Persecutors of Falun Gong Receive Karmic Retribution
(Clearwisdom.Net) Editors' Note: In both Western and Chinese culture, the principle of karmic retribution, that is,
being held ultimately accountable for one's own actions, is widely accepted. The fundamental
teaching of Falun Gong is the characteristic of the universe,
"Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." The universe will reward actions that are in
harmony with this principle, while actions such as beating, torturing and murdering people will
incur karmic retribution. Stated another way, good deeds will be rewarded with good, while
evildoings will meet due karmic retribution. Articles such as this one are meant as a
compassionateáreminder of this principle to those who would commit wrongdoing. While many of
those who persecute Falun Gong are merely "following orders," the universal law requires
that they, too, be held responsible for their actions, and that only by reversing their course of
wrongdoing may they escape karmic retribution. Liu Qinghua, the Deputy Chief Officer of Qianjin Township, Jiaohe City, Jilin Province, played a
major role in the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. On October 18, 2002, he died when his
motorcycle collided with a car. Xu Guobing, a resident of Dongshen Township, Kangpin County, Liaoning Province, asked the village
committee for an assignment to stake out practitioners and eavesdrop on their conversations.
Although he was repeatedly advised by his family members and friends not to do so, he refused to
mend his ways. Recently, he angrily left his home after a quarrel with his wife. He was later found
in the hills by a shepherd and sent to a hospital. Both of his legs and one of his fingers have been
amputated. March 30, 2003 |
