"If More People Are Involved In Falun Gong Practice, Fewer People Will Listen To Jiang's Corrupt Faction"

"If more people are involved in Falun Gong practice, fewer people will listen to them"

One day I ran into a middle school teacher that I had clarified the truth about Falun Gong to before. He asked me if I still practiced Falun Gong. I told him that practicing Falun Gong had made me healthy, both physically and mentally, so how could I stop practicing?

The teacher replied that it was because Falun Gong was so good that Jiang Zemin's regime banned it, because it interfered with his regime. I was confused by this and asked him to explain further.

The teacher said, "Your Teacher has taught you to become a person that follows Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance. Do not strike back if someone beats you! Do not swear back if someone curses at you! Think of others first and look inside yourself when conflicts arise. Quietly, you have become better people. You are on the right track. Look at today's society. People look out only for their own benefit and do not care much about others. Things such as corruption, drugs, and many bad things have led society to deeper levels of degradation. Now, so many people, like you, want to practice Falun Gong. If more people are involved in Falun Gong practice, fewer people will listen to them (Jiang's faction)."

"Now, I know why there are so many people practicing Falun Gong."

By a practitioner from Dalian City

On March 29, 2004, I went to Yuxian County, Henan Province, to visit my relatives. At dinner, several guests tried to make a toast and handed me a cigarette. I politely refused. They asked me why I did not drink or smoke. I told them, "I practice Falun Gong." They were quit surprised. They stopped me and said, "You dare to admit that you are a Falun Gong practitioner. You could get arrested, if we report this to the police."

I told them calmly, "I am not a bad person and haven't done anything wrong. They should not arrest me." Someone asked, "The government has banned Falun Gong, why do you still insist on practicing? What kind of benefits can people or society get from it? "

I replied, "I do not smoke or drink, and I have become very healthy after starting to practice. Our Teacher has taught us to conduct ourselves according to Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance. Do not strike back, if someone hits you. Do not swear back, if someone curses at you. Think of others first and look inside yourself when there is a conflict."

One person stood up, waved his hands to stop me and said, "You don't even need to go any further. The things you have talked about are already very good -- if it just allows people to stop smoking and drinking, and gives them good health, it's already great. Now, I know why there are so many people practicing Falun Gong."
