Practicing Falun Gong with Righteous Thoughts
From a Dafa practitioner in Jilin Province
(Clearwisdom.net) Deceived for Five Years, Practicing Falun Gong after Realizing the Truth A practitioner's sister was deceived by Jiang's policies against Falun Gong
after the April 25th event* in 1999. Rather than supporting her sister in
practicing Falun Gong as she did in the old days, she began to go the other
direction, and even stated that she was against Falun Gong. Although the
practitioner continued telling her sister the facts about Falun Gong for years,
due to the effect of all the lies that were misleading people, her sister
hesitated and was doubtful about whatever the practitioner said to her. Later, she went to Japan and saw with her own eyes that Falun Gong was widely
known in Japan and that the practice of Falun Gong had given people a wonderful
life. She became extremely angry at the fact that Jiang and his followers had
lied on such a grand scale. In the meantime, she began to understand Falun Gong
practitioners and the practice. A couple of days ago, she called the practitioner in China from Japan. On the
phone, she was very emotional and said, "You have kept a strong faith and
practiced Falun Gong even under such inhumane persecution; you are great! I am
calling not only to express my understanding and to support your persistence,
but to tell you that I will also start practicing Falun Gong now." One Difference in Thought Leads to Two Different Results One day, while three practitioners were on their way to some activities to
clarify the truth to the public, police discovered them and pursued with several
police cars. The practitioners decided to drive faster so that they could get
away from the police. Under this critical circumstance, one practitioner said
calmly, "We can escape this as long as we trust our Master and send forth
righteous thoughts." However, the other two disagreed, "It looks like it is
impossible to escape." As soon as they said this, the car engine suddenly died.
Several police came, grabbed them from the car and tried to push them into a
police car. Two were pushed into the police car and the other one did not let go
of the door. As a result, his pants were pulled off, leaving only his underwear.
The practitioner shouted firmly, "Let go off me. I need to put my pants back
on." The police had to let go of him for a while. He pulled his pants back on
right away and ran over 60 feet away while the police were still hesitating. Two
policemen blamed each other and several policemen started to chase him. He ran
into an open area, hid in a pipe, and began to send forth righteous thoughts. As
a result, he successfully escaped the police. Three practitioners were in the same situation, and one difference in thought
led to two completely different results. As of today, the two practitioners are
still in a detention center and under persecution. On the other hand, the one
who escaped from the police chase using righteous thoughts is once again
involved in Fa-rectification work. * April 25th event: This refers to the peaceful gathering of 10,000 Falun
Gong practitioners in Zhongnanhai on April 25th, 1999 to appeal
against the illegal and violent arrest of practitioners in Tianjin earlier in
the week. During the event, Falun Gong practitioners simply waited or meditated
peacefully. They did not interfere with traffic and did not raise any slogans or
banners. The event ended peacefully after a meeting with former Premier Zhu
Rongji. Jiang Zemin, former president and the dictator behind the persecution of
Falun Gong, would later use this incident to frame Falun Gong as having
'political motives'.
