Books Slandering Dafa Are Poisoning the Minds of Our Children

By a Falun Gong practitioner in Linyuan City, Liaoning Province

(Clearwisdom.net) During the night of November 3, 2004, my 12-year-old daughter was reading her textbooks. She asked, "Mom, there is something about Falun Gong on this page, and the teacher said this subject will be in the exam. How I should answer the question?" I answered, "Just answer with 'Falun Dafa is a righteous Way.'" I did not pay further attention to the subject that night.

The next morning I took out my daughter's textbook and read it more carefully. It was an article slandering Dafa and Master. I was shocked! I thought my daughter studied the Fa and sent out righteous thoughts, yet I did not know she was reading books slandering Dafa everyday.

The name of this book was Youth Morality Building Series (higher elementary version, edited by Students' Morality Education Center of Beijing's Future New Century Education and Scientific Institute). The article misinterpreted Zhuan Falun, quoted some content that does not belong to Zhuan Falun and presented it as coming from Zhuan Falun.

This is a textbook provided to students nationwide, from third grader to middle school students. Statistics show that there are currently about 367 million youths in China. So many children are being compelled to go against "Truth, Compassion, Tolerance." What kind of people are they going to grow into?

I decided to write a letter to clarify the truth about Dafa to the editors of this book. In the meantime I exchanged my opinions with fellow practitioners. We agreed that writing a letter to the editors was not enough. We should expose this on the Internet and ask all fellow practitioners to clarify the truth to teachers, students and their parents. We should stop Jiang's faction from poisoning the minds of our children any further!
