses to Dafa. However, my attitude towards Teacher remained unchanged. Still, I did not pass this tribulation. I now solemnly declare that everything I signed under pressure to be null and void. From now on, I will definitely follow the requirements set by Teacher and Dafa, study the Fa well, make every effort to validate Dafa, save the sentient beings and redouble my efforts to compensate for the losses I have caused Dafa. I will cultivate with determination, all the way to the end.
