My Testimony to the Power of Righteous Thoughts
By Chinese Dafa Practitioner Li Zheng
(Clearwisdom.net) I was fired from my job illegally because I practice Falun Dafa. One day, a member of my family told me that my work unit had phoned and wanted to discuss my
employment. When I went to work the following day, the head of personnel told me that the bureau
chief wanted to talk to me, but he had gone out on errands. He asked me to wait for a while, saying
that someone else wanted to see me. Not long after four policemen came. They said they wanted to go
with me to my home to "have a look" and then talk with me. I said to them, "It's not
necessary to go to my home. If you have something to say, just talk to me here." They did not
agree and threatened, "If you do not cooperate, we'll force you to come with us and take you to
jail." Our Teacher said in his article "Eliminate Your Last Attachment(s)" (Essentials for
Further Advancement II), "Dafa Disciples -- future Buddhas, Daos, and Gods -- how can you let those evil, ridiculous
buffoons take advantage of any gaps?" Afterwards, when I looked inside I found that I had attachments to fame and gain. Of course we
should not allow the old forces to use this as an excuse to commit crimes against Dafa and Dafa
practitioners. I thought of what Teacher had said in his article "Dafa Disciples' Righteous Thoughts are
Powerful" (from Essentials for Further Advancement II), "No matter what the situation, do not cooperate with the evil's demands, orders, or what it
instigates." I steeled my heart and would in no way cooperate with the evil, so none of the evil could touch
me. I also asked Teacher to strengthen me and held the thought that there was no way the evil could
take me away because I have to help Teacher to rectify the Fa (Law and Principles) and save sentient
beings, and I still had not fulfilled the pre-historic vow and the sacred mission. At the same time,
I sent forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil factors behind the policemen. I felt that I
was covered by a shield, and my body seemed frozen. I leaned on the sofa and would not move. I felt
there was and unseen layer of protection more than an inch thick. All the particles inside were
vibrating and the power was very strong. It was as if an extremely powerful energy filled me up,
feeling very comfortable and wonderful. Not long after, the most determined of the police left for other business. I continued to send
forth righteous thought with undivided attention. Every character of the Fa rectification formula
clearly appeared in front of my eyes. At that time, one policeman said, "It would be very good
if the good reputation of Falun Dafa would soon be returned because I don't feel good when I see you
suffer. The truth is, we do not want to do this." After a while, the policeman who had left
came back. He said to me, "We are not going to your home to talk to you any more. We came here
on business, not specifically to see you. It happened that we met you here and what we had said was
just a joke. We will not say anything bad about you in the presence of our boss. If you want to say
anything, just come to the public security bureau, but only after your health has recovered. If
Falun Dafa is really good maybe we will practice ourselves. Now you can go." (Note: Because of
persecution I had received in a forced labor camp, I appeared to be on the verge of death. That's
why I was released on bail for medical treatment. They all were aware of my health condition.) In this way, under our Teacher's compassion and blessing and my righteous thoughts, I shattered
the evil persecution. It was just like what our Teach has said, "Righteous thoughts display the might of Gods".
